Visualising Breath
نویسندگان
چکیده
The visualising of breath using digital in-line holography is challenging due to the issues of the relative scale of the human breath in relation to the recording area of the hologram. In this collaborative project between artist Jayne Wilton and physicists Professor Peter Hobson and Dr Ivan Reid a number of approaches, including the use of spatial filtering (Hobson and Hong 1988), are being used to record the human breath.

Classic therapies revisited Mechanical ventilation : simplifying the terminology Farhad Kapadia
There is presently considerable ambiguity and confusion relating to ventilator terminology. This can be eliminated using a simple approach, visualising mechanical ventilation as an inspiratory pump, and defining trigger, limit, and cycling in this context. The trigger is the signal that starts a breath by opening the inspiratory valve, the limit is the factor which controls the way gas flows in...
متن کاملPancreatico pleural fistula: an unusual complication of chronic pancreatitis.
Pancreatico-pleural fistula secondary to chronic pancreatitis is a rare cause of pleural effusion. This case report presents a case of a middle aged female, a known case of chronic pancreatitis who presented with severe epigastric pain and progressive shortness of breath. CT and MRCP were useful in visualising the fistulous communication between the pancreas and pleural cavity. Treatment consis...
متن کاملVisualisation and Categorisation of Respiratory Mechanism Using Self Organising
In postoperative patients it is sometimes necessary to push morphine-like analgesics to their limits for pain relief. Unfortunately, this can sometimes bring a significant risk of disrupting the control of breathing, and precipitating life-threatening conditions. A possible way of monitoring patients is by studying the correlation between analgesia, airway obstruction and hypoxia. The first ste...

متن کاملDyspnoea and hypoxaemia after lung surgery: the role of interatrial right-to-left shunt.
After lung surgery, some patients complain of unexplained increased dyspnoea associated with hypoxaemia. This clinical presentation may be due to an interatrial right-to-left shunt despite normal right heart pressure. Some of these patients show postural dependency of hypoxaemia, whereas others do not. In this article, the pathogenesis and mechanisms involved in this post-surgical complication ...
