This is the presentation file I promised earlier. I hope to write up some notes to accompany the presentation as there was extra detail in more talk that was absent from the slides. I always feel that a presentation ends up boring if the talk is just someone reading slide content.
Note: The file uses the Open Document Format.
I saw this story in The Register and thought it deserved wider coverage.

Note: I had this as a page rather than a post. I have now changed this but the time of the post is a bit out!
I have recently had to do a presentation on validating a new method. I will post the presentation here soon. Note: The presentation was done using openoffice and is the odp open file format.
I will also try to contribute more than I have. My life has been busy and I will try to find 5 minutes here and there to add some minor content.
I am surprised by this report. I don’t know whether the figures are a ‘real’ disaster or part of political fighting, as the report is by the Conservative Party. I don’t know wether the figures are part of a trend or not. The figures may actually be lower than five or ten years ago, its the size the of the NHS that could make the figures look bad.
I do find it worrying about that one trust has had 1000 + incidents in two years, which is getting close to two a day.
This is an interesting use of maggots. I have heard of the use of maggots at removing dead tissue etc but to collect the secretions to use as a potential antibiotic is an interesting proposition.
