The document discusses a study on automatically recognizing the phases of a surgery using sensors. Researchers studied clinician behaviors, tools, and zones in surgeries to determine important parameters to track. These included clinician and patient locations, object locations, and object use. Sensors were used to track this data during simulated surgeries. Decision trees were able to accurately classify phases using the sensor data, and analysis found that location sensors were most significant. The study demonstrated feasibility of automatic phase recognition and provided insights on sensor design for further research.

Ultrasonography

AJAZ KHAN

Ultrasonography uses high-frequency sound waves and a transducer probe to produce images of the inside of the body. It is widely used due to its availability, speed, low cost, and the fact that it does not use radiation. Ultrasound can be used to evaluate symptoms, guide procedures like biopsies, and examine internal organs. It is commonly used in obstetrics to assess pregnancies and in gynecology to examine reproductive organs. The procedure involves applying gel and moving a transducer probe over the body to obtain images, which are displayed on a machine with components like a transducer, CPU, and display. Benefits include being non-invasive and providing real-time images, while limitations include

A sonographer uses ultrasound imaging equipment to produce diagnostic images and scans of a patient's anatomy to assist physicians in diagnosis; their duties include preparing patients and equipment, performing scans, analyzing results, and communicating findings to doctors; successful sonographers require strong technical, interpersonal, and physical skills to accurately operate machinery and obtain quality images.

Diagnostic test in neurological disorder

RakhiYadav53

A diagnostic test is performed to aid in the diagnosis of neurological disorders. This document discusses various diagnostic tests for neurological disorders including neurological examination, CT scan, PET scan, evoked potential studies, transcranial Doppler, cerebral spinal fluid analysis, biopsy, and cerebral angiography. It also covers the nursing management aspects for these diagnostic tests such as pre-procedure, during procedure, and post-procedure care. Brain biopsy is often used as a last resort diagnostic for rapidly deteriorating neurological conditions or dementia, and this analysis found it to have a high diagnostic sensitivity to identify the underlying cause.

Diagnostic test in neurological disorder and it's nursing management

RakhiYadav53

A diagnostic test is performed to aid in the diagnosis of neurological disorders. There are non-invasive tests like neurological examination, CT scan, PET scan, and evoked potential studies. Invasive tests include cerebral angiography, cerebrospinal fluid analysis, and brain biopsy. Obtaining brain biopsy specimens is often the last diagnostic resort for patients with rapidly deteriorating neurological conditions to determine the cause. A review of brain biopsies performed between 1993-2002 found they provided a diagnosis in many cases and helped identify features that could enable earlier diagnosis in the future.

Thesis section: Current status of quantitative EGG...Professor Yasser Metwally

Professor Yasser Metwally

Ultrasound uses high-frequency sound waves to produce images of the inside of the body. It can be used to examine many organs and tissues, as well as to guide needle biopsies. Ultrasound works by sending sound waves into the body with a transducer and measuring the echoes produced when they bounce off tissues and organs. Different echo patterns allow the visualization of both structure and movement within the body in real-time. While it provides many advantages like being non-invasive and having no known health risks, ultrasound has limitations such as poor penetration of bone or air and operator dependence.

1. This document describes a study protocol to evaluate if pre-procedural ultrasound of the lumbar spine can improve the procedural skill of performing subarachnoid blocks. 2. The study aims to compare outcomes like success on the first needle pass, number of needle passes, time taken between groups who receive pre-procedure ultrasound versus those who do not. 3. A review of previous literature found that ultrasound can help identify anatomy like the posterior longitudinal ligament that indicates ease of dural puncture, and may help predict difficult procedures. Simulation training and deliberate practice was also found to improve residents' skills in performing subarachnoid blocks.

Ultrasound And Regional Anesthesia Feb 2009

jimsparrow1

This summary reviews the key points from a document about ultrasound and regional anesthesia: 1. Ultrasound guidance for regional nerve blocks may provide benefits like faster block performance, fewer needle passes, and faster onset of blockade compared to other techniques. 2. Literature reviews found no differences in efficacy or safety between ultrasound guidance and alternative techniques for nerve blocks. However, ultrasound may allow for reduced local anesthetic volumes. 3. While no evidence shows ultrasound is safer, no studies found other techniques to be superior either. Overall, ultrasound guidance seems to provide certain advantages over other methods without compromising efficacy or safety.

Ultrasound uses high-frequency sound waves to produce images of internal organs. It has multiple medical uses and benefits such as being noninvasive, avoiding radiation exposure, and providing real-time imaging. Common uses include examining fetuses during pregnancy and the heart, lungs, digestive system, eyes, and other organs. Ultrasound scanners consist of a transducer probe, computer system, and display screen. The transducer sends sound waves that bounce off tissues to create images. Doppler ultrasound evaluates blood flow velocity. Advances have improved image quality and new techniques like 3D and contrast-enhanced ultrasound. The main risks are minimal heating effects, and performance can be limited by bone, gas, or body type.

Facilitating Trunk Endurance Assessment by means of Mobile Health Technologies

Oresti Banos

Trunk endurance tests are widely used in physical medicine to assess the muscle status of people affected by low back pain. Nevertheless, traditional evaluation procedures suffer from practical limitations, which can lead to potential misdiagnoses. This work presents mDurance, a novel mobile health system aimed at supporting specialists in the functional assessment of trunk endurance by using wearable and mobile devices. The system makes use of a wearable inertial sensor to track the patient trunk posture, while portable electromyography sensors are employed to seamlessly measure the electrical activity produced by the trunk muscles. The information registered by the sensors is processed and managed by a mobile application that facilitates the expert normal routine, while reducing the impact of human errors and expediting the analysis of the test results. The reliability and usability of mDurance is proved through a case study, thus demonstrating its potential interest for regular physical therapy routines.

This study evaluated the use of the Anatomage Table, a 3D virtual reality tool, to teach cerebrovascular anatomy to neurology residents. Five residents completed pre- and post-tests on cerebrovascular structure identification before and after traditional textbook-based teaching and hands-on use of the Anatomage Table. Test scores improved significantly from a average of 32% to 88% after using the virtual reality tool. A post-survey found that residents strongly agreed that the Anatomage Table enhanced their ability to identify cerebrovascular structures in 3D. The results suggest that interactive 3D virtual reality tools can effectively complement traditional teaching methods for neuroanatomy.

Ultrasound uses high frequency sound waves to create images of the inside of the body. It works by sending sound waves into the body which bounce off organs and tissues and are detected by the ultrasound machine. The time it takes for the echo to return and the speed of sound in the body are used to create an image. Ultrasound has several medical uses such as scanning babies in the womb, breaking up kidney stones, and physiotherapy. It is safer than x-rays as it does not use ionizing radiation.

X-RAY BASICS

ANESTHESIA FOR MRI AND CT SCANs suite room

ZIKRULLAH MALLICK

This document discusses anesthesia considerations for MRI and CT scans. It notes that sedation or anesthesia is often required for infants, uncooperative children, patients with movement or psychological disorders, and critically ill patients. The main challenges include using MRI-compatible monitoring equipment, limited access to patients, and treating medical emergencies safely outside of the scanner. Commonly used sedative agents include oral chloral hydrate, midazolam, and propofol administered with monitoring of ventilation.

Mirror Therapy

iosrjce

This document discusses mirror therapy, a technique used to treat phantom limb pain and other neurological conditions. It involves placing an affected limb behind a mirror so the patient sees the reflection of their unaffected limb instead. This creates an illusion of movement that can retrain the brain. The document covers the history and principles of mirror therapy, how it is performed, evidence of its effectiveness alone and as part of graded motor imagery for various conditions like stroke, and provides references for further information. In summary, mirror therapy uses visual feedback to trick the brain into perceiving movement of an affected limb to potentially reduce pain, though more research is still needed on its effectiveness.

Technological Ecosystems for Enhancing Multiculturality

This study analyzes the use of social networks like Facebook and Twitter by two major Spanish radio stations, Cadena SER and COPE, to promote their on-demand programming content. The study uses quantitative methods to analyze the number of followers and level of interaction for selected radio programs on each network's social media accounts. The results show that Twitter tends to have more impact than Facebook. The most followed COPE programs are about football on Facebook and cycling on Twitter, while the most followed SER programs are about football on Facebook and basketball on Twitter. In general, radio programs' use of social networks is heterogeneous, but social media can be a useful promotional tool, though not all programs maximize this potential.

Specifics of multimedia texts in the context of social networks media aesthetics

Technological Ecosystems for Enhancing Multiculturality

This document discusses multimedia texts in social networks and media aesthetics. It begins by noting that 97 million people in Russia use VKontakte each month. New media is changing how mass communication works by forming media aesthetics - both how aesthetic values are interpreted in media culture and how communication is constructed using multimedia. Multimedia texts on social networks combine different sign systems like text, pictures, audio and video. Users learn to communicate and create complex multimedia texts through practices like language play, precedents, irony and collages. A case study analyzed two news messages on VKontakte about an expedition, finding the multimedia one was more engaging and interactive for users. The conclusion is that multimedia texts are native to media aesthetics and social

Technological Ecosystems for Enhancing Multiculturality

The document summarizes an experimental study that tested the effects of direct online political communication on civic participation in Spain. It describes a 2x2 experiment that manipulated levels of conflict and interactivity in online political messages. Results showed that highly interactive messages had a greater impact on attention to elections when conflict was high versus low. Additionally, political interest mediated the relationship between interactivity and civic engagement. However, levels of conflict did not significantly influence political interest or civic participation. The study partly supported the hypothesis that political interest moderates effects of online communication on participation.

Technological Ecosystems for Enhancing Multiculturality

This document proposes a tag-based browsing system for digital collections that uses inverted indexes and a browsing cache to improve performance. Tags representing element-value pairs are used to filter resources. A browsing cache stores browsing states like filtered resources and selectable tags to speed up navigating when tag filters change. Preliminary experiments show the cache can substantially improve browsing speed over an uncached system using just inverted indexes, though with increased memory usage. Future work aims to integrate browsing automata and links between resources.
