Faced with an Ebola-related mandate to regularly train frontline hospital staff with the donning and doffing of personal protective equipment, a community hospital's emergency department implemented remote video auditing (RVA) to assist in the training and remediation of its nursing staff. RVA was found to be useful in assessing performance and facilitating remediation.

A series of supramolecular diamide organogels containing a reactive compound for the remediation of organophosphorus (OP) species, in particular OP chemical warfare agents (CWAs), has been prepared in DMSO. The organogels have been found to absorb, encapsulate and decontaminate various OP CWA simulants in situ. At high simulant concentrations the gels also undergo a gel-sol transition releasing...

a r t i c l e i n f o Keywords: Acid mine drainage Pre-mining conditions Reactive solute-transport model Remediation With the increased importance of water resources in the western United States and many areas worldwide, the remediation of impacts from historical mining becomes ever more important. A possible process of making decisions about remediation for a catchment might include identifica...

A review of the literature published in 2014 relating to the assessment, evaluation and remediation of contaminated aquatic sediments is presented. The review is divided into the following sections: policy and guidance, methodology, distribution, fate and transport, bioavailability, bioaccumulation, risk, toxicity and remediation.

BACKGROUND program for phonological remediation in developmental dyslexia. AIM to verify the efficacy of a program for phonological remediation in students with developmental dyslexia. Specific goals of this study involved the comparison of the linguistic-cognitive performance of students with developmental dyslexia with that of students considered good readers; to compare the results obtaine...

Many sites are contaminated with petroleum hydrocarbons (PHCs). In some cases, these PHCs may be biorecalcitrant and therefore the soils contaminated with these PHCs are not amenable to remediation by biological treatment methods. Examples of sites containing biorecalcitrant PHCs are old flare pit sites. Flare pits are earthen pits that were once used for the storage and disposal of natural gas...
