1 Vessel Rate of Turn-If Rate of Turn is being received for an AIS vessel, a barb is added to the end of the heading vector, at right angles and pointing in the direction of turn. 2  Vessel Course Over Ground (COG) - COG is calculated from the delta of previous GPS locations and is displayed as a dashed line. The heading is displayed as a line emanating from the bow of the ship. 2  The length of the heading line is not related to vessel speed. 3  Vessel Rate of Turn-If Rate of Turn is being received for an AIS vessel, a barb is added to the end of the heading vector, at right angles and pointing in the direction of turn.
Drug-induced comas are used to protect the brain.They work by minimizing the energy expenditure of brain cells and by minimizing or preventing brain swelling. Therapeutic, medically-induced comas are generally resorted to only after conventional treatment measures fail to keep brain swelling down.
They serve to demonstrate that a novel brain phenomenon is observable in both humans and animals during coma that is deeper than the one reflected by the isoelectric EEG, and that this state is characterized by brain activity generated within the hippocampal formation.
