Stroke is one of the leading causes disability among elderly population and a significant public health problem worldwide. The main impact stroke functional disabilities due to motor impairment after stroke. Advances in modern medicine technology have significantly improved diagnosis treatment; however, most post-stroke care based on effectiveness rehabilitation. rehabilitation depends two components: (i) training (or therapy) restore patient pre-stroke mobility (ii) assessing functionality...
Abstract Background Appendicectomy for acute appendicitis in children may be performed specialist centres by paediatric surgeons or general surgery units. Service provision and outcome of appendicectomy differ between such Methods This multicentre observational study included all (aged less than 16 years) who had an at either a unit unit. The primary was normal rate (NAR). Secondary outcomes 30-day adverse events, use ultrasound imaging laparoscopy, consultant involvement procedures. Results...
Detection of lung abnormalities by characterizing sounds has been a primary step for clinical examination pulmonologist. This work focuses on utilization cepstral features sound analysis and classification. The proposed method incorporates statistical properties along with artificial neural network (ANN) based Experimental results indicate that the outperform wavelet-based conventional mel-frequency features. Further analyses have performed to experimentally optimize frame size feature...
Lung sounds contain vital information about pulmonary pathology. In this paper, we use short-term spectral characteristics of lung to recognize associated diseases. Motivated by the success auditory perception based techniques in speech signal classification, represent time-frequency using mel-scale warped coefficients, called here as mel-frequency coefficients (MFSCs). Next, employ local binary pattern analysis (LBP) capture texture MFSCs, and feature vectors are subsequently derived...
Stroke rehabilitation interventions require multiple training sessions and repeated assessments to evaluate the improvements from training. Biofeedback-based treadmill often involves 10 or more determine its effectiveness. The assessment process incurs time, labor, cost whether produces positive outcomes. Predicting effectiveness of gait based on baseline minimum foot clearance (MFC) data would be highly beneficial, potentially saving resources, costs, patient time. This work proposes novel...
Vascular surgery has recently been recognised as a full surgical specialty in the UK. Major vascular interventions are centralised into hub units where sufficient volume of cases exists to achieve good outcomes and support training. 1 If no consolidation onto single site occurred, clinical networks have formed provide emergency cover for their catchment area. In local district hospitals, visiting surgeons can run clinics, perform day-case minor elective offer opinion. 2013 first round...
