Laser Soldering of Rat Skin Using a Controlled Feedback System
Introduction: Laser tissue soldering using albumin and indocyanine green dye (ICG) is an effective technique utilized in various surgical procedures. The purpose of this study was to perform laser soldering of rat skin under a feedback control system and compare the results with those obtained using standard sutures. Material and Methods: Skin incisions were made over eight rats’ dorsa, which w...
متن کاملDrug overdose due to malfunction of a patient-controlled analgesia machine -A case report-
Patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) provides excellent pain control and high stability, thereby minimizing the incidence of adverse effects. However, one of our patients experienced respiratory depression and hypotension within 30 minutes of initiation of PCA therapy. We discovered that machine malfunction caused continuous activation of the PCA button, resulting in a drug overdose. The PCA mach...
متن کاملFeedback Controlled Software Systems
Software systems generally suffer from a certain fragility in the face of “disturbances” such as bugs, unforseen user input, unmodeled interactions with other software components, and so on. A single such disturbance can make the machine on which the software is executing hang or crash. What seems to be required to address this fragility is a general means of using feedback to stabilize these s...
متن کاملThermodynamics of feedback controlled systems.
We compute the entropy reduction in feedback controlled systems due to the repeated operation of the controller. This was the lacking ingredient to establish the thermodynamics of these systems, and in particular of Maxwell's demons. We illustrate some of the consequences of our general results by deriving the maximum work that can be extracted from isothermal feedback controlled systems. As a ...
