| What kind of procedure is involved in reversing a vasectomy? | a microsurgical procedure requiring considerable skills | Men considering vasectomy should not think it is reversible. Reversal of vasectomy or vaso-vasotomy is a microsurgical procedure requiring considerable skills. Vaso-vasostomy is effective at achieving pregnancy in a variable percentage of cases but its success rate cannot be guaranteed. After reversal, sperm counts and motility are usually much lower than pre-vasectomy levels. | 103 | definition | 1.000 | Reversal of vasectomy or vaso-vasotomy is a microsurgical procedure requiring considerable skills. | 39 | page=39,block=0 | 0.700 | valid |
| What is the goal of the 'Fixed Day Static' strategy? | to fulfil the unmet demand for family planning, throughout the year on a regular and routine manner | 5. Background 5. ‘Fixed Day Static’ Approach 5. Advantages of FDS • • • ‘Fixed Day Static’ Strategy (FDS) is envisioned as one of the long term strategies to fulfil the unmet demand for family planning, throughout the year on a regular and routine manner. Currently camp approach for sterilization services is still being followed in most parts of the country. The only improvement that has happened is that the ‘fixed day camps’ have replaced the irregular and infrequent ‘camps’ in most places so that the clients are at least aware that services are going to be rendered to them on a particular day and place for which they can prepare for. This approach of providing FP services is acknowledged as a temporary solution to the availability of routine services as it raises concerns on quality. | 155 | definition | 1.000 | Advantages of FDS • • • ‘Fixed Day Static’ Strategy (FDS) is envisioned as one of the long term strategies to fulfil the unmet demand for family planning, throughout the year on a regular and routine manner. | 48 | page=48,block=0 | 0.700 | |
| What type of waste is similar to household trash? | The waste that poses no risk of infections. | It is important to dispose off all kinds of waste properly as improper disposal of biomedical waste poses health risk to the health care providers and community. All waste in a health facility can be divided into: The waste that poses no risk of infections. It is similar to household trash. Material generated in the management of clients, including blood, blood products and other body fluids, bandages/surgical sponges and organic waste such as human tissues, body parts,placenta and products of conception. Like needles, blades, broken glass etc. Health facilities should use color coded bags or containers to collect different types of waste like Black bin: for general waste. White/Blue bin/Puncture-proof container: for sharps such as needles, blades, broken glass etc. Yellow bin: for anatomical waste such as placenta, body parts, swabs etc. | 214 | definition | 1.000 | All waste in a health facility can be divided into: The waste that poses no risk of infections.

| What is the role of the knowledge assessment questionnaires in the training manual? | to assess the knowledge before, during and after the training | The knowledge assessment questionnaires as provided in the Annexure in the ‘Reference Manual for Female & Male Sterilization’ respectively, is designed to assess the knowledge before, during and after the training. The trainer can use the result to customize the training to best suit the trainees. In a competency based training the performance of trainees will be assessed using the skill check lists as provided in the Annexure in the ‘Reference Manual for Female & Male Sterilization’. Trainees should not begin supervised surgical practice until the trainer is satisfied of their skill on the model. Although the minimum number of cases to assist & perform has been specified, trainee may not still be competent and confident to perform independently and require some more clinical practice than others. | 152 | definition | 1.000 | The knowledge assessment questionnaires as provided in the Annexure in the ‘Reference Manual for Female & Male Sterilization’ respectively, is designed to assess the knowledge before, during and after the training. | 58 | page=58,block=4 | 0.700 | |
| How is quality assurance described in sterilization services? | a cyclical process involving assessment leading to improvement, followed by further assessment and improvement. | Chapter 8. Quality Assurance in Sterilization Services The Quality in Sterilization services is an essential component to assure client’s satisfaction. This section is important for the service providers to enable them in delivering sterilization services as per the standards and guidelines. It is also important for program managers as it helps them in monitoring of the program as per standards. Quality Assurance (QA) may be defined as a cyclical process involving assessment leading to improvement, followed by further assessment and improvement. It is designed to objectively and systematically monitor and evaluate services offered to clients in accordance with pre- established standards and to resolve identified problems and pursue opportunities for improving services, leading to client satisfaction. | 440 | definition | 1.000 | Quality Assurance (QA) may be defined as a cyclical process involving assessment leading to improvement, followed by further assessment and improvement.

| What is the goal of the facility observation checklist used by the District QAC? | to assess the readiness of facilities in terms of the requisite inputs for providing sterilization services | The eligible couple registers (EC Registers) and the sterilization registers maintained at the government health facilities provide detailed information on the sterilization services provided to the eligible couples. During the routine monitoring visits by the programme managers, a sample of these records should be reviewed. The report on the basis of the routine record reviews undertaken by the different members of the team should be compiled quarterly. Facility assessment (using the facility observation checklist provided in Annexure 6) should be done quarterly by the District QAC to assess at least 10 per cent of the facilities. The purpose of this tool is to assess the readiness of facilities in terms of the requisite inputs for providing sterilization services. This checklist will be uniformly enforced to all identified static facilities, camps and accredited private facilities. | 668 | definition | 1.000 | The purpose of this tool is to assess the readiness of facilities in terms of the requisite inputs for providing sterilization services. | 66 | page=66,block=0 | ||
| What is the purpose of informed choice in healthcare? | to ensure that all clients choose the best option/s for their health care needs after getting full information about all available options | Service providers need to listen attentively and be prepared to answer questions the client may have and address problems she/ he has experienced after undergoing the procedure. This helps the client cope with common problems or side effects. The concepts of informed choice and informed consent are related but quite different in their intent. The purpose of informed choice is to ensure that all clients choose the best option/s for their health care needs after getting full information about all available options. Informed consent means that a client understands the surgical procedure and other options and then decides to receive the care. informed consent alone does not constitute informed choice (Annexure 1). The client's signature or putting her thumb impression on an informed consent form is the legal authorization for the sterilization procedure to be performed. | 379 | definition | 1.000 | The purpose of informed choice is to ensure that all clients choose the best option/s for their health care needs after getting full information about all available options. | 23 | |||
| What is the purpose of utility gloves in clinical practice? | used to clean the used instruments, linens, surfaces and handling waste | In high case load (like camp settings), in order to prevent re-colonization of the skin by micro-organisms, the surgical staff should do surgical scrub every hour or after every five cases (whichever is earlier) or if the surgeon (and/or the surgical stuff) goes out of the OT, or touches any infected item or if the glove is torn. In between antiseptic alcohol scrub should be done All health service providers should wear protecting gloves during all procedures involving contact with any client and biological fluids. Three types of gloves are used in the clinical practice: Examination: used for taking intravenous samples; in OPD while performing bimanual examination of non-pregnant women; touching intact skin and mucosa. Surgical: used for surgical procedures. Utility: used to clean the used instruments, linens, surfaces and handling waste. | 778 | definition | 1.000 | Utility: used to clean the used instruments, linens, surfaces and handling waste. | 53 | page=53,block=0 | 0.700 | valid |
| What is an important element of quality of care in healthcare? | the knowledge, skill and attitude of health care providers during their service delivery | 7. Training Needs Assessment Calculation of the Training Load 7. Criteria for Designation of ‘Training Centres’ 7. Criteria for Designation of ‘Trainers’ An important element of Quality of care is dependent on the knowledge, skill and attitude of health care providers during their service delivery. A situational analysis of the current status of service providers at the different levels of health facilities in the district will help to identify the gaps and performances. This will help to determine and plan the most appropriate interventions such as Refresher Training and Induction Skill Training, so that a cadre of competent service providers can be developed. Based upon the need of the districts the service providers can be trained in various sterilization procedures. The training load can be calculated using the following RAG analysis. | 210 | definition | 1.000 | Criteria for Designation of ‘Trainers’ An important element of Quality of care is dependent on the knowledge, skill and attitude of health care providers during their service delivery. | 56 | page=56,block=0 |
