  We consider a class of scalar delay differential equations with impulses and
satisfying an Yorke-type condition, for which some criteria for the global
stability of the zero solution are established. Here, the usual requirements
about the impulses are relaxed.
  The results can be applied to study the stability of other solutions, such as
periodic solutions. As an illustration, a very general periodic Lasota-Wazewska
model with impulses and multiple time-dependent delays is addressed, and the
global attractivity of its positive periodic solution analysed.
  Our results are discussed within the context of recent literature.
