Monitoring and Benchmarking in Telecom Fixed-line Switching Plants
A set of all electric telecommunication fixed-line switching plants were monitored in order to analyze the energy use for telecommunication equipment and air conditioning system. Indeed these energy systems need a great deal of energy; air conditioning get to 30-40 % of the total energy use. The aim of the study was to apply tools for energy management and to define strategies aimed at making these systems more energy efficient. With the aim of simulating the typical energy behavior of the system and identifying the opportunity for energy savings measures, a numerical model was carried out . The mathematical relationship among the measured data was obtained by means of statistical analysis. The energy consumptions were linked to the main influencing factors. The study shows that such mathematical model accurately reproduce the energy behavior of the switching plants. In addition, indexes to track the performances of HVAC and electrical systems and energy management tools are applied and propose

Ultrafiltration in patients with hypervolemia and congestive heart failure
Fluid overload may occur in patients with myocardial dysfunction and different clinical problems. Myocoardial dysfunction may be a consequence of heart dilatation with reduced contractility, ventricular stiffness with diastolic dysfunction or the consequence of myocardial injury or circulating myocardial depressant factors as seen in sepsis. In all cases, cardiac support can be achieved by the optimization of fluid balance, the reduction in organ edema and the restoration of desirable levels of pre- and afterload. Several reports have shown that myocardial elastance can improve after hemofiltration with restoration of adequate fluid balance. In such conditions, continuous extracorporeal therapy may result in remarkable cardiovascular stability with maintenance of hemodynamic parameters, including mean arterial pressure, heart rate and systemic vascular resistance. Such stability, which is achieved through the slow continuous ultrafiltration and continuous refilling of the intravascular volume from the interstitium, enables the stability of the circulating blood volume and the preservation of organ perfusion. This is also crucial for renal recovery during acute renal failure. Copyright (C) 2004 S. Karger AG, Basel
