Early Delirium Assessment for Hospitalized Older People in Indonesia: a Systematic Review

Background: Due to the increasing risk of getting co-morbidity and frailty, older people tend to be prone to hospitalization. Hospitalization in older people brings many adverse effects. Moreover, when these elderly get delirium, the mortality and morbidity will increase. The risk of getting deterioration and worsening condition because of delirium would also increase. In fact, delirium assessment is not a high priority in taking care older people during hospitalization because the focus of care is treating the disease.Delirium screening as an early recognition of delirium in the hospitalized elderly inIndonesia remains unreported and even do not well evaluated. Therefore, delirium as a preventable problem or causing problems remains unrecognized.Purpose: This paper aims to review the current evidence of early assessment of delirium in hospitalized older people.Methods: A systematic review was conducted from four databases yielding to 4 articles which met the inclusion and exclusion criteria.Results: There are four focuses on the result, namely delirium screening tools, patient characteristics, identified early delirium assessment, and outcomes affected by early delirium assessment. Confusion Assessment Method (CAM) was used as the delirium screening tool in the hospital. Establishing the care team involving many disciplines will give a better way to improve the integrated care and collaborative care.Conclusion: Performing CAM integrated into comprehensive geriatric assessment can be the most important thing to be undertaken when looking after the hospitalized elderly

Tunneling of Dirac particles from accelerating and rotating black holes

Hawking radiation from black holes has been studied as a phenomenon of quantum tunneling of particles through their horizons. We have extended this approach to study the tunneling of Dirac particles from a large class of black holes which includes those with acceleration and rotation as well. We have calculated the tunneling probability of incoming and outgoing particles, and recovered the correct Hawking temperature by this method.Comment: Corrections done, modifications made, references added; to appear in Phys.

Symmetries of the Weyl tensor in Bianchi V spacetimes

Symmetries of geometrical and physical quantities in general relativity provide important information about the curvature structure of the spacetimes. Symmetries of the curvature and the Weyl tensors, known as curvature and Weyl collineations respectively, are two of such important symmetries. Some results on these symmetries for Bianchi type V spacetimes are discussed.Comment: 4 pages; Proc. 11th Marcel Grossmann Meeting on General Relativity, World Scientific, 200

Response-time analysis of DAG tasks supporting heterogeneous computing

Hardware platforms are evolving towards parallel and heterogeneous architectures to overcome the increasing necessity of more performance in the real-time domain. Parallel programming models are fundamental to exploit the performance capabilities of these architectures. This paper proposes a novel response time analysis (RTA) for verifying the schedulability of DAG tasks supporting heterogeneous computing. It analyzes the impact of executing part of the DAG in the accelerator device. As a result, the response time upper bound of the system is more precise than the one provided by currently existing RTA targeting homogeneous architectures.This work is supported by the Spanish Ministry of Science and Innovation under contract TIN2015-65316-PPeer ReviewedPostprint (published version

Sistem Penjadwalan Kuliah Berbasis Click and Drag (Studi Kasus Di Fakultas Sains & Teknologi Universitas Teknologi YOGYAKARTA)

Utilization of technology in education is very important, especially at the University of Technology in Yogyakarta, which is one of the private universities in Yogyakarta with several objectives, one which is utilizing the maximum potential of technology to improve the effectiveness and efficiency of learning and dissemination of science and technology. One factor that can improve academic services are scheduling a lecture. Making a schedule of lectures is not an activity that is easy to do, because in doing scheduling not only arrange the schedule between subjects, time, lecturers and rooms. College scheduling systems currently running is less effective, because it requires a long time, and often clashes at student schedules. In this research, system development, scheduling lectures at the Faculty of Science and Technology, University of Technology Yogyakarta, where the scheduling system, click and drag more easily and to minimize clashes class schedules

Weyl collineations that are not curvature collineations

Though the Weyl tensor is a linear combination of the curvature tensor, Ricci tensor and Ricci scalar, it does not have all and only the Lie symmetries of these tensors since it is possible, in principle, that "asymmetries cancel". Here we investigate if, when and how the symmetries can be different. It is found that we can obtain a metric with a finite dimensional Lie algebra of Weyl symmetries that properly contains the Lie algebra of curvature symmetries. There is no example found for the converse requirement. It is speculated that there may be a fundamental reason for this lack of "duality".Comment: 9 page

Finite Element Thermal Analysis of Conformal Cooling Channels in Injection Moulding

The process cycle time in injection moulding process depends greatly on the cooling time of the plastic part, which is facilitated by the cooling channels in the injection mould. Effective cooling channel design in the mould is important because it not only affects cycle time but also the part quality. Traditional cooling channels are normally made of straight drilled holes in the mould, which have limitations in geometric complexity as well as cooling fluid mobility within the injectio n mould. Over the years, conformal cooling techniques are being introduced as effective alternative to conventional cooling. The main objective of this study is to determine an optimum design for conformal cooling channel of an injection moulded plastic part using finite element analysis and thermal heat transfer analysis. The part cooling time is optimized by conformal cooling channels in the mould using the ANSYS thermal a nalysis software. Analysis of virtual models showed that those with conformal cooling channels predicted a significant reduction of cycle time with expected improvement in part quality
