The Uniform Guidelines define criterion-related validity as, “Data showing that a selection procedure is predictive of, or significantly correlated with, important elements of job performance.”
Criterion-related validity studies can be conducted in one of two ways: using a predictive model or a concurrent model. A predictive model is conducted when applicant test scores are correlated to subsequent measures of job performance (e.g., six months after the tested applicants are hired). A concurrent model is conducted by
giving a selection procedure to incumbents who are currently on the job and then correlating these scores to current measures of job performance (e.g., performance review scores, supervisor ratings, etc.).

CDSCO and Phamacovigilance {Regulatory body in India}NEHA GUPTA
The Central Drugs Standard Control Organization (CDSCO) is India's national regulatory body for pharmaceuticals and medical devices. Operating under the Directorate General of Health Services, Ministry of Health & Family Welfare, Government of India, the CDSCO is responsible for approving new drugs, conducting clinical trials, setting standards for drugs, controlling the quality of imported drugs, and coordinating the activities of State Drug Control Organizations by providing expert advice.
Pharmacovigilance, on the other hand, is the science and activities related to the detection, assessment, understanding, and prevention of adverse effects or any other drug-related problems. The primary aim of pharmacovigilance is to ensure the safety and efficacy of medicines, thereby protecting public health.
In India, pharmacovigilance activities are monitored by the Pharmacovigilance Programme of India (PvPI), which works closely with CDSCO to collect, analyze, and act upon data regarding adverse drug reactions (ADRs). Together, they play a critical role in ensuring that the benefits of drugs outweigh their risks, maintaining high standards of patient safety, and promoting the rational use of medicines.

Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.

PASTA Bridge - A New Technique in PASTA Repairs: A Clinical Evaluation
1. PASTA Bridge - A New Technique in
PASTA Repairs: A Clinical Evaluation
Alan M Hirahara, MD, FRCSC
Private Practice
Sacramento, CA USA
2. Objective of Study
• To evaluate the clinical effectiveness of a new
PASTA repair technique – PASTA Bridge
• To introduce a novel technique in PASTA repair
that is significantly easier, carries less risk, does
not require arthroscopic knot tying, and is as
effective as current trans-tendon techniques
3. Introduction
• In the literature, PASTA lesions can cause significant
pain for patients
• Debridement alone of tears < 50% thickness can result in
good/excellent outcomes but can progress on to full
thickness tears (6.5-34.6%)
• Current repair techniques can lead to excellent results
but are technically challenging
4. Study Design
• Case-control study
• Collection period: 8/09 – 12/11
• Pain scores, ASES scores taken every month for 6
months
– ROM measured pre-op and monthly for 3 months post
– Date of discharge and date of return to work were noted
5. Study Design
• All patients with requiring a PASTA repair
• Inclusions:
– PASTA lesion > 25% thickness
• Exclusions:
– any post-operative trauma
– non-compliance with physical therapy protocol
• Failure to heal:
– Evaluated any symptoms 4-6 months post-op with repeat MRA or
surgery
6. PASTA Bridge Technique
• 17 gauge spinal needle punctures supraspinatus
tendon anterior and medial to tear
• 1.1 mm blunt Nitinol wire through spinal needle
followed by a 2.4 mm portal dialation instrument
followed by the drill spear & drill
• Create pilot hole and insert 2.4 mm
BioComposite SutureTak
7. PASTA Bridge Technique
• Repeat for second anchor posterior to tear
• A strand of suture from each anchor was tied in a
similar manner as the “double pulley” method
• Opposing two limbs were tensioned to pull the
knot taunt over the repair site, and fixated laterally
with a 4.75 mm BioComposite SwiveLock

15. Results
• No significant difference in
– VAS pain scores
– ASES scores
– Return to work
– Failures - 15.4% to 2.9%
• Significant difference in
– Days to discharge
16. Discussion
• The PASTABridge is just as effective as trans-tendon
repairs but
– Easy, percutaneous technique
– Minimal risk of damaging shoulder during surgery
– Proven biomechanical strength
• Will require a randomized controlled trial and larger
sample size to better evaluate the results
17. Discussion: ExtensionBridge
• Can be used to repair wide PASTA lesions that span
supraspinatous to infraspinatous
• These repairs are extremely challenging with any other
technique
18. Conclusion
• The PASTA Bridge is a viable, simple
technique to repair PASTA lesions that carries
minimal risk, compared with current trans-
tendon techniques
