Chronic gallbladder disease refers to several conditions that can harm gallbladder function. The gallbladder, a sac located under the liver, stores and regulates the release of bile into the upper small intestine to aid in the digestion of fat. When a chronic condition prevents the gallbladder from doing its job effectively, it's known as chronic gallbladder disease. Several different conditions fall under the umbrella of chronic gallbladder disease, though most cases involve chronic cholecystitis. This condition is an inflammation of the gallbladder that usually results from the formation of gallstones. It can cause the gallbladder to shrink and lose function.

The Manitoba Provincial Dialysis Program was mandated in 1998 by Manitoba Health under the umbrella of the Winnipeg Regional Health Authority(WRHA) to provide care for all patients receiving dialysis therapies in Manitoba.

The development of Renal Health Outreach(RHO). The RHO is responsible for renal health promotion, disease prevention and management through education and non dialysis clinical care.

Due to the diverse nature of what constitutes "low regulatory concern", there has always been difficulty in defining a single category or set of guidelines that readily capture the scope of possible reforms. The approach to date has been to identify case-by-case scenarios, which are then used to define or constitute a set of categories under the umbrella of "low regulatory concern" such as polymers of low concern(PLC) or early introduction permits for chemicals not classified as hazardous.... a single definition of LRCC [low regulatory concern chemicals] is not possible except in the most generic sense : Chemicals could qualify for reduced regulatory input on the basis of a definition of low risk or where regulatory input from elsewhere is sufficient to meet Australian requirements.
