Experimentally, for model 1, the maximal steering was 11.7° ± 1.9°, 23.5° ± 3.5°, and 30.2° ± 4.4° for the lateral electrode powers of 0.1 W, 0.5 W, and 1.0 W, respectively. Simulations for the 470 kHz model predicted maximal steering of 8.8°, 16.1°, and 27° for lateral electrode powers of 0.1 W, 0.5 W, and 1.0 W, respectively. Simulations showed that the cause of the steering asymmetry was a non-uniform shear deformation associated with the slightly off-resonance lateral electric field driving frequency. This is the first demonstration of ultrasound steering using a single-element transducer, which can have important applications for ultrasound focusing with phased arrays. Convulsive status epilepticus (CSE) is a medical emergency associated with high rates of morbidity and mortality. Although guidelines for CSE management recommend rapid treatment of seizures, prior studies show that compliance with these guidelines is low. In this study, we assessed if implementation of a paper-based clinical pathway for the treatment of CSE improves the timeliness and appropriate dosing of first and second line anti-seizure medications (ASM). A non-digital CSE treatment protocol was implemented as part of a quality improvement initiative in 2016. A retrospective analysis was subsequently conducted on cases of CSE originating in the pediatric emergency department (ED) from 2012-2019. Standard descriptive statistics were used to assess patient demographics as well as the timing and dosing of the first and second line ASMs used in our protocol (lorazepam [LZP] and fosphenytoin [FOS]). Statistical process control charts (XmR charts) were used to assess the variation in time to drug administrnly about half of patients receiving the recommended dose. The implementation of a paper-based treatment protocol for CSE was associated with a decreased time to ASM administration among patients who arrived to the ED, part
