“…The main internal parameters of the algorithm are shown in Table 1. According to the analysis of potential field forces in Figure 6 (A), it can be seen that the potential field forces make the AGV reach dynamic equilibrium at points (3,3), and the trajectory shows that the AGV's navigation is aborted and it cannot continue to travel to the target point. The improved algorithm, as shown in Figure 6(B), generates random target points in the unreachable area of the target, guides the AGV out of the ring obstacle and successfully plans a complete path.…”

“…AGV (Automated Guided Vehicle) is an automatic guided vehicle capable of autonomous navigation without human intervention [1] , which has been widely used in logistics [2] , medicine [3] , shipping [4] , industry [5] and other scenarios.With the rapid development of AGV technology [6] , in the medical field, as an automated transport equipment, carrying AGV has received more and more attention and gradually developed in the direction of intelligence [7] .Therefore, it is a key research direction for AGVs to safely avoid dynamic and static obstacles such as pedestrians and medical devices in the medical environment [8] , and to reasonably plan a path from the starting point to the target point [9] . At present, scholars from different countries have made a series of research and improvement on the path planning algorithm and the limitations of the algorithm itself [10] .…”

Aiming at the problem that Automated guided vehicle (AGV) faces dynamic and static obstacles in the process of transporting patients in medical environment and needs to avoid in real time, inspired by the behavior of antelopes during migration, this paper proposes a bionic obstacle avoidance strategy based on adaptive behavior of antelopes. The traditional artificial potential field and dynamic window algorithm are improved by using the bionic characteristics of antelope migration.By adding new potential field force points and improving the window size, the success rate and prediction range of AGV navigation are improved.Simulation experiments were carried out through the numerical simulation platform, and the verification results showed that:The bionic obstacle avoidance strategy proposed in this paper can avoid dynamic and static obstacles at the same time. In the example, the success rate of path planning is increased by 34%, the running time is reduced by 33%, and the average path length is reduced by 1%. The proposed method can realize the integration of “dynamic and static” avoidance in the process of transporting patients, and effectively save the time of transporting patients by AGV.It provides a theoretical basis for realizing obstacle avoidance and rapid loading of AGV in medical environment.

“…This was performed on 16 patients, and all 16 patients, adequate IOP outcome was achieved at the end of 1 year with or without additional anti-glaucoma medications (AGM). Amputation of adult implant,[ 54 ] trimming the wings of 250 mm 2 Baerveldt implant,[ 55 ] and usage of FP8 model implants[ 56 ] are other modifications proposed in the literature. Turaga et al .…”

They concluded that the use of the pediatric FP8 Ahmed glaucoma valve (AGV) in adult post-vitreoretinal surgery glaucoma eyes with severe conjunctival scarring and limited subconjunctival space resulted in reasonable IOP control compared with the standard FP7 AGV implant.…”

Vitreoretinal surgeries either in the form of external compression by buckles or by increasing the intraocular volume by tamponades can cause a significant rise in intraocular pressure (IOP), causing glaucoma to be one of the most common consequences of vitreoretinal surgeries despite improved surgical techniques. Identifying the mechanism that causes the raised IOP is crucial as the management of glaucoma can differ accordingly. Intravitreal (IVT) injections in the form of IVT steroids or anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) injections can also cause a significant rise in the IOP and effect, especially the glaucomatous eyes, which are already predisposed. Not just the overlapping clinical features make the diagnosis confusing but also associated scarring of the conjunctiva, and the presence of episcleral hardware in some cases due to scleral buckle make the surgical management of glaucoma in these eyes very challenging. In this review, we describe in detail the various mechanisms causing secondary glaucoma post vitreoretinal surgeries with a focus on how to distinguish between them. We also discuss the possible consequences of anti-VEGF agents on IOP, various surgical challenges, and modifications with newer surgical options in the management of this refractory glaucoma.
