| a survey of family planning in the philippines. | a multicenter survey of 400 married filipino women 15-40 years of age conducted in 1986 by family health international and the international health foundation provided valuable information on contraceptive use in the philippines, as well as factors influencing such practices. the respondents, who were drawn from 10 urban communities in metro manila and 10 rural communities in nueva ecija province, averaged 31.5 years of age and had a mean number of 2.9 children. 32% of respondents indicated they ... | 2011 | 3192555 |
| basic principles of intravenous nutritional support. | parenteral nutrition has been one of the major advances in clinical medicine in the 20th century. by maintaining or re-establishing optimal nutritional status, one can help to ensure an optimal response to appropriate medical or surgical management of the primary disease process. in order to plan an appropriate nutritional regimen, the health-care provider must be equipped to pursue the following thought processes: understand the consequences of malnutrition. identify the patient who may benefit ... | 2011 | 3082576 |
| biologic fixation of a press-fit titanium hip joint endoprosthesis. | the rectangular cross section of a straight-stem prosthesis makes a primary stable, rotation-safe fixation possible that is independent of the individual form of the femur. due to the curvature of the femur, a three-dimensional large-area anchorage is achieved along the entire prosthesis length in the corticalis as well as in the spongiosa. the titanium-aluminum-niobium alloy is extremely biocompatible and enables the fast ongrowth of newly formed osseous tissue to act as secondary stabilization ... | 2012 | 3416526 |
| induction and maintenance of swallowing responses in infants with dysphagia. | a treatment package was used to induce and maintain swallowing with three infants who did not swallow food or liquid. prior to treatment, they received all nutrition and hydration via gastrostomy tube feedings. the treatment package consisted of least-to-most intrusive physical prompts, an eliciting stimulus, contingent social reinforcement, and repeated trials to induce and maintain swallowing. the design combined elements of reversal and changing criterion designs for all three infants. the pa ... | 2012 | 3417578 |
