the long-term effects of a token economy on safety performance in open-pit mining.a token economy that used trading stamps as tokens was instituted at two dangerous open-pit mines. employees earned stamps for working without lost-time injuries, for being in work groups in which all other workers had no lost-time injuries, for not being involved in equipment-damaging accidents, for making adopted safety suggestions, and for unusual behavior which prevented an injury or accident. they lost stamp awards if they or other workers in their group were injured, caused equipment damag ...20133667473

foley feeding catheter migration into the small bowel.percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy provides a non-surgical alternative to enteral feeding. the tube may deteriorate or be expelled accidentally from the stomach and require replacement. we report a patient in whom the replacement foley catheter migrated into the jejunum, resulting in impaction of the hub into the abdominal wall with resultant localized infection and impaction at the stoma site. we review this problem and suggest a simple technique to prevent the complication.20061479171
accessory nerve palsy: a review of 23 cases.in a series of 23 patients, the commonest cause of accessory nerve palsy was surgical trauma at the time of lymph node biopsy. the less common causes were penetrating or blunt trauma and a few were of spontaneous onset. there was involvement of adjacent motor sensory nerves in about half of the patients. the prognosis was better following blunt trauma, stretch injuries and after a spontaneous onset. the anatomical relationships of the accessory nerve and aspects of the clinical picture and manag ...20071913369
