Their installation is also quite complex because they have to account for mechanical hysteresis in the moving parts of the bed which can affect the precision of the weight measurements. Typically, the patient position system requires a lot less precision from the system than the scale system, but...
After drawing the curtains between us and the other patients so we could at least have the illusion of privacy, I would sometimes sit facing him on the bed, my back against the footboard, my legs alongside his, so we could hold or rub each other’s feet, which felt more intimate than ...
A clear plastic bubble was placed over the frame and the doctors inserted a narrow “stick ruler” into the holes in order to take measurements. I was then given an MRI with contrast. The doctors reviewed the scans, went into a conference room and formulated a precise treatment plan for me...
" Differential pressure-sensing devices can be used to monitor negative pressure; they can provide either periodic (noncontinuous) pressure measurements or continuous pressure monitoring. The continuous monitoring component may simply be a visible and/or audible warning signal that air pressure is low. ...
The following measurements were analyzed using one-way ANOVA followed, when appropriate (P<0.05), by Newman-Keuls post-hoc test: anatomical and cell-type expression patterns of transduced MECP2, whole body and brain weights, respiratory parameters, open field activity and time on rotarod. The fo...
