The three levels of intensity were defined by the investigators as follows: Non-intensive interventions (Simple Diagnostic Tests, Antibiotics); minimally intensive interventions (Artificial Nutrition/Hydration, Minor Surgery, Invasive Diagnostic Tests, Blood/Blood Product Transfusions); and intensive interventions (CPR, Mechanical Breathing, Major Surgery, Hemodialysis, Chemotherapy).
Complex analysis is typically more resource intensive than simple threshold, analysis requiring significant memory and CPU to analyse large volumes of historical data.
But so what if Italian bitter greens and Thai basil are far more labor-intensive than simple shrubbery?
Under these circumstances, running full-blown numerical models becomes impractical and resource intensive, and simpler and faster tools are needed.
Because of intensive brightness and simple signal pattern, SPARKs allow easy examination of kinase signaling in living animals in a qualitative way.
"I started slowly but then got back into the swing of things," he told TMS. "It just proves that with hard work and dedication, hours of sweating and putting intensive training into simple things you reap the rewards.
We need to look above and beyond simple intensive care unit mortality.
Urine pregnancy testing is inexpensive, not staff intensive and logistically simple to implement.
Unfortunately, measurement of nerve fiber density requires an endometrial biopsy and thus is more technically demanding, painful, time consuming, and resource intensive than a simple blood test and is therefore potentially less appealing to women and their health care providers.
We developed an "intensive" and reasonably simple, one-man (i.e., carried out by a single skilled pediatrician), therapeutic strategy for selected obese-overweight children, in the attempt to devise a possible alternative to multi-professional teamwork, that sometimes is not available or may be unpleasant for the children's families.
