Goals realistic goal

Maintenance of Sinus Rhythm/Reduction in the Frequency of Episodes of Paroxysmal AF In many patients, permanent maintenance of sinus rhythm following cardioversion is an unrealistic goal. Many, if not most, patients experience recurrence of AF after cardioversion. Therefore, a more realistic goal for many... 

If the patient is not satisfied, provide further counseling to ensure that they are using the therapy appropriately and that they have realistic goals. 

Considering that the chemical transformations attempted hitherto involved only one or two atoms, the series of articles from the group of Peter Kollman appeared to represent a quantum leap forward. It was soon recognized, however, that these calculations were evidently too short and probably not converged. They demonstrated, nonetheless, that modeling biologically relevant systems was a realistic goal for the computational chemist. 

Patient education about goals, realistic expectations, and dangers of overtreatment is important to optimize therapeutic outcomes. Treatment regimens are targeted to types of lesions and acne severity (Fig. 15-1) ... 

Total elimination of UI signs and symptoms may not be possible. Therefore, realistic goals should be established for therapy. 

Foresight Nanotech Institute. Available online. URL http //www. foresight.org/. Accessed May 28, 2009. Founded in 1986 and based in Menlo Park, California, this nonprofit organization aims to promote the beneficial aspects of nanotechnology and inform the public on the achievements and the realistic goals in this field of research. Foresight Nanotech Institute s Web site contains many articles with current news and basic scientific information on nanotechnology, as well as a roadmap for future developments. 

G. R. Fleming Sure the wavepacket spreads, but not as much as you would think on this time scale. What can be done experimentally to get precise data is to do wavelet analysis to see what shape it had. That is a realistic goal for a simple system using solid-state lasers. 

A far more realistic goal is the inherently safer plant. Such a plant is designed to assure that it can be operated safely and so as to minimize the effects of any accidents which do occur. The object is to design a plant which can be safe the people who will operate and maintain it largely determine whether it will be safe. 

For H2 ECOnomy, a more realistic goal now is to become a big research center that would sell fuel cell know-how to foreign manufacturers. The company is already well positioned to achieve that. There are a number of markets today where H2 ECOnomy s fuel cell products can compete with current technologies. These areas include reliable back-up power or UPS systems and remote applications in the telecommunications area. H2 ECOnomy s latest product is a fuel cell-based UPS extender with a capacity of 1 kilowatt. It can simultaneously power three personal computers. 

For a Chemical Information System to be widely used and highly valued, it should help each chemist do his or herjob. In the next century, one may envisage a system which would answer the ultimate question which molecule should I make to exhibit the desired activity with minimum undesirable side-effects. Today, a realistic goal is to have a computer system which increases the number of molecules the chemist can justify making and reduces the time taken. 

Preventing drug abuse is a realistic goal. Two approaches are possible. One is to teach people, especially young people, how to satisfy their needs and desires without recourse to drugs. The... 

The preparation of compounds structurally similar to 283 and 284 in order to arrive at their stable mimetics or antagonists seemed to be the most obvious and realistic goal. As a result of these pursuits, a number of prostanoid analogs were synthesized. The bicyclic compound 285 was especially efficient as a stable mimetic of 283.The hybrid structure 286 containing both a- and )S-prostanoid side chains attached to a terpenoid backbone exhibited significant activity as an antagonist to 283 (Scheme 4.87). 

While Figure 2 was constructed to illustrate the maximum eflEect on the hazard index that could be achieved using present separations technology, a more realistic goal is to separate each actinide only to a degree which is in proportion to its contribution to the total hazard. Thus, for the hazard index of the wastes to be reduced to less than 5% of that of pitchblende after storage for 1000 years, we must recover 99.99% of the...
