    Masalah yang sering kali dihadapi ketika mengakses video streaming dan VOIP adalah ketersediaan bandwidth untuk masing-masing pengguna. Keterbatasan ini disebabkan karna kurangnya manajemen bandwidth untuk dibagikan kepada pengguna. Untuk mengatasi masalah tersebut, maka akan dilakukan manajemen bandwidth menggunakan metode Per Connection Queue (PCQ). PCQ adalah metode yang berfungsi untuk membagi bandwidth secara merata kepada setiap pengguna. Kemudian akan dilakukan pengukuran berdasarkan parameter yang dimiliki QOS (Quality of Service) antara lain delay, throughput, packet loss dan jitter. Penelitian ini juga menggunakan metode Study Literature sebagai metode pengumpulan data dan metode Action Research sebagai metode yang digunakan untuk pengerjaan penelitian ini. Hasil yang didapatkan dari penelitian ini adalah lebih meratanya pembagian bandwidth kepada setiap pengguna. Pengaruh yang dibawa oleh PCQ berdampak sesuai dengan fungsi asli dari PCQ itu sendiri. Kemudian packet loss dapat ditekan dapat dilihat dari perbandingan 1 dan 4, packet loss tertinggi sebelum diterapkan PCQ mencapai 81.6% dan mencapai persentase terendah mencapai 73%. Pengukuran jitter meraih hasil terbaik yaitu 0ms. Bandwidth 1 Mbps dapat menampung 32 pengguna dengan baik ketika menjalankan VOIP. Butuh lebih dari 4 Mbps untuk menjalankan video streaming untuk 32 pengguna dengan baik

    INTRODUCTION Diagnostic tools to show emboli reliably and protection techniques against embolization when employing stent retrievers are necessary to improve endovascular stroke therapy. The aim of the present study was to investigate iatrogenic emboli using susceptibility-weighted imaging (SWI) in an open series of patients who had been treated with stent retriever thrombectomy using emboli protection techniques. METHODS Patients with anterior circulation stroke examined with MRI before and after stent retriever thrombectomy were assessed for iatrogenic embolic events. Thrombectomy was performed in flow arrest and under aspiration using a balloon-mounted guiding catheter, a distal access catheter, or both. RESULTS In 13 of 57 patients (22.8 %) post-interventional SWI sequences detected 16 microemboli. Three of them were associated with small ischemic lesions on diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI). None of the microemboli were located in a new vascular territory, none showed clinical signs, and all 13 patients have been rated as Thrombolysis in Cerebral Infarction (TICI) 2b (n = 3) or 3 (n = 10). Retrospective reevaluation of the digital subtraction angiography (DSA) detected discrete flow stagnation nearby the iatrogenic microemboli in four patients with a positive persistent collateral sign in one. CONCLUSION Our study demonstrates two things: First, SWI seems to be more sensitive to detect emboli than DWI and DSA and, second, proximal or distal protected stent retriever thrombectomy seems to prevent iatrogenic embolization into new vascular territories during retraction of the thrombus, but not downstream during mobilization of the thrombus. Both techniques should be investigated and refined further

    BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Lesion volume on diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DWI) before acute stroke therapy is a predictor of outcome. Therefore, patients with large volumes are often excluded from therapy. The aim of this study was to analyze the impact of endovascular treatment in patients with large DWI lesion volumes (>70 mL). METHODS Three hundred seventy-two patients with middle cerebral or internal carotid artery occlusions examined with magnetic resonance imaging before treatment since 2004 were included. Baseline data and 3 months outcome were recorded prospectively. DWI lesion volumes were measured semiautomatically. RESULTS One hundred five patients had lesions >70 mL. Overall, the volume of DWI lesions was an independent predictor of unfavorable outcome, survival, and symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage (P70 mL, 11 of 31 (35.5%) reached favorable outcome (modified Rankin scale score, 0-2) after thrombolysis in cerebral infarction 2b-3 reperfusion in contrast to 3 of 35 (8.6%) after thrombolysis in cerebral infarction 0-2a reperfusion (P=0.014). Reperfusion success, patient age, and DWI lesion volume were independent predictors of outcome in patients with DWI lesions >70 mL. Thirteen of 66 (19.7%) patients with lesions >70 mL had symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage with a trend for reduced risk with avoidance of thrombolytic agents. CONCLUSIONS There was a growing risk for poor outcome and symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage with increasing pretreatment DWI lesion volumes. Nevertheless, favorable outcome was achieved in every third patient with DWI lesions >70 mL after successful endovascular reperfusion, whereas after poor or failed reperfusion, outcome was favorable in only every 12th patient. Therefore, endovascular treatment might be considered in patients with large DWI lesions, especially in younger patients
