Abstract Background: The study of psychological well-being and related resilient outcomes is increasing focus in cardiovascular research. Despite the critical importance promoting optimal cardiac health, there have been very few interventions directed towards children with heart disease. This paper describes development theoretical framework WE BEAT Wellbeing Education Program, a group-based psychoeducation coping skills training intervention designed to improve resilience adolescents...
Background The routine use of angiotensin‐converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEI) during palliation hypoplastic left heart syndrome is controversial. We sought to describe ACEI prescription in the interstage between stage 1 (stage I Norwood procedure) discharge and 2 II superior cavopulmonary anastomosis admission using NPC‐QIC (National Pediatric Cardiology Quality Improvement Collaborative) registry. Methods Results Analysis all patients (n=2180) enrolled from 2008 2016 included preoperative...
Abstract Objective(s): To examine feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary effectiveness of a novel group-based telemedicine psychoeducation programme aimed at supporting psychological well-being among adolescents with Fontan-palliated CHD. Study design: A 5-week (WE BEAT) was developed for ( N = 20; 13–18 years) CHD improving resiliency well-being. Outcome measures included surveys resilience (Connor–Davidson Resilience Scale), benefit finding (Benefit/Burden Scale Children), depression,...
A model which offers a closed-form equation for determining device size, based on speed and load, has been developed. The need circuit simulation is eliminated in most cases. This used system automatically producing performance-tuned cell layouts.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
A time-multiplexed switched-capacitor computational block with some neural network characteristics is under development. The goal of this work not to model biological neuron qualities exactly but rather emulate their primary the extent necessary solve types problems suited digital processing. circuit operation and limitations on its performance are described. intended serve as a coprocessor microprocessor. Circuit functionality has been demonstrated breadboarded circuit, currently being...

ABSTRACT Purpose Physical activity and a healthy lifestyle play an essential role in optimizing long-term health patients with Fontan physiology. Wrist-worn trackers may be useful medically directed exercise programs for The objective of this study was to measure the validity Garmin Fitbit tracker heart rate detection circulation when compared electrocardiogram during cardiopulmonary testing (CPET). Methods Forty-seven undergoing CPET clinical indications were included wore CPET. Heart via...
Abstract Background: Emerging evidence suggests that routine physical activity may improve exercise capacity, long-term outcomes, and quality of life in individuals with Fontan circulation. Despite this, it is unclear how active these are what guidance they receive from medical providers regarding activity. The aim this study was to survey patients on personal behaviours their cardiologist-directed recommendations set a baseline for future targeted efforts this. Methods: An electronic...
Objective: Interdisciplinary communication failures frequently contribute to medical mistakes and adverse events. At our institution, between team members previously occurred through unidirectional pager systems. In study, we utilized quality improvement (QI) methodology 1) implement a bidirectional secure text messaging system for residents nurses on general pediatrics ward, 2) evaluate its impact providers. Specifically, objective was reduce potential …
Es besteht bis heute keine klare Systematik respiratorischer Therapie, obwohl die Maßnahmen „konservativer” Therapie seit dem vorigen Jahrhundert bekannt sind. Von der konservativen respiratorischen sollte Beatmung, Atemarbeit ganz oder teilweise übernimmt, abgetrennt werden. Der Schwerpunkt liegt aber deutlich auf „konservativen” Sektor. Eine Analyse durchgeführter zwei verschiedenen Intensivstationen belegt dieses.
