There is a historic parallel for the current limited success of business process advancement. The first wide-scale introductions of IT in the business place focused on the improvement of isolated parts of business operations, for example the generation of invoices. Productivity increased locally, but generally the overall effect was small. Only during the 80s and 90s, companies started to see the benefits of considering entire business processes when implementing information systems, and as a result, huge gains were achieved.
Today, it seems, companies are at the start of this same loop again. Once again, the view on the entire process is missing, which prevents the new technology to become truly effective.

The mechanism uses a rack and pinion arrangement powered by DC servo motors interfaced with an Arduino board for automated operation. It consists of a food tray, base frame, racks and pinions, servomotors, spoon, and IR sensor. The racks and pinions provide vertical and horizontal motion to lift food from the tray and guide it to the mouth, detected by the IR sensor. The mechanism aims to reduce costs compared to other designs while maintaining simplicity and user-friendliness to achieve independent living for handicapped persons.
These slides use concepts from my (Jeff Funk) course entitled analyzing hi-tech opportunities to analyze whether and how 4D Printing is becoming economically feasible. 4D printing is defined as 3D printing of smart materials whose shape and properties change with the addition of heat or electrical energy. The presentation describes a number of these smart materials, the specific stimuli that lead to changes in shaper or properties, and application examples. Examples include self-healing polymers for smart phones, other materials for space structures, alloys for heat engines, and dielectric elastomers for artificial muscles.
4D printing uses smart materials that can change shape or properties when exposed to stimuli like heat or electricity. This allows 3D printed objects to transform over time. The document discusses smart materials like shape memory alloys that bend when heated and dielectric elastomers that expand when voltage is applied. It also covers simulation software, multi-material 3D printers, and potential applications of 4D printing in fields like healthcare, consumer products, manufacturing and robotics.
This document summarizes the design and fabrication of a soft robotic gripper for handling fragile objects. It discusses how soft robotics uses highly flexible materials like fluids, gels, and elastomers matching biological properties. The gripper is intended for use in online grocery warehouses to safely handle irregularly shaped and vulnerable inventory. Its design includes flexible silicone fingers that are pneumatically actuated to adapt to objects. CAD models and 3D printed molds were created for the finger fabrication. Testing showed the gripper could grasp objects up to 15cm and 8kg. The summary provides an overview of the key goals, design approach, and intended application of the soft robotic gripper discussed in the document.
Scientists are increasingly looking to biology for inspiration in developing new robots (biomimetics). Studying animal locomotion through high-speed cameras has allowed researchers to replicate animal movements like a snake's sidewinding and create robots that can climb sandy hills. A team created Pleurobot modeled after a newt to study vertebrate movement, and an octopus-inspired robot that fills with water and expels it for unprecedented underwater speed. Biomimetics holds promise for developing robots that can access difficult environments.

ABDOMINAL TRAUMA in pediatrics part one.drhasanrajab
Abdominal trauma in pediatrics refers to injuries or damage to the abdominal organs in children. It can occur due to various causes such as falls, motor vehicle accidents, sports-related injuries, and physical abuse. Children are more vulnerable to abdominal trauma due to their unique anatomical and physiological characteristics. Signs and symptoms include abdominal pain, tenderness, distension, vomiting, and signs of shock. Diagnosis involves physical examination, imaging studies, and laboratory tests. Management depends on the severity and may involve conservative treatment or surgical intervention. Prevention is crucial in reducing the incidence of abdominal trauma in children.
Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.
