Non-Invasive Ocular Rigidity Measurement: A Differential Tonometry Approach

Acta Medica, 2015
Purpose: Taking into account the fact that Goldmann applanation tonometry (GAT) geometrically deforms the corneal apex and displaces volume from the anterior segment whereas Dynamic Contour Tonometry (DCT) does not, we aimed at developing an algorithm ...

Comparison of dynamic contour tonometry (Pascal®) with pneumotonometry and Goldmann tonometry [PDF]

, 2007
To compare the intraocular pressure measurements as defined by the Pascal tonometer, the Goldmann tonometer and the pneumotonometer. METHODS: This was an observational clinical study, which included two hundred and five randomly ...

Bridging competence and practice: The role of Entrustable Professional Activities (EPAs) in optometric education

Ophthalmic and Physiological Optics, Volume 45, Issue 7, Page 2063-2071, November 2025.
Abstract Background Competency‐based education (CBE) has gained prominence in health profession education, emphasising the assessment of learners based on their ability to perform essential tasks in clinical practice. Entrustable Professional Activities (EPAs) operationalise competency assessment by translating broad competencies into specific tasks ...

Acute live firefighting effects on ventricular‐arterial coupling and pulsatile afterload in middle‐aged firefighters

Physiological Reports, Volume 13, Issue 22, November 2025.
Abstract Firefighting increases afterload, leading to ventricular‐arterial coupling mismatch in young firefighters that may contribute to coronary hypoperfusion and the elevated risk of on‐duty cardiac events. Since this risk is higher with aging in firefighters, we examined their ventricular‐vascular coupling and afterload responses to acute ...

Artifact management methodologies for arterial blood pressure signals: A systematic scoping review of human and animal literature

Physiological Reports, Volume 13, Issue 19, October 2025.
Abstract Arterial blood pressure (ABP) is a broadly measured vital signal used to monitor cardiovascular health through raw signal and derived metrics. Artifacts are a pervasive issue, resulting in a declined utility of the signal. The aim of this review was to examine the existing literature pertinent to artifact management strategies in ABP signals ...
