Transient bacteremia induced by toothbrushing a comparison of the Sonicare toothbrush with a conventional toothbrush.
PURPOSE Several investigations have demonstrated toothbrush-induced bacteremias. Transient bacteremias are well tolerated by healthy individuals but may increase endocarditis risk in patients with cardiac conditions. This study assessed bacteremia levels after brushing with either the Sonicare electric toothbrush or a manual toothbrush. METHODS Fifty healthy children receiving dental treatmen...
متن کاملWireless Data logger Using ZigBee
This paper illustrates environmental parameters monitoring at a remote unit based on Arduino capable of transmitting the parameters to the main unit which later processes for further environmental predictions. This also explains the practical implementation of the wireless communication protocol using ZigBee, data logging, data processing using VB.net.
متن کاملThe effect of a color-changing toothbrush with and without instruction on the duration of toothbrushing.
Introduction Toothbrush design, 1, 2 brushing method,3, 4 manipulative skills of the child, 5,6 parental involvement/brushing instruction, 8 and brushing duration9,1° are most cited as determinants of toothbrushing efficacy. Of these, Honkala11 and coworkers found that brushing duration was consistently correlated with plaque removal in children. Further, the brushing times produced a nearly pe...
متن کاملA Data Logger for Wireless Sensor Network
Wireless sensor networks (WSN) are often used to monitor environmental data because of their low cost. However, writing applications for such a technology requires not trivial programming skills. Moreover it is not easy to find available general purpose tools that can be used to perform a monitoring task with a WSN because usually such tools are focused on a specific application scenario. In th...
متن کاملDetection of Toothbrushing Activity using Free-living Acceleration Data
The present paper discusses the characterisation of toothbrushing activity, using acceleration data collected for 50 subjects in free-living conditions. The data logging is triggered by super-threshold values of acceleration, which can give rise to false activations by non-brushing activities. Due to large intra and inter individual variations, it is not possible to obtain an exhaustive trainin...
