drug interaction may cause sever adverse drug reactions in patients. the high amounts of prescribed medication in hospitalized patients will cause higher incidence of drug interactions. therefore, the study of drug interactions in hospitalized patients seems to be worth. we have, studied drug interaction in internal and surgical units, in kashani hospital in shahrekord. factors included in this...

Direct networks have become a popular way to interconnect processing nodes of todays larger commercial and research multiprocessors. The design of such direct networks is important, since it has a large eeect on the performance, cost, and the scalability of the system. The behavior of a direct network is determined primarily by how it does switching, routing and ow-control. This survey article ...

background demand for icu beds is exceeding its supply. since the sources are limited in some centers, it is necessary to design a model to identify the patients who benefit more from icu beds. objectives the present study aimed to develop a model to prioritize adult patients according to their clinical indications by a three rounded delphi method study. patients and methods in this study, 22 p...

background critically ill patients under mechanical ventilation require frequent suctioning of airway secretion. closed suction permits suctioning without disconnection from ventilator; so it might decrease hypoxemia and infection rate. objectives this study aimed to evaluate the effect of closed tracheal suction system (ctss) versus open tracheal suction system (otss). patients and methods thi...

today, vehicular ad-hoc network between automobiles has been accepted by the public, and many people are interested in exchanging information with other vehicles as well as with roadside equipment while driving. when a number of vehicles want to access to the data stored in rsu ,the priority of servicing comes into face .in this case, some  methods, such as d*s, d*s/n,  have been presented so f...

motor units (mus) reflect the function of the central nervous motor system. thus, the estimated mu number is a good option to investigate the functional movement disorder in the parkinson’s disease (pd). the purpose of this study was to compare the estimated mus number in the medial gastrocnemius (mg) muscle of the normal rats and those with the parkinsonism. the mg muscle of two age-matched gr...
