There are other versions of the MAST screening tool, all of which can be self-administered or via interview with someone who is trained in the tool being used. All MAST screening tools are scored on a point scale system. [2] As stated on the Project Cork website, [2] there are 25 questions to the MAST
[1] [2] Each item on the scale is scored independently, and the summation of the scores yields an aggregate value that correlates to the severity of alcohol withdrawal, with ranges of scores designed to prompt specific management decisions such as the administration of benzodiazepines. The maximum score is 67; Mild alcohol withdrawal is defined ...
Medical calculators arose because modern medicine makes frequent use of scores and indices that put physicians' memory and calculation skills to the test. [2] The advent of personal computers, the Internet and Web, and more recently personal digital assistants (PDAs) have formed an environment conducive to their development, spread and use.
The CRAFFT 2.1 screening tool begins with past-12-month frequency items, rather than the previous "yes/no" question for any use over the past year. A recent study examining these opening yes/no questions found that they had relatively low sensitivity in identifying youth with any past-12-month alcohol or marijuana use (62% and 72%, respectively ...
These large antennas are typically designed to cover 6 to 26 MHz but even larger ones have been built which operate as low as 2 MHz. Power ratings are available up to 500 kW. Instead of the elements being driven in parallel, attached to a central transmission line, the elements are driven in series, adjacent elements connected at the outer edges.
The MoCA is a one-page 30-point test administered in approximately 10 minutes. [2] The test and administration instructions are available for clinicians online. The test is available in 46 languages and dialects (as of 2017). In this clock drawing task, the subject is asked to draw a clock with the hours and showing the time 2:30. Successive ...
Astra 1P (also known as SES-24) is an Astra communications satellite, built by Thales Alenia Space for owner/operator SES.Launched by SpaceX on 20 June 2024, the satellite is positioned in geostationary orbit, in SES's primary European broadcasting slot at 19.2° East, where it has joined and will eventually replace the Astra 1KR, Astra 1L, Astra 1M, and Astra 1N satellites currently stationed ...
The capsize screening formula (CSF) is a controversial method of establishing the ability of boats to resist capsizing. It is defined for sailboats as: Beam / ((Displacement/64.2) 1/3), with Displacement measured in pounds, and Beam in feet. A lower figure supposedly indicates greater stability, however the calculation does not consider factors ...
