Prevention of posttraumatic stress during inpatient rehabilitation post spinal cord injury: Study protocol for a randomized controlled trial of Brief Prolonged Exposure Therapy (Brief PE)

Contemporary Clinical Trials Communications, 2022
Background: Scant research has focused on posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in the SCI population, despite high prevalence estimates. Fortunately, prolonged exposure therapy (PE) is a well-researched and highly effective treatment for PTSD. Our recent

Comparison of Advanced Control Strategies Applied to a Multiple-Degrees-of-Freedom Wave Energy Converter: Nonlinear Model Predictive Controller versus Reinforcement Learning

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
Achieving energy maximizing control of a Wave Energy Converter (WEC) not only needs a comprehensive dynamic model of the system—including nonlinear hydrodynamic effects and nonlinear characteristics of Power Take-Off (PTO)—but to treat the entire system ...

Evaluation of an Antimicrobial Stewardship Program for Wound and Burn Care in Three Hospitals in Nepal

Antibiotics, 2020
Antimicrobial stewardship (AMS) programs can decrease non-optimal use of antibiotics in hospital settings. There are limited data on AMS programs in burn and chronic wound centers in low- and middle-income countries (LMIC). A post-prescription review and
