In linac-based stereotactic radiosurgery, assuring the quality of the planning and delivery of external photon beam requires accurate evaluation of beam parameters, usually including output factors, tissue-phantom ratio and off-axis ratios, and measurement of actual dose distributions from simulated treatment. We're going to test the use of calibrated radio chromic film (Gafchromic film; type MD-55, Nuclear associate) using a Lumiscan 75 digitizer to measure absolute dose and relative dose distributions for linac-based radiosurgery unit Relative dose distribution of a human-style spherical acryl phantom were measured using radiochromic film and calculated by treatment planning system. The absolute dose at the sphere center was measured by radiochromic film and micro chamber (Exradin A-14, 0.009cc). What we want to demonstrate in this work, the 'well selected' radiochromic films when external photon beam are used in linac-based stereotactic radiosurgery are very accurate detector for dosimetry.

The A.M.I(acute myocardiac Infarction) treated in Rehabilitation programs May be divided Into three general types, 1. mechanlcal derangement. 2. Increased resistance to blood flow. 3. decreased Energy production. in each case the heart Will be Limited in its ability to respond. to the demands of metabolic activites. cardiac rehabilitation programs following myocardiac infarction are of two general types:acute and delayed. There are fundamental differences in the philosophies, pathophilogical concepts, and psycosocial values in the two approach. both programs asplre to protect the patient through the period of Maximal risk and then safely restore him to a near normal home life and appropriate vocatlonal activity. Both programs assume that physical activity and emotional stress. increase the work of the heart and with it increase the likefood of venticular fibillation

It is naturally to be expected that occupational stress on seafarers has specific characters compared to workers engaged in other industries. Because the physical rigors of working and living at sea has been endured as a part of job. The purpose of this paper is to figure out physical changes on seafarers resulted from ordinary shipboard life on the ocean-going cargo vessel. To do this, we performed biochemical inspections testing blood and urine for 28 crews, and measured heart rate of officers engaging in some bridge duties. The tests showed that creatinine, uric acid, total cholesterol, HDL-C, LDL-C of some crews fell down to level which could make a bad impact on human body. And the heart rate of deck officers had vibrated with rather wide amplitude whenever they have got some work-related psychological pressure.

The analysis of electrocardiogram (ECG) signals facilitates the detection of various abnormal conditions of the human heart. The QRS complex is the most critical part of the ECG waveform. Further, different diseases can be identified based on the QRS complex. In this paper, a new algorithm based on the well-known Pan-Tompkins algorithm has been proposed. In the proposed scheme, the QRS complex is initially extracted by removing the background noise. Subsequently, the R-R interval and heart rate are calculated to detect whether the ECG is normal or has some abnormalities such as tachycardia and bradycardia. The accuracy of the proposed algorithm is found to be almost the same as the Pan-Tompkins algorithm and increases the R peak detection processing speed. For this work, samples are used from the MIT-BIH Arrhythmia Database, and the simulation is carried out using MATLAB 2016a.

This essay reinterprets Joseph Conrad's The Heart of Darkness as satirical writing. In an experience-based fictional world, Conrad places imperial precursors who present themselves with a derogatory demeanor that stems from corrupt rapacity at its forefront. This rapacity is enabled by what European colonists believe to be a noble cause, regarded as a vehicle with which to enlighten African continent in his work. This essay reads this noble cause that allows such exorbitant and corrupt rapacity as a dominant element in the construction of Conrad's characters, particularly Kurtz, as objects of satire. Kurtz ends up beginning his calamitous descent into barbarism, mockingly quite opposite to what the colonial disciples misconceive themselves to be. In exhuming the satirical elements from the novel, this paper proves the significance of reading The Heart of Darkness as satire as an alternative reading to the racist book Chinua Achebe has accused it of.

본 연구는 국내의 간호 인력 부족으로 인하여 발생되는 간호 업무 부하를 감소시키기 위해 PPG 신호를 이용한 휴대형 심박수 측정 장치의 설계 방법과 환자의 움직임인 동잡음에서도 신뢰성이 높은 심박수 측정 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 제안된 심박수 측정방법은 생체 신호의 하모닉 특성을 기반한 적응필터로 동잡음을 제거하고 심박수를 측정하는 방법이다. 제안된 기법으로 구현된 심박수 측정기의 성능을 평가하기 위해 손가락 떨림, 손목 움직임 등의 동잡음을 발생시켜 실험하고, 일반적인 방법인 이동평균 필터의 성능과 비교 평가 하였다. 이 실험 결과에서 제안된 기법의 성능이 이동평균 필터의 성능보다 우수한 성능을 보였다. 따라서 본 연구에서 제안한 휴대형 심박수 측정기를 간호업무에 도입한다면, 간호 업무 개선과 보다 선뢰성이 높은 심박수 측정이 가능할 것으로 사료된다.

Objectives: To describe the time perspective of return to work and the factors that facilitate and hinder return to work in a group of survivors of acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Methods: Retrospective semi-structured telephone survey 2 to 3 years after hospitalization with 84 employed Dutch ACS-patients from one academic medical hospital. Results: Fifty-eight percent of patients returned to work within 3 months, whereas at least 88% returned to work once within 2 years. Two years after hospitalization, 12% of ACS patients had not returned to work at all, and 24% were working, but not at pre-ACS levels. For all ACS-patients, the most mentioned categories of facilitating factors to return to work were having no complaints and not having signs or symptoms of heart disease. Physical incapacity, co-morbidity, and mental incapacity were the top 3 categories of hindering factors against returning to work. Conclusion: Within 2 years, 36% of the patients had not returned to work at their pre-ACS levels. Disease factors, functional capacity, environmental factors, and personal factors were listed as affecting subjects' work ability level.

Background: Firefighters may experience high environmental temperatures or carry out intensive physical tasks, or both, which leads to increased core body temperature and risk of fatalities. Hence there is a need to remotely and non-invasively monitor core body temperature. Methods: Estimated (heart rate algorithm) and actual core body temperature (ingested telemetric pill) measures were collected simultaneously for comparison during training exercises on 44 firefighter volunteers. Results: Prediction of core body temperature varied, with no specific identifiable pattern between the algorithm values and directly measured body core temperatures. Group agreement of Lin's Concordance of 0.74 (95% Upper 0.75, lower CI 0.73), was deemed poor. Conclusion: From individual agreement data Lin's Concordance was variable (Min 0.11, CI 0.13-0.01; Max 0.83, CI 0.86-0.80), indicating that the heart rate algorithm approach was not suitable for core body temperature monitoring in this population group, especially at the higher more critical core body temperatures seen.

연구목적 자살행동의 계절성은 잘 알려져 있는 현상이지만, 자해행동의 계절성은 알려진 바가 적다. 본 연구는 자해행동 중 하나인 손목자해행동이 계절성을 나타내는지를 확인하고, 기후인자와의 관련성을 파악하고자 했다. 방 법 자해행동의 계절성을 확인하기 위하여 2014. 12~2019. 5까지 일 병원 응급실에 손목자해행동으로 내원한 226명의 대상자의 월별 평균 내원 숫자가 월별로 차이를 나타내는지를 보았다. 손목자해행동과 기후인자와의 관련성을 확인하기 위하여 월 단위 시간변수와 기상청 데이터를 통해 획득한 월별 기후변수(기온, 일조량, 1개월 전 대기압)를 설명변수로 하고, 월 별로 손목자해행동으로 응급실에 내원한 횟수를 결과변수로 하여 일반화 가법모형을 이용한 다중 포아송 회귀분석을 실시하였다. 결 과 손목자해행동으로 응급실에 내원한 대상자의 월 평균 숫자는 남자에서 유의한 월별 차이가 있었고, 9월에 가장 많았다(남자 : p=0.048, 여자 : p=0.21, 전체 : p=0.28). 다중 회귀분석 결과 손목자해로 응급실에 내원한 월 평균 환자의 숫자는 남자에서는 1달전 대기압과 기온의 교호작용과 관련이 있었고(p=0.010), 여자에서는 일조량과 양의 상관관계[p=0.044, β=4.70×10-3, 95% CI=(1.19×10-4, 9.27×10-3)]를 보였다. 결 론 손목자해행동은 남성에서 두드러진 계절성을 보이며, 이는 기후변수의 변화와 관련성이 있다.

본 연구의 목적은 21%농도의 산소와 비교하여 30%의 고농도 산소 흡입이 사이클 등속 운동 중에 심박동률(heart rate)과 혈중 산소 포화도($SPO_2$)에 미치는 영향을 분석하는 것이다. 21%와 30% 농도의 산소를 각각 8liter/min의 양으로 일정하게 공급할 수 있는 산소 공급 장치를 이용하였다. 신체 건강한 10명의 남자 대학생($25.2{\pm}2.2$세)이 21%와 30%의 두 종류의 산소 농도를 대상으로 각각 두 번의 실험에 참여하였다. 실험은 안정(2분), $20{\pm}1km/h$의 사이클 등속 운동(10분), 회복(6분)의 세 구간(총 18분)으로 구성되어 있고, 21%또는 30%의 산소는 등속 운동과 회복 구간에만 공급되었다. 21%에 비해 30%산소를 흡입했을 때 사이클 등속 운동과 회복 기간 중에 심박동률은 감소하였고, 혈중 산소 포화도는 .차이가 없었다. 21%와 30% 두 그룹 사이에 동일한 운동부하가 주어졌기 때문에 혈중 산소 포화도는 차이가 없는 것으로 판단되고, 30%의 고농도 산소 흡입으로 동일운동 부하에 필요한 산소 요구량이 원활히 공급되고 있기 때문에 심박동률은 감소한 것으로 판단된다.
