Minimal cosmetic revision required after minimally invasive pectus repair
Pediatric Surgery International, 2018Despite surgical correction procedures for pectus deformities, remaining cosmetic asymmetry may have significant psychological effects. We sought to evaluate factors associated with plastic surgery (PS) consultation and procedures for these deformities at an academic institution.We reviewed patients aged 0-21 diagnosed with a pectus excavatum or ...

Optimal Policy for Minimal Repair
Journal of the Operational Research Society, 1983The problem of replacement under minimal repair is considered. It is shown that a particular form of control limit policy is optimal in the space of all possible policies. This generalises a previous result.

Minimal repair in heterogeneous populations
Journal of Applied Probability, 2004The notion of minimal repair is generalized to the case when the lifetime distribution function is a continuous or a discrete mixture of distributions (heterogeneous population). The statistical (black box) minimal repair and the minimal repair based on information just before the failure of an object are considered.

2011
In this chapter, we consider systems that, once the failure has occurred and the repair has been completed, exhibit identical conditions to that just before the failure. In this case, minimal repair maintenance actions are being carried out in the system environment.

Minimally Invasive Repair of Meta-bones
Veterinary Clinics of North America: Small Animal Practice, 2012Metacarpal and metatarsal fractures are common injuries in small animals and, in most of the cases, can be treated by minimally invasive techniques. Bone plates applied through epi-periosteal tunnels can stabilize meta-bones. Meta-bones III and IV are stabilized by dorsally applied plates.

Pitfalls of Minimally Invasive Fracture Repair
Veterinary Clinics of North America: Small Animal Practice, 2020Minimally invasive fracture repair (MIFR) is the ultimate culmination of current osteosynthesis concepts that emphasize the preservation and enhancement of the biologic components of fracture healing. Although the "less is more" approach to tissue dissection and fracture exposure and handling that defines MIFR has numerous reported advantages over more

On Predicting Repair Times in a Minimal Repair Process
Communications in Statistics - Simulation and Computation, 1989A minimal repair process is the nonhomogeneous Poisson process generated by the successive repairs of an equipment in which, upon each failure, the equipment is instantaneously restored to its condition immediately prior to failure. Point predictors of a future minimal repair epoch are developed and compared, on the basis of ‘pointwise’ as well as ...

Minimally Invasive Repair of Sacroiliac Luxation
Veterinary Clinics of North America: Small Animal Practice, 2020Sacroiliac fracture-luxation is a common injury that is associated with ilial and acetabular fractures of the opposite hemipelvis. Sacroiliac fracture-luxation results in an unstable pelvis and potentially collapse of the pelvic canal. A minimally invasive approach to the reduction and insertion of a screw for fixation of sacroiliac fracture-luxation ...

On Repair Age Residual Repair Life in the Minimal Repair Process
Probability in the Engineering and Informational Sciences, 1989Some properties of repair age (the elapsed time since the last repair) and the residual repair life (the time until the next repair) are studied for the minimal repair process under various assumptions on the aging characteristics of the equipment under maintenance. Bounds on expected repair age and expected residual repair life are obtained.

Computing Card-minimal Repairs
2011In this chapter, we present a technique for computing card-minimal repairs in the presence of steady aggregate constraints. Thus, differently from the (decision) problems introduced in Chapter 3, we here address a search problem, which is relevant in practice as, in several applications, the availability of a consistent version of the data is mandatory
