모바일 헬스케어 환경에서는 정확한 생체 정보를 실시간으로 측정하는 것과 함께, 저전력의 장치를 설계하는 것이 무엇보다 중요한 관건이다. 본 논문에서는 저전력 특성을 갖는 피에조 필름 센서(PFS)를 이용하여 손목의 요골 동맥으로부터 심장의 동기 신호인 맥파를 측정하는 방법을 제안하였다. 생체 신호처리에 있어서 문제점은 동잡음의 존재이다. 본 연구에서는 맥파 신호의 동잡음을 제거하기 위해서 일반적으로 적용되는 참조신호를 이용한 적응 필터링 외에 펄스 신호의 유사 주기성을 이용한 주기 이동 평균 필터 방법을 추가로 적용하였다. 시물레이션 및 실험 결과 PFS 신호에 유사 주기성을 이용함으로써 적응 필터 이후에도 존재하는 동잡음을 완벽히 제거할 수 있음을 확인 하였다.
Introduction: Surgical treatment of subclavian artery (SA) injury is challenging because approaching the lesion directly and clamping the proximal artery is difficult. This can be overcome by using an endovascular technique. Case 1: A 37-year-old male was drawn into the concrete mixer truck. He had a right SA injury with multiple traumatic injuries: an open fracture of the right leg with posterior tibial artery (PTA) injury, a right hemothorax, and fractures of the clavicle, scapula, ribs, cervical spine and nasal bone. The injury severity score (ISS) was 27. Computed tomography (CT) showed a 30-mm-length thrombotic occlusion in the right SA, which was 15 mm distal to the vertebral artery (VA). A self-expandable stent(
Objectives : In the study on the waveform analysis of radial artery pulse diagnosis, we need to establish fundamentals of contemporary pulse diagnosis research. To achieve certain experimental basis on traditional pulse diagnosis, we have to research the differences of pulse waveform according to pressure (in 5 level) and position (Chon, Gwan, Cheok in radial artery). As a first step, in present thesis, we tried to find the differences of pulse waveform according to pressure. Methods and Results : In this research, we analyzed seven parameters of the waveform at five levels of pressure. The parameters are E(so called 'energy', a representative of pulse strength), h1(height of percussion wave) and h2(height of subincisura). The results were as follows. 1. When we analyzed the change of the waveform according to pressure in the left Gwan, E, hl, h2 and A differed between 1st and 2nd grade, between 1st and 3rd grade, between 1st and 4th grade, between 1st and 5th grade, between 2nd and 3rd grade, between 2nd and 5th grade, between 3rd and 5th grade and between 4th and 5th grade in 95% confidence interval. 2. And t2, t4 differed between 1st and 2nd grade, between 1st and 5th grade, between 2nd and 4th grade, between 2nd and 4th grade, between 2nd and 5th grade, between 3rd and 4th grade, between 3rd and 5th grade and between 4th and 5th grade in 95% confidence interval. 3. W differed between 1st and 3rd grade, between 1st and 4th grade, between 2nd and 3rd grade, between 2nd and 4th grade, between 2nd and 5th grade, between 3rd and 4th grade, between 3rd and 5th grade, and between 4th and 5th grade in 95% confidence interval. 4. And h2/h1 differed between 1st and 4th grade, between 1st and 5th grade, between 2nd and 4th grade, between 2nd and 5th grade, between 3rd and 4th grade & between 3rd and 5th grade in 95% confidence interval. 5. There were differences between 1st and 2nd grade & between 2nd and 5th grade in the case of t4/t2 in 95% confidence interval. And there were differences between 1st and 5th grade, between 3rd and 4th grade, between 3rd and 5th grade & between 4th and 5th grade in the case of W/A in 95% confidence interval. And were differences between 1st and 2nd grade, between 2nd and 3rd grade, between 2nd and 4th grade, between 3rd and 4th grade, between 3rd and 5th grade & between 4th and 5th grade in the case of A/E in 95% confidence interval. Conclusions : As mentioned above, we conclude that the waveform analysis according to five grade pressure in the left Gwan shows the difference of waveform in each grade pressure.
Background and Purpose: Feeling the pulse is based on the pulse condition and alteration to observe the condition of the human body's health and by using a healthy person's pulse as a standard we are able to analyze the patient's pulse to find the attacked channel and collateral, viscera and bowels and understand the pathology such as diseases caused by exogenous evil, disorder of internal organs, and seven modes of emotions. Observing the color and shade of the patient's face, listening carefully to the sound of the patient, and feeling the pulse are methods in accordance with Su Wen 'Plain Questions', 'The Classic on Difficulty' (5th century B.C. Bianque), 'The Classic of Sphymology' (280 A.D. Wang Xi), 'Pulse Formulas' (1189 A.D. Cui Jiayan), and is systematically edited for those who have started studying to easily reach the profound state. Therefore, 'The Elementary Course for Medicine' has been used from ancient times as the textbook for diagnostics. Methods: In this Study, we will inspect commonly used pulse feeling methods, the inch, bar, cubit thesis, the viscera and bowels thesis from The Elementary Course for Medicine and inquire the difference of the text from 'Plain Questions of Huangdi's Internal Classic', 'Treatise on Febrile Diseases', 'Classic on Difficulty'. Results and Conclusion: 1. In 'The Elementary Course for Medicine' the site of the wrist along the pulsation of the radial artery is divided into inch, bar, cubit and has defined the inch, bar, cubit crossways. 2. In 'The Elementary Course of Medicine' the inch, bar, cubit for the left hand and right hand is subjected to each viscera and bowel. By assigning the left hand's inch, bar, cubit to the cardial orb, the hepatic orb, the renal orb, and the right hand's inch, bar, cubit to the pulmonic orb, the splenic orb, the vital gate it has been able to feel the pulse for each viscera and bowel by using the interpromoting and interacting relation of the five evolutive phases.
혈류는 신체 안에서 일정한 속도와 압력으로 흘러야하기 때문에 혈류속도는 개개인의 건강상태를 나타내주는 측정 가능한 주요지시자이다. 최근, 혈류속도는 고가의 초음파기기를 이용하여 측정되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 고가의 장비 없이 혈류속도를 예측하고자 3개의 센서(ECG, PPG, 맥진센서)를 이용한 측정치를 독립변수로 하는 회귀모델을 구축하였다. 실험에 참여한 피검자는 심장질환에 의한 동맥경화 증상으로 병원에 입원한 환자를 대상으로 하였다. 피검자들의 나이는 55-90 세이며, 남성은 7명, 여성은 4명으로 총 11명이다. 실험에서 독립변수와 초음파기기로 측정한 혈류속도 사이의 상관성과 유의확률을 비교하여 혈류속도의 예측 가능성이 높은 회귀모델을 도출하였으며, 1개의 센서를 이용한 단일 독립변수를 적용하는 경우보다 두 개 이상의 독립변수를 적용하는 경우에서 정확한 혈류속도 예측이 가능함을 확인하였다.
The wall shear stress in the vicinity of end-to end anastomoses under steady flow conditions was measured using a flush-mounted hot-film anemometer(FMHFA) probe. The experimental measurements were in good agreement with numerical results except in flow with low Reynolds numbers. The wall shear stress increased proximal to the anastomosis in flow from the Penrose tubing (simulating an artery) to the PTFE: graft. In flow from the PTFE graft to the Penrose tubing, low wall shear stress was observed distal to the anastomosis. Abnormal distributions of wall shear stress in the vicinity of the anastomosis, resulting from the compliance mismatch between the graft and the host artery, might be an important factor of ANFH formation and the graft failure. The present study suggests a correlation between regions of the low wall shear stress and the development of anastomotic neointimal fibrous hyperplasia(ANPH) in end-to-end anastomoses. 30523 T00401030523 ^x Air pressure decay(APD) rate and ultrafiltration rate(UFR) tests were performed on new and saline rinsed dialyzers as well as those roused in patients several times. C-DAK 4000 (Cordis Dow) and CF IS-11 (Baxter Travenol) reused dialyzers obtained from the dialysis clinic were used in the present study. The new dialyzers exhibited a relatively flat APD, whereas saline rinsed and reused dialyzers showed considerable amount of decay. C-DAH dialyzers had a larger APD(11.70

Engineers have developed new instruments that aid in diagnosis and therapy Ultrasonic imaging has provided a nondamaging method of imaging internal organs. A complex transducer emits ultrasonic waves at many angles and reconstructs a map of internal anatomy and also velocities of blood in vessels. Fast computed tomography permits reconstruction of the 3-dimensional anatomy and perfusion of the heart at 20-Hz rates. Positron emission tomography uses certain isotopes that produce positrons that react with electrons to simultaneously emit two gamma rays in opposite directions. It locates the region of origin by using a ring of discrete scintillation detectors, each in electronic coincidence with an opposing detector. In magnetic resonance imaging, the patient is placed in a very strong magnetic field. The precessing of the hydrogen atoms is perturbed by an interrogating field to yield two-dimensional images of soft tissue having exceptional clarity. As an alternative to radiology image processing, film archiving, and retrieval, picture archiving and communication systems (PACS) are being implemented. Images from computed radiography, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), nuclear medicine, and ultrasound are digitized, transmitted, and stored in computers for retrieval at distributed work stations. In electrical impedance tomography, electrodes are placed around the thorax. 50-kHz current is injected between two electrodes and voltages are measured on all other electrodes. A computer processes the data to yield an image of the resistivity of a 2-dimensional slice of the thorax. During fetal monitoring, a corkscrew electrode is screwed into the fetal scalp to measure the fetal electrocardiogram. Correlations with uterine contractions yield information on the status of the fetus during delivery To measure cardiac output by thermodilution, cold saline is injected into the right atrium. A thermistor in the right pulmonary artery yields temperature measurements, from which we can calculate cardiac output. In impedance cardiography, we measure the changes in electrical impedance as the heart ejects blood into the arteries. Motion artifacts are large, so signal averaging is useful during monitoring. An intraarterial blood gas monitoring system permits monitoring in real time. Light is sent down optical fibers inserted into the radial artery, where it is absorbed by dyes, which reemit the light at a different wavelength. The emitted light travels up optical fibers where an external instrument determines O2, CO2, and pH. Therapeutic devices include the electrosurgical unit. A high-frequency electric arc is drawn between the knife and the tissue. The arc cuts and the heat coagulates, thus preventing blood loss. Hyperthermia has demonstrated antitumor effects in patients in whom all conventional modes of therapy have failed. Methods of raising tumor temperature include focused ultrasound, radio-frequency power through needles, or microwaves. When the heart stops pumping, we use the defibrillator to restore normal pumping. A brief, high-current pulse through the heart synchronizes all cardiac fibers to restore normal rhythm. When the cardiac rhythm is too slow, we implant the cardiac pacemaker. An electrode within the heart stimulates the cardiac muscle to contract at the normal rate. When the cardiac valves are narrowed or leak, we implant an artificial valve. Silicone rubber and Teflon are used for biocompatibility. Artificial hearts powered by pneumatic hoses have been implanted in humans. However, the quality of life gradually degrades, and death ensues. When kidney stones develop, lithotripsy is used. A spark creates a pressure wave, which is focused on the stone and fragments it. The pieces pass out normally. When kidneys fail, the blood is cleansed during hemodialysis. Urea passes through a porous membrane to a dialysate bath to lower its concentration in the blood. The blind are able to read by scanning the Optacon with their fingertips. A camera scans letters and converts them to an array of vibrating pins. The deaf are able to hear using a cochlear implant. A microphone detects sound and divides it into frequency bands. 22 electrodes within the cochlea stimulate the acoustic the acoustic nerve to provide sound patterns. For those who have lost muscle function in the limbs, researchers are implanting electrodes to stimulate the muscle. Sensors in the legs and arms feed back signals to a computer that coordinates the stimulators to provide limb motion. For those with high spinal cord injury, a puff and sip switch can control a computer and permit the disabled person operate the computer and communicate with the outside world.
임상 간호사의 혈압측정의 정확도를 평가하고 이에 관련된 요인을 조사하기 위하여 1998년 12월 20일부터 12월 29일까지 포항시와 경주시의 4개 종합병원 간호사 276명을 대상으로 혈압측정 실태를 조사하였다. 연구자는 20개 항목의 혈압측정 지침서를 이용하여 간호사들이 가상환자를 대상으로 실제 혈압측정 하는 과정을 직접 관찰하고 정확도를 평가하였다. 혈압측정 실천정도의 준비단계에서는 6개 항목 중 '혈압측정 중에는 말을 하지 않도록 요구한다' 27.1%로 가장 낮았고 나머지 항목들의 실천률은 모두 80% 이상이었다. 측정단계에서는 10개 항목 중 '요골(또는 팔)동맥이 촉지 되지 않는 지점에서 30mmHg까지 높인다' 0%, '30-60초 정도 기다린다' 0%, '압박대의 공기 압력을 빠른 속도로 제거한다' 0.3%', '혈압계의 압력을 상완동맥이 없어지는 지점에서 약 30mmHg 정도 더 높인다' 0.7%, '혈압계상의 혈압치를 2mmHg 단위로 읽는다' 10.8%g로 아주 낮았고 나머지 5개 항목들의 실천률은 70% 이상이었다. 측정결과 기록단계에서는 4개 항목 중 '압박대의 크기를 기록한다' 0.3%, '환자의 자세(앉은 자세, 누운 자세, 선 자세)를 기록한다'는 10.8%에 불과했고 '혈압측정에 사용한 팔(오른팔, 왼팔, 양팔)과 다리를 기록한다'는 53.6%로 낮았으며 '수축기와 이완기 혈압을 기록한다'는 100%이었다. 혈압측정 실천정도와 유의한 관련성이 있는 변수들은 연령, 경력, 직위 그리고 병원근무 중 혈압 측정방법에 대한 보수교육 경험 유무 등 4개였다(p<0.01). 다중 회귀분석에서는 혈압측정 실천과 유의하게 관련된 변수는 간호사의 직위와 혈압측정에 대한 보수교육 경험 유무였다(p<0.01). 이상의 결과를 볼 때 종합병원 임상간호사의 혈압측정의 정확도는 상당히 낮았다. 따라서 이에 대한 보수교육을 시급히 실시해야 할 것으로 생각한다.
