UVU is very different from most universities as we do not teach from a textbook. Most instructors have a PhD in engineering and 20-40 years of experience. Course content is developed from scratch and is based on the instructorâs experience. The textbook serves as a reference and some reading assignments are made.
Deionization (DI Water or Demineralization) simply means the removal of ions. Ions are electrically charged atoms or molecules found in water that have either a net negative or positive charge.
Catheterisation means to introduce a catheter into a body cavity to inject or remove fluid. Urinary catheterisation reduces the risk of infection and kidney damage by ensuring the bladder is emptied adequately continuously or at regular intervals. Catheterisation can be used on a temporary basis to help people retrain their bladder, and it may also be needed after certain kinds of surgery.
