Low-Cost Veterinary Clinical Diagnostics - Ryane E. Englar - Bog - John Wiley and Sons Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Low-Cost Veterinary Clinical Diagnostics A practical guide to maximizing the diagnostic value of in-house quick assessment tests (QATs) In Low-Cost Veterinary Clinical Diagnostics, the authors provide a hands-on resource designed to facilitate healthcare delivery across the spectrum of care. Historically, clinicians have been taught to apply the gold standard approach to the practice of medicine. However, recent advances in veterinary medical care and associated technologies have made practitioners question whether a one-size-fits-all approach is truly best. After all, when we perform diagnostic tests, are we testing out of the desire for completeness, to cover all bases for the good of the patient? Or are we testing because we are expected to? The reality is that gold standard care is not always advisable and not always possible. In clinical practice, veterinarians frequently encounter obstacles that limit their approaches to case management. Cost of care is a significant constraint that requires practitioners to rethink which diagnostic tests are essential. Not every patient requires a complete blood count (CBC), chemistry profile, urinalysis, and fecal analysis to obtain diagnostic value. This text suggests that the “best” approach to case management be determined by the situation, the context, the patient, and the client. While sophisticated panels of tests may remain the recommended approach to case management, Low-Cost Veterinary Clinical Diagnostics outlines entry-level, in-house diagnostic blood, urine, fecal, and body cavity fluid tests: how to perform them as well as the breadth and depth of patient-specific data that can be gleaned from quick assessment tests (QATs). Readers will also find: A thorough introduction to patient care considerations, communication strategies that facilitate cost-conscious shared decision-makingComprehensive explorations of quick assessment tests (QATs) in hematology, including packed cell volume (PCV), total solids (TS), buffy coat analysis, blood smears, blood glucose, blood urea nitrogen (BUN), saline agglutination tests, and activated clotting time. Practical discussions of quick assessment tests (QATs) involving urine, including urine color, dipstick analysis, specific gravity (USG), and urine sediment analysisPragmatic evaluation of fecal analysis, including considerations surrounding fecal color, volume, consistency, and odor; saline smears or wet mounts, and fecal flotation. Discussion on body cavity fluid analysisSample case vignettes, complete with question and answer (Q&A) Perfect for veterinary practitioners, veterinary technicians, veterinary and veterinary technician students, Low-Cost Veterinary Clinical Diagnostics offers a quick and easy reference guide to maximizing diagnostic value in those cases where care is cost-prohibitive.

Gender in Low and Middle-Income Countries - Robert H. Bradley - Bog - John Wiley and Sons Ltd - Plusbog.dk

How do girls and boys in low- and middle-income countries (LMIC) in the majority world vary with respect to central indicators of child growth and mortality, parental caregiving, discipline and violence, and child labor? How do key indicators of national gender equity and economic development relate to gender similarities and differences in each of these substantive areas of child development? This monograph of the SRCD is concerned with central topics of child gender, gendered parenting, gendered environments, and gendered behaviors and socializing practices in the underresearched and underserved world of LMIC. To examine protective and risk factors related to child gender in LMIC around the world, we used data from more than 2 million individuals in 400,000 families in 41 LMIC collected in the Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey, a household survey that includes nationally representative samples of participating countries. In the fi rst chapter of this monograph, we describe the conceptual "gender similarities" and "bioecological" frameworks that helped guide the monograph. In the second chapter, we detail the general methodology adhered to in the substantive chapters. Then, in topical chapters, we describe the situations of girls and boys with successive foci on child growth and mortality, parental caregiving, family discipline and violence, and child labor. We conclude with a general discussion of fi ndings from the substantive chapters in the context of gender and bioecological theories. Across 41 LMIC and four substantive areas of child development, few major gender differences emerged. Our data support a gender similarities view and suggest that general emphases on early child gender differences may be overstated at least for the developing world of LMIC.

Barry's Introduction to Construction of Buildings - Stephen Emmitt - Bog - John Wiley and Sons Ltd - Plusbog.dk

BARRY’S INTRODUCTION TO CONSTRUCTION OF BUILDINGS Authoritative, well established, comprehensive, practical, and highly illustrated guide to construction practice Barry’s Introduction to Construction of Buildings provides the basic material an undergraduate student will need to understand how the majority of low-rise buildings are constructed. The text explains construction technology through key functional and performance requirements for the main elements common to all buildings. The material in the Fifth Edition has been updated to ensure it covers the latest building regulations and current construction technology, with particular attention paid to the decisions required on what and how to build to achieve a low carbon, resilient built environment. Design, technology, site assembly, and environmental issues are all covered, showing how buildings that are more efficient, with lower embodied carbon, are constructed. New ‘in chapter’ questions better facilitate self-reflection and learning. Barry’s Introduction to Construction of Buildings contains information on: General principles of construction, regulations and approvals, making choices and sources of information, and responding to climate changeSite analysis, setup, security, bedrock and soil types, ground stability, drainage, strip, pad, and raft foundations and scaffoldingFunctional requirements for floors, including ground-supported concrete floor slabs, timber upper floors, floor finishes, and suspended timber ground floorsPitched roofs and their coverings, sheet metal covering to low-pitched roofs, flat roofs, thermal insulation in flat roofs, parapet walls, and green roofs Barry’s Introduction to Construction of Buildings is an ideal learning resource for undergraduate students and those working towards similar NQF level 5 and 6 qualifications in building and construction. This title is a companion to Barry’s Advanced Construction of Buildings.
