Continuing Care01:25

Continuing Care

1.9K
Continuing care describes the variety of health, personal, and social services provided over a prolonged period. The need for continuing care is increasing because people are living longer. Many people do not have families or others to care for them. Continuing care is mainly for patients who are disabled, functionally dependent, or suffering from a terminal disease. It is available within institutional settings or in homes. Examples include nursing centers or facilities, assisted living,...

Continuity Equation01:28

Continuity Equation

3.3K
The continuity equation asserts that the mass flow rate must remain constant for a steady flow of an incompressible fluid within a confined system. This principle applies to systems where fluid passes through varying cross-sectional areas, such as nozzles, syringes, and pipes.
The mass flow rate is expressed as:
3.3K
Continuity Equation01:20

Continuity Equation

1.5K
The total amount of current flowing per unit cross-sectional area is called the current density. Hence, the current passing through a cross-sectional area can be written as the surface integral of the current density.

Equation of Continuity01:12

Equation of Continuity

10.5K
Fluid motion is represented by either velocity vectors or streamlines. The volume of a fluid flowing past a given location through an area during a period of time is called the flow rate Q, or more precisely, the volume flow rate. Flow rate and velocity are related—for instance, a river has a greater flow rate if the velocity of the water in it is greater. However, the flow rate also depends on the size and shape of the river. The relationship between flow rate (Q) and average speed (v)...

Continuous Charge Distributions01:17

Continuous Charge Distributions

8.0K
Imagine a bucket of water. It contains many molecules, of the order of 1026 molecules. Thus, although it contains discrete elements (molecules) at the microscopic level, macroscopically, it can be considered continuous. Small volume elements of water, infinitesimal compared to the bulk of the bucket's volume, still contain many molecules. Under this framework, quantized matter is approximated as continuous for practical purposes.
The electric charge can also be subjected to an analogical...

Continuous -time Fourier Transform01:11

Continuous -time Fourier Transform

856
The Fourier series is instrumental in representing periodic functions, offering a powerful method to decompose such functions into a sum of sinusoids. This technique, however, necessitates modification when applied to nonperiodic functions. Consider a pulse-train waveform consisting of a series of rectangular pulses. When these pulses have a finite period, they can be accurately represented by a Fourier series. Yet, as the period approaches infinity, resulting in a single, isolated pulse, the...

Area of Science:

  • Internal Medicine
  • Medical Specialties
  • Acute Care

Background:

  • Specialist physicians significantly contribute to hospital acute medical admissions.
  • There is ongoing discussion regarding the necessity of acute physicians to replace this role.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To discuss the benefits of specialist physicians continuing to provide general internal medicine care.
  • To advocate for the retention of this essential component of medical practice.

Main Methods:

  • Review of the current role of specialist physicians in acute medical takes.
  • Discussion of the advantages and disadvantages of specialist physician involvement in general internal medicine.

Main Results:

  • Continuing specialist physician participation in acute medical care offers significant benefits.
  • This involvement is integral to the comprehensive skill set of most medical specialties.

Conclusions:

  • Specialist physicians should continue to provide general internal medicine services.
  • Removing this role risks diminishing the overall skills and expertise of specialist physicians.
