Effect of a surgical sponge counting stand on counting discrepancies, time efficiency, and operating room staff satisfaction: A quality improvement study [PDF]
Nursing and Midwifery StudiesBackground: Retained surgical items (RSIs), particularly surgical sponges, represent a significant and preventable error in surgical practice, leading to severe patient complications and legal repercussions for healthcare providers.

Network Reliability Modeling Based on a Geometric Counting Process
Mathematics, 2018 In this paper, we investigate the reliability and stochastic properties of an n-component network under the assumption that the components of the network fail according to a counting process called a geometric counting process (GCP).

Dynamic Analysis of a Unified Multivariate Counting Process and Its Asymptotic Behavior
International Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 2009 The class of counting processes constitutes a significant part of applied probability. The classic counting processes include Poisson processes, nonhomogeneous Poisson processes, and renewal processes.

A Counting Process Approach for Trend Assessment of Drought Condition
Hydrology, 2019 This paper discusses some methodological aspects of the historical analysis of drought, particularly the trend assessment. The Standardized Evapotranspiration Index (SPEI) is widely used as a measure of drought condition.

Different Strategies for Counting the Depth of Coverage in Copy Number Variation Calling Tools
Bioinformatics and Biology Insights, 2022 There are many copy number variation (CNV) detection tools based on the depth of coverage. A characteristic feature of all tools based on the depth of coverage is the first stage of data processing—counting the depth of coverage in the investigated ...

A New Overdispersed Integer-Valued Moving Average Model with Dependent Counting Series
Entropy, 2021 A new integer-valued moving average model is introduced. The assumption of independent counting series in the model is relaxed to allow dependence between them, leading to the overdispersion in the model.

On the Fractional Poisson Process and the Discretized Stable Subordinator
Axioms, 2015 We consider the renewal counting number process N = N(t) as a forward march over the non-negative integers with independent identically distributed waiting times.

New Journal of Physics, 2022 We apply tensor networks to counting statistics for the stochastic particle transport in an out-of-equilibrium diffusive system. This system is composed of a one-dimensional channel in contact with two particle reservoirs at the ends.

On a Bivariate Poisson Negative Binomial Risk Process
Biomath, 2014 In this paper we define a bivariate counting process as a compound Poisson process with bivariate negative binomial compounding distribution. We investigate some of its basic properties, recursion formulas and probability mass function.

Reverse Poisson Counting Process with Random Observations
MathematicsThis paper introduces the Reverse Poisson Counting Process (RPCP), a stochastic model derived from the Poisson counting process with limited and random capacity, characterized by counting backward from a defined maximum level.
