The objective of this study is to develop methods to dynamically select EEG channels to reduce power consumption in seizure detection while maintaining detection accuracy. A method is proposed whereby a number of primary screening channels are predefined. Depending on the classification results of those channels, further channels are selected for analysis. This method provides savings in computational complexity of 43%. A further method called idling is then proposed which increases the computational saving to 75%. The performance of a location-independent, decision-based method is used for comparison. The proposed method achieves better computational savings for the same performance than the decision-based method. The decision-based method was capable of higher overall computational savings, but with a reduction in seizure detection performance. Each method was also implemented with the REACT algorithm on a Blackfin microprocessor and the average power measured. The proposed methods gave a power saving of up to 47% with no reduction in detection performance.

Background: The Lovisenberg Diakonal Hospital recently introduced an Open-Door Policy in their (formerly) closed psychiatric admission wards for people with a forced admission to an acute psychiatric crisis. Their modern mental health care system is remarkably similar to the Dutch healthcare organization, with shared values and standards, and provides good grounds for an implementation of an Open-Doors Policy in the Netherlands.
Aim: Gaining inspiration to reduce seclusion and create a new quality development and assessment process for closed admission departments in the Dutch mental health care system.

Main Objectives: We aimed at comparing intratumoral and peritumoral deep learning, radiomics, and fusion models in predicting KRAS mutations in rectal cancer using endorectal ultrasound imaging.
Methods: This study included 304 patients with rectal cancer from Fujian Medical University Union Hospital. The patients were randomly divided into a training group (213 patients) and a test group (91 patients) at a 7:3 ratio.

Purpose: There is an ongoing discussion on whether the benefits of term elective labor induction outweigh its potential risks. This study evaluated the utility of a comprehensive clinical examination in identifying low-risk pregnancies suitable for expectant management beyond gestational age 40‒41 weeks and compared their outcomes with earlier labor induction by indication.
Methods: Pregnant women (n = 722) with ≥ 40 + 0 gestational weeks referred to a tertiary hospital were included in this prospective cohort.

Purpose Of Review: Postextubation respiratory support treatment approaches, indications, and subgroups of patients with different responses to those therapies are rapidly changing. Planning optimal therapy in terms of choosing devices, timing of application and selecting settings with the goal of minimizing extubation failure is becoming a challenge. This review aims to analyze all the available evidence from a clinical point of view, trying to facilitate decision making at the bedside.
