Screening for Diabetes. In view of the steady increase of life expectancy and the corresponding rise of chronic disease rates during the past decade, health promotion and primary and secondary preventive health services have become more and more important (Shippee et al., 2012). There is now an emphasis on services which aim to prevent disease and illness through disease surveillance, and surveillance for disability and other health problems, providing advice and counselling on good health maintenance and well-being through living a healthy lifestyle (DoH, 1989). This is often demonstrated in screening programmes that have been developed to comply with the idea of health checks and surveillance. Screening is a process of identifying apparently healthy people who may be at increased risk of a disease or condition (Xxxxxxx et al., 2013). They can then be offered information, further tests and appropriate treatment to reduce their risk or any complications arising from the disease or condition (Xxxxx et al., 2013). Screening is not the same as diagnosis: most screening programmes look for risk factors for a particular disease of condition. Some individuals with these risk factors will never develop the condition or disease, and some who develop the disease or condition will not be picked up by screening. When choosing who to screen and for which conditions, the benefits are weighed against the xxxxx (Xxxxxx & X'Xxxxxx, 2010; UK National Screening Committee, 2014). It is well-recognised that T2D has become a huge burden for the worldwide general adult population (UK National Screening Committee, 2008, 2014). The review by the National Screening Committee in 2014 found that interest in screening had been stimulated by a number of factors including the rising number of people with diabetes and with people with raised blood sugar who do not meet the formal level for a diagnosis of diabetes. The committee recognised that primary prevention measures (such as lifestyle change) were having a limited effect, increased understanding of how raised blood sugar (at any level) related to a broad range of vascular risk, change in international views on testing, improvement in management of diagnosed diabetes and developments in treatment of people with raised blood sugar but who were not diabetic. The review came to the conclusion that, on the balance of the evidence, universal screening was not recommended. However, the report suggested that this did not rule out the value of early detection in h...

  • Product Recall (a) If a recall is required by applicable Law, or if Buyer or Supplier reasonably determines that a recall is advisable because the goods may create a potential safety hazard, are not in compliance with any applicable code, standard or legal requirement, or contain a defect or non-conformance with the requirements of this Order occurring or likely to occur in multiple goods, which such defects or non-conformances are substantially similar or have substantially similar causes or effects (collectively a “Serial Defect”), the parties shall promptly communicate such facts to each other. At Buyer’s request, Supplier shall promptly develop a corrective action plan satisfactory to Buyer, which shall include all actions required to recall and/or repair the goods and any actions required by applicable Law (“Corrective Action Plan”) for Buyer’s review and approval. At Buyer’s election, Xxxxx may develop the Corrective Action Plan. In no event shall Buyer and Supplier’s failure to agree on the Corrective Action Plan delay the timely notification of a potential safety hazard, non-compliance or Serial Defect to users of the goods, cause either party to be non-compliant with applicable Law or prevent Buyer from taking reasonable actions to prevent injury or damage to persons, equipment or other property. Supplier and Buyer shall cooperate with and assist each other in any corrective actions and/or filings, if applicable.

  • Product Recalls The Company is not aware of any pattern or series of claims against the Company or any of its subsidiaries which reasonably could be expected to result in a generalized product recall relating to products sold by the Company or any of its subsidiaries, regardless of whether such product recall is formal, informal, voluntary or involuntary.

  • Product Quality 4.1 The following provisions shall apply to Product after Production:

  • Product Testing Upon request, Customer shall provide Operator a laboratory report for each Product delivery by Customer or Customer’s supplier. Operator will not be obligated to receive Contaminated Product for throughput across the Berths, nor will Operator be obligated to accept Product that fails to meet the quality specifications set forth in the arrival notice.

  • Product ACCEPTANCE Unless otherwise provided by mutual agreement of the Authorized User and the Contractor, Authorized User(s) shall have thirty (30) days from the date of delivery to accept hardware products and sixty (60) days from the date of delivery to accept all other Product. Where the Contractor is responsible for installation, acceptance shall be from completion of installation. Failure to provide notice of acceptance or rejection or a deficiency statement to the Contractor by the end of the period provided for under this clause constitutes acceptance by the Authorized User(s) as of the expiration of that period. The License Term shall be extended by the time periods allowed for trial use, testing and acceptance unless the Commissioner or Authorized User agrees to accept the Product at completion of trial use. Unless otherwise provided by mutual agreement of the Authorized User and the Contractor, Authorized User shall have the option to run testing on the Product prior to acceptance, such tests and data sets to be specified by User. Where using its own data or tests, Authorized User must have the tests or representative set of data available upon delivery. This demonstration will take the form of a documented installation test, capable of observation by the Authorized User, and shall be made part of the Contractor’s standard documentation. The test data shall remain accessible to the Authorized User after completion of the test. In the event that the documented installation test cannot be completed successfully within the specified acceptance period, and the Contractor or Product is responsible for the delay, Authorized User shall have the option to cancel the order in whole or in part, or to extend the testing period for an additional thirty (30) day increment. Authorized User shall notify Contractor of acceptance upon successful completion of the documented installation test. Such cancellation shall not give rise to any cause of action against the Authorized User for damages, loss of profits, expenses, or other remuneration of any kind. If the Authorized User elects to provide a deficiency statement specifying how the Product fails to meet the specifications within the testing period, Contractor shall have thirty (30) days to correct the deficiency, and the Authorized User shall have an additional sixty (60) days to evaluate the Product as provided herein. If the Product does not meet the specifications at the end of the extended testing period, Authorized User, upon prior written notice to Contractor, may then reject the Product and return all defective Product to Contractor, and Contractor shall refund any monies paid by the Authorized User to Contractor therefor. Costs and liabilities associated with a failure of the Product to perform in accordance with the functionality tests or product specifications during the acceptance period shall be borne fully by Contractor to the extent that said costs or liabilities shall not have been caused by negligent or willful acts or omissions of the Authorized User’s agents or employees. Said costs shall be limited to the amounts set forth in the Limitation of Liability Clause for any liability for costs incurred at the direction or recommendation of Contractor.
