Abstract:

This chapter first discusses the general approach of regulators to risk management. Regulators often claim that they take a risk-based approach to the regulation of banks and other financial institutions. What matters to the regulator is compliance with the substance of its enunciated principles, not merely with their form. ‘Creative compliance’ and trying to find ‘ways round’ a clearly stated regulatory principle are not options. However, legal and conduct risk can be affected simply by a change of attitude on the part of the regulator without there being any change in rules or regulations. T

There are approximately 100 new cases each year coming before the higher courts dealing with regulatory and disciplinary issues. Cases involving health care professionals, the legal and accountancy professions and the police, including the Independent Police Complaints Commission, are heard daily in the Administrative Court in London or in Manchester, and cases concerning financial services are regularly heard in the Upper Tribunal. Frequently cases go on appeal to the Court of Appeal and occasionally to the Supreme Court. Additionally, cases involving issues of professional conduct are heard

Abstract:

Atrial flutter is the term given to one of the four types of supraventricular tachycardia; in it, atrial activation occurs as a consequence of a continuous ‘short circuit’: a defined and fixed anatomical route, resulting in a fairly uniform atrial rate, and uniform atrial flutter waves on the ECG. The ventricles are not a part of this arrhythmia circuit, and ventricular activation is variable, dependent on atrioventricular (AV) nodal conduction. Given that the atrial rate is essentially uniform (e.g. 300 min−1), ventricular activation tends to be regular (i.e. 150 min−1, 100 min−1, 75 min−1, e

Abstract:

International humanitarian law is the law that governs the conduct of participants during armed conflict. This branch of law aims to regulate the means and methods of warfare as well as to provide protections to those who do not, or who no longer, take part in the hostilities. It is one of the oldest branches of international law and one of enduring relevance today. This book provides an authoritative and practical overview of this important area of law.

Abstract:

Focal atrial tachycardia is an atrial arrhythmia arising in either the left or the right atrium, usually faster than 100 min−1 and regular, with a P-wave morphology that is different from the normal P-wave morphology associated with sinus rhythm—the difference in morphology being more pronounced the further away the focus lies from the sinus node. The ventricular rate is generally fast also, dependent on the nature of the atrioventricular conduction (AV); 1:1 conduction may be seen, especially in younger patients or patients with accessory pathways capable of very rapid antegrade conduction; a

This chapter looks at the relationship between dialogue and monologue and what this reveals about the emergence of local practices and ideologies about these practices. This chapter’s empirical focus is the talk that occurs in a regular monthly women’s meeting that occurred in one of Indonesia’s diverse urban neighborhoods in the mid-1990s. It shows how imitation of each other’s talk figures in the emergence of norms for social conduct in this neighborhood and ultimately a monologic neighborhood voice. In doing so, the chapter also points to how this interactional work relates to broader state

Abstract:

Ventricular tachyarrhythmias are abnormal patterns of electrical activity arising from the ventricular tissue (myocardium and conduction tissue). Ventricular tachycardia (VT) is an abnormal rapid heart rhythm originating from the ventricles. The rhythm may arise from the ventricular myocardium and/or from the distal conduction system. The normal heart rate is usually regular, between 60 and 100 bpm, and there is synchronized atrial and ventricular contraction. In VT, the ventricles contract at a rate greater than 120 bpm and typically from 150 to 300 bpm, and are no longer coordinated with the

Atrioventricular (AV) re-entrant tachycardia (AVRT) is a type of supraventricular tachycardia, manifesting most commonly as a regular, narrow-QRS-complex tachycardia. It is usually a paroxysmal tachycardia, and is dependent upon the presence of an accessory electrical connection located between the atria and the ventricles (distinct and separate from the AV node–His–Purkinje system) and which is capable of atrioventricular (antegrade) or ventriculoatrial (retrograde) electrical conduction (or both).

This issue is of specific relevance in the context of mis-selling cases, as the regulator may direct (or otherwise sponsor or influence) the terms of redress and in ways that may not be perfectly aligned to a strict application of liability under English common law.

This edited volume asks how governmentality and postcolonial approaches can be brought together to help us better understand specific sites and practices of contemporary postcolonial governance. The framework/approach was inspired by the recent use of governmentality approaches that emphasize how governance functions not solely through states but through multiple tactics and means that regulate the conduct of individuals and institutions through both freedom and constraint. A postcolonial approach to governance exposes the role of postcolonial sites and practices in shaping governance and the

He shows how Edwards kept various exegetical manuscripts and developed detailed systems for organizing and indexing his reflections on the Bible. These practices made it easier for him to draw from this material as he constructed theological treatises and developed and repreached sermons. Edwards also regularly conducted “canonical reviews” to systematically examine how Scripture treated different theological themes. This understanding of Edwards’ direct engagement with the Bible and

Abstract:

This chapter concerns the topic of enforcement. It explains the regulators’ powers to gather information and perform investigations, and it lists the fifteen circumstances in which the regulator can issue a supervisory notice. The processes which the regulators must follow—specifically issuing ‘statutory notices’—when taking formal decisions are explained. The extent of the disciplinary powers of the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) and Prudential Regulation Authority (PRA) are then assessed. The jurisdiction, procedure, and track record of the tribunal of first instance for referrals of stat

Abstract:

Inadequate control of post-operative pain can be associated with acute morbidity and have adverse effects on recovery and emotional well-being. The aims of acute pain medicine are reducing pain intensity, control of side effects, hastening rehabilitation, and improving acute and long-term outcomes. League tables compare the efficacy of analgesics, based on the number-needed-to-treat (NNT) to achieve 50% pain reduction. Systematic reviews of different interventions for acute pain are conducted and regularly updated in the Cochrane Library. The second edition of Acute Pain Management: Scientific

Abstract:

Common complaints against state agencies that regulate parental conduct are that they are insensitive to cultural diversity, unfairly force adult members of cultural minorities to conform to majoritarian norms, and consequently both disrupt parent–child relationships to children's detriment and threaten the very survival of minority cultures. This chapter will address the difficult question of whether and to what extent state agencies should modify child-welfare standards to fit different practices of minority cultural groups. Answering this question entails: clarifying the state’s role genera

Academic professionals are expected to restrain self-interest, promote the ideals of public service, and maintain high standards of performance, while society grants the profession autonomy to regulate itself through peer review.

This chapter focuses on the Financial Conduct Authority's (FCA) Handbook of Rules and Guidance and the Prudential Regulation Authority's (PRA) Rulebook. The FCA Handbook of Rules and Guidance and the PRA Rulebook are two of the most important products or physical expressions of the FCA and PRA's general functions with respect to financial services regulation: they are the primary consolidation of the rules, and (in the case of the FCA) guidance through which that regulator performs its particular functions. The chapter first explains what material goes into the FCA Handbook and the PRA Ruleboo
