Monitoring is a routine part of emergency department (ED) care. From vital sign measurement to the provision of critical care, monitoring physiologic function provides clinicians with potentially relevant clinical information as a “snapshot” in time or in continuous fashion. In the former case, it allows for screening and triage, and in the latter, it allows for ongoing evaluation of response t...

Avian embryos are a commonly used model system for developmental studies, but monitoring of physiological parameters such as heart rate (HR) and movement in ovo poses a challenge to researchers. These are also increasingly common research objectives for ecological and embryo behavior studies in oviparous species. We therefore explored the validity of a new digital egg-monitoring system for the ...

PURPOSE OF REVIEW The review touches upon the current physiopathological concepts relating to the field of intracranial pressure (ICP) monitoring and offers an up-to-date overview of the ICP monitoring technologies and of the signal-analysis techniques relevant to clinical practice. RECENT FINDINGS Improved ICP probes, antibiotic-impregnated ventricular catheters and multimodality, computeriz...

Monitoring and treatment of intracranial pressure are extremely important procedures in the management patients with traumatic brain injury. The monitoring methods currently marketed invasive not suitable for all patients. In addition to risks offered, they available on services. This study aims describe cases five injury different severity who underwent noninvasive acute phase injury, relating...

It is important to develop a noninvasive label-free detection method to monitor dynamic phenomena in biology and medicine. Here, we utilize nanoplasmonic optical imaging as the noninvasive and label-free method in order to monitor in vitro amyloid fibrogenesis in real-time, which is considered as the primary pathological mechanism of Alzheimer's disease. Using Rayleigh scattering of gold nanopl...

Noninvasive genetic sampling is an important tool in wildlife ecology and management, typically relying on hair snaring or scat sampling techniques, but hair snaring is labor and cost intensive, and scats yield relatively low quality DNA. New approaches utilizing environmental DNA (eDNA) may provide supplementary, cost-effective tools for noninvasive genetic sampling. We tested whether eDNA fro...

We present an evaluation of a novel technique for continuous (i.e., automatic) monitoring of relative cardiac output (CO) changes by long time interval analysis of a peripheral arterial blood pressure (ABP) waveform in humans. We specifically tested the mathematical analysis technique based on existing invasive and noninvasive hemodynamic data sets. With the former data set, we compared the app...

BACKGROUND Right heart catheterization (RHC) is the gold standard for the diagnosis of pulmonary hypertension (PH) and a useful tool for monitoring PH. However, there are some disadvantages in the regular use of RHC because it is invasive. Noninvasive methods for monitoring hemodynamics are needed to manage patients with PH. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the reliability of noninvasive hem...

UNLABELLED The Vasotrac device (Medwave, Arden Hills, MN) allows noninvasive measurement of arterial blood pressure (BP) and arterial waveform. We have previously demonstrated agreement between the Vasotrac and continuous intraarterial BP monitoring in children with a stable circulation after cardiac surgery in the cardiac intensive care unit. To assess this monitor during different physiologic...
