Simultaneous recording of urethral pressure and cross sectional area profile.
A new technique for simultaneously recording urethral closure pressure and cross sectional area profile is described. The cross sectional area of the urethra could be measured using the field gradient principle. The procedure was performed readily in male patients and the recordings can be graphically presented during measurement. A high degree of reproducibility using this method was obtained....
متن کاملMeasurement of pharyngeal cross-sectional area by finite element analysis.
A noninvasive measurement of pharyngeal cross-sectional area (CSA) during sleep would be advantageous for research studies. We hypothesized that CSA could be calculated from the measured pharyngeal pressure and flow by finite element analysis (FEA). The retropalatal airway was visualized by using a fiber-optic scope to obtain the measured CSA (mCSA). Flow was measured with a pneumotachometer, a...
متن کاملEffect of REM sleep on retroglossal cross-sectional area and compliance in normal subjects.
It has been proposed that the upper airway compliance should be highest during rapid eye movement (REM) sleep. Evidence suggests that the increased compliance is secondary to an increased retroglossal compliance. To test this hypothesis, we examined the effect of sleep stage on the relationship of retroglossal cross-sectional area (CSA; visualized with a fiber-optic scope) to pharyngeal pressur...
متن کاملCross-sectional area and volume compliance of porcine left coronary arteries.
We have determined the cross-sectional area (CSA) compliance of the first several generations of pig coronary arteries and the volume compliance of the coronary arterial tree (vessels >0.5 mm in diameter) using a videodensitometric technique. The coronary arteries of four KCl-arrested maximally vasodilated pig hearts were perfused with iodine and 3% Cab-O-Sil. Because Cab-O-Sil occludes small a...
متن کاملMeasurement of number and cross-sectional area of basal cell pseudopodia: a new morphometric method
A method of morphometric quantitative of the number of pseudopodia per individual basal cell and the ratio of the total cross-sectional area of the pseudopodia to the base area of the basal cell, using the transmission electron microscope, was developed. The diameters and areas of the bases of basal cells and the pseudopodia were also obtained. The number of pseudopodia per basal cell (N) and t...
