Performance of bioelectrical impedance analysis compared to dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) in Veterans with COPD

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
We examined the performance of a commercially-available handheld bioimpedance (BIA) device relative to dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) to assess body composition differences among Veterans with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

Brain monitoring using near-infrared spectroscopy to predict outcome after cardiac arrest: a novel phenotype in a rat model of cardiac arrest

open access: yesJournal of Intensive Care, 2021
Improving neurological outcomes after cardiac arrest (CA) is the most important patient-oriented outcome for CA research. Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) enables a non-invasive, real-time measurement of regional cerebral oxygen saturation.

Critical Systems Heuristics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Critical systems heuristics (CSH) is a framework for reflective professional practice organised around the central tool of boundary critique. This paper, written jointly by the original developer, Werner Ulrich, and Martin Reynolds, an experienced practitioner of CSH, offers a systematic introduction to the idea and use of boundary critique.

Use of a covered self-expanding metal airway stent for severe dynamic collapse within a bronchial aortic graft conduit in a post-lung transplant patient

open access: yesRespiratory Medicine Case Reports, 2021
We present a novel case in which a self-expanding, covered metal airway stent was utilized for severe dynamic collapse within a cadaveric aortic bronchial graft conduit in a post-lung transplant recipient with thoracic situs inversus.
