Abstract Hepatopulmonary syndrome (HPS) is associated with increased waitlist mortality in liver transplantation (LT) candidates. Children with HPS are granted Model for End‐Stage Liver Disease (MELD)/Pediatric End‐Stage Liver Disease (PELD) exception points for waitlist prioritization in the United States based on criterion developed for adults.

Evaluation of Pulse Oximetry in the Early Detection of Congenital Heart Diseases in Newborns [PDF]
Background: Congenital heart diseases, which are asymptomatic at birth, are the most important causes of infant mortality. This study aimed to evaluate the role of pulse oximetry in the early detection of congenital heart diseases among newborns.Methods:

Investigation of pulse oximeter failure rates during artificial hypoperfusion utilising a custom made multimode pulse oximetery sensor [PDF]
Pulse oximetry utilises the technique of photople-thysmography (PPG) to estimate arterial oxygen saturation values (SpO2). In poorly perfused tissues, SpO2 readings may be compromised due to the poor quality of the PPG signals.

Pulse oximetry in the oesophagus [PDF]
Pulse oximetry has been one of the most significant technological advances in clinical monitoring in the last two decades. Pulse oximetry is a non-invasive photometric technique that provides information about the arterial blood oxygen saturation (SpO(2))

Green textile dyeing process by using natural dyes: a review [PDF]
In the textile industry, up to 200,000 tons of dyes are lost to effluents every year during the dyeing and finishing operations, due to the inefficiency of the dyeing process. Today, the textile industry used average six hundred dyes and chemical for the

Pulse oximetry — physiological considerations [PDF]
Fetal well-being depends on the level of oxygenation in vital organs such as the heart and brain. In this review, we discuss the physiological parameters which underlie the use of pulse oximetry to evaluate fetal conditions intrapartum. Whilst the measurement of haemoglobin oxygen saturation (SaO2) depends on partial pressure of oxygen (PO2), the ...
