BACKGROUND: Surgical safety checklists is a common tool to prevent human fallacies and may help in avoiding complications .Major surgeries like neurosurgery need a thorough preparation and a specic checklist tailored to neurosurgery which may serve the purpose .So we intend to follow the neurosurgical safety checklist to elude anticipated complications. Objectives 1. To identify the adherence to various elements of the Modied WHO SSC for neurosurgery. 2. To analyse how a mandatory speciality-specic checklist practice can help in early identication of those interventions that are specic to neurosurgery, which can otherwise be overlooked. METHODOLOGY: Ÿ Study Design: Observational study Ÿ Duration of study: From May 2021 to August 2021. Ÿ Sampling Method: Convenience sampling Ÿ Sampling Procedure: Systematic Random Sampling. RESULT: This study was carried out in 77 patients undergoing various neurosurgery procedures and was found that none of the patients had diagnosis, procedure written on the name tag in pre-op period and ICP monitoring tools were not available. It was found that the anaesthesiologist as a safety list coordinator can implement the checklist ensuring minimal complications related to the surgery and also active involvement of all the members. CONCLUSION: The implementation of surgical safety checklist for Neurosurgery, by a designated checklist co-ordinator, can rectify anaesthetic and surgical facets promptly, without increasing the time required for the operation and also reduces the risk for post-op recovery.

Tanjung Luar is coastal water used as a waste disposal area for Fish Landing Based (FLB) activities. However, the condition of the waters with phytoplankton as a bioindicator has never been reporting. This research aims to know Bacillariophyceae in terms of abundance, diversity, and measurement of environmental pollution variables. Methods Sampling at the study location was determined by a systematic random sampling method. Data analysis Bacillariophyceae were determined using formula abundance, diversity index, and dominance index. The index of similarity of species between sample points was determined based on the Bray-Curtis Cluster Analysis. Furthermore, the results showed an abundance of Bacillaryophyceae of 322,000 individuals / L classified as low, the diversity index of Bacillariophyceae of 2.162 classified as moderate, and a dominance index of 0.138 (without dominating species). The results showed that the highest species similarity index was between sample points II and III (57.9%), and the lowest species similarity index between sample points I and II was 23.7%. Water pollution on the waters of PPI Tanjung Luar is classified as moderate pollution level and oligotrophic fertility.

Background: Sampling methods are one of the main components of each research. Familiarity with a variety of sampling methods is essential for researchers. Objective: The main purpose of this study was to teach different probabilistic and non-probabilistic sampling methods to improve the knowledge of researchers in conducting more accurate research. Methods: In this tutorial article, useful information about each sampling method, as well as how to properly use each method and its strengths and weaknesses are provided. Results: Five cases of probabilistic sampling methods and four cases of non-probabilistic sampling methods that are common are mentioned. Probabilistic sampling included simple random sampling, stratified random sampling, cluster sampling, systematic random sampling, and multi-stage random sampling. In addition to introducing each method, its strengths and weaknesses are also mentioned. Conclusion: Probabilistic sampling methods despite limiting assumptions provide more reliable results. Therefore, if it is possible, researchers should use probabilistic sampling methods to increase the accuracy of the study.

This study investigated workplace safety climate and turnover intention among Nigerian prison service officers. It adopted the descriptive survey research design. Three prisons were selected using convenience sampling procedure and 187 respondents were selected with the use of purposive sampling method. The formulated hypotheses were tested using the Pearson Product Moment Correlation and multiple regression. The results showed a strong, positive and statistically significant relationship between workplace safety climate and turnover intention among Nigerian prison service officers (r=.63, p<.05). Also, a statistically significant influence of workplace safety climate dimensions (organizational level and group level safety climate) on turnover intention among Nigerian prison service officers was found (F(2, 184)= 15.78, p<.05), with R2 at 0.15. This posits that 15% of the variance in turnover intention is as a result of workplace safety climate dimensions (organization and group level safety climate). From these findings, it was recommended among others that, supervisors (group level safety climate) should adopt necessary practices (enlightenments and orientations on how to act safely at work) to reduce turnover intention of officers at the selected prisons.
