Flat panel displays for medical monitoring systems
Flat panel displays are ideal for demanding hospital and clinic applications like vital sign monitoring and bedside administration. They take up much less space than conventional monitors (CRT based) and can be wall-mounted, cart-mounted or used on a desk stand. User friendly interface demands easy to use input device, rotary position encoders and touch screen panels offers simplicity replacing bulky keyboards. This article will present an overview about today's medical monitoring systems tendencies, describing as an example, a custom medical monitoring module developed to be integrated in an assisted ventilation system.
Jet reconstruction at high-energy lepton colliders
In this paper we study the performance in $e^+e^-$ collisions of classical $e^+e^-$ jet reconstruction algorithms, longitudinally invariant algorithms and the recently-proposed Valencia algorithm. The study includes a comparison of perturbative and non-perturbative jet energy corrections and the response under realistic background conditions. Several algorithms are benchmarked with a detailed detector simulation at $\sqrt{s}= 3$~\tev. We find that the classical $e^+e^-$ algorithms, with or without beam jets, have the best response, but are inadequate in environments with non-negligible background. The Valencia algorithm and longitudinally invariant $k_t$ algorithms have a much more robust p…
SARS-CoV-2 vaccination modelling for safe surgery to save lives: data from an international prospective cohort study
Abstract Background Preoperative SARS-CoV-2 vaccination could support safer elective surgery. Vaccine numbers are limited so this study aimed to inform their prioritization by modelling. Methods The primary outcome was the number needed to vaccinate (NNV) to prevent one COVID-19-related death in 1 year. NNVs were based on postoperative SARS-CoV-2 rates and mortality in an international cohort study (surgical patients), and community SARS-CoV-2 incidence and case fatality data (general population). NNV estimates were stratified by age (18–49, 50–69, 70 or more years) and type of surgery. Best- and worst-case scenarios were used to describe uncertainty. Results NNVs were more favourable in su…
12-month follow-up analysis of a multicenter, randomized, prospective trial in de novo liver transplant recipients (LIS2T) comparing cyclosporine microemulsion (C2 monitoring) and tacrolimus.
The LIS2T study was an open-label, multicenter study in which recipients of a primary liver transplant were randomized to cyclosporine microemulsion (CsA-ME) (Neoral) (n = 250) (monitoring of blood concentration at 2 hours postdose) C2 or tacrolimus (n = 245) (monitoring of trough drug blood level [predose]) C0 to compare efficacy and safety at 3 and 6 months and to evaluate patient status at 12 months. All patients received steroids with or without azathioprine. At 12 months, 85% of CsA-ME patients and 86% of tacrolimus patients survived with a functioning graft (P not significant). Efficacy was similar in deceased- and living-donor recipients. Significantly fewer hepatitis C–positive pati…
