Results of high-order direct numerical simulations are summarized for the evolution of crossflow disturbances in incompressible wing-generic boundary-layers with suction at the wall. The concept of smart suction, an adapted combination of the upstream-flow-deformation (UFD) technique and suction, is presented for laminar flow control. In the UFD technique, relatively tightly spaced, useful cros...

Although immediate postmastectomy breast reconstruction is favored over delayed reconstruction, it remains associated with high complication rates. Potential complications include seroma formation, dehiscence, infection, and tissue necrosis along incision edges. Closed incision negative pressure therapy (ciNPT; Prevena Incision Management System, KCI, an Acelity company, San Antonio, Tex.) has ...

INTRODUCTION We compared the efficacy of Karl Storz CMAC Tip™ with inline suction to CMAC with traditional suction device in cadaveric models simulating difficult airways, using media mimicking pulmonary edema and vomit. METHODS This was a prospective, cohort study in which we invited emergency medicine faculty and residents to participate. Each participant intubated 2 cadavers (one with simu...

BACKGROUND Three kinds of conditions should be considered to reduce free hemoglobin production using an autologous cell salvage device. They are the negative suction pressure, the size of suction tip, and the air contact during suction. We want to examine which condition is the most important factor to produce free hemoglobin. METHODS One pack of red blood cell and one pack of fresh frozen pl...
