NORTON [16 records]

Record 1 2011-11-24

English

Subject field(s)
  • Diagnostic Procedures (Medicine)
CONT

The Norton Scale, developed in the 1950s to assess pressure ulcer risk, should have its onset threshold moved from 14 to 15 or 16. Close monitoring of patients' health and pressure ulcer risk factors remain key elements in accurate use of this scale. Regardless of which of the several pressure ulcer assessment scales is used, health care providers must realize scales indicate but do not predict. [...] The Braden Scale's validity for predicting patients at risk for pressure ulcers is affected by patient nutrition, patient history, and treatment regimen.

[Échelle pour] l’évaluation des facteurs de risque d’escarre.

Spanish

Campo(s) temático(s)
  • Procedimientos diagnósticos (Medicina)
DEF

Escala de valoración del riesgo de padecer úlceras por presión.

CONT

Las escalas de Braden y Norton son superiores al juicio clínico de las enfermeras para predecir el riesgo de un paciente de desarrollar UPP [úlceras por presión]. El análisis ponderado y el metaanálisis de los estudios de validación ofrecen adecuada evidencia para recomendar la escala de Braden, como la que ofrece el mejor balance sensibilidad/especificidad, y la mayor capacidad de predicción de los pacientes que pueden desarrollar UPP.

Record 2 2011-06-07

English

Subject field(s)
  • Electronics
  • Electrical Engineering
DEF

The theorem that the voltage across an element that is connected to two terminals of a linear network is equal to the short-circuit current between these terminals in the absence of the element, divided by the sum of the admittances between the terminals associated with the element and the network respectively.

CONT

Norton's theorem states that a second equivalent network consists of a current source I(s) in parallel with an impedance Z(s). The impedance Z(s) is identical with the Thévenin impedance, and I(s) is the Laplace transform of the current between the two terminals when they are short-circuited.
