| direct method for making inlays | In dentistry, an inlay technique in which the wax pattern is made directly in the prepared cavity in the tooth. Synonym: direct technique. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| inlays | Restorations of metal, porcelain, or plastic made to fit a cavity preparation, then cemented into the tooth. Onlays are restorations which fit into cavity preparations and overlay the occlusal surface of a tooth or teeth. Onlays are retained by frictional or mechanical factors. (12 Dec 1998) |
| policy making | The decision process by which individuals, groups or institutions establish policies pertaining to plans, programs or procedures. (12 Dec 1998) |
| decision making | The process of making a selective intellectual judgment when presented with several complex alternatives consisting of several variables, and usually defining a course of action or an idea. (12 Dec 1998) |
| decision making, computer-assisted | Use of an interactive computer system designed to assist the physician or other health professional in choosing between certain relationships or variables for the purpose of making a diagnostic or therapeutic decision. (12 Dec 1998) |
| decision making, organizational | The process by which decisions are made in an institution or other organization. (12 Dec 1998) |
| trail making test | The subject's ability to connect 25 numbered and lettered circles in sequence in a specific length of time. A score of 12 or below is suggestive of organic brain damage. (12 Dec 1998) |
| calorimetry, indirect | Calculation of the energy expenditure in the form of heat production of the whole body or individual organs based on respiratory gas exchange. (12 Dec 1998) |
| indirect | 1. Not immediate or straight. 2. Acting through an intermediary agent. Origin: L. Indirectus (18 Nov 1997) |
| indirect agglutination | Agglutination of particles that have been coated with soluble antigen, by antiserum specific for the adsorbed antigen. Synonym: indirect agglutination. (05 Mar 2000) |
| indirect assay | For antibody; an application of the ELISA method in which serum being tested for antibody is added to wells coated with known antigen; presence of antibody bound to the antigen coat can be determined by addition of immunoglobulin-specific antibody to which is linked the enzyme of the indicator system, followed by addition of substrate to the washed aggregate. (05 Mar 2000) |
| indirect bilirubin | <biochemistry> Free bilirubin that has not been attached to a glucuronide molecule. This results from the rapid breakdown of red blood cells. The haemoglobin molecule is normally converted to bilirubin. Greater than normal values of indirect bilirubin can be seen in erythroblastosis foetalis, haemolytic anaemia, sickle cell anaemia, transfusion reactions, pernicious anaemia and resolution of large haematomas. (27 Sep 1997) |
| indirect Coombs' test | A test routinely performed in cross-matching blood or in the investigation of transfusion reaction: test for patient's serum is incubated with a suspension of donor erythrocytes; if specific antibodies are present, they become attached to the antigen in donor's cells; after a washing with saline, Coombs' antihuman globulin is added; agglutination at this point indicates that antibodies present in the original test serum had indeed become attached to donor erythrocytes. (05 Mar 2000) |
| indirect diuretic | A diuretic that acts by increasing cardiac function or by increasing the state of hydration. (05 Mar 2000) |
| indirect fluorescent antibody | The detection of antibodies to specific antigenic material in the substrate using fluorescent microscopy. Using fluorescent conjugated antibodies which are specific for a particular isotype of antibody, it is possible to distinguish IgG, IgA and IgM isotypes of specific antibodies using indirect fluorescent antibody. This sensitive technique is highly specific in well-trained hands and recent developments in the establishment of internationally recognised standard materials have led to accurate quantitation of antibody concentrations through endpoint titration (the highest serial dilution of specimen at which specific fluorescence remains) and through measuring visual intensity of fluorescence compared to known reference standard material.
