Scd dvt prophylaxis9/12/2023 ![]() This review evaluates the appropriateness of different NOAC agents compared with current therapies for the extended-duration VTE prophylaxis setting in medically ill populations. Betrixaban remains the only NOAC approved in the USA for extended-duration VTE prophylaxis, and it demonstrates efficacy, with fewer adverse effects than other NOACs. Rivaroxaban has demonstrated efficacy in extended-duration prophylaxis, but both rivaroxaban and apixaban have shown increased risks of major bleeding. Enoxaparin, a preferred injectable anticoagulant in standard-duration VTE prophylaxis, has shown an increased risk of major bleeding events when used in extended-duration prophylaxis, which outweighs its benefit. They work by inflating and deflating this action imitates walking and helps prevent blood clots. Sixty-seven (0.22) patients had VTE, with DVT in 55 cases and PE in 12 cases. An SCD is a compression sleeve that is worn on your legs. ![]() ![]() ![]() Non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants (NOACs) provide Factor Xa inhibition to prevent the thrombin generation essential in thromboembolism development, but evidence for the efficacy and safety of most NOACs is conflicting regarding extended-duration prophylaxis. SCDs are preferred over compression stockings due to demonstrated superiority in preventing VTEs. Dennis found that using a thigh-length SCD was associated with a one-third reduction in the risk of proximal DVT and a 14 increase in survival within six months. While substantial evidence supports the use of standard-duration injectable anticoagulants for venous thromboembolism (VTE) prophylaxis, consensus is mixed about which agents may be preferred in acutely ill patients with ongoing need of VTE prophylaxis past the first 10-day duration of hospital stay and post-discharge. This topic discusses our approach to the use of anticoagulation in an individual with thrombocytopenia, including decisions about the need for anticoagulation, anticoagulant dosing, therapies to raise the platelet count, and alternatives to anticoagulation if the bleeding risk is thought to be too high. Another meta-analysis (Ho and Tan, 2014), reviewed 70 trials with a total of 16,164 patients.3 This analysis concluded that intermittent pneumatic compression devices were effective in reducing the incidence of DVT, and combining this with pharmacological prophylaxis was more effective than mechanical devices alone. ![]()

I witnessed a car window explode from a muzzle device blast even though the car was a safe distance from the firing line.Įarly Vietnam era flash hiders were three prong. There are some muzzle devices that are absolutely punishing, as the blast and concussion are redirected to people and things not intended to withstand such a concussion. ![]() Here's one of many videos showing the effects of different muzzle devices.Īnd as I always say, there's no free ride. There are some combination flash hiders and muzzle brakes that do both. Some flash hiders calm the blast and recoil impulse a little, and some muzzle brakes calm the flash a little. Muzzle brakes can be very effective at reducing recoil. There are some after market flash hiders that are far more effective.Īnd muzzle brakes, they minutely change the timing of the muzzle blast, so instead of one big blast thru the muzzle, they brake up the blast to allow the blast to escape in different directions simultaneously, and/or they change the timing of the blast so it doesn't all happen at once. They may change the flash pattern, but again, very ineffectively. The standard flash hiders do a very poor job of diminishing a flash. At night time in full auto, the flash can completely obscure the target. I've shot many rounds in dark or low-light conditions. ![]() Top 50 most valuable coins9/12/2023 ![]() This forms part of a series depicting the UK’s four capital cities. When it comes to the highest-value £1 coins, some of the most scarce include the 2011 Edinburgh City £1, with only 935,000 in circulation. Other rare 50p coins include the 2011 Olympic series (such as Olympics football, wrestling and judo), as well as the highly collectable Peter Rabbit 2018 coins. Ms Morgan said: “At the peak of the hype surrounding its value, some coins were exchanging hands for hundreds of pounds.” It hit the headlines in 2014 when it was revealed as the most scarce 50p in circulation. It was released in 2009 to celebrate the 250 th anniversary of London’s gardens, but only 210,000 pieces were ever issued. One of the rarest is the Kew Gardens 50p. Over the years, the 50p has grown to become Britain’s most collectable coin. But note that while errors can bump up the rarity value of a coin, they are typically worth more if they are in mint condition.” What are the rarest 50p coins? ![]() These include “strike errors” (such as the design being off-centre), “planchet errors”, (such as the wrong size blank metal disc), as well as “die errors” (resulting in coins with differences on their surfaces, such as how dates were punched).Ĭonsumer expert, Martyn James, said: “There’s huge demand for faulty coins on the secondary market. Rebecca Morgan, director of collector services at The Royal Mint, said: “If you’re looking to sell a coin on the secondary market and it has an unusually low mintage, it might sell for higher than its face value.”Įrrors can also make a coin more valuable.Ĭoins can get marked by a number of different production faults when they are minted. Some of the rarest coins are those with low mintage numbers or errors. ![]() ![]() Irrespective of whether you’re an avid collector or simply wondering if the shrapnel in your wallet might be worth something, here’s some of the key things you need to know. If you’re not lucky enough to count any of the much sought-after Olympic coins among your haul, there’s still a chance you could make a few hundred pounds just from selling loose change. Kate Morgan, from Change Checker, said: “People have long loved collecting coins, but popularity sky-rocketed in 2011 with the 29-coin Olympic series was issued.” If you want to find out if you’re sitting on a pile which could make you a mint, the ‘Scarcity Index’ from Change Checker, is a useful resource which reveals Britain’s most sought after circulation coins. ![]() Ice age meltdown food song9/12/2023 ![]() ![]() ![]() I also really like the upgraded stakes in this movie with the looming threat of this flood and this boat at the end of the valley being the characters' one beacon of hope (ala Noah's Ark), as it made the journey more urgent, engaging and added a bit of suspense to the conflict as the main characters are on a deadline to safety and the threat of the melting ice and large flood is more disastrous and a danger to everyone alongside our main cast. In addition, this sequel also has a very emotional moment regarding Ellie's flashback as a young orphaned mammoth lost and taken in by the possums which leads to her figuring out her true self, which while not as emotionally powerful as the cave painting flashback from the first film, was still a very emotional stand out moment. I also really love the expansion of Manny's character arc from the first film and his existential dilemma of being the last mammoth of his kind, paired with the new addition of Ellie, voiced perfectly by Queen Latifah, who nicely counteracts Manny and the two share some very good chemistry in how they start off very different in personality and her delusion of being a possum make for some cute interactions up to the final moments of the movie where they grow closer (despite some hurdles, miscommunication and disagreements) and become a family by the end, which I felt was a wholesome and natural direction to take Manny's arc from the first film regarding the loss of his former family and Ellie filling that void in his soul, which I greatly appreciate most about this sequel. The one big positive I can certainly give this sequel is how much better it looks compared to the first film, which was still good animation for the time but is very much dated and hasn't aged the best nowadays, but this sequel pretty much had a much bigger budget and as such, there was a huge upgrade in the visuals and the characters and animation improved greatly with the textures and lighting, which certainly gives the visuals a leg up over the first film and still holds up pretty well in my opinion. And here we are to be reviewing the first of the sequels and the second film overall, so does Ice Age: The Meltdown still hold up as a worthy successor to the original or is it just a basic mediocre cash grab sequel and its just the nostalgia clouding my view of it? Now Ice Age has always been one of those franchises that I have a soft spot for and is one of those animated film franchises that doesn't get enough credit and is kind of one that half the majority tends to shit on due to the negative clout regarding the sequels, some of which are understandable but I have always liked a few of them and think that not all of them are bad and there actually do exist some good sequels in this franchise, namely the first two. Here we are once again with the second entry of my Ice Age review series with the first sequel, Ice Age: The Meltdown.

Dual battery diode isolator9/11/2023 ![]() Thus, in most of the scenarios, Relay-based Isolator is the preferred choice for Dual Battery Applications involving battery banks of at least one Main Battery and one Auxiliary Battery. However, if the drain on the charging system by the auxiliary or main battery bank reduces the system voltage below a certain point, it will disconnect the battery banks from each other, protecting them from excessive drain. ![]() If the Relay-based Isolator determines that there’s not enough voltage in the primary source to perform an essential function, such as starting an engine, it will open the solenoid and allow current to flow from the auxiliary battery to make up the difference. Nature extracts a price for this by causing a voltage drop of about 0.7 Volts across the. The diodes will pass current from the charging source to the batteries, but will not pass current backward from one battery to the other or back to the charging source. When the engine starter is engaged, the Relay-based Isolator compares the voltage in both main and auxiliary batteries. Battery Isolators are made with two or more silicon diodes that act like check valves. ZERO VOLTAGE DROP: Forget the traditional diode relays and. Note: Unlike the solenoid version of our battery isolators the voltage from the auxiliary battery can feed back to the vehicle through the body diode of the MOSFET switches. Relay-based Isolator is best seen as switch that can direct current, enabling primary and auxiliary bank of batteries to be charged from a single source, using a solenoid. With the KeyLine Battery Isolator, you now have a fully charged backup battery present at all times. Fifth, no external diodes or current sense resistors are needed, the unit is a self-contained solid-state dual battery isolation relay. The higher the current, the bigger the voltage drop and the lower the efficiency of charging the dual battery. A Relay-based Isolator have no apparent voltage drop while for Diode-based Isolator there will be minimally 0.7V – 1.5V drop across the diode depending on the amount of current pass through. ![]() Best free pdf filler app9/11/2023 ![]() ![]() If you experience all the above Form Filler & Creator, you will find that PDF Reader Pro is a good choice that you won't regret.

As mentioned above, unlike most other kitties, American Shorthair cats often bond with more than just one of their favorite humans, yet are rarely needy. They bond with all family members, but are not known to be clingy. Silver tabbies tend to be one of the favorite American Shorthair coat patterns, followed by the brown tabby. It is very important to carefully monitor their food dosage and ensure that they get plenty of exercise, as they love to eat and are prone to obesity. The American Shorthair breed commonly exhibits the classic tabby pattern. Some classic tabbies also have blotches of color, giving these cats a secondary nickname of blotched tabby. These days, the American Shorthair is known as a wonderful companion pet! The classic tabby pattern consists of bold swirls that create a target -like pattern on the side of the cat’s body. Along with their natural instincts, their robust, muscular build, exceptional hunting skills, and jaw strength all contributed to successfully taking on this initial "job". Historically, American Shorthairs were prized for their ability to control the rodent populations on ships and farms. They are also prone to inherited craniofacial defects, which can range from mild dermoid cysts to more serious conditions such as cleft palates and crooked jaws (the latter results in the development of misaligned teeth). American Shorthair Common Health IssuesĪlthough the American Shorthair is considered a healthy breed with very few health problems, they can be affected by hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), the most common form of feline heart disease. When not hunting for insects and other small critters, the American Shorthair is often found spending its time lounging in the sun. As a moderately active breed, American Shorthairs are not overly demanding of attention and tend to be good at keeping themselves entertained. Though not typical lap cats, they will certainly appreciate a spot next to you on the sofa. The American Shorthair is the ideal family cat for its social, easygoing, and affectionate nature. These hardy companions received their American Shorthair name in 1966 to differentiate them from regular random-bred, domestic shorthair cats. In 1906, the Cat Fanciers' Association officially recognized the ASH breed, which was at the time called the Domestic Shorthair, as one of its five registered breeds. They were brought onboard to protect the ship's cargo from rodents. The first American Shorthairs were believed to have accompanied European settlers who set their sails for North America. Their eyes are large and distinctive, and range in color from blue and green to copper, hazel, and gold. American Shorthairs have short, dense coats that come in various colors and patterns including gold, brown, cameo, calico, and silver tabby. ![]() These beauties are defined by their large heads, powerful jaws, and full cheeks. ![]() It is a sturdy, powerful, and agile breed that is full of endurance. The American Shorthair (ASH) has all the characteristics of a skilled hunter.
