Lithium Battery Fires: Implications for Air Medical Transport
Air Medical Journal, 2012Lithium-ion batteries provide more power and longer life to electronic medical devices, with the benefits of reduced size and weight. It is no wonder medical device manufacturers are designing these batteries into their products. Lithium batteries are found in cell phones, electronic tablets, computers, and portable medical devices such as ventilators,

The use of lithium in the medically ill
General Hospital Psychiatry, 1990Many patients taking lithium for the treatment of mood disorders suffer from concomitant medical illnesses. Because of its effects on multiple organ systems, extra caution is required when lithium is used in the presence of medical illness. Available data regarding the use of lithium in the presence of thyroid, renal, cardiovascular, dermatologic, and ...

Implantable medical applications of lithium-ion technology
Seventeenth Annual Battery Conference on Applications and Advances. Proceedings of Conference (Cat. No.02TH8576), 2003The requirements for implantable medical batteries include high energy density, reliable performance, and a long service lifetime. These requirements have typically been satisfied by lithium primary cells. However, many new and exciting medical devices are being developed which have energy requirements that cannot be satisfied by a reasonably sized ...

The future of lithium and lithium-ion batteries in implantable medical devices
Journal of Power Sources, 2001New implantable medical devices and applications are being developed at a rapid rate. Many of these applications have higher power and/or energy requirements than existing applications. These needs will drive the development of new primary lithium chemistries and the implementation of rechargeable lithium-ion technology.

Serotonin Syndrome after Lithium Add-on Medication to Paroxetine
Pharmacopsychiatry, 1997A 59-year-old female patient was hospitalized on account of a depressive episode in the course of a long-standing bipolar disorder. On a combination of lithium (400 mg/day) and paroxetine (30 mg/day) she developed symptoms of shivering, high-frequency tremor of the upper and lower limbs, skin flush in the face, agitation, and slight impairment of ...

THE MEDICAL ECONOMICS OF LITHIUM TREATMENT FOR MANIC-DEPRESSIVES
Psychiatric Services, 1977UThere is flO longer any real doubt that lithium carhonate has a preventive effect on recurrent manicdepressive psychoses. There have been well-controlled double-blind studies confirming a prophylactic effeet.”2 A study that involved 18 hospitals and 205 patients showed that lithium was significantly more effective than a placebo in preventing relapses.

Hybrid cathode lithium batteries for implantable medical applications
Journal of Power Sources, 2006Abstract Lithium batteries with hybrid cathodes of Ag 2 V 4 O 11 and CF x have been developed that combine the best features of both cathode components. They can offer power density and energy density that are competitive with or superior to other developed battery chemistries, along with the stability and reliability needed for implantable ...

The lithium—iodine cell for medical and commercial applications
Journal of Power Sources, 1980Abstract The lithium—iodine solid electrolyte pacemaker cell is described along with other versions of the cell intended for watches, CMOS memories and oil well data logging applications. Process modifications are mentioned which can increase the current density of the system from 1 μA/cm2 in pacemaker cells to 60 μA/cm2 in button cells for watches ...
