Full textAbstract:
Pocket-size hand-held echocardiography (PHE) is low cost, portable, user friendly, and battery powered. Studies using PHE do not replace conventional echo studies and do not provide a complete diagnostic echocardiographic examination. PHE should be used for goal-oriented studies that include assessment of left ventricular (LV) cavity size, LV systolic function, detection of pericardial effusion, and haemodynamic compromise. Examinations using PHE have been demonstrated to be feasible and provide additional information to the physical examination. For potential users other than cardiology experts in echocardiography the accuracy of PHE data highly depends on training and competency. Emphasis must be placed on acquisition of good quality images and knowledge of pitfalls and limitations. The challenge is providing efficient training programmes to ensure competency in performing focused studies and have recognition of an appropriate threshold for seeking expert advice and full echo examination. PHE is a useful teaching tool and provides important complementary information for medical education.

Full textAbstract:
The purpose of this book is to provide a useful, easily accessible, and user-friendly clinical tool that can be used in the every day clinical practice. Definition, epidemiology, aetiology, and pathophysiology and genetics of cardiac diseases are summarized according to recent evidence. Presentation of diseases, physical findings and investigations for a contemporary, evidence- based approach are organized in a clear and instructive manner. The management of the patient is presented according to most recent randomized control trials and recommendations of guidelines by the ACC/AHA and the ESC. Most recent guidelines and updates have been collected for each topic, and current recommendations have been extracted and presented in abbreviated tables. The reference list is aimed at presenting seminal studies that support statements in the book, randomized control trials that are dictating modern management, and scholarly, instructive reviews that have appeared in the major cardiology journals. Recent only articles are presented in order to guide potential further reading. The on-line editions of the book are updated on a regular basis.

Full textAbstract:
This book provides a detailed, step-by-step description of a model quality improvement intervention for hospitals, pinpointing the obstacles and showing how to surmount them. This second edition has been carefully updated, with new material describing some technical aspects of infection prevention, new tools for use by front-line providers, and results of recent large collaborative infection prevention studies. In easy-to-read, user-friendly language, it explains why clinicians neglect or actively oppose quality changes—from physicians who distrust change, to nurses who want to protect their turf, to infection preventionists who avoid the wards. The book also sheds light on how and why hospitals embark on quality improvements, the role of the hospital’s leadership cadre, the selection and training of the project team, and how to sustain quality gains long term. The intervention framework described in the book focuses on the prevention of hospital-associated infections—in particular, catheter-associated urinary tract infection (CAUTI)—but it is directly applicable to a variety of other hospital issues, such as falls, pressure sores, and Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI). In fact, the book includes a chapter applying this framework to a CDI prevention initiative. In addition, for hospitals having trouble with staff adherence to a quality initiative, we provide three infection-specific questionnaires (for CAUTI, CLABSI, and CDI) to help pinpoint individual problems, and provide a link to a website offering advice tailored to their specific circumstances.

Fraleigh, Sondra, ed. Dance Maps. University of Illinois Press, 2017. http://dx.doi.org/10.5406/illinois/9780252039409.003.0013.
Full textAbstract:
This section discusses Dance Maps, user-friendly maps that present simple structures for use as a guide for dance experiences. Designed for those who want to claim the dancer within, from the professional dancer to the novice, Dance Maps are performance templates not only for the studio but also for natural and architected environments. They are intended to help spark creative uses of transformational dance somatics. Several authors of this book provide examples, including a version of “Be a Stone” and “Be Spinach and Stone Butoh” mapped by Sondra Fraleigh; Back-to-Back exploration for Catherine Schaeffer’s “Motional Baggage”; Ecodances mapped by Alison East; a memory-based transformational Dance Map mapped by Kelly Ferris Lester; and a movement meditation mapped by Robert Bingham. These examples show how teachers of dance in somatic contexts can engage in community building through exploration of choreographic and improvisational structures based on Dance Maps.

Kreps, David M. A Course in Microeconomic Theory. Princeton University Press, 2020. http://dx.doi.org/10.23943/princeton/9780691202754.001.0001.
Full textAbstract:
This book is a text in microeconomics that is both challenging and “user-friendly.” The work is designed for the first-year graduate microeconomic theory course and is accessible to advanced undergraduates as well. Placing unusual emphasis on modern noncooperative game theory, it provides the student and instructor with a unified treatment of modern microeconomic theory — one that stresses the behavior of the individual actor (consumer or firm) in various institutional settings. The author has taken special pains to explore the fundamental assumptions of the theories and techniques studied, pointing out both strengths and weaknesses. The book begins with an exposition of the standard models of choice and the market, with extra attention paid to choice under uncertainty and dynamic choice. General and partial equilibrium approaches are blended, so that the student sees these approaches as points along a continuum. The work then turns to more modern developments. Readers are introduced to noncooperative game theory and shown how to model games and determine solution concepts. Models with incomplete information, the folk theorem and reputation, and bilateral bargaining are covered in depth, followed by exploration of information economics. A closing discussion concerns firms as organizations and gives readers a taste of transaction-cost economics.

Full textAbstract:
This book shows how changes in music software design in the first decades of the twenty-first century shaped the production techniques and performance practices of artists across media, from hip-hop and electronic dance music to video games and mobile apps. Emerging alongside developments in digital music distribution such as peer-to-peer file sharing and the MP3 format, digital audio workstations (DAWs) such as FL Studio and Ableton’s Live encouraged rapid music-creation workflows through flashy, user-friendly interfaces. Meanwhile, software such as Avid’s Pro Tools attempted to protect its status as the industry-standard “professional” DAW by incorporating design elements from predigital technologies. Other software, such as Cycling ’74’s Max, asserted its alterity to “commercial” DAWs by offering users just a blank screen. The book examines the social, cultural, and political values designed into music software and how those become embodied by musical communities through production and performance. It reveals ties between maximalist design in FL Studio, skeuomorphic design in Pro Tools, and gender inequity in the music products industry. It connects the computational thinking required by Max and iZotope’s innovations in artificial intelligence with the cultural politics of Silicon Valley’s “design thinking.” Finally, it examines what happens when software becomes hardware and users externalize their screens using musical instrument digital interface (MIDI) controllers, mobile media, and video-game controllers. Amid the perpetual upgrade culture of music technology, Push the book provides a model for understanding software as a microcosm for the increasing convergence of globalization, neoliberal capitalism, and techno-utopianism that has come to define our digital lives.
