The phantom consisted of a fat-like layer, which was a mixture of agar and titanium dioxide powder, and a muscle-like layer, which was suspension of washed bovine blood in Intralipid solution. An LED with 760 and 840 nm elements was used as an optical source, and the backscattered light was detected by photodiodes at source-detector distances of 20, 30 and 40 mm. The relationships between changes in optical density and blood concentrations were obtained at fat-like layer thicknesses of 0.5,10 and 15 mm under fully oxygenated and fully deoxygenated states. It was experimentally found that the change in optical density is significantly decreased and the linearity of measurement characteristics is clearly distorted by the presence of a fat layer. In the simulations, normalized light reflectance and mean optical pathlength in a muscle layer were calculated. The simulation results of the light reflectance agreed well with the experimental results. When the absorption in a muscle layer was relatively high, the mean optical pathlength in the muscle layer, or the measurement sensitivity, was not so dependent on the absorption. Therefore, the modified Beer-Lambert law can still be applied to estimate changes in muscle absorption from changes in optical density, even when a fat layer is involved. The results of simulation also suggested that the influence of a fat layer can be eliminated by correcting the measurement sensitivity using the fat layer thickness.</p>","PeriodicalId":77139,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers of medical and biological engineering : the international journal of the Japan Society of Medical Electronics and Biological Engineering","volume":"10 1","pages":"43-58"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2000-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1163/15685570052061531","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"21739326","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}

The polymers with a phosphorylcholine group, 2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine (MPC) co-polymerized with hydrophobic alkyl group, could interact with phospholipids in plasma selectively and strongly. The adsorbed phospholipids on the polymer surface were concentrated, organized each other and then formed a self-assembled biomimetic membrane surface. The surface showed excellent resistance for both protein adsorption and blood cell adhesion, i.e. the MPC polymer showed good blood compatibility. Based on these characteristics of the MPC polymer, it was applied to improve the biocompatibility and biostability of an implantable glucose sensor. The relative output current of the sensor covered with the MPC polymer membrane was maintained as the initial level even after 14 days of subcutaneous implantation in a rat.

Usually, positive pressure in alveoli diminishes lung perfusion, venous return and cardiac output. Positive pressure during the respiratory cycle is transfered into the thoracic space. The aim of this study was to assess how synchronization of the respirator with spontaneous breathing influences the distribution of pressure and ventilation in nonhomogeneous lungs and how it should influence hemodynamics. For this purpose a multicompartmental model of respiratory system mechanics was used in the electrical analog of a respirator-lung circuit, which enabled us to simultaneously simulate ventilatory support and spontaneous breathing. Mechanical properties of the respiratory system were modeled by lumped parameters: resistances and capacitances of constant values, independent of lung volume or inspiratory flow changes. A multicompartmental model of the respiratory system enabled us to simulate lung pathology characterized by non-homogeneity of the mechanical properties of the different parts of the lungs. The results of simulations presented in the paper enable us to conclude that lung volume increase, independent of the respirator-patient breathing synchronization, may be modeled as the increase in pulmonary vascular resistance and alveolar pressure increase, dependent on respirator-patient breathing synchronization, may be averaged by esophageous balloon measurements which show intrathoracic pressure changes.</p>","PeriodicalId":77139,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers of medical and biological engineering : the international journal of the Japan Society of Medical Electronics and Biological Engineering","volume":"10 3","pages":"157-65"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2000-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1163/15685570052062648","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"21846639","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}

Hospitals equipped with limited number of respirators, adequate for peacetime activity, are not able to meet suddenly multiplied requirements for ventilatory support. This paper describes a preliminary study to develop a convenient, reliable method of performing artificial ventilation of at least two patient by means of only one ventilator. We developed a unique, new control system (patent pending) which, when placed between a respirator and endotracheal tubes of the patients, divides the total tidal volume between the patients' lungs and controls pressures at their airways. A special arrangement of valves in the control system enables us to separate inspiratory and expiratory paths for each patient and to avoid cross-infection. The model study performed, according to ISO standards, on mechanical test lungs has shown that the proposed control system enables us to adjust ventilatory parameters at desired values, when lung compliance or respiratory airway resistance differ. The proposed one-source artificial ventilation is a simple solution to provide ventilatory support when the number of patients is greater than the number of respirators that are available.","PeriodicalId":77139,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers of medical and biological engineering : the international journal of the Japan Society of Medical Electronics and Biological Engineering","volume":"10 3","pages":"177-83"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2000-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1163/15685570052062576","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"21846641","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}

This paper suggests a novel technique to clearly demarcate normals and patients with complaints of vertigo and deafness by computing hitherto unused power spectral parameters from the BAER signals recorded on them. The BAER spectrum of normal subjects contains three main frequency components, i.e. low-, mid- and high-frequency components around 100, 500 and 1000 Hz, respectively, which is not so in the case of diseased subjects. The spectral parameters, i.e. the mean power frequency, median frequency, the ratios of the integrated power at dominant frequencies to that of the total power in spectrum and change in spectral power (CP) between these dominant frequency components are used to classify the recorded BAER signals into those of normals and the patients, and aid the clinician in quick and better diagnosis.
