TV in VR Changho Choi, Peter Langner, Praveen Reddy, Satender Saroha, Sunil Srinivasan, Naveen Suryavamsh
TV in VR Changho Choi, Peter Langner, Praveen Reddy, Satender Saroha, Sunil Srinivasan, Naveen Suryavamsh Introduction The evolution of storytelling has gone through various phases. Earliest known methods were through plain text. Plays and theatres were used to bring some of these stories to life but for the most part, artists relied on their audience to imagine the fictional worlds they were describing. Illustrations were a nice addition to help visualize an artist's perception. With the advent of cinema in the early 1900’s starting with silent films to the current summer blockbusters with their CGI, 3D and surround sound – viewers are transported into these imaginary worlds – to experience these worlds just as the creators of this content envisioned it. Virtual reality, with its ability to provide an immersive medium with a sense of presence and depth is the next frontier of storytelling. Seminal events in history Moon landing in 1969 When Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin took the first steps on the moon it captured the imagination of the world. The culmination of a grand vision and the accompanying technological breakthroughs brought about an event that transfixed generations to come. As it happened in the 1969, the enabling technology for experiencing this event was the trusted radio or through grainy broadcasts of television anchors describing the events as they were described to them! Super Bowl 49 As the Seattle Seahawks stood a yard away from winning the Super Bowl in 2015, 115 million people watched on NBC in the United States alone. In front of their big screen TVs and every possible option explained to them by the commentators, the casual and the rabid football fan alike watched as the Seahawks lost due to a confluence of events. -

We evaluate the literature on multiple ¯elds that are related to either the problem setting (e.g. performance measures or patient classes) or the technical features (e.g. solution technique or uncertainty incorporation). Since papers are pooled and evaluated in various ways, a diversi¯ed and detailed overview is obtained that facilitates the identi¯cation of manuscripts related to the reader's speci¯c interests. Throughout the literature review, we summarize the signi¯cant trends in research on operating room planning and scheduling and we identify areas that need to be addressed in the future.

Virtual reality/360º Virtual reality/360º One early lesson I learned was the difference between 360 video and VR. Frankly, I was a bit disappointed to discover that, from a VR purist’s point of view, what I’d been shooting was not actually VR. It was merely 360 video. VR, you see, has Stitch lines are like fault lines in the Earth’s crust, liable to be as good as its name – virtual reality.

Study of Factors Associated with Waiting Time for Patients Undergoing Emergency Surgery in a Tertiary Care Centre in Nepal
JSAN 2014;1:7-12. Available online at www.jsan.org.np Journal of Society of Anesthesiologists of Nepal Original Article Study of factors associated with waiting time for patients undergoing emergency surgery in a tertiary care centre in Nepal. Subhash Prasad Acharya, Dinesh Dharel, Smrity Upadhyaya, Nabin Khanal, Sandesh Dahal, Sumit Dahal, Karmapath Aryal Tribhuvan University Teaching Hospital, Institute of Medicine, Maharajgunj, Kathmandu, Nepal. Abstract Background: Emergency surgeries throughout the world are demanding earlier surgical times. In a developing country like Nepal this cannot be possible because of lot of factors. So we planned to study such factors that could interplay and increase the waiting time for emergency surgeries. Methods: A prospective observational study was conducted over 45 days and all patients diagnosed with general surgical and orthopedic emergencies were followed till they were operated. Results: Out of 1211 patients presenting to emergency department, 92 required emergency surgery. The mean age was 29.72 year and 76.1% of the patients were male. The mean time from presentation to the emergency department to the first surgical consultation was 170 minutes, from surgical consultation to decision of surgery was 28 minutes, from decision of surgery to transfer to operating room was 426 minutes, from arrival in operating room to anesthesia consultation was 18 minutes, and from anesthesia consultation to start of surgical incision was 75 minutes. The total average waiting time from arrival at emergency department to the start of surgery was 717 minutes. The factors were, viz., pre-occupancy of theatre (59.8%), special procedures/intervention required prior to surgery (23.9%), arrangement of logistics/finances by patient family (13%), arrangement of blood products (10.9%), consultations (9.8%), delay in giving consent by patients/family (5.4%), delay in arrangement of supplies (9.8%), and shift change of nursing staff (3.3%). -
