Can passive leg raising be used to guide fluid administration?

, 2006
Predicting fluid responsiveness has become a topic of major interest. Measurements of intravascular pressures and volumes often fail to predict the response to fluids, even though very low values are usually associated with a positive response to fluids.

Interbody Wire for Reconfigurable Robots: Bridging Integrated Morphological Reconfiguration and Distributed Wire‐Mediated Cooperation

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
TwinX shows how a single interbody wire connecting two robots can support both integrated morphological reconfiguration and distributed wire‐mediated cooperation. When the robots dock, they reconfigure into different forms for locomotion and manipulation.

Passive Leg Raise: Feasibility and Safety of the Maneuver in Patients With Undifferentiated Shock

Journal of Intensive Care Medicine, 2018
Purpose: Passive leg raise (PLR), in combination with technologies capable of capturing stroke volume changes, has been widely adopted in the management of shock. However, dedicated evaluation of safety, feasibility, and receptiveness of patients and nursing staff to PLR maneuver is missing.

Autonomous Charging and Battery Swapping for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles: A Review

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This review evaluates major autonomous charging and battery swapping methods for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) against a single question: how close each is to sustained unattended operation. Rather than ranking them by charging performance, it identifies the limitation that most restricts each method, and briefly outlines the supporting technologies ...

Purely Mechanical Muscle Length Feedback Enables Embodied Reflexive Control in Musculoskeletal Robots

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
For musculoskeletal robots, this study proposes a purely mechanical reflex module. Specifically, this module implements a length feedback mechanism without electronics, enabling autonomous contraction of an artificial muscle once its length exceeds a threshold.

Use of speckle-tracking strain in preload-dependent patients, need for cautious interpretation!

Annals of Intensive Care, 2018
Background In critical patients, left ventricular ejection fraction and fractional shortening are used to reflect left ventricular systolic function. An emerging technique, two-dimensional-strain echocardiography, allows assessment of the left ventricle ...

The psychosocial toll of Dublin III on asylum seekers in the Netherlands

American Journal of Community Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract The Dublin III Regulation determines which EU Member State is responsible for examining asylum claims, but its implementation carries significant consequences for those subjected to it. This study examines how Dublin III, as implemented in the Netherlands, affects asylum seekers' psychosocial wellbeing using Silove′s Adaptation and Development
