In this paper, a differential resistance to current conversion circuit for Electronic nose (E-nose) breath analyzer is presented. Over an input resistance range of more than 5-decades (500Ω to 100MΩ), a precision, less than 1%, required by novel gas sensing system in portable applications, is preserved. As a result, the proposed circuit obtains high accuracy under simulation. The outputs of the proposed Resistance to Current (R-to-I) conversion circuit achieve a percentage error below 0.25% under environment corners. The reliability of the proposed circuit is also investigated under the effect of process variations. In order to assess the correctness of the proposed architecture, the circuit was compared to similar solutions presented in literature. The proposed architecture attains a worst-case percentage error of 0.05%.","PeriodicalId":430369,"journal":{"name":"2016 3rd Middle East Conference on Biomedical Engineering (MECBME)","volume":"57 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116301387","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

With the sudden splurge in mobile and wearable devices, activity data has become more readily available to design useful applications that enhance the users' everyday lives without any obtrusive intervention. This paper focuses on the use of a system identification approach to characterize human movement dynamics from accelerometer sensors during physical activity and subsequently to construct user-specific models that can potentially be incorporated in personalized healthcare and safety. The study investigates the human wrist-to-ankle dynamic relationship using various linear prediction model structures. It was found that the ARMAX model structure is the most widely applicable across stereotypical activity patterns (e.g. walking, running). Importantly, and after conducting a series of order selection and validation tests, it was noted that specific activities across multiple individuals can be fit within a common model where the orders are fixed and only the parameters of that model are tuned to individual users. A potential application of these common models to user identification, as reflected through the models' frequency responses, is discussed.","PeriodicalId":430369,"journal":{"name":"2016 3rd Middle East Conference on Biomedical Engineering (MECBME)","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128089292","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In healthcare organizations, clinical engineering departments play a big role in maintaining the safety and reliability of medical equipment. In order to mitigate failures of such equipment and control risks, a proper Medical Equipment Management Program (MEMP) and a monitoring system should be established. The purpose of this paper is to forecast risks by using Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (FMEA) method and apply it on Monte Carlo simulation which adds risks analysis to Excel® by @RISK tool. The data of some medical devices is extracted from a hospital's maintenance management system and are identified according to their likelihood, severity, and difficulty of detection. However, the results of this mathematical simulation are integrated in a probability distribution function, and then this is integrated in the existing Hospital Institution Quality Management (HIQMA) system that enables us to identify medical equipment risks that affect patients, staff, and the work environment and mitigate them by providing contingency plans, policies, strategies, and other tactics.","PeriodicalId":430369,"journal":{"name":"2016 3rd Middle East Conference on Biomedical Engineering (MECBME)","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123790578","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
