The immediate objective of this research project is to measure the mechanics of laryngoscopy‚ so that an advanced training mannequin can be developed. This summer an instrumented laryngoscope has been developed which uses a 6-axis force/torque sensor and a magnetic position/orientation sensor to quantify the interactions

Asthma Asthma is a respiratory disease. Asthma has a high reactivity of the bronchial tubes to various stimuli and that reaction blocks air flow by narrowing and obstructing the trachea and lungs. (Woollbert‚ Robert‚ 1996) This causes difficulty breathing‚ and while it’s normally temporary and reversible it can still be life threatening. Normally a person with Asthma has triggers. There are two main sections triggers fall under‚ a viral illness or an allergy. A viral illness is

WHAT IS FLUID MECHANICS ? FLUIED: Any thing whose particles can move easily from one place to another that means shape can be easily changed upon the application of negligible force. MECHANICS: Study of response of bodies upon the application of force. FLUID MECHANICS : Fluid mechanics may be defined as the branch of engineering science which deal with behavior of fluids under the condition of rest and

Restorative II Respiratory Case Study 1. Doctor’s orders for Corny would include activity levels‚ pharmacologic interventions‚ lab work‚ diet modification‚ strict intake and output measurements and respiratory therapy. The activity level of Corny should be very minimal at first and then gradually increase to a level that is acceptable for Corny. Chronic fatigue often accompanies COPD‚ especially in the acute phase. Corny will need assistance with activities of daily living such as eating

Today‚ I was with respiratory therapy for a second time. This time I was with Amy G.‚ who is a registered respiratory therapist at Deaconess. Amy was working on the 4800 unit today‚ which is the trauma intensive care unit. This intensive care unit is the largest at Deaconess Midtown Hospital. In the 4800 unit‚ there is an office space dedicated to respiratory therapy. In this room‚ there are two computers for charting and storage for equipment such as ventilators. Amy started her one o’clock rounds

Respiratory problem are often the case in newborns. It accounts for nearly half of neonatal deaths. Research by Kumar & Bhat (1996‚ p.93) states that Respiratory Depression (RD) is a common neonatal problem that generally occurs in preterm infants due to surfactant deficiency which relates to antenatal history of immature lung development and term infants of diabetic mothers. To describe some of the common diagnosis associated with RD are: Transient Tachypnea of the newborn (TTNB) was found
