Abstract

Electrocardiogram (ECG) completion within 10 minutes for patients with suspected coronary heart disease is a quality marker for acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Controversy exists as to whether differences between genders in the frequency of atypical symptoms cause the observed differences in times to ECG (TECG) acquisition. Our goal was to assess whether delays observed between genders was attributable to differences in atypical symptom rates. Methods: Retrospective cross-sectional analysis of 8747 patients presenting to a Level 1 trauma hospital with a pre-specified set of “atypical” or “typical” chief complaints for ACS. Three-hundred patients were randomly selected for review. Hypotheses regarding TECG were tested using Kaplan-Meier survival analysis and proportional hazards regression. Chi-square, t-test, and Fisher’s exact test were used to compare demographic variables. Results: The sample consisted of 167 women and 133 men. Atypical complaints, walk-in, lower ESI Triage Criteria, and age

Abstract

The application of flow control techniques to conventional power transmission systems results not only in energy cost savings but also lowers mechanical stress and cost of maintenance. Currently, clutches, brakes, drive systems, servo/step motors are available to modulate line flow. The decision to install them, however, should be made based on torque, speed, load, cycle time and temperature requirements., Engineers traditionally design most systems with a service or 'fudge' factor in mind. There's usually extra power, extra torque or extra size available throughout an engineered system for 'just in [...]
