Standard pulse oximeters can be used to monitor respiratory rate.
BACKGROUND One of the most important limitations of standard pulse oximeters is the inability to detect changes in respiratory rate until oxygenation is affected. This study sought to determine if analysis of the plethysmogram by wavelet transforms would enable the determination of changes in respiratory rate at an earlier stage. METHODS Ten healthy adult volunteers were monitored, breathing ...
متن کاملCan Occupancy–Abundance Models Be Used to Monitor Wolf Abundance?
Estimating the abundance of wild carnivores is of foremost importance for conservation and management. However, given their elusive habits, direct observations of these animals are difficult to obtain, so abundance is more commonly estimated from sign surveys or radio-marked individuals. These methods can be costly and difficult, particularly in large areas with heavy forest cover. As an altern...

متن کاملCan Urine Lamivudine Be Used to Monitor Antiretroviral Treatment Adherence?
Patient adherence to treatment is an important factor in the effectiveness of antiretroviral regimens. Adherence to treatment could be monitored by estimation of antiretroviral drugs in biological fluids. We aimed to obtain information on the quantity and duration of excretion of lamivudine in urine following oral administration of a single dose of 300 mg and to assess its suitability for adher...
متن کاملCausal Models can be Used to Predict Base-Rate Neglect
Causal models are used to predict individuals' probability judgments on the taxicab problem of Tversky and Kahneman (1982). Predictions are based on the hypothesis that judgments take into account only those variables that are judged causally relevant. Two versions of the problem were tested, one with and one without causally-relevant base rates. The results showed that causal models were able ...
