SOCIAL PRESCRIBING PRACTICES AND LEARNING ACROSS THE NORTH WEST COAST REGION: ESSENTIAL ELEMENTS AND KEY CHALLENGES TO IMPLEMENTING EFFECTIVE AND SUSTAINABLE SOCIAL PRESCRIBING SERVICES

Social prescribing practices and learning across the North West Coast region: essential elements and key challenges to implementing effective and sustainable social prescribing services

Abstract Introduction Social prescribing has become an important feature of the UK primary care offer.However, there remains limited evidence on how best to implement and deliver social prescribing programmes to maximise effectiveness and long-term sustainability.Aim To explore social prescribing practices and experience of implementing social pres

Physiologic effects of alveolar recruitment and inspiratory pauses during moderately-high-frequency ventilation delivered by a conventional ventilator in a severe lung injury model.

To investigate whether performing alveolar recruitment or adding inspiratory pauses could promote physiologic benefits (VT) during moderately-high-frequency positive pressure ventilation (MHFPPV) delivered by a conventional ventilator in a porcine model of severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).Prospective experimental laboratory study w

Stability Simulation of a Vehicle with Wheel Active Steering

This paper deals with the possibility of increasing the vehicle driving stability at a higher speed.One of the ways how to achieve higher stability is using the D/W Inlet Valve 4WS system.Mathematical description of vehicle general movement is a very complex task.For simulation, models which are aptly simplified are used.For the first approach, so-
