Abstract:
Background: Healthcare Associated Infections (HAIs) are infections that patients caught during medical treatment and health care. Prevention and control of infection will lead to patient safety, which ultimately has an impact on efficiency, management of health care facilities, and improvement of service quality. Infection can be controlled by identifying the causes. One method to achieve this goal is the Root Cause Analysis (RCA).Aim: This study aims to analyze the implementation of Root Couse Analysis (RCA) conducted by the Infection Prevention and Control Committee at the Mother and Child H

The formal Root Cause Analysis (RCA) process consists of a structured approach to identifying the underlying factors that result in the unwanted outcomes of one or more typically negative past events (chronic or sporadic). The process helps to identify what systems or behaviors need to be modified to prevent recurrence of similar outcomes. The fundamental driver of the RCA is to eliminate the causes that lead to the unwanted event rather than addressing the symptoms of the event. This generally leads to multiple corrective actions rather than a single solution. Based on various root causes ana

Abstract:
Project objectives: 1) Characterization of variation for yield heterosis in melon using Half-Diallele (HDA) design. 2) Development and implementation of image-based yield phenotyping in melon. 3) Characterization of genetic, epigenetic and transcriptional variation across 25 founder lines and selected hybrids. The epigentic part of this objective was modified during the course of the project: instead of characterization of chromatin structure in a single melon line through genome-wide mapping of nucleosomes using MNase-seq approach, we took advantage of rapid advancements in single-molecule se
