Role of W.A.R. Score in Predicting Wound Infection
Abstract: In clinical practice, chronic wounds are a major difficulty that are frequently made worse by the infection risk. However, the lack of precise standards for evaluating the risk of infection and establishing the need for and length of time for systemic antibiotics leads to the overuse and abuse of these drugs, which increases the risk of side effects and the development of antibiotic resistance. To close this gap, the development …

Assessment of Acoustic Noise Generated from Machines in a Mechanical Workshop Using 1-Octave Band Frequency Analysis
Abstract: Acoustic noise is one of the prominent occupational health hazards, particularly in manufacturing and process industries. Prolonged exposure to loud noise can cause noise induced hearing loss of the exposed personnel. Limiting the exposure to noise intensity within its permissible exposure limit is adopted as one of the administrative control measures to reduce the risk of hearing loss. However, frequency specific assessment of occupational noise exposure is limited. Here, we …
