BACKGROUND During total hip arthroplasty (THA) drainage is used by most surgeons. However, the optimal drainage strategy remains controversial. The aim of this prospective cohort study was to determine the safety and efficacy of a four-hour drainage clamping technique in patients undergoing THA. MATERIAL AND METHODS There were 64 patients who underwent THA from March 2012 to December 2015 who w...

The goal of this study was to systematically review the effects of biliary stenting on postoperative morbidity and mortality of patients with obstructive jaundice. PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and other relevant databases were searched by computer and manually for published and unpublished studies on the impact of preoperative biliary drainage on patients with obstructive jaundice from 200...

PURPOSE To assess the therapeutic value of two different drainage catheters in treating chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH). MATERIALS AND METHODS Two types of drainage catheters can be used to treat CSDH according to the position of holes in the catheter: open-type or closed-type catheter. In this retrospective study, 199 total patients with CSDH were reviewed according to catheter type. Among ...

In the study, Drainmod model was used to compare measured water table depth fluctuations on the farm with those simulated by the model, also comparison of measured drainage outflow of the farm drains and model simulated was investigated. This study was made in a part of the Irrigation and Drainage Network of ABADAN Date palms. By statistical analysis of the measured and predicted water table de...

Abstract After more than 20 years of continuous development, part the wells in Moxilei-1 gas reservoir located at Sichuan Basin have entered middle–later production stage. With decline formation pressure and rates, some potential period liquid loading, while already suffered water plugging. Currently, field engineers usually carry out corresponding drainage measures after occurrence loading wel...

l and drainage has been central to the development of North America since colonial times, with the first organized drainage efforts occurring as early as the 1600s (Evans et al. 1996). Drainage has been encouraged to improve public highways, reduce public health risks, promote increased crop yield and reduced yield variability, reduce surface runoff and erosion, and increase land value. Agricul...

This paper presents an operator-friendly and cost-efficient approach to characterize the dielectric permittivity of liquids flowing in narrow tubes, such as drainage tubes used part wound healing process hospitals. The is based on oscillator that characterization can be achieved with minimal operator (e.g., nurse) training. oscillator's frequency set by a 3D-printed cavity resonator offer flexi...

The studies of ballistocardiography about the effect cardiovascular activity in body motion raised author interest research influence movements circulatory flow venous and lymphatic vessels. These effects follow Sir Isaac Newton laws. With movement, one-way valve structure these vessels will cause a mobilization blood lymph to proximal side. A model was built demonstrate oscillatory movement li...
