A cost and outcomes comparison of a novel integrated pediatric air and ground transportation system.
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study is to compare air transportation of critically ill pediatric patients with a mixed air-ground transportation system by evaluating timeliness, safety, and cost. The setting was a tertiary care "hub" center with three outlying-referral "spoke" facilities. STUDY DESIGN Our study included 96 children transported between June and December 1997, with 45% constit...
متن کاملForces acting during air and ground transport on patients stabilized by standard immobilization techniques.
OBJECTIVE Transportation, whether by air or ground, exposes the injured patient to mechanical shocks and vibrations. These forces and their hazardous potential remain largely unknown. The purpose of this study was to identify, characterize, and compare the forces generated during patient transport in helicopter and ground ambulances. METHODS Forces generated during transport were measured usi...
متن کاملExposure-response relationships on community annoyance to transportation noise
The first synthesis study for the community response to noise was reported by Shultz in 1978 (Schultz 1978). It covers the response to all the traffic noise including aircraft as well as ground vehicles. Kryter found that the response to ground traffic noise differed from that to air traffic noise at the same exposure level (Kryter 1982). Finegold et al. reanalyzed the datasets and recommended ...

Introduction & Objective: Biological effects of ultraviolet (UV) radiation on the body of live organisms, have been studied by researchers in recent years. UV affects human organs such as skin, eyes and immune system, as well as animals and plants. The main natural source of UV radiation is the Sun. So, the integral observation of UV levels and their effects at ground level is important to dete...
متن کاملفعال سازی کاتالیست های TiO2 و ZnO غیر فعال شده توسط مواجهه با جریان هوای پاک و پرتو فرابنفش
Background and Objectives: Photocatalytic oxidation (PCO) is a promising method for the removal of volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Photocatalytic oxidation process, despite its advantages, has disadvantages such as deactivation of photocatalyst. The deactivated photocatalyst can be active through thermal abatement, ozonation, exposure with clean air and UV radiation. Materials and M...
