In our experience the balloon should initially be inflated using an amount of saline solution proportional to the diameter of the sinotubular junction (1 : 1) to avoid unnecessary overexpansion.
The nail, inserted in the medullary canal in its smallest diameter, is inflated using a manual disposable pump with high-pressurized saline solution.
Adjustable Air- The bed is inflated using an electric pump.
In the presence of a common outcome, such as DR in our study, point estimates for exposures associated with an increased risk of disease will be inflated using logistic regression.
When permeable geosynthetic tubes are used for dewatering of waste sludge or construction of dikes or embankments, the tubes have to be inflated using sludge or soil slurry several times.
We will define our base year as 2008 so costs in earlier years will be inflated using the published Australian consumer price index (CPI).
Where 2000 values were not available, older estimates were inflated using the Health Care Inflation Index, a component of the Consumer Price Index, supplied by Statistics Canada [ 42].
d, e The dilating balloon, which is inflated using saline pressure from a syringe.
In addition, where available, cost of complications was extracted directly from published studies or other local sources [ 16– 21] and cost data, not available in 2013 values, were inflated using the corresponding health inflation rates reported by the National Statistical Service [ 22].
