Validation of a novel respiratory rate monitor based on exhaled humidity [PDF]

British Journal of Anaesthesia, 2012
Postoperative monitoring of ventilation is largely restricted to the measurement of haemoglobin-oxygen saturation and respiratory rate (RR) derived from the ECG. measurement is inadequate when used with supplemental oxygen and ECG-derived RR is subject to artifacts.

Hair analysis of formoterol as a novel tool to assess long‐term inhalation medication adherence: Data from the TRICOLON trial

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aim The aim of this paper is to examine inhaled formoterol concentrations in hair and assess the potential of hair analysis as a tool for measuring long‐term adherence, by validation with objective data from digital inhalers. Methods Hair samples and digital inhaler data were collected from patients with COPD in 10 hospitals in the Netherlands as part ...

The Radon Exhalation Rate and Dose Assessment of Granite Used as a Building Material in Serbia

Atmosphere
The application of energy-saving policies in buildings could lead to a decrease in the air exchange rate in dwellings, which could consequently lead to an increase in indoor radon concentration and, therefore, to an increase in resident exposure to ...

Pharmacokinetics and safety of tezepelumab in children with mild, moderate or severe asthma and adolescents with mild‐to‐moderate asthma

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim Tezepelumab is a human monoclonal antibody that blocks the activity of thymic stromal lymphopoietin and is approved for adolescents and adults with severe asthma. This analysis assessed pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics and safety of tezepelumab up to 85 days postdose in adolescents and children.

A study of the natural radioactivity and radon exhalation rate in some cements used in India and its radiological significance

Journal of Radiation Research and Applied Sciences, 2016
The presence of natural radioactivity and radon exhalation from building materials contribute to the radiation dose received by human. So, it is essential to evaluate the activity levels of the primordial radionuclides (238U, 226Ra, 232Th and 40K ...

QUANTIFICATION OF BACK DIFFUSION IN RADON AND THORON EXHALATION RATE MEASUREMENTS

Radiation Protection Dosimetry, 2020
Abstract The radon (222Rn) and thoron (220Rn) fluxes from the soil and building materials are the major contributors to their indoor levels. Hence, the measurement of radon and thoron exhalation rates from the source matrix becomes the foremost step in controlling the indoor radon and thoron exposure.
