Objectives To examine the prevalence, determinants, safety perceptions, effectiveness and knowledge of herbal medicines (HMs) reasons for non-hospital utilisation. Design Cross-sectional study. Setting Ekiti state, southwest Nigeria. Participants A representative sample (n=1600) adults (18 years or above) currently living in Nigeria at least 2 years, time Results The majority respondents (85% n=1265) have used HMs last years. Across economic classes use, middle income (88.3%) was highest...
A significant number of UK fire fatalities have been reported to involve textiles contaminated with emollients. In the following study, flammability a variety fabrics containing 14 different emollients, including paraffin-free creams, was evaluated. This is first time impact presence such large range emollients has examined. Horizontal burn tests were conducted on emollient-contaminated fabrics. Significantly earlier ignition noted upon heating for all (p < 0.001) when compared behaviour...
This study presents a method of simultaneous detection both traditional and newly emerged drugs abuse in wastewater. The is based on solid phase extraction gas chromatography-mass spectrometry analysis. analytical separates 25 from different classes including amphetamines, cathinones, tropane alkaloids, piperazines plus ketamine, amitriptyline, diazepam morphine. In addition, newer compounds (methcathinone, mephedrone, butylone), isomers (1-(2-methoxyphenyl) piperazine, 1-(4-methoxyphenyl)...
A novel method for the separation of benzylpiperazine and phenylpiperazine drugs congeners is described applied to street samples.
Background: the potential fire risk of fabrics impregnated with emollients has been described within health service, including ignition bandages. The role in fatalities have also included coroner reports, as accelerating fires when present. Aims: although changes burning behaviour is known, no standard tests carried out on bandages which are often used conjunction emollients. Method: using a vertical flammability test, viscose bandage was compared to nine dried low high and non-paraffin...
ABSTRACT Multiple techniques for solid phase adsorption of 3-[(3-cholamidopropyl)dimethylammonio]-1-propanesulfonate (CHAPS) were evaluated. Both the porous polystyrene divinylbenzene matrices (BioBeads SMTM) and Extracti GelTM D reduced CHAPS to significantly below its critical micellar concentration while Extracti-GelTM removed detectable limits. Bio-Bead extraction correlated with surface area bead type. SM-16 beads, largest effective area, nearly 97% detergent. For a given amount...
How is it diagnosed?Always ask people presenting with burns about use of emollients.To improve awareness and reporting the condition, routinely record emollient in medical records. managed?Management same as not related to use. can risk harm be minimised?Advise patients continue using emollients they are an important effective treatment there no alternative for dry skin inflammatory conditions; however, make everyone aware that residue gets into materials increases their...
SUMMARY The Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency update in 2018 reported 50 fatal fires linked with emollient use. It detailed the fire risk new advice aimed at service health care professionals reporting of such incidents educating public on safer use emollients. This study investigates how this has been communicated internally publicly, 52 Fire Rescue Services (FRSs) websites and, 191 Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCGs), 21 Local Health Boards (LHBs) formularies accessed. A...
