background : many women suffer from perineal trauma during the normal vaginal delivery. perineal trauma is mainly associated with pain and complications after the childbirth. perineal management techniques can play a significant role in perineal trauma reduction. this study aimed to compare the effects of perineal management techniques (hands-off technique, ritgen maneuver and perineal massage ...

This study was performed following favorable results from a previous research, which studied the response of acute vestibular patients to the rotatory maneuver, to investigate the effects of the rotatory maneuver on chronic vestibular patients. In an attempt to normalize the patient’s directional preponderance (DP), and hence their vestibular symptoms, the study was designed to reduce the imbal...

The application of kalman filter in tracking the maneuver target is not available as it is used in tracking the target of uniform motion. Therefore, a improved method for tracking a maneuver target is proposed. In the proposed approach, the maneuver detector provides the estimate of time instant at which a target starts to maneuver, when a target maneuver is determined, the kalman filter model ...

The displacement of the larynx in the three specific directions (a) posteriorly against the cervical vertebrae, (b) superiorly as possible, and (c) slightly laterally to the right have been reported and named the "BURP" maneuver. We evaluated the efficacy of the BURP maneuver in improving visualization of the larynx. Six hundred thirty patients without obvious malformation of the head and neck ...

overtaking a slow lead vehicle is a complex maneuver because of the variety of overtaking conditions and driver behavior. in this study, two novel prediction models for overtaking behavior are proposed. these models are derived based on multi-input multi-output adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (manfis). they are validated at microscopic level and are able to simulate and predict the future...

the lane change maneuver is among the most popular driving behaviors. it is also the basic element of important maneuvers like overtaking maneuver. therefore, it is chosen as the focus of this study and novel multi-input multi-output adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system models (manfis) are proposed for this behavior. these models are able to simulate and predict the future behavior of a driver...
