Evidence-based medicine: A survey among perioperative health care professionals in India.

Background And Aims: Evidence-based medicine (EBM) is defined as the use of scientifically proven evidence for delivering best possible health care to patients. Despite growing emphasis on the need for EBM-based practice, acceptability, and perceptions toward EBM might differ among health professionals. The objective of this study was to assess the attitude, knowledge, and current practices of EBM among perioperative care health professionals in India.

A 180-V Integrated Linear Amplifier for Ultrasonic Imaging Applications in a High-Voltage CMOS SOI Technology.

This brief presents a monolithically integrated fully differential linear HV amplifier as the driver of an ultrasonic transducer. The linear amplifier is capable of transmitting HV arbitrary signals with a very low harmonic distortion, which is suitable for tissue harmonic imaging and other ultrasonic modes for enhanced imaging quality. The amplifier is designed and implemented using the 0.
