Methods: group, double blinded, randomized controlled pilot trial was undertaken. Patients were randomized to receive either local infiltration analgesia, femoral nerve block or intrathecal morphine for post-operative analgesia following total knee arthroplasty. The efficacy of analgesia was determined by recording post-operative pain visual analogue scores, opiate requirements and side effects, and functional scores at 24 hours, 48 hours, and 6 weeks post-operatively. Results: 45 patients were recruited to the study. 4 were excluded due to voluntary withdrawal and incomplete follow-up. The final analysis included 13 patients randomized to the local infiltration analgesia group, 14 patients to the femoral nerve block group and 14 patients to the intrathecal morphine group. There were no significant differences in post-operative pain scores, opiate requirements and associated side effects, or functional scores at any point during the study period.

Results showed that the synthesized CS-NPs with different concentrations of trisodium polyphosphate (TPP) are irregular - spherical shaped with narrow size distribution and high stability. The microporous chitosan was also synthesized with new features characterized with different techniques as SEM, EDX, FTIR and BET. The synthesized microporous chitosan has a surface area and pore volume of 245.571m 2 /g and 0.155cm 3 /g respectively. Its microporous surface is functionalized with carboxyl and amine groups. Histopathological and ultrastructural studies of mice liver were performed using optical and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) by intraperitoneal (IP) injection of male mice to evaluate toxicity of free and BSA-CS-NPs inside the body after three, six and nine days. However, no pathological or illness signs were observed in mice throughout the in vivo experiment with non-significant changes on body and relative weight of liver in compared to the negative control group. In addition, biochemical parameters exhibited a normal functionality of liver after BSA-CS-NPs administration. Accordingly, mild histopathological or ultrastructural alterations were observed in the liver of treated mice in all groups with respect with the negative controls. Activated Kupffer cells and leukocytes were observed due to the synergism of adjuvant effect of CS-NPs and antigenic peptides involved in BSA. Herein, we opened new direction for synthesis of different forms of CS-NPs and providing an obvious insight on histopathological and ultrastructural changes after administration of CS-NPs and its protein bio-complexes.","PeriodicalId":207626,"journal":{"name":"Open Access Journal of Biomedical Science","volume":"69 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-02-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131230848","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

ABSTRACT Breast malignance is the greatest public in ladies, with a high incidence in North America and Eastern Europe, medium in Southern Europe and the Middle East and low in the Far East. Breast malignance is the second most common malignance in the world after lung malignance, and since it happens a lot, the doctors asked the women to examine themselves by themselves, in order to discover the signs of the disease early before it spreads. It is possible that this disease can be treated after being diagnosed by a specialized doctor and determining the type of tumor in the breast, and the surgeon removes the breast completely and starts chemotherapy about 6 doses, then radiotherapy, how many sessions will be determined by the doctor, and then hormonal therapy, a medicine called Tamoxafin or any medicine determined by the doctor, and it is possible. This disease will not come back again if the eyes follow the instructions and do not tire themselves a lot, and remain calm, because malignance is one of the causes of its increased nervous appearance and you try to stop stimulants such as tea, coffee and chocolate because they increase the chance of injury. Also, stop cigarettes, even if drinks have a percentage A small amount of alcohol in response increases the chance of infection, and also exercise, if we practice it regularly, will benefit greatly and reduce the chances of contracting the disease.","PeriodicalId":207626,"journal":{"name":"Open Access Journal of Biomedical Science","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-02-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125726394","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It may occur at each five stages of drug ordering and delivery including prescription, transcription, dispensing, and administration or monitoring. Prevalence of medication error in healthcare settings have been found that they were common in hospitals. A significant proportion of medication errors are associated with actual or potentially harmful effects. Objective: The major goal of this assessment was to figure out the actual practices on the ground in medications administered in NRH emergency ward, emphasizing on distribution and prevalence of errors. Methods: This study was a cross-sectional retrospective study conducted at medical and pediatrics wards of NRH. Results: To meet objectives, 768 prescription papers were used to collect necessary data within this study period. A total of 768 patient’s medical prescription orders, there were about 71.73% of at least one prescription error when it is compared to standard prescription order. Of this medication error prevalence, the number of prescriptions with low dose (35.93%) number of prescriptions without appropriate indication (26.43%) number of prescriptions with too high-dose (3.13%) number of prescriptions with inappropriate interval (2.73%) number of prescriptions with drug interaction (1.95%) number of prescriptions with contraindication (1.56%). Numbers of prescriptions with 1st line medicine indicated for diseases were 1.43%. Of total sampled prescriptions, the numbers of drugs order per the number of prescriptions were two. There were prescriptions without patient address (99.35%), prescriptions without card number (97.40%) prescriptions without date (60.94%) prescriptions without sex of patients, (13.02%) prescriptions without age of patients (8.85%). Conclusion and Recommendation: There were clear and large medication and prescription errors on medication prescribing and administration practices in NRH emergency ward.
