Airway Management in Pediatric Patients: Cuff-Solved Problem?

Children, 2022
Traditionally, uncuffed tubes were used in pediatric patients under 8 years in pursuit of reducing the risk of postextubation stridor. Although computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging studies confirmed that the subglottic area remains the ...

Feasibility of Brachial Occlusion Technique for Beat-to-Beat Pulse Wave Analysis

Sensors, 2022
Czech physiologist Penaz tried to overcome limitations of invasive pulse-contour methods (PCM) in clinical applications by a non-invasive method (finger mounted BP cuff) for continuous arterial waveform detection and beat-to-beat analysis. This discovery

Acute Effects of Different Blood Flow Restriction Protocols on Bar Velocity During the Squat Exercise

Frontiers in Physiology, 2021
The main goal of the present study was to evaluate the effects of different blood flow restriction (BFR) protocols (continuous and intermittent) on peak bar velocity (PV) and mean bar velocity (MV) during the squat exercise at progressive loads, from 40 ...

Implementation and validation of a novel noninvasive blood pressure measurement algorithm based on oscillometric method with obtaining international hypertension standards

Journal of Medical Signals and Sensors, 2022
Background: One of the most prevalent methods in noninvasive blood pressure (BP) measurement with cuff is oscillometric, which has two different types of deflation, including linear and step deflation. With this approach, in addition to designing a novel

Experimental and Numerical Testing of Ambient Temperature Impact on Lifespans of Cuffs of Vehicles’ Steering Systems

Applied Sciences, 2020
The steering system represents one of the most important systems of active safety in vehicles. The process of a steering system failure usually starts with the failure of its protective element (cuff).

Baby cuff as a reason for laryngeal mask airway cuff malfunction during airway management for anesthesia

Saudi Journal of Anaesthesia, 2014
Placement of laryngeal mask airway (LMA) is a blind procedure without requiring laryngoscopy. The reported success rate for LMA insertion at the first attempt is almost 95%; however, many functioning LMAs may not be in an ideal anatomic place.

Distributed Channel Synthesis [PDF]

, 2013
Two familiar notions of correlation are rediscovered as the extreme operating points for distributed synthesis of a discrete memoryless channel, in which a stochastic channel output is generated based on a compressed description of the channel input ...
