The wireless sensor network is used to simulate poisonous gas generating system in the Fire-Fighting Simulated Training System. In the paper, we use the wireless signal to simulate the poisonous gas source and use received signal strength indicator (RSSI) to simulate the distance between the fireman and the gas source. The gas detection instrument samples the temperature and sphygmus of the tra...

D/S indicator which is the duration time ratio of heart diastole and systole is used to evaluate whether the blooding time in heart diastole is long enough, but how to extract the D/S indictor from heart sound autonomously, effectively and noninvasively is still a big challenge. This paper proposed an effective approach to autonomously and noninvasively extract D/S indicator from heart sound. F...

A recently published article by the Scientific Advisory Committee of the Medical Outcomes Trust presents guidelines for selecting and evaluating health status and health-related quality of life measures used in health outcomes research. In their article, they propose a number of validation and performance criteria with which to evaluate such self-report measures. We provide an alternate, yet co...

The use of indicator dilution curves has now become established as a routine procedure in studies of the circulation. Dyes are the commonly used indicators and the time concentration curve is obtained by intermittent sampling or by a continuous technique with an indwelling needle at a suitable sampling site. More recently radio-iodinated human serum albumin (1125HSA) has been successfully used ...

BACKGROUND The Indicator of Relative Need (IoRN) instrument is designed for both health and social care services to measure function and dependency in older people. To date, the tool has not undergone assessment of validity. We report two studies aimed to evaluate psychometric properties of the IoRN. METHODS The first study recruited patients receiving social care at discharge from hospital, ...
