THE TOURNIQUET IN SURGERY [PDF]
The history of surgery is to a large extent written around the record of its technical advances. A pneumatic tourniquet is a humble instrument, when compared with many of the more complicated mechanical devices in the modern operation theatre. Nevertheless, it has played a significant role in making possible the precise operations of present-day ...

Geometry-Encoded Soft Strain Sensing via Liquid-Metal Transmission Lines. [PDF]
This study presents a liquid‐metal transmission‐line strain sensor that achieves intrinsic decoupling by encoding axial elongation into propagation delay. The time‐domain readout remains stable under complex off‐axis. This enables reliable, repeatable, real‐time elongation measurement in dynamic, multiaxial loading environments for wearable electronics,

Impact of tourniquet during knee arthroplasty: a bayesian network meta-analysis of peri-operative outcomes. [PDF]
INTRODUCTION: The role of tourniquet during knee arthroplasty is controversial. The present study compares various tourniquet protocols using a Bayesian network meta-analysis of peri-operative data.

Background Tourniquet is currently widely used in total knee arthroplasty to reduce intraoperative blood loss. The academic view of tourniquet application in TKA is now in dispute. Some scholars argue that tourniquet may cause quadriceps injury and bring

Tourniquets are commonly used in penile surgery to achieve a bloodless operating field or produce artificial erections intraoperatively. Several techniques have been described, but there is a paucity of data and a lack of guidelines to direct their safe use.

Effect of physical exercise on pain thresholds and plasma beta-endorphins in patients with silent and symptomatic myocardial ischaemia [PDF]
In a double-blind study, eight patients with symptomatic myocardial ischaemia and nine with asymptomatic myocardial ischaemia were compared during physical exercise under naloxone (6 mg i.v.) or placebo. Plasma beta-endorphin, cortisol and catecholamines
