Flow strategies cover processes in and out of ED

    With changes in place only about six months, Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center, compared the May-July period door-to-doc times and found they had dropped from 61 minutes in 2008 to 45 minutes in 2009. The ED manager interfaces with the hospital's director of patient flow, and they have initiated new processes inside and outside the department: Nurses have been placed at the ED entrance to take a "quick look" at patients. Handoffs are handled via fax, so ED nurses no longer have to track down their inpatient counterparts for a telephone conversation. Mathematical formulas have been created to predict admissions and discharges.

    Flow Sheet

    Flowsheets are valuable tools in nursing documentation. They enable healthcare professionals to efficiently record and monitor various patient assessments and measurements in a consolidated format.
    Here's a closer look at the examples of flowsheets commonly used by nurses:

    Underflow Gates01:30

    Underflow Gates

    Underflow gates are vital for controlling water flow in irrigation canals. The three main types of underflow gates — vertical, radial, and drum gates — serve different purposes while ensuring effective flow management. Vertical gates move up and down, generating a free-flowing water jet; radial gates pivot to regulate the flow; and drum gates rotate for precise adjustments. The flow through these gates is influenced by downstream conditions, resulting in free or drowned outflow.Free and Drowned...
    Capillary Exchange01:28

    Capillary Exchange

    The cardiovascular system's chief role is to disseminate gases, nutrients, waste, and other substances to the body's cells. Small molecules like gases, lipids, and lipid-soluble substances directly diffuse through capillary wall endothelial cell membranes. Glucose, amino acids, and ions, including sodium, potassium, calcium, and chloride, use transporters for facilitated diffusion via membrane-specific channels. Glucose, ions, and bigger molecules may also pass through intercellular clefts.
    Gradually Varying Flow01:29

    Gradually Varying Flow

    Gradually varying flow (GVF) in open channels describes situations where water depth changes slowly along the channel due to factors like non-uniform bed slope, channel shape variations, or obstructions. This flow type occurs when the depth adjusts gradually to balance gravitational forces, shear forces, and energy requirements, resulting in a low rate of depth change.Characteristics of Gradually Varying FlowGVF is commonly observed in natural streams, rivers, and canals, where flow depth...
    Plane Potential Flows01:23

    Plane Potential Flows

    Plane potential flows simplify fluid motion by assuming the fluid to be irrotational and incompressible. These characteristics allow these flows to be described by a velocity potential function, ϕ, representing the flow speed in a given direction, and a stream function, ψ, that visualizes the flow path, both governed by Laplace's equation. These parameters help in estimating flow patterns, velocity distributions, and pressure fields around various hydraulic structures.

    Turbulent Flow01:24

    Turbulent Flow

    Turbulent flow is characterized by unpredictable fluctuations in velocity and pressure, which result in a chaotic fluid movement distinct from the orderly patterns of laminar flow. While laminar flow is governed by smooth, parallel layers with minimal mixing, turbulent flow exhibits highly irregular, three-dimensional patterns. This behavior arises due to instabilities in the fluid's velocity profile, and amplifies as the flow velocity increases. Minor disturbances, known as turbulent spots,...
