The aimed of this study was to compare 2 different concentration of adrenaline (epinephrine) on patients’ hemodynamic effect and intra-operative bleeding. A prospective randomized double blind control study using 2 different concentrations of epinephrine was designed to observe hemodynamic and haemostatic changes during septoplasty and to observe any cardiac complications. Sixty patients underw...

The present study furthered the concept of simulation-based medical education by applying a personalized active learning component. We tested this novel approach utilizing a noninvasive hemodynamic monitor with the capability to measure and display in real time numerous hemodynamic parameters in the exercising participant. Changes in medical knowledge concerning physiology were examined with a ...

and Introduction Abstract The clinical determination of the intravascular volume can be extremely difficult in critically ill and injured patients as well as those undergoing major surgery. This is problematic as fluid loading is considered the first step in the resuscitation of hemodynamically unstable patients. Yet, multiple studies have demonstrated that only about 50% of hemodynamically uns...

Purpose. To evaluate hemodynamic parameters as possible predictors for glaucoma progression. Methods. An 18-month randomized double-masked cohort study including 30 open-angle glaucoma patients receiving fixed-combination treatment with Dorzolamide/Timolol (DTFC) or Latanoprost/Timolol (LTFC) (n = 15 per group) was performed. Intraocular pressure (IOP), arterial blood pressure (BP), ocular and ...

BACKGROUND/AIMS Hyperuricemia has been reported to affect renal hemodynamics in rat models. We evaluate the relationship between serum uric acid and intrarenal hemodynamic parameters in humans, utilizing the plasma clearance of para-aminohippurate (CPAH ) and inulin (Cin). METHODS Renal and glomerular hemodynamics were assessed by simultaneous measurement of CPAH and Cin in 58 subjects. Of th...

A systematic investigation of the distribution of red cell velocity throughout the hierachy of the rat pulp microvascular network was performed. Luminal diameters (D) of microvessels ranging in size from 8 to 72 micron were measured in situ by an electronic video image shearing technique. Intravascular red cell velocities (Vrbc) were simultaneously measured by a variation of the "two-slit" phot...
