Extended roles for videolayngoscopy

A cost-benefit analysis of training nurses for extended roles.

This study uses a questionnaire to assess the costs and benefits of a course to teach the extended roles of cannulation, venepuncture and intravenous drug administration. The course had a positive influence on nurses' uptake of venepuncture and IV drug administration, but not cannulation. The cost of 916 pounds to successfully train a single nurse in all three practices leads to the suggestion ...

Physiological and Pathological Roles for MicroRNAs: Implications for Immunity Complications

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding regulatory RNAs molecules with a size of approximately 22 nucleotides that are implicated in regulating gene expression at the post-transcriptional regulatory levels. Inflammatory disorders especially autoimmune diseases (ADs) occur from an abnormal immune response of body against cells of their own specific tissues or multiple organ systems leading to ch...

DL-Lite with Attributes and Sub-Roles (Extended Abstract)

The DL-Lite family of description logics has recently been proposed and investigated in [5–7] and later extended in [1, 8, 3]. The relevance of the DL-Lite family is witnessed by the fact that it forms the basis of OWL 2 QL, one of the three profiles of OWL 2 (http://www.w3.org/TR/owl2-profiles/). According to the official W3C profiles document, the purpose of OWL 2 QL is to be the language of ...

Hazard identification by extended multilevel flow modelling with function roles

HAZOP studies are widely accepted in chemical and petroleum industries as the method for conducting process hazard analysis related to design, maintenance and operation of the systems. In this paper, a HAZOP reasoning method based on function-oriented modelling, multilevel flow modelling (MFM) is extended with function roles to complete HAZOP studies in principle. A graphical MFM editor, which ...
