Opioid Free Anesthesia To Prevent Post Operative Nausea/Vomiting, Aleksander Acred, Milena Devineni, Lindsey Blake, Cindi Dabney Dnp, Crna Jul 2021

Opioid Free Anesthesia To Prevent Post Operative Nausea/Vomiting, Aleksander Acred, Milena Devineni, Lindsey Blake, Cindi Dabney Dnp, Crna

Doctor of Nursing Practice Projects

Purpose The purpose of this study is to compare the incidence of post-operative nausea and vomiting (PONV) in opioid-utilizing and opioid-free general anesthesia. Background PONV is an extremely common, potentially dangerous side effect of general anesthesia. PONV is caused by a collection of anesthetic and surgical interventions. Current practice to prevent PONV is to use 1-2 antiemetics during surgery, identify high risk patients and utilize tracheal intubation over laryngeal airways when indicated. Current research suggests minimizing the use of volatile anesthetics and opioids can reduce the incidence of PONV, but this does not reflect current practice.

Methods In this scoping …


Advanced Methods For Steady-State And Stability Analyses Of Hybrid Power Systems, Mohammad Mehdi Rezvani Jul 2021

Advanced Methods For Steady-State And Stability Analyses Of Hybrid Power Systems, Mohammad Mehdi Rezvani

LSU Doctoral Dissertations

The term hybrid power grids refer to the combination of two power systems with different intrinsic characteristic. For instance, ac-dc grids and transmission-distribution systems are kinds of hybrid power grids. Challenges in analyzing the hybrid power grids arise since two sets of equations should be solved either simultaneously or sequentially. In the simultaneous (unified) methods, the ac and dc system of equations are solved simultaneously, while, in the sequential approaches, these equations are solved in an error loop. In this dissertation, a unified method is proposed for steady-state and fault analyses of hybrid ac-dc power grids, while a sequential approach …


Notice: Aircraft Lien Law In Florida, Timothy M. Ravich Jul 2021

Notice: Aircraft Lien Law In Florida, Timothy M. Ravich

University of Miami Law Review

Establishing (e.g., perfecting) and enforcing a lien presents technical pitfalls and practical problems with which practitioners and courts are often unfamiliar or uncomfortable. After all, the law of liens requires an understanding of many different areas of the law, including the law of contract, bailment, unjust enrichment, and customary law. But among the most fraught with uncertainty are mechanic’s liens, which establish a right in favor of persons—“artisans”—performing or furnishing labor, services, fuel, or material upon personal property. Florida’s mechanic’s lien statute raises particularly challenging legal issues as applied to aircraft.
In Florida, the perfection and enforcement of a mechanic’s …

An Integrative Model For Soil Biogeochemistry And Methane Processes. Ii: Warming And Elevated Co2 Effects On Peatland Ch4 Emissions, Fenghui Yuan, Yihui Wang, Daniel M. Ricciuto, Xiaoying Shi, Fengming Yuan, Paul J. Hanson, Scott Bridgham, Jason Keller, Peter E. Thornton, Xiaofeng Xu

Biology, Chemistry, and Environmental Sciences Faculty Articles and Research

Peatlands are one of the largest natural sources for atmospheric methane (CH4), a potent greenhouse gas. Climate warming and elevated atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) are two important environmental factors that have been confirmed to stimulate peatland CH4 emissions; however, the mechanisms underlying enhanced emissions remain elusive. A data-model integration approach was applied to understand the CH4 processes in a northern temperate peatland under a gradient of warming and doubled atmospheric CO2 concentration. We found that warming and elevated CO2 stimulated CH4 emissions through different mechanisms. Warming initially stimulated but then suppressed …

The Land Question And Development, Artchil B. Fernandez Jul 2021

The Land Question And Development, Artchil B. Fernandez

Social Sciences and Development Review

There are growing concerns that the social justice provision of the Philippine Constitution where agrarian reform is embedded will be abandoned by future governments intent on market solutions to poverty and late development. This paper disagrees and argues for the need to extend the land reform program in the light of the current issues faced by the country. It contends that agrarian reform is a crucial ingredient to address the late development status of the Philippines. The paper makes it case by first tackling the role of agriculture in development. It next discusses the pathways to economic development with land …


Rosas: Kulay At Kilusan (Pink: Color And Movement), Mark Joseph P. Santos Jul 2021

Rosas: Kulay At Kilusan (Pink: Color And Movement), Mark Joseph P. Santos

Social Sciences and Development Review

The history of pink as a color is complex. Different groups — such as feminists, breast cancer patients, the LGBTQ+ community, and socialists — have given various interpretations of it before it finally entered the Philippines. In the context of the 2022 presidential election, pink transformed into a movement centered on the candidacy of Leni Robredo. This movement can be labeled the “Color Pink Movement.” Aside from historicizing the politics of the color pink in both global and national contexts, this essay aims to describe the Color Pink Movement by applying the concept of maganda (beauty), which was first comprehensively …


Simulation Of Light Propagation Captured By Photoemission Electron Microscopy (Peem), Nabila Islam Jul 2021

Simulation Of Light Propagation Captured By Photoemission Electron Microscopy (Peem), Nabila Islam

Dissertations and Theses

The Photoemission electron microscopes (PEEM) is a powerful tool capable of synchronously imaging wave nature of light manifested by interference patterns as well as its particle nature through the energy exchange between the incident photons and the photoemitted imaging electrons. PEEM offers a non-invasive high-resolution approach for studying light propagation and interaction phenomena within a nanophotonic waveguide [7,8]. The electric field intensity variation of the interference pattern yielded by the interaction between the incident light and the guided mode coupled into the waveguide produces varying photoemission yields creating contrast in PEEM image.

Structural Vibration Control Of Offshore Wind Turbines, Vahid Jahangiri Jul 2021

Structural Vibration Control Of Offshore Wind Turbines, Vahid Jahangiri

LSU Doctoral Dissertations

Offshore wind turbines (OWTs) are becoming more attractive than their onshore counterparts due to advantages such as high wind speed, less visual impact and less noise constraints in the marine area. However, the combined wind, wave and seismic loading and other environmental effects render the offshore wind turbines suffering from excessive vibration which adversely influences the system performance and structural integrity. In this regard, the present dissertation aims to develop effective structural control techniques to mitigate three-dimensional structural vibrations of offshore wind turbines. Analytical models of a fixed-bottom and floating offshore wind turbine are established using Euler-Lagrangian equation wherein the …

Normalized Difference Vegetative Index-Related Assessment For Climate Change Impact On Indigenous Communities From High Resolution Ikonos Satellite Imagery In West Papua, C Lavers, T Mason, J Mazower

School of Engineering, Computing and Mathematics

High-resolution satellite imagery permits acquisition of critical data to observe climate-change and environmental impact on conflict-impacted indigenous communities with co-existing socio-economic factors, often within unstable regimes. Conflict may prevent direct access in remote regions to validate civilian conflict actor evidence. In such cases use of remote sensing tools, techniques, and data are extremely important. Software-based imagery assessment can quantify radiometrically calibrated or Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) and provide temporal changes with rapid detection over large search areas. In this work we evaluate recent trends in equatorial alpine glacier ablation to address the probability of indigenous water scarcity, as pure …

Performance Evaluation Of Gas Lift Valves Using Numerical Simulation, Felipe Simoes Maciel Jul 2021

Performance Evaluation Of Gas Lift Valves Using Numerical Simulation, Felipe Simoes Maciel

LSU Master's Theses

This work aimed to assess the performance of two numerical simulation methods to replicate flow capacity test (FCT) results and predict the flow coefficient (Cv) and critical pressure ratio (Rcp) of gas lift valves (GLVs). FCT's use a modified GLV with an adjustable stem positioning system to obtain pressure as a function of flow rate for different stem positions to calculate Cv and Rcp. Therefore, this study used both a one-dimensional (1D) mechanistic model and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to predict the same variable from the FCT without tests using modified GLVs. This methodology demonstrates accurate results, which were compared …
