Procedural
(adjective)
Concerned with the way in which something is done, or the process which enables it.
Examples of Procedural in the following topics:
-
Introduction to Practical Procedures
- To recursively elaborate previously learned procedural and cultural mathematical competencies, each emphases section will have the 5th emphasis on the Practical Procedures of this level of mathematics.
- Some tasks are designed to remind you of past learned procedures, while others are designed to help you think about learning something like Number for the first time.
-
Practicing Mathematics as a Teacher: Practical Procedures
- But, there is a place for ensuring that we study together the practical procedures of the concepts that we are studying.
- This work can do much more though, it will give us a chance to talk about and investigate methods for teaching these practical procedures to your students in a more productive way then potentially you were taught them.
- Some tasks are designed to remind you of past learned procedures, while others are designed to help you think about learning something like Number for the first time.
- Helping students become aware of the practical procedures associated with the concept under examination in the concept study environment.
-
Lab safety
- This is to satisfy safety procedures for investigation and experimentation section based on MSDE & NGSS.
-
Lab 2: Sampling Experiment
- The student will explain each of the details of each procedure used.
- In each case, describe your procedure briefly, including how you might have used the random number generator, and then list the restaurants in the sample you obtained
-
Tonsillectomy
- A tonsillectomy is a surgical procedure in which the tonsils are removed from either side of the throat.
- A tonsillectomy is a surgical procedure in which the tonsils are removed from either side of the throat.
- For children, the adenoids are removed at the same time, a procedure called adenoidectomy.
- Tonsillectomy remains one of the most common surgical procedures in children in the United States.
- The generally accepted procedure for tonsillectomy involves separating and removing the tonsils from the subcapsular plane – a fascia of tissue that surrounds the tonsils.
-
Torn Cartilage and Arthroscopy
- Arthroscopy is a minimally-invasive surgical procedure used in treating damage to the interior of a joint using a small incision and scope.
- Arthroscopy (also called arthroscopic surgery) is a minimally-invasive surgical procedure in which an examination, and sometimes treatment of damage to the interior of a joint, is performed using an arthroscope, a type of endoscope that is inserted into the joint through a small incision.
- Arthroscopic procedures can be performed either to evaluate or to treat many orthopedic conditions including torn floating cartilage, torn surface cartilage, ACL reconstruction, and trimming of damaged cartilage.
- In knee arthroscopy, for example, only two small incisions are made: one for the arthroscope, permitting observation of the procedure and one for the surgical instruments to be used in the knee cavity.
- The most common joints of the body that are successfully examined and or treated via this procedure include the knee, shoulder, elbow, wrist, ankle, foot, and hip.
-
Preparation of Ethers
- One important procedure, known as the Williamson Ether Synthesis, proceeds by an SN2 reaction of an alkoxide nucleophile with an alkyl halide.
- Reactions #1 and #2 below are two examples of this procedure.
- Reactions #3 and #4 are examples of this two-step procedure.
- As shown in the following two equations, the success of this procedure depends on the temperature.
-
Preparation of Carboxylic Acids
- Two other useful procedures for preparing carboxylic acids involve hydrolysis of nitriles and carboxylation of organometallic intermediates.
- Both methods require two steps, but are complementary in that the nitrile intermediate in the first procedure is generated by a SN2 reaction, in which cyanide anion is a nucleophilic precursor of the carboxyl group.
- In the second procedure the electrophilic halide is first transformed into a strongly nucleophilic metal derivative, and this adds to carbon dioxide (an electrophile).
- An existing carboxylic acid may be elongated by one methylene group, using a homologation procedure called the Arndt-Eistert reaction.
-
Arthroplasty
- Arthroplasty is an operative procedure in which the arthritic or dysfunctional joint surface is replaced or repaired.
- Arthroplasty (literally "surgical repair of joint") is an operative procedure of orthopedic surgery performed, in which the arthritic or dysfunctional joint surface is replaced with something better or by remodeling or realigning the joint by osteotomy or some other procedure .
- The purpose of this procedure is to relieve pain, to restore range of motion, and to improve walking ability; thus leading to the improvement of muscle strength.
-
Breast Augmentation and Reduction
- Breast augmentation denotes the breast implant and fat-graft mammoplasty procedures for correcting the defects, and for enhancing the size, form, and feel of a woman's breasts.
- Each augmentation approach corrects post–mastectomy defects in a breast reconstruction procedure; congenital defects and congenital abnormalities of the chest wall; and aesthetically enhances the natural size, look, and feel of the bust.
- In breast reconstruction practice, the tissue expander is a temporary breast-implant device used to prepare the implant-pocket (recipient site), as part of a staged reconstruction mammoplasty procedure.
- Reduction mammoplasty (also breast reduction and reduction mammoplasty) is the plastic surgery procedure for correcting over-sized breasts.
- Moreover, the correction of gynecomastia (woman's breast) is the analogous, enlarged male-breast reduction surgery procedure, wherein there is no consideration of lactation capability.
