Background: Prevention of catheter-related infection is of prime importance,. However, because of the risks caused by the leakage of circulating antibiotics and development of resistance to antibiotics, they are replaced by lock solutions. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and cost- effectiveness of taurolidine-citrate as a hemodialysis catheter lock solution compared to other ...

BACKGROUND Carotid endarterectomy is the most common vascular procedure performed, with an annual cost of $1.2 billion. Efforts to control the cost associated with this procedure include limiting preoperative studies, avoiding admissions to the intensive care unit, and encouraging early postoperative discharge. METHODS To determine our surgical results and the cost associated with this proced...

The importance of home healthcare telemonitoring for elderly and outpatients has been widely recognised. However, the adoption rate of home healthcare telemonitoring remains low due to limited evidence for cost-effectiveness. The core objective of this work is the cost-effective design of a real-time home healthcare telemonitoring system based on mobile cloud computing. A second objective is to...

Cost-effective healthcare has become a principal paradigm in all areas of medicine. In order to establish cost-effective care, clinical outcomes under various cost conditions have to be examined. Such a process cannot be static since it has to consider ever evolving treatments and outcome results. In infertility, the evaluation of cost-effective care should be simpler than in most other areas o...

Small Beowulf clusters can effectively serve as personal or group supercomputers. In such an environment, a cluster can be optimally designed for a specific problem (or a small set of codes). We discuss how theoretical analysis of the code and benchmarking on similar hardware lead to optimal systems.

innovation &IN THE NANOSCALE regime, speed and density of semiconductor technology continue to increase. However, skyrocketing design costs for developing gigascale system chips have effectively slowed the creation of new design projects. Such a trend could stifle further innovation and advancement in the semiconductor industry. A recent joint report from the Semiconductor Research Corporation ...
