A simple method of partial inflation of the LMA cuff before insertion in children to allow cuff pressure without adjustment after insertion [PDF]

open access: yesKorean Journal of Anesthesiology, 2012
BackgroundThe cuff of the laryngeal mask airway (LMA) is preferred to be partially inflated before insertion in pediatric cases. However, it is not known how much inflation is appropriate.

Accuracy of pulse interval timing in ambulatory blood pressure measurement [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Blood pressure (BP) monitors rely on pulse detection. Some blood pressure monitors use pulse timings to analyse pulse interval variability for arrhythmia screening, but this assumes that the pulse interval timings detected from BP cuffs are accurate ...

Effects of bone marrow aspirate concentrate and platelet-rich plasma on patients with partial tear of the rotator cuff tendon

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 2018
BackgroundWe compared the clinical course of rotator cuff tears between rotator cuff exercise and bone marrow aspirate concentration (BMAC)-platelet rich plasma (PRP) injection to identify the therapeutic effects of BMAC-PRP on partial tear of the ...

Dynamic three-dimensional shoulder MRI during active motion for investigation of rotator cuff diseases [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Background MRI is the standard methodology in diagnosis of rotator cuff diseases. However, many patients continue to have pain despite treatment, and MRI of a static unloaded shoulder seems insufficient for best diagnosis and treatment.

Patient-Specific Oscillometric Blood Pressure Measurement: Validation for Accuracy and Repeatability

open access: yesIEEE Journal of Translational Engineering in Health and Medicine, 2017
Oscillometric devices are widely used for automatic cuff blood pressure (BP) measurement. These devices estimate BP from the oscillometric cuff pressure waveform using population average methods.

The Effects of Brachial Arterial Stiffening on The Accuracy of Oscillometric Blood Pressure Measurement: A Computational Model Study

open access: yesJournal of Biomechanical Science and Engineering, 2012
Oscillometric noninvasive blood pressure measurement (ONBPM) is nowadays widely applied in health care. However, ONBPM has been found to exhibit large interindividual variability in accuracy.

Optimal Equivocation in Secrecy Systems a Special Case of Distortion-based Characterization

open access: yes, 2013
Recent work characterizing the optimal performance of secrecy systems has made use of a distortion-like metric for partial secrecy as a replacement for the more traditional metric of equivocation.
