Abstract:
<p> The occurrence of inflight medical incidents on commercial airlines is documented in medical and aviation journals to occur at a rate of approximately 1 in 11,000 &ndash; 50,000 passengers (Lyznicki, 2013; Prout, 2013; Johanson, 2013; and Peterson, 2013) but these numbers can vary. As there are no requirements to report medical incidents to any governing body worldwide (Ruskin, 2009), (Walters, 2008), (Liao, 2010) it is very difficult to obtain an accurate accounting of inflight incidents. The literature reveals that most of the inflight incidents are occurring among passengers with pre-ex

Abstract:
This thesis examines the ways in which 'medical' concepts have been used in penal discourse since the middle of the nineteenth century. By doing this I have tried to contribute to our understanding of modern methods of penal control and modern penal rationalities. The thesis contains two case studies. The first study examines the uses which have been made of the terms 'inebriety' and 'alcoholism' within penal discourse and also examines what is meant by the term 'treatment' when it is used in the context of 'the "treatment" of inebriates'. The second study looks at various ways in which the te

The shaping of the health system in turn determined the mode of participation of doctors. The period is divided in three subperiods: 1917-1943; 1944-1970 and 1971-1988.

I found that medical cannabis laws produce a statistically significant decrease in opioid prescription rates. I discuss the specific policy components that would allow medical cannabis policy to be most effective nationwide.
