Fundamentals of Physiologic Monitoring

AACN Clinical Issues: Advanced Practice in Acute and Critical Care, 1993
For centuries, medical practitioners had no electronic medical instruments and had to rely on their senses of sight, hearing, smell, taste, and touch to obtain physiologic measurements. Although it is possible to estimate blood pressure by palpating the pulse at the radial or brachial artery, such estimates are not accurate. Determining arterial oxygen

Physiological changes of pregnancy and monitoring [PDF]

open access: possibleBest Practice & Research Clinical Obstetrics & Gynaecology, 2008
Advances in medical care have led to increasing numbers of complex, high-risk obstetric patients. Specialist training and a sound knowledge of normal maternal physiology are essential to optimize outcomes. One of the earliest observed changes is peripheral vasodilatation; this causes a fall in systemic vascular resistance and triggers physiological ...

Cerebral Physiologic Monitoring

Critical Care Clinics, 1989
Cerebral physiologic monitoring techniques can be categorized into those measuring perfusion, metabolism, and function. The physiologic basis for each of these is outlined, with a description of the clinical methods currently available. The clinical application of each monitoring modality is discussed with special reference to its impact on outcome of ...

Physiological Monitoring for Procedural Sedation

2021
Physiological monitoring of vital signs is essential for the safe practice of procedural sedation and analgesia. Oxygenation, ventilation, hemodynamics, and aspects of cortical activity can all be monitored noninvasively in spontaneously breathing patients.

Physiologic Monitoring of Infants and Children

AACN Advanced Critical Care, 1993
Accurate and safe monitoring of infants and children requires knowledge of their unique physiology, especially cardiovascular function, pulmonary physiology, and metabolic function. These individual features influence the equipment selection, as well as data interpretation.

Continuous Ketone Monitoring: A New Paradigm for Physiologic Monitoring

Journal of Diabetes Science and Technology, 2021
In this issue of JDST, Alva and colleagues present for the first time, development of a continuous ketone monitor (CKM) tested both in vitro and in humans. Their sensor measured betahydroxybutyrate (BHB) in interstitial fluid (ISF). The sensor was based on wired enzyme electrochemistry technology using BHB dehydrogenase.

WAP in physiological monitoring

2001 Conference Proceedings of the 23rd Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society, 2005
Summary form only given. Many parties have already practised telemedicine using cellular phones and the Internet. A current trend in telecommunication is the convergence of wireless communication and computer network technologies. Wireless Application Protocol (WAP) device is an example.
