All ART clinics, from those just starting out to the well established, must employ the latest equipment and implement the best practices, while ensuring that their resources are effectively engaged to optimize patient outcomes. This is a tenet of the fiduciary role of physicians and it is increasingly recognized as a quantifiable goal regulated by formal certifications and accreditations. Quality management protocols such as those proposed by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) are being rapidly adopted as standards of measure.    Quality Management in ART Clinics: A Practical Guide provides easily adoptable ways to implement and improve formalized quality management systems. Essential to any clinic to achieve best practices and maintenance of formal regulatory certifications, this book brings together the know-how of experienced opinion leaders operating in key areas worldwide. The book offers an overview of primary regulations in the ART field, with attention to quality management demands, and links specific requirements to practical steps for implementation. Filled with process and procedure examples, flow diagrams and administrative form templates, this book is the first of its kind, gathering the necessary elements for optimizing practice, management, and quality assurance. 606 $aAIDS (Disease)$xTreatment 606 $aMedical care$xQuality control 615 0$aAIDS (Disease)$xTreatment. 615 0$aMedical care$xQuality control. 676 $a616.692 701 $aBento$b Fabiola$01758988 701 $aEsteves$b Sandro$01758989 701 $aAgarwal$b Ashok$0789686 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910438007203321 996 $aQuality management in ART clinics$94197331 997 $aUNINA LEADER 04259nam 2200757Ia 450 001 9910975311603321 005 20200520144314.0 010 $a9786612276958 010 $a9781282276956 010 $a1282276956 010 $a9789027291356 010 $a9027291357 024 7 $a10.1075/slcs.94 035 $a(CKB)1000000000535029 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000188933 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11173444 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000188933 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10154350 035 $a(PQKB)10676210 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC622744 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL622744 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10212582 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL227695 035 $a(OCoLC)233697042 035 $a(DE-B1597)721800 035 $a(DE-B1597)9789027291356 035 $a(EXLCZ)991000000000535029 100 $a20070912d2007 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcn||||||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 00$aLanguage complexity $etypology, contact, change /$fedited by Matti Miestamo, Kaius Sinnemaki, Fred Karlsson 205 $a1st ed. 210 $aPhiladelphia $cJ.

The paper first describes the lexicon used from a structural point of view. It then examines the use of multifunctional lexical items in comparison to English. The results of these studies show, that 1) there is no bound morphology (neither derivational nor inflectional) in the variety studied and, 2) there is much more multifunctionality in the pidgin text than in the English texts. Finally, it is argued that the results show that the lexicon studied can indeed be described as simple and efficient. 410 0$aStudies in language companion series ;$vv. 94. 606 $aTypology (Linguistics) 606 $aLanguages in contact 606 $aLinguistic change 606 $aCreole dialects 606 $aPidgin languages 615 0$aTypology (Linguistics) 615 0$aLanguages in contact. 615 0$aLinguistic change. 615 0$aCreole dialects. 615 0$aPidgin languages. 676 $a410 701 $aMiestamo$b Matti$f1972-$01801212 701 $aSinnemaki$b Kaius$01203833 701 $aKarlsson$b Fred$0676697 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910975311603321 996 $aLanguage complexity$94346338 997 $aUNINA LEADER 02834nam 22004815 450 001 9910616356603321 005 20251009103134.0 010 $a9783031092787$b(electronic bk.) 010 $z9783031092770 024 7 $a10.1007/978-3-031-09278-7 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC7101979 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL7101979 035 $a(CKB)24950448700041 035 $a(DE-He213)978-3-031-09278-7 035 $a(EXLCZ)9924950448700041 100 $a20220928d2022 u| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcnu|||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aMichael Palaiologos and the Publics of the Byzantine Empire in Exile, c.1223?1259 /$fby Aleksandar Jovanovi? 205 $a1st ed. 2022. 210 1$aCham :$cSpringer International Publishing :$cImprint: Palgrave Macmillan,$d2022. 215 $a1 online resource (268 pages) 225 1 $aNew Approaches to Byzantine History and Culture,$x2730-9371 311 08$aPrint version: Jovanovi?, Aleksandar Michael Palaiologos and the Publics of the Byzantine Empire in Exile, C. 1223-1259 Cham : Springer International Publishing AG,c2022 9783031092770 327 $a1.

Conclusion. 330 $aThis book follows the public life of Michael Palaiologos from his early days and upbringing, through to his assumption of the Byzantine imperial throne in 1258. It explores multiple narratives, highlighting the various public communities in the Byzantine polity, primarily focusing on intellectuals and clerks rather than the emperor himself. Drawing on insights from power relations, studies of class and the public sphere, this book provides an account of thirteenth-century Byzantium that highlights the role of communicative and symbolic actions in the public sphere, and argues they were integral to Palaiologos' political success.
