test-sitesPain-O-Meter®There are studies suggesting that fear of blood and injury is associated with less frequent self-testing; by reducing pain when measuring blood glucose the number of measurements can probably increase. The aim of this study was to investigate whether or not there were ...
as blood collection is initiated by the single push of a button. In a clinical study involving 144 participants, haemoglobin A1c measurements from device-collected samples and from venous blood samples were equivalent, and the pain associated with the device was significantly less than that associated...
Venous malformations are a disabling condition characterized by low flow and slow growth vascular deformities that can be either localized or diffused. These malformations can be associated with hemorrhage, infections, thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, chronic pain, fatigue, functional impairments, disabilities...
Due to medical procedures, preterm infants are at high risk for side effects of pain. In this regard, heel lancing for capillary blood sampling is a common painful procedure. The present study was conducted to assess the effectiveness of a simulated intrauterine sound on behavioral and physiologica...
14 Secondary to this inflammation and to the presence of the neutrophils, there is a loss in the integrity of the basement membrane of the alveolocapillary union with disruption and extravasation of red blood cells into the alveolar spaces. The presence of hemosiderophages in the bronchoalveolar ...
The degree of macrophage accumulation correlates with blood glucose and hemoglobin A1c level, the degree of proteinuria, as well as with hypertrophy and fibrosis in the glomerulus and interstitium. It is noteworthy that the severity of kidney dysfunction is best correlated with the interstitial ...
pain. The capillary blood sampling procedure can influence the quality of the sample as well as the accuracy of test results, highlighting the need for immediate, widespread standardization. A recent nationwide survey of policies and practices related to capillary blood sampling in medical laboratories...
Obesity and an enhanced insulin response to oral glucose tolerance test are associated with therapy resistance in hypertension. In order to explore this as... Isaksson,Cederholm,Jansson,... - 《Blood Pressure》 被引量: 76发表: 1993年
Active nerve cells release vasodilators that increase their energy supply by dilating local blood vessels, a mechanism termed neurovascular coupling and the basis of BOLD functional neuroimaging signals. Here, we reveal a mechanism for cerebral blood flo
However, some of these in vivo enzymes, such as kallikrein, also can cause pain, for example. Therefore, it is strongly desirable to develop a method which is effective to increase blood flow and that is safe and easy to use. It has been previously reported that arginine induces ...
