It is rapidly becoming the standard of care to employ the perioperative use of intermittent pneumatic compression (IPC) devices on the lower leg to prevent the development of deep venous thrombosis. There are instances when the anesthesiologist must apply a blood pressure cuff to the ankle in order to obtain a blood pressure reading. The purpose of this study is to determine the influence of IPC d...... hiện toàn bộ
Validation and Clinical Application of a First Order Step Response Equation for Nitrogen Clearance During FRC MeasurementJournal of Clinical Monitoring and Computing - Tập 22 - Trang 1-9 - 2007
Gary Choncholas, Soren Sondergaard, Erkki Heinonen
To derive a difference equation based on mass conservation and on alveolar tidal volumes for the calculation of Functional Residual Capacity. Derive an equation for the FRC from the difference equation. Furthermore, to derive and validate a step response equation as a solution of the difference equation within the framework of digital signal processing where the FRC is known a priori. A difference...... hiện toàn bộ
Effect of measurement errors on cardiac output calculated with O2 and modified CO2 Fick methodsJournal of Clinical Monitoring and Computing - Tập 11 - Trang 99-108 - 1995
C. Kees Mahutte, Michael B. Jaffe
We have investigated the effect of measurement errors on cardiac output, calculated via three different Fick methods. In method 1, the classic O2 Fick equation is expressed in terms of oxygen uptake (

), arterial pulse (Sao2) and venous oximetry (Svo2) saturations. The second method, a mod...... hiện toàn bộ
Choosing the best supraglottic airway for ophthalmic general anaesthesia: a manikin studyJournal of Clinical Monitoring and Computing - Tập 35 - Trang 443-447 - 2020
Edwin Seet, Jinbin Zhang, Joselo Macachor, Chandra M. Kumar
General anaesthesia is sometimes favoured over regional anaesthesia in ophthalmic surgery. The use of supraglottic airway (SGA) or laryngeal mask airway (LMA) as the primary airway device is increasing due to numerous advantages over tracheal intubation. Compared with 1st generation SGAs, 2nd generation SGAs have an added benefit of isolating the airway from the alimentary tract. However, the vert...... hiện toàn bộ
Comparison of the Eeg-Based SnapTM Index and the Bispectral (BisTM) Index During Sevoflurane - Nitrous Oxide AnaesthesiaJournal of Clinical Monitoring and Computing - Tập 19 - Trang 383-389 - 2006
P. Ruiz-Gimeno, M. Soro, A. Pérez-Solaz, M. Carrau, F. J. Belda, J. L. Jover, G. Aguilar
The BIS monitor (Aspect Medical Inc, Newton, USA) was the first electroencephalogram (EEG)-based monitor of the hypnotic effect reflected by a dimensionless figure ranging from 100 (awake state) to 0 (flat line EEG). Its widespread use makes it the most-studied and the best-known among same intended devices. Its algorithm processes low-frequency EEG oscillations in order to provide the Bispectral ...... hiện toàn bộ
Erroneous mass spectrometer readings caused by desflurane and sevofluraneJournal of Clinical Monitoring and Computing - Tập 11 - Trang 152-158 - 1995
Mark Abel, James B. Eisenkraft
Objective. Medical mass spectrometers are configured to detect and measure specific respiratory and anesthetic gases. Unrecognized gases entering these systems may cause erroneous readings. We determined how the Advantage 1100 (Perkin-Elmer, now Marquette Gas Systems, Milwaukee, WI) and PPG-SARA (PPG Biomedical Systems, Lenexa, KS) systems that were not configured to measure desflurane or sevoflur...... hiện toàn bộ
The present and future medicolegal importance of record keeping in anesthesia and intensive care: The case for automationJournal of Clinical Monitoring and Computing - Tập 5 - Trang 251-255 - 1989
Richard F. Gibbs
The anesthesia record is often crucial to successful defense in a meritless claim, because the adversarial role of the plaintiff's medical expert witness requires an attack on the record. Likewise the record may be pivotal in determining whether a defense should even be mounted as an alternative to an early settlement, because the failure of meaningful, supportive, or exculpatory documentation rai...... hiện toàn bộ
