Abstract Background This study aimed to develop and assess a bedside nasojejunal tube placement technique designed for resource‐limited settings to address the specific challenges of enteral nutrition (EN) delivery in neurocritical care patients, particularly those at high risk of reflux and aspiration. The technique sought to overcome the drawbacks of

Hypotensive mechanisms of pulmonary insufflation in dogs
To differentiate between the mechanisms which have been proposed to account for the hypotensive effect of pulmonary insufflation, cyclic volume changes of the right ventricle were qualitatively monitored by means of a variable resistance strain gauge ...
