Anesthetic management in upper extremity transplantation: the Pittsburgh experience.
BACKGROUND Hand/forearm/arm transplants are vascularized composite allografts, which, unlike solid organs, are composed of multiple tissues including skin, muscle, tendons, vessels, nerves, lymph nodes, bone, and bone marrow. Over the past decade, 26 upper extremity transplantations were performed in the United States. The University of Pittsburgh Medical Center has the largest single center ex...
متن کاملAssessment of Accelerometers for Measuring Upper-Extremity Physical Activity.
OBJECTIVE The overarching goal of this study was to examine the use of triaxial accelerometers in measuring upper-extremity motions to monitor upper-extremity-exercise compliance. There were multiple questions investigated, but the primary objective was to investigate the correlation between visually observed arm motions and triaxial accelerometer activity counts to establish fundamental activi...
