PURPOSE: This study aimed to describe nurses' knowledge and practices toward patients with acute or chronic confusion. DESIGN AND METHODS: A cross-sectional design was used, and 249 nurses engaged in clinical practice fulfilled an online self-report questionnaire. FINDINGS: Tools for diagnosing acute confusion/delirium are never used by 57.80% of the nurses. Between 80% and 81% of nursing interventions involve ...
Port wine vineyards along the margins of the Douro River are socio-culturally important, as Port wine is a world class agricultural product. While the tradition and economic beneficts of the crop are considerable, the intensive use of fertilizers, fungicides and pesticides to disease control in the vineyard is corrently raising public concern. The principal aim of this project is to assess the effect of inten...
The recovery of metal ions by electrodeposition from solutions resulting from the lixiviation of spent Zn-MnO2 batteries was studied. It was attempted to optimise the electrodeposition process, the selectivity of ion-separation, the morphologic characteristics, and the anticorrosive and galvanic properties of metallic deposits. The simultaneous deposition of zinc and manganese on different ferrous substrates un...
This review examines the reasons for increasing interest towards electrolyses by the chemical industry, reviews the electrochemical industries as most of them now exist, and provides a status report on the key technological advances which are occurring to meet present and future needs. Classical industries like those of chloroalkali, aluminium, p-aminophenol, adiponitrile, ethylene glycol, anthraquinone, perflu...
The electrical properties of p-type layers of indium phosphide (InP), formed by the diffusion of zinc into n-type material, are studied by Hall Effect measurements. A wide range of diffusion conditions are used and both homogeneously doped specimens and those containing a zinc atom concentration gradient are produced. A non-correspondence of atom and carrier concentrations is indicated, confirming previous four...
