Noninvasive intermittent blood pressure monitoring was first developed 30 years ago.' It is now evolving from its former role as a somewhat esoteric research tool to becoming a clinically useful procedure for the evaluation ofhypertensive patients. In this review we outline its historical development, compare noninvasive 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring with the other available meth...

An adult yellow-legged gull (Larus michahellis) of unknown sex was evaluated with history motor vehicle trauma and unable to fly. The patient, that on first examination showed no clinical sign, diagnosed second day scapulohumeral luxation avulsion fracture via 3-dimensional computed tomography. Computed tomography is a noninvasive, well-recognized diagnostic procedure in avian medicine. This th...

Adv Physiol Educ 41: 266–269, 2017; doi:10.1152/ advan.00185.2016.—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 hemo...

In this study, we focused on diffuse reflectance spectroscopy, a rapid and noninvasive spectroscopy technique that has considerable potential for medical diagnosis. order to better understand analyze the signals induced by method, performed series of in vivo measurements healthy diseased skin. Measurement sites human hand feet were chosen. Some preliminary results obtained these show feasibilit...

background: immunochromatographic based rk39 antibody detection test became popular for the diagnosis of vis­ceral leishmaiasis (vl) because of high sensitivity, rapidity, easy to interpret, and cost effectiveness. however, false positive result after complete cure of the patients is the major limitation with this test. the aim of the study to access the usefulness of non-invasive samples i.e. ...

Presented here is a 40-year review of Del Mar Avionics’ Medical Systems Division, highlighting the company’s clinical application teamwork with members of the International Society of Holter and Noninvasive Electrocardiology and other cardiologists worldwide to develop and apply its novel long-term clinical ambulatory heart monitoring instrumentation for reporting and managing abnormal rhythm a...

conclusions patients with chronic hepatitis c and with a ciscun ≤ 1 had a very low rate of cirrhosis while those with a ciscun = 4 had a high risk of cirrhosis. patients with ciscun = 2 or 3 had an intermediate rate of cirrhosis, and therefore needed to perform a liver biopsy to receive a reliable diagnosis. results we enrolled 249 patients who had complete laboratoristic data, and sufficient l...
