MAC protocols for wireless sensor networks
The paper presents a brief survey of the Medium Access Control (MAC) protocols for Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN). It describes pros and cons of some known solutions of the MAC protocols with emphasis on his energy efficiency. The main goal in WSN is prolonging the lifetime of the sensor node, that is usually battery powered and can thus be achieved by designing energy-efficient MAC protocols. ...

متن کاملCardiac Pacemaker and Wireless Capsule Endoscopy Interference: Case Report in a Patient with Gastric Vascular Ectasias
Wireless capsule endoscopy is a new endoscopic tool for the diagnosis and management of small bowel diseases. The main indication at present is the evaluation of GI bleeding of obscure origin, Crohn’s disease, coeliac disease and small bowel tumors. Studies suggest that capsule endoscopy is associated with few adverse events. Whether cardiac pacemaker may interfere with capsule endoscopy is sti...
متن کاملAcute small bowel perforation after wireless capsule endoscopy in a patient with Crohn’s disease: a case report
INTRODUCTION Wireless capsule endoscopy is an important tool for minimally invasive evaluation of the small bowel, allowing improved diagnostic yield with low complication rates relative to traditional modalities. Recently however, reports on small bowel perforation after wireless capsule endoscopy have surfaced. Here we present the first case of acute small bowel perforation in a middle-aged m...
