Foot length, an accurate predictor of nasotracheal tube length in neonates.
BACKGROUND Existing guidelines for optimal positioning of endotracheal tubes in neonates are based on scanty data and relate to measurements that are either non-linear or poorly reproducible in sick infants. Foot length can be measured simply and rapidly and is related to a number of external body measurements. OBJECTIVES To evaluate the relation of foot length to nasotracheal length in direc...

The Prematometer is a new instrument for the accurate measurement of the length of small neonates inside incubators. It is capable of giving precise results.
متن کاملStented segment length as an independent predictor of restenosis.
OBJECTIVES We sought to evaluate the relation between stented segment length and restenosis. BACKGROUND Multiple or long coronary stents are now being implanted in long lesions or in tandem lesions. A longer stented segment might result in a higher probability of restenosis. However, there is little information available on the relation between stented segment length and restenosis. METHODS...

متن کاملNonequilibrium tube length fluctuations of entangled polymers
We investigate the nonequilibrium tube length fluctuations during the relaxation of an initially stretched, entangled polymer chain. The time-dependent variance σ 2 of the tube length follows in the early-time regime a simple universal power law σ 2 = A √ t originating in the diffusive motion of the polymer segments. The amplitude A is calculated analytically both from standard reptation theory...
