The purpose of this study was first, to evaluate the nurse's knowledge on enteral drug administration, and second, to observe nurses and to evaluate the adequacy of their practices with guidelines, and to report medication-administration errors.
The inclusion of Infant and Young Child Feeding indicators [ 22] in the Health Management Information System will strengthen the nutrition surveillance system and help monitor the adequacy of feeding practices for Bhutanese children.
In this study, we assessed the adequacy of cleaning practices in rooms of patients with Clostridium difficile-associated diarrhea (CDAD) and vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus (VRE) colonization or infection and examined whether an intervention would result in improved decontamination of surfaces.
For comparison, we also examined the adequacy of cleaning practices in rooms of patients colonized or infected with VRE because these rooms receive routine terminal cleaning after patient discharge.
Because we and others have demonstrated that frequently touched objects in patients' rooms may not be adequately disinfected by housekeeping staff [ 3, 13], we assessed the adequacy of cleaning practices for CDAD rooms in our institution and examined whether an intervention would result in improved decontamination of frequently touched surfaces.
The adequacy of current design practice is reviewed, in the light of the full scale experimental observations.
Despite the attention given to the practice of enteral nutrition in daily rounds by intensivists and ICU nurses, we were not adequately and accurately informed as to the adequacy of our feeding practice [ 6].
These findings may lead to speculation on the adequacy of current diagnostic practice and whether the use of multiple glucose measurements at different time points of the day or assessment of HbA1c would identify hyperglycaemic individuals more accurately.
The predicted dynamic responses of the building using the actual amplitude-dependent damping characteristics are compared with those computed by using constant damping parameters assumed by the structural designers or estimated from the field measurements in order to evaluate the adequacy of current design practices and to apply that knowledge to structural design of tall buildings.
The predicted dynamic responses of the building using the actual amplitude-dependent damping characteristics were compared to those computed with constant damping parameters assumed by the structural designers to evaluate the adequacy of current design practices and to investigate the effect of amplitude-dependent damping on the wind-induced responses.
