Integrating a Hand Held computer and Stethoscope into a Fetal Monitor
This article presents procedures for modifying a hand held computer or personal digital assistant (PDA) into a versatile device functioning as an electronic stethoscope for fetal monitoring. Along with functioning as an electronic stethoscope, a PDA can provide a useful information source for a medical trainee. Feedback from medical students, residents and interns suggests the device is well ac...
متن کاملSmaller and Faster: Using a Hand Held Computer to Support a Bedside Vascular Access Team
An application for a handheld computer was developed to support the Vascular Access team in an academic medical center. The development involved workflow analysis and usability testing centered on the users. The application interfaced with the desktop to generate the documentation needed for the charts and to populate the database used to track productivity, volume, outcomes, etc. Post-implemen...
متن کاملA clinical computer and monitor.
The key to the early warning of a deteriorating clinical situation lies in the change in parameters rather than in their absolute value. This not only colours the choice of sensor, but also affects the design of the discriminators between the sensors and the logic circuits. While the sensors and logic are clearly the most important parts of the equipment, it is probably the presentation of info...
متن کاملGyrotyre. A Hand-held Dynamic Computer-Music Controller Based on a Spinning Wheel
This paper presents a novel controller built to exploit the physical behaviour of a simple dynamical system, namely a spinning wheel. The phenomenon of gyroscopic precession causes the instrument to slowly oscillate when it is spun quickly, providing the performer with proprioceptive feedback. Also, due to the mass of the wheel and tire and the resulting rotational inertia, it maintains a relat...
