In a war zone, there are potential risks of the spread of an emergency due to harmful (polluting) substances in the environment above the maximum permissible concentrations. The causes of the danger are explosions, detonations, chemical spills, military vehicles, shelling or destruction of the infrastructure of oil facilities, and damage to the infrastructure of water supply and drainage. Method of preventing emergencies of a technological nature includes procedures using modern technologies and information systems to ensure timely response and minimise risks for the population and the environ

Abstract:
The concept of Epidemiological Surveillance in a Complex Humanitarian Emergency would depend upon the emergency itself and where it is taking place. The history of epidemiology goes to back to the eighteenth century when a disease was finally tracked to its origins and therefore the treatment involved the removal of the causative agents. The study of epidemiology expanded in the recent turn of the century when newer diseases, infectious and nutritional were studied prospectively and retrospectively. The study even went on to traumatology where similar models were used to find the cause and pre

Abstract:
Hyperglycemic emergencies are the most common endocrinopathies that require intensive care. It is estimated that between 10% and 15% of patients admitted to intensive care units experience complications of acute hyperglycemia. The common denominator of hyperglycemic emergencies is diabetes mellitus, a group of diseases in which, either because of beta-cell destruction of the pancreas or insulin receptor-site defects, there is a relative or absolute deficiency of insulin that results in hyperglycemia. In response to various precipitating factors, staggering hyperglycemia may develop in the form

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.

Abstract:
Unhealthy diets are a major risk factor for non-communicable diseases (NCDs), the leading cause of death and disability worldwide. For population-level prevention, governments must scale up their use of mandatory policy interventions to tackle the supply-side determinants of unhealthy diets. However, for political, cultural, and technical reasons, governments have traditionally been reluctant to impose binding legal standards in this policy arena. Identifying variables that facilitate implementation of such policies is therefore a research priority. This thesis investigates mandatory nutrient

This thesis investigates the emergence and significance of the phenomenon termed the contemporary promise of quality in healthcare. This phenomenon is shown to be part and product of a historically extraordinary set of movements that have remade quality in a form that is explicit, calculable, expressible as accounting numbers, and amenable to management ideas and ideals. It is also shown to be closely inter-twined with the emergence of a distinct way of contemplating and undertaking reform of the healthcare sector; a politically attractive means of continually responding to failures by calling

Background: It is widely acknowledged that Uganda was the first country in sub-Saharan Africa to experience a significant decline in HIV seroprevalence in the 1990s.

With reference to broader debates about the role of evidence in policy, this thesis aims to examine contested explanations for the decline in HIV prevalence in Uganda and the role of evidence in the development of g

Abstract:
Recent large-scale epidemics and pandemics have demonstrated the importance of engaging communities as partners in preventing, detecting and responding to public health emergencies. Community-based surveillance (CBS), which relies on communities to report public health information, can be an important part of effective, inclusive and accountable responses to humanitarian and public health emergencies, as well as long-term disease control. This brief offers key considerations for CBS programming to guide policymakers, public health officials, civil society organisations, health workers, researc

Abstract:
The Latin American and Caribbean region has pursued a variety of policies with respect to slum upgrading and prevention, but the available literature does not provide a description of these experiences and their outcomes. This book examines the policies of three countries in the region, Brazil, Chile, and Colombia, which are notable for the breadth of their policy interventions and their diversity. These three countries have taken different routes but together provide a strong representation of the panoply of choices. The policies share a common feature of emphasizing access to housing of slum
