Predictors of Return to Driving After Stroke [PDF]

American Journal of Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation, 2013
Although returning to driving is a major concern for many survivors of stroke, predicting who will return to driving after a stroke is often difficult for rehabilitation professionals. The primary aim of this study was to identify patient factors present at admission to an inpatient rehabilitation hospital that can be used to identify which patients ...

Modified Transmission Line Model with a Current Attenuation Function Derived from the Lightning Radiation Field—MTLD Model

Atmosphere, 2021
In return strokes, the parameters that can be measured are the channel base current and the return stroke speed. For this reason, many return stroke models have been developed with these two parameters, among others, as inputs.

Temporal analysis on pulse train of lightning discharge observed in Malacca, Malaysia

Energy Reports, 2023
A few significant studies discovered that a pulse train tends to initiate subsequent return stroke in the same way that a preliminary breakdown pulse activates the first return stroke.

Return to Work Among Stroke Survivors [PDF]

Workplace Health & Safety, 2019
Despite improvements in the treatment of stroke, many individuals still face cognitive, emotional, and physical impairments. Stroke is a leading cause of serious long-term disability and subsequent failure to return to work (RTW). The purpose of this literature review was to synthesize and discuss the literature relevant to factors affecting RTW for ...

Comparative analysis of cloud-ground flash data of two lightning location networks in Hubei Province

暴雨灾害, 2021
Based on location mode, current intensity and clustering standard, quality control is carried on the lightning stroke data of ADTD two dimensional lightning location network (2D-LLN) and VLF/LF three dimensional lightning location network (3D-LLN) in ...

A Self-Consistent Return Stroke Model That Includes the Effect of the Ground Conductivity at the Strike Point

Atmosphere, 2022
A current generation type return stroke model which can take into account the possible modifications of the return stroke properties by the soil conductivity at the strike point of the lightning flash is introduced.

Ground Potential Rise and Transient Response of the Grounding Grid Based on the Triggered Lightning

应用气象学报, 2020
It is extremely dangerous of ground grid potentials which significantly rise when the lightning currents are flowing through the grid. A statistical analysis on 39 return-strokes, 10 M-components and the ground potential rise (GPR) caused by them based ...

The centrality of work in everyday life after stroke: A qualitative study of long-term stroke survivors

Scandinavian Journal of Occupational Therapy, 2023
Background Work is an occupation of great concern for younger stroke survivors. Given the high rate of people not working after stroke, there is a need to explore work after stroke from a long-term perspective, including not just an initial return to ...

Characterization of Preliminary Breakdown Pulse Trains in Negative Cloud-To-Ground Flashes Recorded during A Rainy Season in The Bogota Savannah, Colombia

TecnoLógicas, 2022
Lightning-generated electric field measurement is used to characterize cloud-to-ground (CG) flashes. Prior to the first return stroke (FRS), these signals sometimes exhibit a pulse train, known as preliminary breakdown pulses (PBP), whose study provides ...
