Oxytocin is the first-line agent in the prevention and treatment of uterine atony and maintenance of uterine tone. Since there are several different practices related to the use of oxytocin during caesarean sections, we would like to address the latest information and evidence for rational oxytocin use.

Objective: To evaluate the management process and the guidelines for management of postpartum hemorrhage due to uterine atony at the General Hospital Vienna, Medical University Vienna. Material and Methods: A retrospective analysis was carried out on all 24 cases of postpartum hemorrhage due to uterine atony with an estimated blood loss of more than 800 mL, in which standardized guidelines were...

This paper addresses an estimation problem of the ball’s state of spin in RoboCup Small Size League (SSL). A spinning ball varies its speed after the ball bounces off the floor. This paper proposes an image-based estimation method of the ball’s state of spin, in particular, by using inertia feature of co-occurrence matrix of the image sequence. The effectiveness of our proposed method is shown ...

This article describes an efŽ cient recursive algorithm for the computation of the operational space inertia matrix of an n-link branching robotic mechanism with multiple .m/ operational points. The proposed algorithm achieves the complexity of O.nm Cm3/. Sincem can be considered as a small constant in practice, as the number of links increases, this algorithm performs signiŽ cantly better than...

An algorithm is presented to fit precipitates in atom probe tomographic data sets as equivalent ellipsoids. Unlike previous techniques, which measure only the radius of gyration, these ellipsoids retain the moments of inertia and principle axes of the original precipitate, preserving crystallographic orientational information. The algorithm is applied to study interconnected γ-precipitates (L12...

In this paper a new algorithm based on phasor measurements for estimating the Thévenin Equivalent (TE) and system inertia constant is proposed. The method estimates the network TE seen from a generator terminal and equivalent system inertia constant by means of phasor data that is available at Phasor Data Concentrator (PDC) center. It is shown that the parameters of the TE could be estimated at...

in which certain therapies have adequate, even overwhelming if not unequivocal, evidence of effectiveness.5 Clinical inertia occurs, for example, when the patient fails to attain a biomarker goal (e.g., blood pressure less than 140/90 millimeters of mercury [mm Hg]) due at least in part to failure to intensify pharmacotherapy through upward dosing and/or addition of drugs to the therapeutic reg...
