Relationship Past and Present Health Problems Summary: (Doctor’s use) Informed Consent PATIENT NAME: Date of Birth: To the patient: Please read this entire document prior to signing. It is important that you understand the information contained in this document. Please ask questions before you sign if there is anything that is unclear. The nature of the chiropractic adjustment. The primary treatment i use as a Doctor of Chiropractic is spinal manipulative therapy. I may use my hands or a mechanical instrument called an Activator in order to move your joints to improve their function, alignment and reduce nearby nerve irritation. You may feel a “click” or “pop,” and you may feel movement of the joints during the adjustment. Various ancillary procedures, such as massage, trigger point therapy, hot or cold packs, electric muscle stimulation, therapeutic ultrasound, or rehab exercises may also be used to aid in treatment and to prepare your body for the adjustments. Possible risks and probability of those risks occurring. By any standard, chiropractic adjustment is a conservative and very safe procedure. Chiropractic, as well as all other health professions, is associated with potential risks in the delivery of treatment. Therefore it is necessary to inform the patient of such risks prior to initiating care. While Chiropractic treatment is remarkably safe, you need to be informed about the potential risks related to your care to allow you to be fully informed before consenting to treatment. Chiropractic is a system of health care delivery and therefore, as...
Tuberculosis. 4.2.4.1. In accordance with Sections 25-1-122 and 25-4-501, C.R.S., DPHE maintains a system to track and document communicable disease including active tuberculosis (TB) disease. Latent (noninfectious) TB infection, however, is not a reportable condition, which severely limits DPHE efforts in designing and implementing TB elimination plans. Since most active TB disease in Colorado results from activation of latent infection, it is increasingly important for DPHE to be able to monitor latent TB screening, screening results, and treatment. The requested Medicaid claims data is essential for routine public health surveillance and to accurately track screening and treatment completion and the provision of subsequent follow up care.
Tuberculosis. Sites in NY & PA In order for youth and adults to work with children and the elderly population in your community, the states of NY & PA require a recent TB test. The date of your student’s and adult leader’s tuberculosis test as well as the outcome of that test must be within the past 2 years and indicated on this form. We are not requiring that participants get Tuberculosis testing, but not having testing, or leaving this section blank, will prevent them from working with the above populations. Please circle one of the following: I have taken the test I have not taken the test If you have taken the test, please provide date of test and outcome:
Tuberculosis. Individuals with silicosis are at increased risk to develop pulmonary tuberculosis, if exposed to tuberculosis bacteria. Individuals with chronic silicosis have a three-fold higher risk of contracting tuberculosis than similar individuals without silicosis. Kidney Disease: Several studies have reported excess cases of kidney diseases, including end stage renal disease, among silica-exposed workers. For additional information on the subject, the following may be consulted: "Kidney Disease and Silicosis”, Nephron, Volume 85, pp. 14-19 (2000). Non-Malignant Respiratory Diseases: The reader is referred to Section 3.5 of the NIOSH Special Hazard Review cited below, for information concerning the association between exposure to crystalline silica and chronic bronchitis, emphysema and small airways disease. There are studies that disclose an association between dusts found in various mining occupations and non-malignant respiratory diseases, particularly among smokers. It is unclear whether the observed associations exist only with underlying silicosis, only among smokers, or result from exposure to mineral dusts generally (independent of the presence or absence of crystalline silica, or the level of crystalline silica in the dust). Sources of information: The NIOSH Hazard Review - Occupational Effects of Occupational Exposure to Respirable Crystalline Silica published in April 2002 summarizes and discusses the medical and epidemiological literature on the health risks and diseases associated with occupational exposures to respirable crystalline silica. The NIOSH Hazard Review should be consulted for additional information, and citations to published studies on health risks and diseases associated with occupational exposure to respirable crystalline silica. The NIOSH Hazard Review is available from NIOSH - Publications Dissemination, 0000 Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx, XX 00000, or through the NIOSH web site, xxx.xxx.xxx/xxxxx/xxxxxx/xxxxxx, then click on the link “NIOSH Hazard Review: Health Effects of Occupational Exposure to Respirable Crystalline Silica”.

Tuberculosis. In the event an employee has a health plan made available through the City, and such plan provides for immunizations at no cost to the employee, such plan may be utilized to fulfill the provisions of this paragraph. The City shall provide, at its cost, Hepatitis B vaccine immunization and Hepatitis C screening for members whose health plans do not provide these benefits. Medical treatments and immunizations shall also be provided for any other diseases as recommended by the Department Physician and approved by the Chief of the Department. In the event the current kidney and bladder screening program is discontinued, the City shall notify the Union in advance and meet and confer over the impact.
Tuberculosis. Tuberculosis is both a medical condition and a social problem and is linked to poverty related conditions. Problems of overcrowding and poor social conditions as well as environmental factors are contributory factors to its increased burden. The World Health Organisation (WHO) estimates that about 1% of South Africans (roughly 490,000) contracted Tuberculosis (TB) in 2008, giving an incidence rate of 949 TB cases per 100,000 population. The incidence is much higher in high risk concentrate settings such as the mines and prisons, with the former estimated at between 3,000 and 7,000 cases per 100,000 per population. The current HIV/TB co-infection rate exceeds 70%. Due to late detection, poor treatment, management and failure to retain TB patients on treatment, drug-resistant forms of TB (XDR-TB and MDR-TB) have increased significantly, with about 5,000 and 500 diagnosed respectively in 2009. Although the current policy by the Department of Health is that all DR-TB patients should be hospitalised until they are cured, there are about 2,000 beds available for DR-TB treatment and management. The combination of TB, HIV and DR-TB has led to a situation where TB is the number one common cause of death among infected South Africans (13 out of every 100 deaths). Although resources have been made available for TB control, treatment and management, the bulk of these are routed, as earmarked funds, through different programmes, particularly, districts systems development, drug supply and hospital management. As a result, a significant amount of the resources end up being utilised for other purposes. Consequently, it is increasingly proving difficult to keep track of the allocations, expenditure and accountability of these funds.
