  • Scalp Eczema Factsheet the Scalp Is an Area of the Body That Can Be Affected by Several Types of Eczema
    12 Scalp eczema factsheet The scalp is an area of the body that can be affected by several types of eczema. The scalp may be dry, itchy and scaly in a chronic phase and inflamed (red), weepy and painful in an acute (eczema flare) phase. Aside from eczema, there are a number of reasons why the scalp can become dry and itchy (e.g. psoriasis, fungal infection, ringworm, head lice etc.), so it is wise to get a firm diagnosis if there is uncertainty.

  • Tasmanian Hardwood Strip Flooring on Joists Guide for Installing
    TASMANIAN HARDWOOD STRIP FLOORING ON JOISTS installation guide These instructions apply to quality Tasmanian strip flooring fixed over joists in residential applications. STRIP FLOOR ON JOISTS TOP NAILED SECRET NAILED END MATCHED TOOLS Simple tools are adequate in most applications. Necessary tools are: Tool Requirement Checklist Pencil, tape measure and square Hammer, punch and nail bag Stringline, spirit level and straight edge Hand saw and jig saw Safety glasses, dust mask and knee pads Spacers (about 100mm long and 2 mm thick) Rubber mallet, broom and vacuum cleaner Framing chisel For specialist applications, a drop saw, an air power staple gun, a power actuated fastener system and a cramping system may be useful. MATERIALS Use quality boards of the correct thickness. Grade descriptions for strip flooring are set out in the Australian Standard AS 2796 and are available at: www.tastimber.tas.gov.au. Boards at least 19 mm thick are needed to span 450 mm. Board width - Only secret nail boards up to 85 mm cover width. Secret nailed flooring is fixed through the tongue of specially profiled boards. Since they are only secured with one fastener per joist or batten, their width is limited to 85 mm cover. Board over 85 cover must be top nailed with two fasteners per joist. Use the correct nails for the job. The nail sizes required by Australian Standard 1684 are: Nail sizes for T & G flooring to joists* Nail sizes for T & G flooring to plywood substrate* Nailing Softwood Hardware & Strip flooring Rec. nailing (min.15mm substrate) joists cypress joists thicknes (mm) Hand 65 x 2.8 mm 50 x 2.8 mm 38 x 16 guage chisel point staples or driven bullet head bullet head 19 or 20 38 x 2.2 mm nails at 300mm spacing 32 x 16 guage chisel point staples or Machine 12,19 or 20 driven 65 x 2.5 mm 50 x 2.5 mm 30 x 2.2 mm nails at 200mm spacing *Alternative fasteners can be used for substrates types not listed subject to manufacturers’ recommendation.

  • Regional Handwashing Policy
    SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA GRADUATE MEDICAL EDUCATION POLICY AND PROCEDURE POLICY INFECTION PREVENTION AND CONTROL POLICIES EFFECTIVE DATE: SECTION: AND PROCEDURES 7/1/2014 TITLE: Hand Health & Hygiene Page: 1 of 8 BACKGROUND Studies have shown that handwashing causes a reduction in the carriage of potential pathogens on the hands. Microorganisms proliferate on the hands within the moist environment of gloves. Handwashing results in the reduction of patient morbidity and mortality from health care associated infections. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention states that handwashing is the single most important procedure for preventing health-care associated infections. Artificial nails are more likely than natural nails to harbor pathogens that can lead to health care associated infections. There are four types of hand washing (see body of policy for detailed instructions): TYPE PURPOSE METHOD Routine Handwashing To remove soil and transient Wash hands with soap and microorganisms. water for at least 15 seconds.

  • White Nail As a Static Physical Finding: Revitalization of Physical Examination
    Case Report White Nail as a Static Physical Finding: Revitalization of Physical Examination Ryuichi Ohta 1,* and Chiaki Sano 2 1 Community Care, Unnan City Hospital, 699-1221 96-1 Iida, Daito-cho, Unnan 699-1221, Shimane Prefecture, Japan 2 Department of Community Medicine Management, Faculty of Medicine, Shimane University, 89-1 Enya cho, Izumo 693-8501, Shimane Prefecture, Japan; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +81-9050605330 Abstract: Physical examinations are critical for diagnosis and should be differentiated into static and dynamic categories. One of the static findings is white nail, such as Terry’s and Lindsay’s nails. Here, we report the cases of two older patients with acute diseases who had nail changes that aided evaluation of their clinical course. Two elderly women who presented with acute conditions were initially thought to have normal serum albumin levels. They were found to have white nail with differences in nail involvement of the first finger, which subsequently revealed their hypoalbuminemia. The clinical courses were different following the distribution of nail whitening. Our findings show that examination of a white nail could indicate the previous clinical status more clearly than laboratory data. It can be useful for evaluating preclinical conditions in patients with acute diseases. Further evaluation is needed to establish the relationship between clinical outcomes and the presence of white nail in acute conditions among older patients. Citation: Ohta, R.; Sano, C.
