Infecties zijn op de intensive care veelvoorkomend. Patiënten worden met een infectie opgenomen, of kunnen een infectie oplopen op de intensive care. Ernstige sepsis en septische shock zijn belangrijke doodsoorzaken bij intensive care patiënten. Antibiotica zijn effectieve medicijnen indien tijdig toegediend en ook passend bij de bacterie die de infectie veroorzaakt.

A synthesis of biomechanics and neural control that draws on recent advances in robotics to address control problems solved by the human sensorimotor system. This book proposes a transdisciplinary approach to investigating human motor control that synthesizes musculoskeletal biomechanics and neural control. The authors argue that this integrated approach-which uses the framework of robotics to understand sensorimotor control problems-offers a more complete and accurate description than either...
