What is a Positive Intervention? Theoretical, Empirical and Experiential Perspectives.
(Universidad de Palermo, 2009)
Three interrelated threads of inquiry -theoretical, empirical, and experiential-
are pursued to answer one fundamental question: what is a positive intervention?
Part 1 proposes a theoretical definition of the term ...
Pre-oxygenation in the obese patient: effects of position on tolerance to apnoea
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2005)
Background. In obese patients, reduced functional residual capacity exacerbated by supine position might decrease the effectiveness of pre-oxygenation and the tolerance to apnoea. The aim of this study was to compare the ...
Effects of breathing type on electromyographic activity of respiratory muscles at different body positions
(Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2017)
AIM:
To compare the effect of breathing type on the activity of respiratory muscles at different body positions.
METHODOLOGY:
Two groups of 20 subjects each, one with upper costal and the other with costodiaphragmatic ...
Correlation between ionospheric scintillation effects and GNSS positioning over Brazil during the last solar maximum (2012–2014)
(2019-01-01)
GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite Systems) can provide high accuracy positioning at low cost. But, depending on the sources of error, e.g. the atmospheric effects, this accuracy can be degraded. The ionosphere is one of ...
A Context-Aware Model to Provide Positioning in Disaster Relief Scenarios
(2015)
The effectiveness of the work performed during disaster relief efforts is highly dependent on the coordination of activities conducted by the first responders deployed in the affected area. Such coordination, in turn, ...
Extension of PT-symmetric quantum mechanics to the Dirac theory with position-dependent mass
(Academic Press Inc. Elsevier B.V., 2008-03-01)
We present a new method to construct the exactly solvable PT-symmetric potentials within the framework of the position-dependent effective mass Dirac equation with the vector potential coupling scheme in 1 + 1 dimensions. ...
