Implementation of Compliance Based Quality Management Systems in Medical Diagnostic Laboratories Benchmarked for Accreditation | Chapter 15 | New Frontiers in Medicine and Medical Research Vol. 14

The purpose of this study was to track the application of current regulatory compliance in medical testing laboratories connected to quality systems. Accreditation is the process of ensuring that certification processes are implemented in laboratories in order to improve the quality and efficiency of the latter. As a result, laboratories can improve their technological procedures, gain a competitive advantage, and expand their market share. The proper implementation of the laboratory quality management system (LQMS) is a requirement for accreditation. The evaluation of quality system implementation in small, medium, and big laboratories, including management and technical needs, was carried out in this study. Improve and sustain the implementation of quality system standards in the laboratory process, and talk about how to meet the current quality system criteria in testing labs. The study was scored on how well the quality system was implemented in the laboratory's numerous operational tasks. Data was acquired by auditing laboratories utilising a check list for the goal of implementing an ISO quality management system. This study emphasises that training is an important component that can help create awareness and understanding of the importance of implementing a quality system in medical testing laboratories. In order to sustain world-class laboratory service, training needs should be evidence-based, measure laboratory staff proficiency, and evaluate staff performance. The quality indicators can be used to compare services and improve them. The study indicates that LQMS in medical testing laboratories demonstrate the importance of understanding current quality system implementation and maintenance requirements in order to improve laboratory service quality and facilitate certification. A breakdown in quality system implementation might result in a drop in service quality and, as a result, certification.

Greening Regional Airports: A Vision for Carbon Neutral Infrastructure | Chapter 12 | Contemporary Perspective on Science, Technology and Research Vol. 3

 This study provides an overview of the energy demand of a regional airport, divided into individual time horizons. The electrification of aircraft systems raises the question of whether airports will be among the largest electricity consumers in our infrastructure in the future. Sustainability and especially emission reductions are significant challenges for airports that are currently being addressed. The Clean Sky 2 project GENESIS addresses the environmental sustainability of hybrid-electric 50-passenger aircraft systems in a life cycle perspective to support the development of a technology roadmap for the transition to sustainable and competitive electric aircraft systems. This article originates from the GENESIS research and describes various options for ground power supply at a regional airport. Potential solutions for airport infrastructure with a short (2030), medium (2040), and long (2050) time horizon are proposed. In addition to the environmental and conservation benefi...

Study on Processing Method Influences the Effect of Cassava (Manihot esculenta) Consumption on Blood Lipid Profile in Rats | Chapter 8 | Current Research and Development in Chemistry Vol.1

Cassava is consumed in many tropical countries and is fast becoming the major raw material of many diets, especially in the bakery, brewery and pharmaceutical industries. In a study to determine the effects of various formulations of Cassava feeds on blood lipid profile in rats. Forty adult Wistar rats weighing between 120 and 150 g were divided into 4 groups of 10 rats each. The rats were acclimatized for one week; fed with different formulations of Cassava feeds adlibitum, after which the rats were allotted into groups. Group 1 was fed on Garri; group 2 on Cassava flour; group 3 on Tapioca, and the control group (group 4) on normal chow. After 4 weeks, each animal was anaesthetized by exposure to chloroform vapour and blood samples collected by cardiac puncture. Group 1 diet (Garri) significantly increased HDL-cholesterol (HDL-C) concentration and significantly decreased LDL-cholesterol (LDL-C) concentration (p<0.05) compared with the control group. In Group 2 (Cassava flour), t...

Ethnopharmacological Survey among Traditional Medicine Practitioners in Abidjan (Côte d'Ivoire) for the Management of Pathologies such as Malaria, ENT Diseases, Diarrhea, Typhoid Fever and Anemia | Chapter 05 | New Horizons in Medicine and Medical Research Vol. 8

 Traditional Medicine Practitioners (TMPs) of Côte d'Ivoire are familiar with the therapeutic herbs. Medicinal plants have been shown to be useful in the treatment of common diseases such as malaria (KROA, 2004) and diabetes (N'GUESSAN et al, 2013) in several studies and scientific study. In the Abidjan District, the current policy is to integrate traditional medicine and pharmacopoeia into the national health system in order to improve population health coverage, particularly in the management of commonly encountered diseases such as malaria, ENT diseases, diarrhoea, typhoid fever, and anaemia. This research aims to increase the use of traditional medicine and pharmacopoeia in the national health system. Over the course of three months, fifty (50) PMTs in the District of Abidjan participated in this study. Plant therapists accounted for 30 of the 50 PMTs polled at the end of the study, or 60%. Traditional medicine centres use 61 types of medicinal plants from 36 famili...
