Comparison of risk assessment procedures used in OCRA and ULRA methods
UNLABELLED The aim of this study was to analyse the convergence of two methods by comparing exposure and the assessed risk of developing musculoskeletal disorders at 18 repetitive task workstations. The already established occupational repetitive actions (OCRA) and the recently developed upper limb risk assessment (ULRA) produce correlated results (R = 0.84, p = 0.0001). A discussion of the fac...
متن کاملRisk Assessment for Safe Restart of Anaerobic Digestion Processes
For several years, a 1 m fixed bed anaerobic digestion process has been operated for the treatment of wine distillery wastewater. This reactor has been fully instrumented with the following variables available on-line: pH, temperature, liquid and gas flow rates, gas composition (i.e., CH4, CO2 and H2), concentration of bicarbonate, chemical oxygen demand, total organic carbon, volatile fatty ac...
متن کاملClinical trial design for microarray predictive marker discovery and assessment.
Transcriptional profiling technologies that simultaneously measure the expression of thousands of mRNA species represent a powerful new clinical research tool. Similar to previous laboratory analytical methods including immunohistochemistry, PCR and in situ hybridization, this new technology may also find its niche in routine diagnostics. Outcome predictors discovered by these methods may be qu...
متن کاملA Checklist for Evaluating Exposure to Repetitive Movements of the Upper Limbs Based on the OCRA Index
The OCRA index method is presented elsewhere in this book. In that presentation, it was stated that the OCRA method was a concrete application of a Consensus Document produced by the Technical Group for Musculoskeletal Disorders of the International Ergonomics Association (IEA) (Colombini et al. 2001) and that the OCRA index can be, within definite limits, predictive of the risk of upper limbs ...
متن کاملPredictive Modeling for Risk Assessment of Microbial Hazards
American Meat Science Association Risk assessment models of meat animal production and processing systems have great potential for assisting meat animal producers, meat animal processors, and regulatory agencies in making critical food safety decisions that impact public health. With the advent of computer software programs, such as @Risk (Palisade Corporation, Newfield, NY), that perform simul...
