A Us Hospital Budget Impact Analysis Of A Skin Closure System Compared With Standard Of Care In Hip And Knee Arthroplasty., Kay Sadik, Jana Flener, Jeanine Gargiulo, Zachary D. Post, Steven Wurzelbacher, Andrew Hogan, Sarah Hollmann, Nicole Ferko Dec 2018

A Us Hospital Budget Impact Analysis Of A Skin Closure System Compared With Standard Of Care In Hip And Knee Arthroplasty., Kay Sadik, Jana Flener, Jeanine Gargiulo, Zachary D. Post, Steven Wurzelbacher, Andrew Hogan, Sarah Hollmann, Nicole Ferko

Department of Orthopaedic Surgery Faculty Papers

Background: Medicare's mandatory bundle for hip and knee arthroplasty necessitates provider accountability for quality and cost of care to 90 days, and wound closure may be a key area of consideration. The DERMABOND

Methods: A 90-day economic model was developed assuming 500 annual hip/knee arthroplasties for a typical US hospital setting. In current practice, wound closure methods for the final skin layer were set to 50% sutures and 50% staples. In future practice, this distribution shifted to 20% sutures, 20% staples, and 60% Skin Closure System. Health care resources included materials (eg, staplers, steri-strips, and traditional/barbed sutures), standard or premium …

Sub-Nanometer Coupling Distance Control And Plasmon Enhanced Carrier Generation And Dynamics In Iii-V Semiconductor Heterostructures, Sharmin Haq Dec 2018

Sub-Nanometer Coupling Distance Control And Plasmon Enhanced Carrier Generation And Dynamics In Iii-V Semiconductor Heterostructures, Sharmin Haq

Optical Science and Engineering ETDs

Plasmonic modes in metal nanostructures enable light confinement at subwavelength scales. This field confinement is important for exploring the potential of nanotechnology in miniaturization of optics as well as for the advancement of optoelectronic devices, such as photodetectors, photovoltaics, and light-emitting diodes. Plasmon resonances are also ideal for developing ultrasensitive biosensors, and for enhancing surface photochemistry and photocatalysis. The increasing number of plasmon applications requires fundamental understanding of the plasmon coupled system which has not yet been completely understood. Controlling and engineering the plasmon response at the nanoscale will open still more applications in material science, communications, biochemistry and medicine. …


Effect Of Strong Electrolyte Containing Gelling Aids On The Sol-Gel Transition Temperature Of Hypromellose 2910, Elnaz Sadeghi Dec 2018

Effect Of Strong Electrolyte Containing Gelling Aids On The Sol-Gel Transition Temperature Of Hypromellose 2910, Elnaz Sadeghi

Biomedical Engineering ETDs

Hypromellose, or hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) - has been widely used for biomedical and pharmaceutical applications due to its advantages, including that it is modifiable in terms of viscosity, and it has the ability to form thermally reversible hydrogels. The thermal gelation temperature (TGel) of a given HPMC solution strongly depends on its characteristic grade and the solution concentration. Applying certain additives can modify the TGel even further; depending on their nature and concentration. With the addition of said additives, a lower or higher TGel can be obtained. For example, the addition of sodium chloride (NaCl) reduces …


The Influence Of Slope On Vegetation Recovery Following Nonnative Grazer Removal On Santa Rosa Island, California, Ryan Summers, Jamie Masukawa, Brett D. Hartman Dec 2018

The Influence Of Slope On Vegetation Recovery Following Nonnative Grazer Removal On Santa Rosa Island, California, Ryan Summers, Jamie Masukawa, Brett D. Hartman

Western North American Naturalist

Ecosystem restoration efforts have been ongoing on the Channel Islands of California since the 1980s. Although these island ecosystems evolved without ungulate grazers, large nonnative grazers, including sheep, cattle, feral pigs, deer, and elk, were present on the islands for over 160 years. Intensive grazing led to reductions in the extent of woody vegetation, increases in the area of grassland and bare ground, and widespread landsliding and gully erosion. This study focuses on Santa Rosa Island, the second largest (215.3 km2) island in Channel Islands National Park. After the park was created in 1980, the National Park Service …

Increasing Revenue By Applying Machine Learning To Congestion Management In Sdn, Nabarun Jana Dec 2018

Increasing Revenue By Applying Machine Learning To Congestion Management In Sdn, Nabarun Jana

Theses

With the advent of 5G, IoT and 4k videos, online gaming, movie streaming and other data intensive applications, the demand for data is sky rocketing. Due to this surge in data, the load on the network increases. This heightened network load causes degradation in network performance. Which can lead to the customer Service Provider (CSP)s loosing revenue if the Service Level Agreement (SLA) are not met.

This report describes how machine learning techniques such as tit for tat can be applied to telecom networks. Machine learning applied to telecom networks help detect congestion and maintain SLAs while increasing yield (revenue). …


Properties Of Mixing Sac Solder Alloys With Bismuth-Containing Solder Alloys For A Low Reflow Temperature Process, Tayler John Swanson Dec 2018

Properties Of Mixing Sac Solder Alloys With Bismuth-Containing Solder Alloys For A Low Reflow Temperature Process, Tayler John Swanson

Theses

The subject of extensive research has been the establishing of lower temperature soldering of electronic assemblies that are similar to the once common yet still preferred eutectic Tin-Lead (SnPb) soldering manufacturing processes that are below 217˚C. This research opportunity will contribute data on mixed solder alloy assemblies that can be formed at lower process temperatures. There are many environmental and economic benefits of avoiding the current reliability concerns of assembling electronics at the standard high temperatures which peak at 230˚C 260˚C. To reduce this temperature the use of Bismuth containing solder pastes are mixing with the standard high temperature SAC …

Pantry: A Macro Library For Python, Derek Pang Dec 2018

Pantry: A Macro Library For Python, Derek Pang

Master's Projects

Python lacks a simple way to create custom syntax and constructs that goes outside of its own syntax rules. A paradigm that allows for these possibilities to exist within languages is macros. Macros allow for a shorter set of syntax to expand into a longer set of instructions at compile-time. This gives the capability to evolve the language to fit personal needs.

Pantry, implements a hygienic text-substitution macro system for Python. Pantry achieves this through the introduction of an additional preparsing step that utilizes parsing and lexing of the source code. Pantry proposes a way to simply declare a pattern …
