Ecg-electrode Induced Hypopigmentation.
Skin reactions following the application of electrocardiography (ECG) electrodes have been reported in adults and children, and are postulated to result from contact with the conductive gel or adhesive used on the electrodes. Although contact dermatitis is the usual cause of such reactions, contact depigmentation or hypopigmentation may also occur. We report a case of hypopigmentation in a heal...
متن کاملA Novel Electrode for Pasteless Ecg Monitoring
A dry bracelet electrode for electrocardiographic (ECG) signal monitoring was developed and successfully tested in human volunteers. The new electrode dispenses with the usual gel application and the previous skin preparation to monitor the signal. It was fabricated from a polyethylene tereftalate (PET) polymer sheet that was coated with a thin conductive titanium nitride (TiN) layer. As the di...
متن کاملStudy of Decannulation Problems Following Tracheostomy in Quadriplegics
Commonly encountered difficulties during decannulation are tube dependency, bleeding, and mechanical problems with cuff, aspiration, pulmonary complications, tracheomalacia, scarring of the tracheostomy wound, inversion of wound margin in skin, tracheal stenosis and also migration of granulation tissue inside the trachea through the tracheostomy wound. Patients with traumatic quadriplegia follo...
