In particular, the pupil diameter fluctuation, which constantly change the size of the pupil under constant illuminance, is correlated with the heart rate fluctuation commonly used in autonomic function estimation. Autonomic function estimation by pupil diameter fluctuation is still under development because albino rats often used in autonomic nervous function experiments. In this study, we propose a method to detect a pupil and measure pupil diameter by image processing of albino rats under near-infrared illumination without fixing eyelids. As a result of pupillary diameter measurement accuracy evaluation, the mean error rate of the measured value and the calculated value was 0.51%, and the correlation coefficient was 0.955 (p < 0.001), suggesting the usefulness of the proposed method. In addition, we obtained the pupil diameter fluctuation under restraint load using the proposed method, and examined whether autonomic nerve function can be estimated by frequency analysis. The analysis confirmed the tendency of autonomic nervous system function observed during restraint load, suggesting that autonomic nervous function estimation by pupil diameter fluctuation may be possible.","PeriodicalId":205631,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Life Support Engineering","volume":"54 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-08-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122594944","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Each subject wore a head mounted display (HMD) experienced behavior for evacuation in a virtual underground mall developed in this study. Mobile history etc. of each subject were recorded and a questionnaire survey was conducted at the same time to grasp the reasons that the subjects moved in the virtual space, and the relationships between exit choices and the reasons were organized. The occupant density (high, medium, low) were set and the combinations of four positions and two directions of the subjects at the start of evacuation were done as the experimental conditions. A series of the experiments had shown that 1) there was a potential for using a VR escape simulator for evacuation drill in public facilities such as underground malls, 2) the start position and the direction of each subject and the occupant density had effects on their decision of moving direction and exit choice, and 3) the ratios of their decision were varied based on their conditions. And, we could consider improvement plans of the VR escape simulator.","PeriodicalId":205631,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Life Support Engineering","volume":"110 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-08-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117345844","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To prevent the dislodgment, we developed a wired device using two types of strain gauges and examined whether it was capable of detecting a dangerous action leading to needle dislodgment. One of the two strain gauges was attached to the tape for fixing a needle normally on the skin and the other one on the tape to fix a connecting tube by a taping method termed ‘omega fixing’. Ten volunteers repeated the following task three times. The task was composed of the three consecutive actions: 1) keeping the arm still for 2 minutes, 2) keep themselves relaxed for 2 minutes and 3) performing a one-minute dangerous action causing needle dislodgment after one-minute still state. A statistically significant difference in strain was observed between the dangerous action and the other two. We found that an appropriate threshold in strain enabled detection of the dangerous action at a low significance level, for example 1.5% in this study, although a clear cut-off strain value that distinguished the dangerous action from the others was not found. Then, to systemize the device for IoT, we developed a wireless system and verified that it functioned equally to the wired system.","PeriodicalId":205631,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Life Support Engineering","volume":"162 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134242970","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

TKA is an operation consisting in removing the damaged surface of a patient ’ s knee joint and implanting an artificial one. The implantation angle of the artificial knee joint depends on the mechanical axis crossing the hip joint of the patient. However, it ’ s difficult for medical doctors to accurately visualize a patient ’ s mechanical axis in a clinical setting during the operation. Because the existing systems that can estimate the mechanical axis present several disadvantages such as cost, size, and complexity, they have not been widely used. The aim of this research is to develop a simple and low cost system to estimate a patient ’ s mechanical axis in a clinical setting. A three-axis inertial measurement unit (IMU) is attached to the bone cutting guide. When the femur is swung, either horizontally or vertically, the angular difference in roll, pitch and yaw is proportional to the angular difference between the mechanical and sensor ’ s axis. From this, the angular difference between mechanical and sensor ’ s axis can be calculated. In our experiments, the angular differences were 0°,  ,  , and  , with calculated angle errors below 1.0  . These results indicate the effectiveness of our system","PeriodicalId":205631,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Life Support Engineering","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128427812","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
