Abstract

Robotic- assisted surgery has revolutionized the surgical practice since its inception and allows surgeons to use minimally invasive techniques in cardiac, urology, and general surgeries. Robotic surgery is quickly becoming an alternative to standard laparoscopic approaches to surgery and especially in the area of urology. Even though the use of robotic- assisted surgery is more advantageous than conventional methods, its use is hinged on the surgical teams training and experiences with it. The study examines the frequency of use of the technique among various surgical teams and their response to its effectiveness. The research design of the study begins ...

Introduction

Charles Manson was born in Cincinnati, Ohio, on November 12, 1934 to Kathleen Maddox, a sixteen-year-old prostitute (Atchison & Kathleen, 2011). This paper aims at analyzing America’s “most dangerous man.” In doing so, the paper will examine his history, actions, psychology, and personality. There are also conclusions regarding preventative treatments and therapies made based on Manson’s story and knowledge of other psychological disorders. Charles Manson spent his childhood under the care of different people, including his uncle, aunt, caretaker, or grandmother away from his un-wanting mother. His mother, Kathleen Maddox was drunken trouble-maker and irresponsible. She once sold ...

Women are objectified in patriarchy. They have to use their sexuality in order to live a decent life and get what they want, because their position in the world doesn't allow them to achieve that kind of success alone. At least that was the case in 1953 when "Niagara" and "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes" were filmed. In the fifties, emancipation of women was not at its peak. Women are victims in a male dominated world and their only chance is to marry preferably a rich man, who will support them. Lorelei and Dorothy sing: "Find a gentleman who is shy or bold; Or short ...

The Chinese have long been accused of manipulating their currency to further serve their economic gains. The rest of the world, perhaps understandably, reacts badly to currency manipulation, as it is seen as the equivalent of “cheating” in the game of international economics. China is often reviled by the rest of the world because, unlike many other countries that pay lip service to traditional economic and political conventions, China has a tendency to act without thought to conventions. Even American presidential candidate Mitt Romney accused China of “cheating” at international economics and declared that if he became president, he would ...

Remote Operated Vehicle (ROV) refers to robot submarine tethered on a ship by dissimilar cables, which carry electrical signals back and forth amongst the operator and the vehicle. The ROVs are extremely maneuverable and unoccupied mostly equipped with a video camera together with lights. However, it is essential to add extra equipment in order to expand the capabilities of the vehicle. These equipments may entail a still camera, manipulator, water sampler, cutting arm as well as the instruments used in measuring water clarity, temperature, light and penetration. Initially, the developments of ROVs were for industrial purposes including the internal and external inspection ...

Patients with Post-Stroke Hemiparetic Upper Limb

Abstract The US and Europe are both experiencing the coming of age of an elderly population which is prone to strokes and will need health care focused on post-stroke therapies. The most promising therapies are robot-assisted motion exercises coupled with Non-invasive Brain Simulations (NBS) such as Transcranial Magnetic Simulation (TMS). At this time the most attractive combination for both effective and affordable therapy is the use of simply designed, easily manipulated robot systems coupled with TMS. Since 2003 the area of neurorehabilitation has been growing with many effective and exciting designs in robotics. It hasn’t been very ...
