چکیده
With the possible exception of spinal immobilisation, control of the airway is the first priority in the initial care of the trauma victim. Inability to oxygenate the brain is the fastest killer of the trauma victim. In all the trauma victims oxygen must be administered. Although the principles of airway management are well established, the timing of intervention and which technique to use are influenced by personal experience.

The trauma.org website attempts to ‘promote and disseminate the knowledge and practice of injury prevention and trauma care throughout the world’. The website contains a wealth of information regarding the management of trauma victims, as well as news about upcoming conferences and events in the field. The present review will focus on the ‘moulage’ link, which can be reached from the main traum...
متن کاملBiochemistry and Crystal Structure of Ectoine Synthase: A Metal-Containing Member of the Cupin Superfamily
Ectoine is a compatible solute and chemical chaperone widely used by members of the Bacteria and a few Archaea to fend-off the detrimental effects of high external osmolarity on cellular physiology and growth. Ectoine synthase (EctC) catalyzes the last step in ectoine production and mediates the ring closure of the substrate N-gamma-acetyl-L-2,4-diaminobutyric acid through a water elimination r...
متن کاملDetection of the ectC Gene in Halomonas Strains by Polymerase Chain Reaction
1, 4, 5, 6-Tetrahydro-2-methyl-4-pyrimidine carboxylic acid (ectoine) is an excellent osmoprotectant. Ectoine and hydroxyl ectoines are of great significance to the biotechnology industry, thus the detection and isolation of ectoine producing bacteria is of great importance. Hence, this study involved the detection of the ectC gene (encoding ectoin synthase enzyme) using polymerase chain reacti...
متن کاملMinimally managed composting of beef manure at the pilot scale: effect of manure pile construction on pile temperature profiles and on the fate of oxytetracycline and chlortetracycline.
Oxytetracycline (OTC) and chlortetracycline (CTC) are broad-spectrum antibiotics used in livestock production. Although laboratory-scale studies have shown that extractable concentrations of these compounds decrease over time within treated and untreated manures and soils, there is relatively little information from farm-scale experiments. The objective of this study was to determine the effect...
متن کاملManagement of antibiotic residues from agricultural sources: use of composting to reduce chlortetracycline residues in beef manure from treated animals.
Chlortetracycline (CTC) is one of only ten antibiotics licensed in the U.S.A. for use as growth promoters for livestock. The widespread use and persistence of CTC may contribute in development of antibiotic-resistant bacteria. The objective of this study was to determine the effect of composting on the fate of CTC residues found in manure from medicated animals. The effect of CTC residues on co...
