Clinical parameter estimation from the electrocardiogram (ECG) is a recurrent field of research. It debated that ECG parameters estimated by human experts and machines/algorithms always model-based (implicitly or explicitly). Therefore, all algorithm used in this context have performance bounds terms achievable mean squared error, which are not exceedable. These depend on adopted data-model, sc...

it is now generally recognized that anaerobic bacteria may be involved in most human bacterial infections that follow any form of surgery or are related to those body sites that have a large anaerobic population. anaerobes must therefore be sought in a wide variety of clinical specimens. in this study, 3015 specimens of patients (1684 male and 1331 female) with periodontitis (160 cases), abcess...

the issue of medical errors is currently a global concern which places a heavy financial and emotional burden on communities. a clinical decision support system (cdss) is an electronic system designed to support clinical decision making. considering the increasing importance and use of systematized nomenclature of medicine-clinical terms (snomed-ct), we developed snomed-ct to implement it more ...
