Cloud-Based Essentail Home Services Aggrregator

Cloud-based Home services aggregator aims to provide the much needed and essential everyday services to the consumers in an easy and affordable manner. This project basically brings technology to the doorsteps of both the employee and the employer and helps them connect in a never before manner.  The importance and impact of this paper is clearly visible in the present and pressing times of the Covid epidemic. This project demonstrates a workflow model that can function irrespective of the epidemic conditions and at the same time minimize the risk of virus infection by reducing people to people contact. Despite the reduction in contact the work quality is not affected. Tough times such as an epidemic call on for these services as essential and important much more than ever. Through this project we bring a common platform to those who provide the services and those who need it. The scope of the provided services ranges from basic home cleaning, car wash, laundry to much more. The project also aims to bring to platform the large - feature phone using - Indian workforce. The limited capabilities of the existing infrastructure hinder this section of workforce from connecting to better work opportunities. A potentially large number of footsteps on the side may cause it to render slowly. And so, project is built up in cloud technology

Auditing of prescriptions in relation to diarrhea in children below 5 years of age: a multicenter study

Background: This study was planned to determine the prescribing pattern of drugs in children below 5 years of age suffering from diarrhea by different categories of doctors in the city of Jaipur (Rajasthan).Methods: This observational retrospective study was conducted in the Pediatric Outpatient Department of SMS Medical College and other hospitals in Jaipur (Rajasthan). In this study, 300 prescription (10% of total prescription) of the children aged below 5 years, suffering from acute diarrhea, were randomly selected.Results: As alone, norfloxacin was noted in 49.2% prescriptions followed by ofloxacin in 24.6% out of 61 prescriptions. In combination, the most common antimicrobial (77.78%) prescribed was norfloxacin with either metronidazole or tinidazole.Conclusions: Antimicrobials should be prescribed rationally for pediatric patients suffering from diarrhea to avoid potential adverse events and increased cost of the treatment . Regular prescription audits in hospitals should be undertaken to promote rational use of drugs

Service Quality Measurement: The Case of Railway Freight Services

This article identifies the attributes which customers use to evaluate the quality of railway freight services and develops a comprehensive instrument, RAILQUAL, that can be used by the railways for collecting feedback from customers. This would help them to monitor, control, and improve their service and competitiveness. It can also be used as an evaluation tool for comparing the performance of its zones and divisions. </jats:p

Phytohormonal regulation of S-adenosylmethionine synthetase and S-adenosylmethionine levels in dwarf pea epicotyls

AbstractA significant stimulation (2- to 2.5-fold) of AdoMet synthetase was witnessed in glibberellicd acid (GA3, 1μM)-treated epicotyls of the dwarf pea (Pisum sativum). This was accompanied by a 2.4-fold increase in the endogenous pool of S-adenosylmethionine. Both abscisic acid (10 μM) and cycloheximide (20 μgml) inhibited the GA3-mediated enhancement of AdoMet synthetase activity. Three isozymes of AdoMet synthetase were detected in GA3-treated epicotyls, whereas a single activity peak was observed in controls. Thus, GA3 seems to control the induction of two new isozymes of AdoMet synthetase in the dwarf pea. By contrast, the tall pea exhibited three isozymes of AdoMet synthetase even in the absence of GA3 treatment. High concentration of L-methionine (2 mM) mimicked the GA3-elicited induction of two new isozymes of AdoMet synthetase in dwarf pea epicotyls

Knowledge, Attitude, and Perception of the Clinicians, Nurses, Pharmacists, Patients, and Public on Compounding, Dispensing, and Labeling services of Pharmacists in a hospital

Background: A pharmacist is a professional who dispenses medicines, counsels patients, and advises health care stakeholders on the rational use of medicines. The study is therefore an attempt to determine the awareness about the pharmacy profession among stakeholders. Material methods: This is an exploratory and descriptive study, designed to describe and explore the Knowledge, Attitude, and Perception (KAP) of the role of a pharmacist in the compounding, dispensing, and labeling of drugs. The statements included in the questionnaire were largely based on the guidelines issued by the Pharmacy Council of India (PCI). Questionnaires were randomly provided to clinicians, pharmacists, nurses, public, and patients. The questionnaire was then taken back and kept for analysis of response. 514 stakeholders participated in the study. The results are expressed as percentages and frequencies. Results: All stakeholders agreed that during compounding, dispensing, and labeling, pharmacists ensure that drug products should match the prescription and appropriately compounded, packed, and labeled. All stakeholders except nurse (99%) agreed that during compounding, dispensing and labeling pharmacist ensure that drug product is within the expiry date. 34.9% of patients agreed that while dispensing the drug to the patient/attendants, appropriate information on drugs is given by the pharmacist. Conclusion: The present study reveals that clinicians and nurses do not have sufficient confidence on the supportive role of a pharmacist in the health care team for better patient care. The pharmacist also needs to work proactively and through his knowledge, expertise and skills generate confidence amongst the patient and health workers that he can perform his expanded role effectively and thus promote patient health</jats:p
