1.Research of air heater fault diagnosis based on Fuzzy theory
Chinese Medical Equipment Journal 1993;0(06):-
This paper describes the basic theories and means of fuzzy logic fault diagnosis. Aiming at the faults that appears in air heater,the fuzzy relation matrix used for its fault diagnosis is constructed. Based on that,the air heater fault diagnosis examples are given. Application results show that it is feasible to apply the method of fuzzy diagnosis to diagnose air heater faults and the method is simple and valid.

Objective:To explore the application of failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA) in low-energy X-ray intraoperative radiotherapy (IORT), analyze its potential risks in IORT, and preliminarily explore the feasibility of FMEA in optimizing IORT management and reducing the occurrence of potential risks.Methods:An FMEA working group was established by the IORT team (1 radiologist, 1 radiology physicist, 2 surgeons, and 2 nurses) to apply the FMEA methodology to conduct a systematic risk assessment. The process modules were established, the potential failure modes and causes for each module were analyzed, the severity (SR), frequency of occurrence (OR) and likelihood of detection (DR) of failure modes were scored and the risk priority number (RPN) was calculated: RPN= SR × OR × DR. The possible errors and potential clinical impact of each part of the radiotherapy process were prospectively analyzed and understood, the causes and current measures were analyzed for each failure mode and preventive measures were proposed and risk management measures were taken accordingly.Results:The IORT process was divided into 8 modules with 14 failure modes. The highest OR value was unsatisfactory target area confirmation (7 points), the highest SR value was equipment failure to discharge the beam (10 points), the highest DR value was wrong key entry after dose calculation (7 points), the highest RPN values were unsatisfactory target area confirmation (210 points) and ineffective protection of endangered organs (180 points). Weaknesses were corrected according to priorities, workflows were optimized and more effective management methods were developed.Conclusion:FMEA is an effective method of IORT management and contributes to reducing the occurrence of potential risks.

Interpretation of syndrome differentiation is a necessary topic for the research on intelligent syndrome differentiation. The syndrome differentiation system of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is huge, with diverse and interrelated interpretations, and non-standardized linguistic expressions, while detailed interpretations involve complex basic theories and literature of TCM, resulting in a challenging organization of the system. From the perspective of text mining, this article analyzed the limitations of existing intelligent syndrome differentiation research, clarified the importance and necessity of constructing a syndrome differentiation interpretation system, and proposed the idea of constructing an interpretation system including conceptual system, logical system, evaluation system, and visualization presentation. Future research can continue to refine the structure, logical and semantic relationships, as well as evaluation methods of the interpretation system based on this ideas, present concrete examples, and build the interpretation corpus by utilizing various data sources such as textbooks, medical records, medical discourse, and papers, to provide technicians with standard reference and data support for TCM syndrome differentiation interpretation.
