The parts of the mnemonic are: Onset of the event What the patient was doing when it started (active, inactive, stressed, etc.), whether the patient believes that activity prompted the pain, [2] and whether the onset was sudden, gradual or part of an ongoing chronic problem.

The testing events are conducted in accordance with standards detailed in Army FM 7–22: Army Physical Readiness Training.Prior to the start of each event, the standard is read aloud, followed by a demonstration in which an individual demonstrates both the correct exercise and any disqualifying behaviors which would make the exercise incorrect.
Human performance technology (HPT), also known as human performance improvement (HPI), or human performance assessment (HPA), is a field of study related to process improvement methodologies such as organization development, motivation, instructional technology, human factors, learning, performance support systems, knowledge management, and ...
1980 saw the first year of the Emergency Response Guidebook in its modern form. The book grew significantly from 87 pages in prior editions, to just over 140 pages, introducing the color coded sections, alongside general guide pages that described the response to a wide number of similar substances, replacing the specific entries for individual ...
The hypothalamic–pituitary–thyroid axis (HPT axis for short, a.k.a. thyroid homeostasis or thyrotropic feedback control) is part of the neuroendocrine system responsible for the regulation of metabolism and also responds to stress. As its name suggests, it depends upon the hypothalamus, the pituitary gland, and the thyroid gland.
During the constrained HPT process, the material experiences shear deformation between a fixed and a rotating anvil, without losing its original dimensions. High pressure torsion (HPT) can be traced back to the experiments that won Percy Bridgman the 1946 Nobel Prize in Physics , though its use in metal processing is considerably more recent.
