The Prevention of Gastric Inflation — A Neglected Benefit of Cricoid Pressure [PDF]
The ability of cricoid pressure to prevent inflation of the stomach during mask ventilation of a patient was studied. Fifty patients were randomly allocated to either have or not have cricoid pressure applied during a three-minute period of standardised mask ventilation.

Does exercising bilaterally require measuring bilaterally? Bilateral versus unilateral tourniquet cuff inflation during measurement of arterial occlusion pressure: considerations for blood flow restriction exercise [PDF]
IntroductionIt is recommended to use a tourniquet cuff pressure between 40-80% of the individuals’ arterial occlusion pressure (AOP) during blood flow restriction (BFR) exercise. The AOP is usually determined in one limb for unilateral BFR exercise or in

Pipeline Pressures and Sectoral Inflation Dynamics [PDF]
In a production network, shocks originating in individual sectors do not remain confined to individual sectors but permeate through the pricing chain. The notion of “pipeline pressures” alludes to this cascade effect. In this paper we provide a structural definition of pipeline pressures to inflation and use Bayesian techniques to infer their presence ...

Investigating the Factors Affecting on Inflation with Emphasis on Knowledge-based Economy in Oil Exporting Countries [PDF]
Inflation rate, one of the components of economic stability, has always been a special concern of policy makers. Therefore, in addition to increasing instability in the economy, a high inflation rate causes an increase in welfare losses, a decrease in ...

Simulation study on performance optimization factors of inflatable cushion based on rigidity theory
In this study, we present the influencing factors and the specific degree of cushioning performance of the air column bag. We analyze and summarize the theory of air column bag rigidity and determine that the initial inflation pressure is the most ...
