Laser monitoring of chest wall displacement.
We developed a prototype laser monitor, consisting of a single laser sensor, to observe chest wall displacement during respiration. With this monitor, respiratory waveforms are expressed as an anterioposterior motion of the chest wall. The purpose of this study was to examine the characteristics and performance of this prototype. Performance was assessed: 1) under static conditions; 2) using a ...
متن کاملNocturnal asthma monitoring by chest wall electromyography.
RATIONALE Patients with suboptimal asthma control often have nocturnal symptoms which wake them, causing sleep fragmentation. OBJECTIVES It was hypothesised that symptomatic patients were more accurately identified by measuring respiratory effort using chest wall electromyography than by pulmonary function testing. METHODS Nocturnal electrical activity of the parasternal intercostal muscles...
متن کاملPrimary Hydatid Disease of the Chest Wall Presenting as a Chest Wall Tumor
Hydatid cyst is a parasitic disease that is endemic in Mediterranean areas, South America, North Africa, Australia, and Iran. Although the liver and lung are the most common involved organs, but the other organs in human body also can be involved by hydatid cyst. Chest wall involvement by hydatid cyst is a rare condition, which may be misdiagnosed as chest wall tumor in the endemic areas. Herei...
متن کامل[Chest wall reconstruction after resection of chest wall tumors].
Between 1994 and 2012, chest wall resection and reconstruction were performed 15 patients (16 cases) with primary chest wall tumors, metastatic tumors. and chest wall recurrence of breast carcinoma. In all the patients, reconstruction of the chest wall was performed using layers of polypropylene Marlex mesh sheets. In 9 patients, only Marlex mesh sheets were used. The post-operative course was ...
متن کاملA Wireless Laser Displacement Sensor Node for Structural Health Monitoring
This study describes a wireless laser displacement sensor node that measures displacement as a representative damage index for structural health monitoring (SHM). The proposed measurement system consists of a laser displacement sensor (LDS) and a customized wireless sensor node. Wireless communication is enabled by a sensor node that consists of a sensor module, a code division multiple access ...
