Nosocomial or hospital-acquired infections are defined as those that were neither present nor incubating at the time the patient came for care. Nosocomial infections are a significant problem throughout the world and they remain to be one of the major problems of Philippine hospitals. The Surveillance of Hospital-Acquired Infection in the Philippines (SHIP) was established in 1999 with an aim to create a national database of nosocomial infections and improve surveillance methods of hospitals in the Philippines. Registered hospitals were asked to perform prospective nosocomial infection surveillance on all patients within their own confines using uniform definitions and codes and report these data to scheduled SHIP meetings. For each nosocomial infection detected, a limited amount of information on the patient, the infection, the associated risk factors, and the outcomes of infection should be recorded on a data sheet form. Therefore, there is a need for an online surveillance system that will systematically collect, analyze and record patient infection data. The Surveillance System of Hospital-Acquired Infection in the Philippines (SSHIP) is a web-based computer program that will aid infection control doctors and nurses on the data collection and retrieval of important nosocomial infection information. SSHIP allows {I) infection control nurses to update the Infection Worksheet, Laboratory Data Form and the ICU Monthly Report Form, (2) infection control doctors and nurses to generate rates and graphs of the ICU Monthly Report Form, (3) online users to submit online SHIP Application Forms, and (4) sending via email of notification of application to Philippine hospitals who submitted their online SHIP Application Forms.

A balanced diet is necessary to ensure that a person has enough energy to perform his tasks and to prevent and alleviate diseases. The Philippine General Hospital Outpatient Dietary Department is responsible for advising their patient on how to eat properly, especially those who have special conditions requiring a different diet. The Outpatient Diet Registry System (ODRS) aims to aid dietitians in providing service. ODRS has three users the Patient, the Dietitian and the System Administrator. The Patient can view a diet plan and the menu assigned to him. He may also update his menu. The Dietitian can update patient records by performing Food Recall, submitting the results of laboratory examinations, and by assigning a diet plan and a menu. He may also update diet plans, food items, representative foods and menus. The Dietitian can also generate important reports such as the Individual Summary Result and the Daily Patient Census. The System Administrator can update accounts for Patients and Dietitians. He may also choose activate or deactivate a Dietitian account.

(Guava) Leaf and Fruit on the Periodontopathogen Porphyromonas gingivalis and the Partial Characterization of its Active Component Henson, Karl Evans R. The various components of Psidium guajava Linn. (Guava) leaves and fruit were extracted using a Soxhlet extractor (organic) and by boiling (aqueous). The crude extracts were subjected to further fractionation using organic solvents. The fractions obtained were tested on Porphyromonas gingivalis, one of the major pathogens causing periodontitis. The bioactive fraction, the aqueous water layer of the leaf, was characterized by phytochemical screening. Results showed that guava leaves exhibit antimicrobial effect on P. gingivalis, as shown by the 14-mm zone of inhibition of the crude aqueous extract of the leaf and the 12.33-mm zone of inhibition of the aqueous water layer of the leaf. All other fractions, including all fruit fractions, did not exhibit microbicidal properties. Phytochemical screening revealed that the bioactive fraction contains tannins, plant acids, reducing substances, and flavonoids.

Automata and Language Theory is a core course in Computer Science. The course presents theoretical models of computations, and one of them is the Turing machine. Construction of Turing machines is often tedious, and conceptualization of their behavior is difficult. A web-accessible simulator software is developed to provide a means of analyzing the behavior of a machine graphically. This simulator provides graphical simulations of the tape and the transition diagram. The software can simulate deterministic Turing machines (without storage) and a special type of Turing machine that has storage in the finite control.
