A New Diffusion Model to Estimate the Triiodothyronine Repletion in Infants During Cardiopulmonary Bypass For Congenital Heart Disease Using Stochastic Analysis
Abstract : Cardiopulmonary bypass suppresses circulating thyroid hormone levels. We hypothesized that triiodothyronine deficiency in the developing heart after bypass may adversely affect cardiac function reserve postoperatively. We consider two identical, parallel M/M/1 queues. Both queues are fed by a Poisson arrival stream of rate 𝜆 and have service rates equal to 𝜇. When both […]
