Abstract:
A feedback letter from a medical specialist to a general practitioner above all contains relevant medical information. It is not meant to impose new diagnostic and treatment responsibilities on a general practitioner. Yet, the recommendations a feedback letter may contain are not without obligation. The general practitioner is expected to consider whether he will implement the recommendations or not. It is important to realise that general practitioners do not always read long feedback letters. In addition, it is recommended that medical specialists and general practitioners do not refrain from contacting each other, particularly in case of important diagnostic or treatment issues. A mere feedback letter may be insufficient to convey relevant information.

Feedback control systems
Linear feedback systems are theoretical models that simplify analysis and design. These systems operate under the principle that their output is directly proportional to their input within certain ranges. For instance, an amplifier in a control system behaves linearly as long as the input signal remains within a specific range. However, most physical systems exhibit inherent nonlinearity...

Effects of feedback
Feedback significantly modifies the gain of a control system. The gain of a system without feedback is altered by a factor of one plus GH, where G represents...
