Investigating the Situation of Iranian Hospitals in Terms of Implementing Mandatory Patient Safety Standards: A Systematic Review.

Background: Evaluate the patient's safety status in Iranian hospitals using the Patient safety friendly hospital initiative (PSFHI) assessment tool provided by the World Health Organization. PSFHI assessment tool of 140 patient safety standards, they are classified as mandatory (20 standards), basic (90 standards) and advanced (30 standards). Mandatory standards are necessary criteria that hospitals must meet to register for PSFHI.

Investigation of the plaque morphology effect on changes of pulsatile blood flow in a stenosed curved artery induced by an external magnetic field.

In a new therapeutic technique, called magnetic drug targeting (MDT), magnetic particles carrying therapeutic agents are directed to the target tissue by applying an external magnetic field. Meanwhile, this magnetic field also affects the blood as a biomagnetic fluid. Therefore, it is necessary to select a magnetic field with an acceptable range of influence on the blood flow.

Flow visualization over a thick blunt trailing-edge airfoil with base cavity at low Reynolds numbers using PIV technique.

Abstract: In this study, the effect of cutting the end of a thick airfoil and adding a cavity on its flow pattern is studied experimentally using PIV technique. First, by cutting 30% chord length of the Riso airfoil, a thick blunt trialing-edge airfoil is generated. The velocity field around the original airfoil and the new airfoil is measured by PIV technique and compared with each other.
