Briefly, utilizing the positional information of a particular channel relative to the anatomical landmarks, this method enables the placement of a virtual probe holder on the scalp by simulating the holder's deformation and thereby registering probes and channels onto the reference brains, in place of a participant's brain, in a probabilistic manner.
Exclusion criteria were age <18 years, moribund status, risks associated with HFOV (head injury, pneumothorax or a chest tube in place with persistent air leak) and contraindications to the placement of a nasogastric probe.
Nasopharyngeal or hypopharyngeal placement of a pH probe sensor is particularly uncomfortable for the patient, and is generally reserved for research use.
In this first example, we simulated the repeated placement of an optical probe on the Colin27 atlas brain in order to examine the reconstruction errors introduced by a nearest-neighbor probe.
CMD consists in the placement of an intraparenchymal probe that has on its tip a semi-permeable dialysis membrane.
Pulmonary artery catheter also provides continuous information about the mixed venous oxygen saturation (SvO2) and right ventricular ejection fraction and enables placement of an electrosystolic probe in the right ventricle.
First, like WOB and the pressure-time product, it requires correct placement of an esophageal probe.
Following placement of an ICP probe, patients with sTBI were treated in the intensive care unit (ICU) according to a standardized protocol.
Patients were excluded from consideration if there were contraindications to ANH or esophageal pathology that increased the risks associated with the placement of an ultrasound probe.
This involves placement of a tubular microdialysis probe into the synovial cavity: the probe comprises a semi-permeable membrane and is constantly perfused with a physiological buffer solution, the so-called perfusate, at a low flow rate.
