INTERNATIONAL CONSENSUS VALIDATION OF THE POPI TOOL (PEDIATRICS: OMISSION OF PRESCRIPTIONS AND INAPPROPRIATE PRESCRIPTIONS) TO IDENTIFY INAPPROPRIATE PRESCRIBING IN PEDIATRICS.

International consensus validation of the POPI tool (Pediatrics: Omission of Prescriptions and Inappropriate prescriptions) to identify inappropriate prescribing in pediatrics.

IntroductionWhile drug prescription should be based on established recommendations stemming from clinical trials but in pediatrics, many drugs are used without marketing authorization.Consequently recommendations are often based on clinical experience and the risk of inappropriate prescription (IP) is high.A tool for detecting IP in pediatrics-call

Data-Driven Position and Stiffness Control of Antagonistic Variable Stiffness Actuator Using Nonlinear Hammerstein Models

In this paper, an optimal PID controller is introduced for an antagonistic variable stiffness actuator (AVSA) based on Hammerstein models.A set of Hammerstein models is developed for the AVSA using the voltage difference method.For each stiffness level, linear and nonlinear Hammerstein models are identified using the least squares method.Experiment
