He added, "The university must address these questions and, if deficiencies are identified, make appropriate and necessary changes".
If deficiencies are observed during the growing season, application of sulfate S as late as bolting to early flowering can be beneficial although yield will generally be lower than if the S had been available from the start of crop growth.
It is currently unclear whether defective snRNP assembly and subsequent splicing of genes in motoneurons is responsible for SMA or if deficiencies in other tissue-specific functions of SMN cause the disease [33].
The mentor may also interview former preceptors/evaluators, particularly if deficiencies lie in roles other than the Medical Expert.
If deficiencies are identified, a written plan of action must be generated to document initiatives to improve program performance.
In order to counter the fear of disciplinary action if deficiencies were identified, the respondents were assured of anonymity and confidentiality.
If deficiencies are identified either with treatment fidelity or competency, these are addressed directly with the Coach by the supervising psychologist.
It also serves to reinforce the conclusion that the quality of reporting in diagnostic systematic reviews is far from adequate if deficiencies in reporting are still being observed in a 'more selective' and therefore 'higher quality' group of studies.
The main objectives of our study were, therefore, to: (1) determine the quality of care provided for a specific, low-volume patient population; and (2) improve the quality of care if deficiencies were found.
If deficiencies were detected during the exercise, efforts were made to correct them via departmental meetings concerning CPR procedures and implementation, carrying out specific actions to correct deficiencies, and by inviting the medical and nursing staff to refresher courses in CPR (advanced cardiac life support [ACLS] or basic cardiac life support [BLS]).
