Achieving Optimal Therapeutic Hypothermia on Transport.

Advances in neonatal care : official journal of the National Association of Neonatal Nurses

Schump E, Lancaster T, Sparks D, Weatherstone K, Holcomb R.
PMID: 27533331
Adv Neonatal Care. 2016 Oct;16(5):E3-E10. doi: 10.1097/ANC.0000000000000323.

BACKGROUND: Early initiation of therapeutic hypothermia (TH) for the treatment of hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) has been shown to improve outcomes. Many of these patients require transport to treatment facilities. At the time of the study, there were no...

Disparities in Gynecological Malignancies.

Frontiers in oncology

Chatterjee S, Gupta D, Caputo TA, Holcomb K.

AIMS AND OBJECTIVES: This paper reports an integrative review of the literature on nursing competency standards for nurses working in primary health care and, in particular, general practice.BACKGROUND: Internationally, there is growing emphasis on building a strong primary health...

Suppression of MHD fluctuations leading to improved confinement in a gun-driven spheromak.

Physical review letters

McLean HS, Woodruff S, Hooper EB, Bulmer RH, Hill DN, Holcomb C, Moller J, Stallard BW, Wood RD, Wang Z.
PMID: 11909469
Phys Rev Lett. 2002 Mar 25;88(12):125004. doi: 10.1103/PhysRevLett.88.125004. Epub 2002 Mar 08.

Magnetic fluctuations have been reduced to approximately 1% during discharges on the Sustained Spheromak Physics Experiment by shaping the spatial distribution of the bias magnetic flux in the device. In the resulting quiescent regime, the safety factor profile is...

Overview of equilibrium reconstruction on DIII-D using new measurements from an expanded motional Stark effect diagnostic.

The Review of scientific instruments

Holcomb CT, Makowski MA, Allen SL, Meyer WH, Van Zeeland MA.
PMID: 19044663
Rev Sci Instrum. 2008 Oct;79(10):10F518. doi: 10.1063/1.2955711.

Motional Stark effect (MSE) measurements constrain equilibrium reconstruction of DIII-D tokamak plasmas using the equilibrium code EFIT. In 2007, two new MSE arrays were brought online, bringing the system to three core arrays, two edge arrays, and 64 total...

Optimization of the optical design of the ITER MSE diagnostic.

The Review of scientific instruments
