    Kateterisasi jantung dapat menimbulkan komplikasi vaskuler lokal dan neuropati femoral. Perawatan bertujuan mempertahankan hemostasis melalui penekanan mekanik bantal pasir dan cold-pack. Saat ini, durasi penekanan lebih dari dua jam menimbulkan rasa tidak nyaman. Tujuan penelitian untuk mengetahui apakah ada perbedaan kejadian kedua komplikasi menggunakan bantal pasir 1 jam dengan cold-pack 20 menit setelah pencabutan femoral sheaths. Rancangan penelitian randomized posttest-only control group design. Pemilihan sampel dengan consecutive sampling. Jumlah sampel adalah 40 pasien. Uji statistik menggunakan Fisher\u27s Exact Test. Hasil penelitian pada kelompok kontrol terdapat kejadian komplikasi vaskuler lokal 5,5 % dan neuropati femoral 11,1 %. Pada kelompok intervensi tidak ada kejadian komplikasi. Uji statistik menunjukkan tidak ada perbedaan yang bermakna antara kejadian komplikasi vaskuler lokal dan neuropati femoral pada kedua kelompok dengan p value 0, 450 dan 0,196 (p > 0,05). Penekanan mekanik bantal pasir 1 jam dan cold-pack 20 menit membantu pencapaian hemostasis sehingga dapat digunakan dalam perawatan pasca kateterisasi jantung

    A complementary relation between classical bits and randomness in local part in simulating singlet state

    Full text link
    Recently Leggett's proposal of non-local model generates new interest in simulating the statistics of singlet state. Singlet state statistics can be simulated by 1 bit of classical communication without using any further nonlocal correlation. But, interestingly, singlet state statistics can also be simulated with no classical cost if a non-local box is used. In the first case, the output is completely unbiased whereas in second case outputs are completely random. We suggest a new (possibly) signaling correlation resource which successfully simulates singlet statistics and this result suggests a new complementary relation between required classical bits and randomness in local output when the classical communication is limited by 1 cbit. This result reproduces the above two models of simulation as extreme cases. This also explains why Leggett's non-local model and the model presented by Branciard et.al. should fail to reproduce the statistics of a singlet.Comment: v3: Typos corrected, few changed notations, some extensions to earlier write-u

    This research study quantifies and describes suicide among South Asian Americans (SAAs), an emerging population that are underrepresented group in suicide research. The purpose of this study was to examine key characteristics of suicide deaths among SAAs. Data were employed from DuPage County, IL, a county with a large SAA population. Following federal recommendations for disaggregating Asian American data at a granular level, four SAA researchers used name recognition to identify all SAA cases classified as suicide in the DuPage County coroner’s database from 2001 to 2017 (N = 38). Coroner’s reports were analyzed for contextual details and correlating factors specific to each suicide. Overall, 76.3% of victims were male and 45.0% were married. An analysis of the coroner reports established that 71.1% of decedents showed behavioral disorders that were predisposing risk factors for suicide including mental health diagnoses (57.9%), and a reported prior suicide attempt (21.1%). Among these decedents only 34.2% had received any prior psychiatric care. Significant errors in racial classification of SAAs, lead to a gross undercount of SAA deaths by suicide with 55% of South Asian suicides assigned to a different race or ethnic group. Future studies must increase the scope of this research to other geographic locations with high concentrations of SAAs and examine the risk factors for suicide among SAAs, one of the fastest growing ethnic populations in the U.S

    The use of radio and microwave frequency is gainingimportance for industrial applications such asheating, drying, and other processing. The mostimportant advantage of using microwave is that it isnon-contact or localized heating and the heat isproduced within the material. This can be much moreeffective than indirect heating where the heatpropagation is by heat conduction through thematerial. We have been investigating the influence ofmicrowave radiation on different fibers for the lastfew years. In the present investigation we usedmicrowave frequency of 2450 MHz to investigate itseffect on polyester fibers. The polyester fibers wereheat set in air as well as a liquid, which acted as alossy substances. The liquid was chosen on the basisof earlier experiments, which showed the maximumeffect. A comparative study was also carried outusing conventional heating in silicone oil.Using the method of X-ray Diffraction (XRD) wecalculated the changes in % crystallinity andorientation. It was found that as the time of treatmentunder microwave radiation increased from 15 sec. to120 sec. the order factor was found to increase from0.32 to 0.71.The crystalline orientation as determinedfrom the azimuthal scan was also found to increase.Such structural changes can be highly beneficial forthe processing of fabric in industry. The microwaveradiation process is fast, reliable and energy saving

    Kebijakan tax amnesty diprediksi akan memberikan tambahan pendapatan negara melalui dana yang masuk melalui repatriasi maupun uang tebusan. Dana yang masuk diharuskan berada di Indonesia minimal 3(tiga) tahun untuk di investasikan. Kebijakan tax amnesty diyakini memiliki kandungan informasi terhadap pasar modal Indonesia sehingga akan memberikan reaksi terhadap harga saham. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode studi peristiwa (event study) dengan periode pengamatan selama 10 hari bursa mulai dari tanggal 11 Juli 2016 sampai dengan 15 Juli 2016 dan 19 Juli 2016 sampai dengan 25 Juli 2016, yaitu 5 hari sebelum dan 5 hari setelah pengumuman pemberlakuan tax amnesty periode pertama. Sampel yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini berjumlah 20 Perusahaan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk melihat apakah ada perbedaan harga saham di sektor properti yang tercatat di Bursa Efek Indonesia pada saat sebelum dan sesudah peristiwa pengumuman tax amnesty periode pertama resmi diberlakukan. Pengujian dilakukan terhadap rata-rata abnormal return yang diuji secara simultan. Pengujian dilakukan dengan SPSS 23 dengan alat uji paired sample t test. Pengujian statistik paired sample t test menunjukkan nilai yang tidak signifikan yang dilihat dari t hitung < t tabel, yang artinya tidak terdapat perbedaan abnormal return pada saat sebelum dan sesudah pengumuman tax amnesty periode pertama resmi berlaku. Hasil penelitian tersebut didukung dengan data dari Bursa Efek Indonesia yang mengatakan bahwa dana tax amnesty masih mengendap di bank gateway dan dana yang masuk ke pasar modal masih minim. Selain itu informasi tax amnesty dapat diterima secara luas, sehingga investor dapat mengantisipasi

    This study describes analysis of tower footing resistance effected backflash voltage across a transmission line 115 kV insulator at PT. Chevron Pacific Indonesia. Back flashover analysis on insulator string provides ATP software for simulation. Analysis process is done by the entire transmission line parameter model such as a tower, lightning impulse, power line conductor and tower footing resistance. The factor of this study includes,front time of lightning stroke, and tower resistance. Simulations is done with lighting strike on the tower and mid-span with four types of impulse. To analysis of tower footing resistance effected back flashover across a transmission system insulator, Simulations are done by varying the tower footing resistance from 1Ω - 30Ω. Over Voltage on insulator for every tower footing resistance will be compare to critical flashover insulator (CFO) in order to obtain the maximum resistance is allowed to avoid the back flashover on insulator
