USE OF SIMULATORS IN VIDEO LAPAROSCOPIC SURGERY IN MEDICAL TRAINING: A PROSPECTIVE COURT STUDY WITH MEDICINE ACADEMIC AT A UNIVERSITY IN SOUTHERN BRAZIL

ABSTRACT Introduction: the onset of minimally invasive surgery, such as laparoscopic surgery, was accompanied by an increased frequency of complications, many of which were life-threatening.With the objective of minimizing morbidity and mortality and accelerating the learning curve, video laparoscopic surgery simulators were developed to improve th

A major challenge for the treatment of alcohol use disorder (AUD) is relapse to alcohol use, even after protracted periods of self-imposed abstinence.Stress significantly contributes to the chronic relapsing nature of AUD, given its long-lasting ability to elicit intense craving and precipitate relapse.As individuals transition to alcohol dependenc

A new chaotic map based Washers IP (Intellectual Property) watermarking scheme at physical design level is presented.An encrypted watermark is embedded into the physical layout of a circuit by configuring LUT (Lookup Table) as specific functions when it is placed and routed onto the FPGA (Field-Programmable Gate Array).The main contribution is the

This study is interested in extracting representative features of the ultrasonic phased array image intelligent classification of the internal defects of naval gun mounts.Thus, an improved sparse self-encoding network model (RSAE) is proposed to realize the re-expression of sample data.First of all, in intelligent classification, the deterministic

This paper considers a K-user multiple-input single-output interference channel for simultaneous wireless information and power transfer, where each multi-antenna transmitter serves a single-antenna receiver per user pair.All receivers perform simultaneously information processing and energy harvesting (EH) based on the receive power-splitting (PS)
