Extracting Daily Dosage from Medication Instructions in EHRs: An Automated Approach and Lessons Learned [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 Medication timelines have been shown to be effective in helping physicians visualize complex patient medication information. A key feature in many such designs is a longitudinal representation of a medication's daily dosage and its changes over time. However, daily dosage as a discrete value is generally not provided and needs to be derived from free ...

Reliable Off-Policy Learning for Dosage Combinations [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Decision-making in personalized medicine such as cancer therapy or critical care must often make choices for dosage combinations, i.e., multiple continuous treatments. Existing work for this task has modeled the effect of multiple treatments independently, while estimating the joint effect has received little attention but comes with non-trivial ...

Personal Ultraviolet Respiratory Germ Eliminating Machine (PUR$\diamond$GEM) for COVID-19 [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 The current COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the need for cheap reusable personal protective equipment. The disinfection properties of Ultraviolet (UV) radiation in the 200-300 nm have been long known and documented. Many solutions using UV radiation, such as cavity disinfection and whole room decontamination between uses, are in use in various ...

Simulation Study of the Beam Calorimeter in the GLD Configuration for the Next Generation Linear Collider [PDF]
arXiv, 2008 The beam calorimeter, located in the very forward and backward region of the next generation electron-positron linear accelerator, will be an important apparatus to search for or identify new particles beyond Standard Model. One of its key design issues is to estimate the radiation dosage due to beam related backgrounds. We used the geant-based package,

Predictors of radiation exposure to providers during percutaneous nephrolithotomy
Urology Annals, 2017 Background: Limited studies have reported on radiation risks of increased ionizing radiation exposure to medical personnel in the urologic community. Fluoroscopy is readily used in many urologic surgical procedures. The aim of this study was to determine
