Insomnia

Introduction Insomnia is the condition in which sleep disorder takes place and reduces the tendency to fall sleep. It also effects the duration that an individual is required to stay asleep in order to stay healthy. This condition occurs due to the daytime sleepiness, anxiety and depressed mood. However, scholars have also argued that the frequency of inadequate lifestyle can be a cause of the increasing rate of insomnia. It is observed that the occurrence of insomnia can range from short-term, long-term and periodic basis, and can result in life threatening situations if it is left untreated (Bonnet & Arand, ...

Selection from an 8 year-period of pulmonary valve replacement and cross sectional follow up of a commercially available biological valve, assessed with established and a new method

What This Thesis Is About

Pulmonary valve replacement is a procedure necessary in many congenital heart defects and in-valve degeneration cases. Surgical results are excellent, but the longevity of artificial valves is very limited. Our goal was to give a retrospective overview of methods and results from the year 2000 until 2008 at Rikshospital, as well as the prospective five year follow-up of a biological valve made from bovine pericardium. Follow up included clinical examination with ECG, echocardiography, spirometry, treadmill testing, echocardiography ...

Introduction

Digital media impacts on the way people communicate information, ideas, and arguments locally as well as internationally. Companies are faced with the digital imperative: Employ new digital technologies effectively or risk competitive obsolescence. Every organization wants to leverage new technologies for business transformation. Starbucks embraced digital media technology after dismal performances caused a 50% cut in its stock price (Fitzgerald, Kruschwitz, Bonnet & Welch, 2013).

Starbucks has not always been a leader in digital media. The company lagged behind relative to similar businesses. Some of the indicators of this include the fact that Point of sale (POS) systems were unintuitive and ...

The importance of effective management of pain in the post-operative patient cannot be overemphasized. Its inadequate management can have profound adverse effects on patients such as sleep disturbances, mobilization difficulties, aggression, high levels of anxiety, and increased distress and suffering (Carr et al., 2005). Post-operative pain can also have unwanted physiological effects on patients and cause complications such as nausea, vomiting, paralytic ileus, and increases in blood pressure (Mackintosh, 2007). This paper will critic the pharmacologic and non-pharmacologic interventions that were used in the management of post-operative pain (rated at 6/10 on the numeric scale) in a patient who is ...

Control Valves

A valve is a control device that is utilized in adjusting the flow rate of a fluid in a pipe (Doddannavar, Barnard, and Ganesh, 2005). This implies that the flow rate will change as the valve opens and closes either partially or fully, thus providing some obstruction to some extent (Rennels and Hudson, 2012). The valve comprises a flow passage in which the flow area can be varied. Operation of valves in most scenarios is manual. In cases where the valves are operated automatically, electromechanical actuators are used. The electromechanical actuators can include electric motors or pneumatic actuators that are motorized by air ...

Introduction.

A combustion engine can be defined as any engine that operates through fuel burning. The difference between a combustion engine and steam engine is that the latter uses steam for operation while the former uses gasoline. Combustion engines also use fueled gases such as hydrogen, propane, methane etc which are components of diesel. Combustion engines run on one type of fuel, and may require a series of adaptation to adjust to fuel/air ratio to use other forms of energy (Agrawal, 2006). The combustion process starts in the gasoline cylinder where a mixture of air and gasoline is sprayed. The mixture is ...

This is a structural system that does not hold the formal rules and regulations in an organization. It usually has no standardized procedures in handling the daily problems. In this system, hierarchies are not applicable and the system is low on formalization. It is best suitable for temporary goals. The system is highly flexible and very responsive in handling urgent situations, both quickly and efficiently, especially in dynamic environments (Abrahamson, 1993; Buchanan, 1985; Robbins, 1994; Bilton and Bonnet, 1997). Here, there is high horizontal specialization of jobs and the employees are professionals. A large part of the organization is ...
