The document describes a new electromagnetic catheter steering system called AEON PhoCus. It uses 7 electromagnets with no moving parts to steer catheters for cardiac mapping and ablation. Pre-clinical trials in pigs demonstrated the system could fully map all four chambers of the heart and perform stable, continuous ablations with high contact forces. The system also provided benefits like reduced radiation exposure for patients and physicians compared to manual catheter steering.
The document discusses the history and practice of seclusion in psychiatry. It argues that seclusion is an inhumane, degrading, and unnecessary practice that should be eliminated. While some hospitals discontinued seclusion in the 1970s, it remains used in other facilities. Alternatives to seclusion have been developed that involve continuous staff presence and are more therapeutic and humane. However, guidelines and definitions of seclusion have allowed the practice to continue despite failures found in a commission survey. The document calls for objective evaluation of alternatives and removal of seclusion.

Development of Guiding Cane with Voice Notification for Visually Impaired ind...IJECEIAES
Navigation in the physical environment is a challenge for those people who have very limited sense of sight or no vision at all. Assistive technologies for blind mobilization is not new and always have a room for improvement. Moreover, these assistive devices are limited in terms of its sensing and feedback abilities. This paper presents a microcontroller-based guiding stick capable of detecting several conditions of the environment such as obstacles in front, left and right positions of the user and detects ascending and descending staircases. The feedback is delivered by an audio output which dictates the direction to go or what condition the sensor detects in front of the user. Technical evaluation proves that the device was functional in terms of its accuracy, responsiveness and correctness. On the other hand, in the actual evaluation of the device with the visually impaired individuals, the device did not perform efficiently. It was also found that the device has the potential to be used effectively by the visually impaired who acquired their blindness in later stage of their life provided that they will have a proper training in using the device while navigating in the physical environment.

Fence Standards
Chain-Link Fence
Manufacturers Institute
Recommendations
Chain-link fencing has been the product of choice for security fencing for over 60 years because of its
strength, corrosion resistance, “see-through capabilities,” ease of installation, versatility, variety of
product selection, and value. A chain-link fence is one of the primary building blocks for a facility’s
perimeter security system.
The physical security barrier provided by a chain-link fence provides one or more of the following
functions:
• Gives notice of a legal boundary of the outermost limits of a facility.
• Assists in controlling and screening authorized entries into a secured area by deterring entry
elsewhere along the boundary.
• Supports surveillance, detection, assessment, and other security functions by providing a zone for
installing intrusion detection equipment and closed-circuit television (CCTV).
• Deters casual intruders from penetrating a secured area by presenting a barrier that requires an overt
action to enter.
• Demonstrates the intent of an intruder by their overt action of gaining entry.
• Causes a delay to obtain access to a facility, increasing the possibility of detection.
• Creates a psychological deterrent.
• Reduces the number of security guards required and frequency of use for each post.
• Optimizes the use of security personnel while enhancing the capabilities for detection and
apprehension of unauthorized individuals.
• Demonstrates a corporate concern for facility security.
• Provides a cost-effective method of protecting facilities.
Security Planning
Chain-link fence enhances the goals of good security planning. In-depth security planning takes into
consideration the mission and function, environmental concerns, threats, and the local area of the
facility to be secured. This can be translated into an A-B-C-D method that points out the values of
chain-link fencing to a security program.

The NICCOMO is a non-invasive neonatal cardiac monitor that uses impedance cardiography to provide comprehensive cardiac monitoring without the need for invasive procedures. Impedance cardiography uses ECG data and algorithms to simulate cardiac monitoring parameters. Compared to standard monitoring in neonatal intensive care units of just heart rate and oxygen saturation, the NICCOMO provides a wealth of continuous patient information. It can help monitor preterm infants with congenital heart defects by providing immediate feedback on the effects of medication or surgery. Invasive cardiac monitoring poses risks for neonates due to their small blood volume and body weight, so the non-invasive NICCOMO addresses this issue for neonatal intensive care.

The Ultraseal LAA Device is a soft, conforming device for permanent occlusion of the left atrial appendage (LAA). It utilizes articulating technology to limit pressure on tissue and can be retrieved and redeployed multiple times in the original delivery sheath without needing a new sheath. The Ultraseal comes in 9 sizes based on the diameter of the LAA distal bulb and has a simple loading process along with an articulation between the bulb and sail that allows it to conform to various LAA anatomies.
