The nervous system is controlled by a collection of neurons that transmit electric signals through the organism. These respond to internal and external stimuli regulate many involuntary physiological functions. autonomic regulates behaviors, such as heart rate, breathing, or pupil size action neuroendocrine substances modulate biological processes. processes allow express state while interactin...

Background Children undergo painful procedures during care and treatment. This study aimed to determine the effect of distractionon the intensityof pain in children aged 6 to 12 years old. Materials and Methods This clinical trial was conducted on the school-age children, who referred to Imam Hossein Hospital, Iran, Heris city, East Azarbaijan province (Iran) in 2017. In total 48 patients were...

Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs) are now commonly available on many academic and corporate Campuses [1]. Load balancing is necessary to improve the network performance. The load may be unevenly distributed across a small number of Access points in the WLAN. In this paper, the load of AP is balanced using load balancing algorithm utilizing Cell breathing technique. Cell breathing is a techni...

1. Lung volumes, airway resistance and flow/volume curves were measured in ten asthmatic subjects at times when tightness in the chest was just sensed (threshold symptom). 2. These measurements when the threshold symptom was induced by methacholine inhalation were compared with those when a similar symptom occurred spontaneously, in the same subjects. 3. Values during the methacholine-induced t...

BACKGROUND Respiratory rate is an important measurement in patient care, but accurate measurement is often difficult. We have developed a simple non-invasive device to measure respiratory movements in clinical circumstances, with minimal interference with the patient. We investigated respiratory patterns in patients receiving postoperative morphine analgesia to assess the capacity of the device...

Breathing is controlled by complex interactions between the central and peripheral nervous systems in conjunction with respiratory system. Neurological diseases predispose patients to nocturnal desaturation pneumonia due dysfunction, which increases mortality, daytime sleepiness fatigue, reduces quality of life. Respiratory function tests are required identify decline consider compensatory mana...

Breathing techniques are used by a large proportion of asthma sufferers. This systematic review was aimed at determining whether or not these interventions are effective. Four independent literature searches identified six randomized controlled trials. The results of these studies are not uniform. Collectively the data imply that physiotherapeutic breathing techniques may have some potential in...

In seven postoperative patients with normal preoperative pulmonary function tests, we evaluated the oxygen cost of breathing (VO2resp) during continuous positive pressure ventilation (CPAP) and during a 15 cm H2O inspiratory pressure support ventilation (IPSV). For both periods, VO2 resp was estimated as the difference between total oxygen uptake of the period (VO2tot), measured by a mass-spect...
