Late reoperations for Fontan patients: state of the art invited review.
Conversion of the atriopulmonary Fontan to a total cavopulmonary extracardiac connection with concomitant arrhythmia surgery and pacemaker placement is a safe and efficacious procedure for this patient population. From 1994 to 2007 a total of 118 patients have undergone this procedure with one (0.8%) early and nine (7.6%) late deaths. During the course of our experience with Fontan conversion o...
متن کاملLate reoperations for squint.
Ten patients in the age range 2 to 22 years are described who had operations initially for squint in childhood. Nine had had concomitant convergent strabismus and one divergent. All presented again in adult life with a cosmetic complaint, but two also had diplopia. Reoperations were done, age range 14 to 43. These ten were all the "late reoperations" for squint which were done during the four y...
متن کاملInvited Review DNA-mediated artificial nanobiostructures: state of the art and future directions
DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid)-mediated assembly of nanometer and micrometer scale structures can have a profound impact in the fields of nanoelectronics and nanotechnology. Such structures can also find applications in microelectromechanical systems, hybrid bio-sensors, and the potential to continue the scaling of Moore’s law beyond the 50 nm node. While engineers and scientists have been long as...
متن کاملInvited Paper Fast Fourier Transforms: a Tutorial Review and a State of the Art
The publication of the Cooley-Tukey fast Fourier transform (FIT) algorithm in 1965 has opened a new area in digital signal processing by reducing the order of complexity of some crucial computational tasks like Fourier transform and convolution from N 2 to N log2 N, where N is the problem size. The development of the major algorithms (Cooley-Tukey and split-radix FFT, prime factor algorithm and...
متن کاملA state-of-the-art review of mechanical rock excavation technologies
The first step in mining activities is rock excavation in both mine development and production. Constant pressure for cost reduction and creating an improved/safe work environment for personnel has naturally resulted in increased use of mechanical excavation systems in many mining operations. Also, mechanical excavation and mining is more compatible with automation, meaning possibility of reduc...
