  2. 1. Endothelial function during ischemia-reperfusion and effects of inhalation of nitric oxide

    Author : Lars Lindberg; Anestesiologi och intensivvård; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; chemiluminescence; capnography; monitoring; inhalation; mechanical ventilation; pulmonary hypertension; nitric oxide; EDRF; endothelium-derived relaxation factor; endothelium; organ preservation; Lung; lung transplantation; electrochemical fuel cell; Anaesthesiology; intensive care; Anestesiologi; intensivvård;

    Abstract : The vascular endothelium is an important regulatory organ in circulatory physiology and plays a central role in the response to acute inflammation and ischemia/reperfusion. Activation and dysfunction of the pulmonary vascular endothelium are closely related to clinical findings of pulmonary dysfunction. READ MORE

  4. 2. Capnodynamic determination of effective pulmonary blood flow and end expiratory lung volume : studies in children and paediatric animal models

    Author : Jacob Karlsson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : cardiac output children;

    Abstract : Dynamic capnography is a haemodynamic and respiratory monitoring technique enabling continuous cardiac output (Effective Pulmonary Blood Flow, COEPBF) and end expiratory lung volume (Effective Lung Volume, ELV) assessment in mechanically ventilated subjects. The method utilizes variations in exhaled CO2, implemented via periods of deliberate changes in the respiratory pattern. READ MORE

  5. 3. Retrieve and Classify

    Author : Markus Nilsson; Peter Funk; Isabelle Bichindaritz; Mälardalens högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Computer science; Datavetenskap; Datavetenskap;

    Abstract : Diagnoshjälp för läkareMarkus Nilsson har vid Institutionen för Datavetenskap och Elektronik (IDE) forskat fram ett beslutsstödssytem för kliniker, läkare och psykologer. Systemet använder sig av artificiell intelligens (AI) för att resonera sig fram till nya diagnoser och tolkningar av mätvärden med hjälp av tidigare erfarenheter och kunskap. READ MORE

  6. 4. Minimal volume ventilation in lung injury : With special reference to apnea and buffer treatment

    Author : Staffan Höstman; Anders Larsson; Hans Hjelmqvist; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; VILI; THAM; buffers; apneic oxygenation; respiratory acidosis; hypercapnia; low volume ventilation; mechanical ventilation; ultra-protective ventilation; Anestesiologi och intensivvård; Anaesthesiology and Intensive Care;

    Abstract : A fairly large portion of patients receiving surgical or intensive care will need mechanical ventilation at some point. The potential ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI) is thus of interest. One of the main causal factors in VILI is the cyclic energy shifts, i.e. READ MORE

  7. 5. Pulse oximetry : methodological considerations : experimental, in vitro and human investigations

    Author : Magnus Vegfors; Ola Stenqvist; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : Pulse oximeters monitor non-invasively the haemoglobin oxygen saturation. Light of two specific wavelengths, red and infrared light, is shined through a tissue, usually the finger, and the intensity of the light transmitted is measured. Oxyhaemoglobin absorbs the light differently when compared to reduced haemoglobin. READ MORE
