A simple device for monitoring neuromuscular blockade in children.
A simple instrument for measuring adductor pollicis tension in children has been devised. The thumb sensor utilizes a thin conical rubber seal obtained from a 5, 10 or 20 ml Becton Dickinson syringe. A syringe barrel of similar size, fixed at right angles to the sensor, forms a handle for the fist. The sensor is linked to a pressure transducer with non-compliant tubing. Pressure output of the s...
متن کاملMonitoring of neuromuscular function in the clinical setting.
This paper will review the basics of neurostimulation in the perioperative period. Following a brief overview of neuromuscular physiology, the mechanism of action of depolarizing and non-depolarizing relaxants will be discussed. The principles of neurostimulation will then be applied clinically when different patterns of stimulation (single twitch, train-of-four, post-tetanic twitch count, doub...
متن کاملSimple ultrafiltration apparatus.
All ultrafiltration devices have in common a semipermeable membrane and a means for creating a pressure difference across it. They differ only in the configuration of the membrane, the nature of the force used to create a pressure difference, and the ease with which the environment of the plasma can be controlled so as to simulate physiological conditions. Speed of producing ultrafiltrate provi...
متن کاملA Simple Anæsthetic Apparatus
In the apparatus about to be described I make no claim to originality in design. It has been my endeavour to find the simplest form of anaesthetic apparatus which could, with slight adaptation, be used with reliability for intra-tracheal, intra-pharyngeal, or intra-nasal induction using ether with air or oxygen. This apparatus has been in constant use for the past 33r years in certain Indian mi...
متن کاملElectromyography as a method of investigation of the functional status of the neuromuscular apparatus.
In the classical studies by N. E. Wedensky (1901 a) it has been already shown that the study of the character of the electrical potential of a muscle may enable one to solve the question of the condition of the nerve elements ensuring its functions. More than 50 years have elapsed since that time. Electromyography has won broad application in physiology as well as in the clinic. It is arso true...
