Development of a New Integrated System for Vital Sign Monitoring in Small Animals

open access: yesSensors, 2022
Monitoring the vital signs of mice is an essential practice during imaging procedures to avoid populational losses and improve image quality. For this purpose, a system based on a set of devices (piezoelectric sensor, optical module and thermistor) able ...

Exercise and thermoregulation

open access: yesJournal of Physical Fitness and Sports Medicine, 2012
Humans have physiological, intellectual, and cultural capabilities to maintain viable body temperatures under several conditions. We do exercise in daily living for labor, health, and just fun.

Heated wire humidification circuit attenuates the decrease of core temperature during general anesthesia in patients undergoing arthroscopic hip surgery [PDF]

open access: yesKorean Journal of Anesthesiology, 2017
BackgroundIntraoperative hypothermia is common in patients undergoing general anesthesia during arthroscopic hip surgery. In the present study, we assessed the effect of heating and humidifying the airway with a heated wire humidification circuit (HHC ...

Protection of the brain against heat damage

open access: yesJournal of Physical Fitness and Sports Medicine, 2014
In homeothermic animals, metabolic heat production in the brain is higher than in other tissues. However, cerebral tissue is susceptible to heat. Several animals have mechanisms that selectively cool the brain during hyperthermia (i.e., selective brain ...

Wearable Device for Observation of Physical Activity with the Purpose of Patient Monitoring Due to COVID-19

open access: yesSignals, 2022
In late 2019, a new genre of coronavirus (COVID-19) was first identified in humans in Wuhan, China. In addition to this, COVID-19 spreads through droplets, so quarantine is necessary to halt the spread and to recover physically.

Assessment of brain mechanisms involved in the processes of thermal sensation, pleasantness/unpleasantness, and evaluation

open access: yesIBRO Reports, 2019
The conscious perception of thermal stimuli is divided into two categories: thermal sensation (i.e., discriminative component) and pleasantness/unpleasantness (i.e., hedonic component).

Effect of Hot Water Bottles on Body Temperature during Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Dogs under General Anesthesia: A Retrospective Study

open access: yesVeterinary Sciences, 2022
Prevention of hypothermia induced by anesthesia and enhanced by low environmental temperatures is difficult in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examinations in dogs as forced warming devices, including magnetic materials, are not acceptable for use in ...

Estrogenic modulation of female thermoregulatory behavior in a cold environment

open access: yesJournal of Physical Fitness and Sports Medicine, 2016
Thermoregulation is categorized as either autonomic (i.e., sweating, shivering) or behavioral (i.e., wearing clothes, usage of air conditioner) thermoregulation. Compared to autonomic thermoregulation, the neural pathway of behavioral thermoregulation in
