Abstract

Robotic- assisted surgery has revolutionized the surgical practice since its inception and allows surgeons to use minimally invasive techniques in cardiac, urology, and general surgeries. Robotic surgery is quickly becoming an alternative to standard laparoscopic approaches to surgery and especially in the area of urology. Even though the use of robotic- assisted surgery is more advantageous than conventional methods, its use is hinged on the surgical teams training and experiences with it. The study examines the frequency of use of the technique among various surgical teams and their response to its effectiveness. The research design of the study begins ...

Introduction Almost all countries nowadays comply with one of two main legal systems-- civil law or common law. The civil law system originated from continental Europe and was implemented by European colonizers, like Portugal and Spain, in their respective colonies. On the other hand, the common law system was developed in Great Britain and was implemented in the British colonies. In the 19th and 20th centuries, civil law was accepted and enforced by countries previously implementing unique legal systems, like Japan and Russia, which aimed at reforming their legal ...

The innovations that the Hill Physicians Medical Group (HPMG) employees can be replicated in 2014 and beyond. The purpose of HPMG’s innovation agenda is to improve and transform healthcare delivery through an affiliated, but not fully integrated healthcare group. The innovations that HPMG employed in 2009 can be replicated in 2014 because of some reasons. First, the technology still exists in 2014 in the same, if not improved, status. For example, HPMG uses health information technology approaches to maintain electronic medical records and integrate them into the daily medical practice of the physicians (Emswiler & Nichols, 2009). The physicians ...

Medical area is being improved with the technological advances under which robotic-assisted surgeries have been increasing in their numbers on the global scale. Based on the Bertram et al. (1637) in the last decades a minimal invasive revolution has been seen also in the area of urology, but the access and the acceptance of robotic-assisted surgery is variable across the geographical locations. There is still a lack of documentation in the area of the robotic-assisted surgeries, but it is becoming increasingly prevalent. The use of technology, availability and perception differs across countries as well as geographical locations and hospitals ( ...

Uxmal is an ancient town, located on the Yucatan peninsula. Maya found this town in 700 A.D. It is a great example of the Puuc architecture and a UNESCO world heritage site since 1996 (UNESCO, 2016). The one of the peculiar features of Uxmal is its layout. It is organized in relation to astronomical events rather than simple geometry. According to Peabody Museum of Archaeology and Ethnology, first written account of Uxmal was given by Padre Alonso Ponce in 1588 (Graham, 1992, vol. 4.2). There is plenty of information available on internet, even though it is somewhat academic in ...

This paper reflects on three papers which report the results of researches and experiments conducted, to study the effect of media on language acquisition and language development of children under the age of three years. The papers report observational studies and experiments done in the U.S. and Thailand, and assessment was done based on the Communicative Development Inventory (CDI) scores, various Peabody Individual Achievement Tests for reading and comprehension, Memory for Digit Span assessment, and Denver – II developmental assessment. All the three papers conclude with similar findings that there is a negative association between intense TV viewing by children of ...
