    INVERTED PENDULUM ON A CART SENIOR DESIGN PROJECT REPORT
    (2023-05-03) Vergara, Sergio; Aljishi, Hawra; Logan, Dylan; Freije, Elizabeth; Weissbach, Robert; Pash, Phil; Lin, William; Stephens, Craig
    The purpose of this project is to design and build an inverted pendulum system from an existing nonworking inverted pendulum system for the Engineering and Technology Department. Once completed, this system will be used for educational purposes for future students to observe code, understand the design, and study the physics of the system. We have tested our system numerous times with a variety of different device configurations so as to perfect the system. We have clearly labeled and documented everything, which will help when students are working on the system in the future. This document contains but is not limited to the information for our scope, design decisions, schematics, design blocks, bill of materials, and code. This was designed to show the finalized overview of our systems and what we presented at the end of the semester.

    Moving toward standardization: physician reporting of sleep studies
    (American Academy of Sleep Medicine, 2023) Lastra, Alejandra C.; Ingram, David; Park, John; James, Elisabeth; Matthews, Camilla; Canapari, Craig; Mansukhani, Meghna; Stahl, Stephanie M.; Medicine, School of Medicine
    Detailed primary data collected from sleep studies should lead to specific and clear reports with evidence-based clinical recommendations that, when introduced by sleep medicine specialists, create a window of opportunity to support our non-sleep medicine referring teams and to engage patients and caregivers in their care as recipients of the reports. This is how sleep study reporting differs from other test reports; currently, there is wide variation in how the data collected are presented and summarized. The goal of this document is to offer recommendations for structured reporting of sleep studies. We offer a practical, complete, and relevant document and a structure that can be implemented across sleep centers nationwide and does not burden the interpreter. We anticipate some readers will opine that some of the content is beyond the scope of what the interpreter physician needs to include, while others will propose missing data that they feel should have been included. We feel that the flexibility of the proposal accommodates for this and allows for a "first step" toward standardization of physician reporting of sleep studies. High-quality structured reporting of sleep studies is becoming ever more important for patient care, benefiting patients, caregivers, clinicians, durable medical equipment companies, and payers.
