"We believe that a more thorough operational assessment," said one document released by the commission, "would have predicted an increased probability of tube leakage or rupture".
Ashok Thadani, director of the commission's Office of Nuclear Regulatory Research, said that if Con Edison had done a more thorough job, it would have been able to predict "an increased probability of tube leakage or rupture" by June 2000.
In March, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission accused both its own staff and Con Edison of mishandling a 1997 inspection of the plant, saying that a "a more thorough operational assessment would have predicted an increased probability of tube leakage or rupture".
For FastDNA® Spin Kit, observations showed tube leakage was responsible and was overcome by the manufacturer replacing Lysing Matrix tubes supplied with the kits.
False positives were obtained with some of the kits, in the case of FastDNA® Spin Kit this may have been due to tube leakage; concomitantly, for this kit the manufacturer has developed new leak proof tubes replacing the original Lysing matrix tubes.
Future studies of tidal volume measurement accuracy in mechanically ventilated children should control for the degree of endotracheal tube leakage.
Four patients stopped supplement intake because of respectively PEG-tube leakage (I: 0.0%, C: 3.1%), inability to swallow liquids after tracheotomy surgery (I: 2.9%, C: 0.0%), supplement-related appetite loss (I: 2.9%, C: 0.0%) and no further explained inability to swallow the oil (I: 2.9%, C: 0.0%).> -wrap-foot> AbbrevIatinterventionrvention, C control.
The PBR assembly was constructed on a concrete pad poured above a gravel drainage bed lined with a geomembrane below a French drain to collect all surface run-off and potential tube leakages.
The demonstration site is located on the east side of the power plant and sits on a concrete pad poured above a gravel drainage bed lined with a geomembrane below a French drain to collect all surface run-off and any potential tube leakages.
