    In this work, the possibility of using reactions of electrogenerated titrants with phenolic compounds was studied and a method for their coulometric determination in medicaments by galvanostatic coulometry was developed. The research objects were: rutin, salicylic acid and drugs containing phenolic compounds such as «Ascorutin», «Salicylic Paste» and «Salicylic Ointment» of Russian manufacture. Electrogenerated halogens (Cl2, Br2 and I2) and hexacyanoferrate(III)-ions were used as titrants. It was found that for the quantitative determination of phenolic acids, the optimal reagent is electrogenerated bromine, for rutin - electrogenerated bromine and iodine, and for ascorbic acid - any of the studied electrogenerated titrants (Cl2, Br2, I2 and [Fe(CN)6]3-). The correct definition was checked by the «entered-found» method, the error does not exceed 2%. As experimental studies have shown, our method of coulometric titration with electrogenated bromine and iodine is characterized by good reproducibility of results, expression, accuracy and can be used to determine phenolic compounds in drugs, for example, «Ascorutin» tablets. It should be noted that by our procedure it is possible to determine the spectrum of phenol-containing compounds (rutin, ascorbic and salicylic acids) in drugs without their preliminary separation. Therefore, the coulometric method using electrogenerated titrants can be recommended for the determination of salicylic, ascorbic acids and rutin in dosage forms. The proposed method is accurate and eliminates the experiment error in comparison with the Pharmacopoeic method

    The objects of the study were: rutin - as a representative of the class of flavonoids and polyphenols; salicylic acid as a representative of phenolic acids and drugs containing phenolic compounds such as “Ascorutin”, “Salicylic Paste” and “Salicylic Ointment”. The titrants used were electrogenated halogens (Cl2, Br2 and I2) and hexacyanoferrate (III) ions. Generation was carried out at a constant current strength of I = 10 mA, and the equivalence point was fixed biamperometrically with two polarized electrodes on the coulometric analyzer “Expert-006”. The selected halogens are not only capable of oxidizing phenolic compounds, but also enter into electrophilic substitution reactions of the benzene ring, while the hexacyanoferrate(III)-ions [Fe (CN)6]3- are mild oxidizing agents

    Bakalaura darba tēma – Māsu darba organizācija pacientu aprūpē rehabilitācijas centrā. Lai pasargātu pacientus no medicīnas kļūdām, māsu izglītībai jābūt atbilstošai un efektīvai. Uzsākot praktizēt, māsai jāprot pieņemt lēmumus, balstoties uz savām zināšanām un pieredzi klīniskajā praksē. Māsai jāplāno sava darba diena un jāizvirza darba prioritātes, lai izvairītos no kļūdām aprūpējot pacientus. Būtiska nozīme māsu darbā ir pacientu izglītošanai par medikamentozo aprūpi, un spēja uzņemties atbildību par savām darbībām, administrējot pacientam ordinētus medikamentus. Bez tam, rehabilitācijas centrā, jāprot sadarboties ar citiem speciālistiem, kuri ir iesaistīti pacienta rehabilitācijas procesā, lai kopā novērtētu pacienta funkcionēšanas spējas un uzstādītu īstermiņa rehabilitācijas mērķus. Kopumā, tas ietekmē pacienta drošību rehabilitācijas procesa laikā. Māsai jāorganizē savu darbu tā, lai pacients būtu koncentrēts uz savām spējām, lai panāktu labākus rehabilitācijas rezultātus un pasargātu pacientu no māsu darba “blakusefektiem”. Darba mērķis: noskaidrot māsu darba organizāciju pacientu aprūpē rehabilitācijas centrā. Bakalaura darbs sastāv no ievada, piecām nodaļām, deviņiem apakšnodaļām, secinājumiem, izmantotās literatūras saraksta un trim pielikumiem. Pirmajā daļā aplūkota rehabilitācija un tās mērķi.

To protect patients from medical negligence, nursing education should be appropriate and effective. But when creating a nurse should be able to make decisions based on their knowledge and experience in clinical practice. A nurse should plan her work day and set work priorities to prepare out of patient care. Patient education plays an important role in patient education, drug care and responsibility for their actions when prescribing medication to a patient. In addition, in a rehabilitation center, you should be able to work with other specialists involved in the rehabilitation of patients in order to jointly assess the patient’s capabilities and set prescription purposes. In general, they have a large impact on patient safety during rehabilitation. The nurse should organize her work in such a way that the patient focuses on her ability to achieve better results in rehabilitation and protect the patient from the “side effects” of care. The purpose of the thesis: to find out the organization of nursing care for the sick in a rehabilitation center. Bachelor’s work consists of introduction, five chapters, nine subsections, conclusions, a list of references and three applications. The first part is devoted to rehabilitation and its goals. The second part discusses the theory of nursing Dorothea Johnson regarding the organization of nursing care for patients in a rehabilitation center. The third part deals with key aspects of the organization of nursing work. The fourth part discusses the factors that shape the professional competence of nurses. The fifth part reflects the results of the study. The study used a quantitative research method, a research tool - a questionnaire. The total number of respondents is 63 out of 80 nurses working in a rehabilitation center. At the end of the work conclusions were made on the results of the study

    Denna uppsats beskriver en studie av svensk-ryska barns konsumtion av ryskspråkiga animeradefilmer och filmernas effekter för barnens språkutveckling och lärande. Studien bygger dels på enwebbenkät, dels på intervjuer med rysktalande föräldrar som bor i Sverige. 75 föräldrar till barn iåldrarna 1-11 år besvarade webbenkäten. Sammanlagt ingår 81 barn i enkätundersökningen. 9föräldrar till barn i åldrarna 2-6 år intervjuades. Majoriteten av barnen visar tecken på att filmernabidrar till en ökning av ordförrådet. Övervägande delen av föräldrarna uppger dessutom att filmernager upphov till samtal och inspirerar barnen till lek. Studien visar samband mellan barnensfilmkonsumtion och faktorer som ålder och färdigheter i det ryska språket. Effekterna av deryskspråkiga animerade filmerna för utvecklingen av barnens språkfärdigheter och föräldrarnas syn påbarnens mediekonsumtion diskuteras i ljuset av den sociokulturella teorin och Pierre Bourdieus teoriom disposition och kapital

    This paper describes our use of Prolog Word Experts (PWEs) in the Senseval II competition. We explain how we specify our PWEs as sequences of transformation rules and how they can be trained on sense tagged corpus data. We give a semantics of PWEs by translating them into first order predicate logic, and we describe how PWEs can be compiled into Prolog procedures. We furthermore discuss our results for the Swedish lexical sample task -- 63% (fine-grained score) for our best PWE and a second place in the ranking -- and speculate about avenues to further improvement
