Consensus protocol for EEG and amplitude-integrated EEG assessment and monitoring in neonates
The aim of this work is to establish inclusive guidelines on electroencephalography (EEG) applicable to all neonatal intensive care units (NICUs). Guidelines on ideal EEG monitoring for neonates are available, but there are significant barriers to their implementation in many centres around the world. These includebarriers due to limited resources regarding the availability of equipment and technical and interpretive round-the-clock personnel. On the other hand, despite its limitations, amplitude-integrated EEG (aEEG) (previously called Cerebral Function Monitor [CFM]) is a common alternative used in NICUs.The Italian Neonatal Seizure Collaborative Network (INNESCO), working with all nation…
Hybrid model of an inventer-induction motor system
A model of the three-phase bridge inverter with a wide range of validity is proposed. This model can be used for the simulation of the inverter induction motor system on a hybrid computer or an analogue computer. In the latter case it is necessary to achieve a logical device which realizes the inverter model. After a block diagram for the simulation of the inverter induction motor system is illustrated as well as the circuital diagram of the device which simulates the inverter. Finally the authors describe the tests carried out in order to verify the validity of the inverter model and the correct operating of the device which simulates the inverter.
