For example, pungency typically has a slow onset but can persist for prolonged periods, minutes to tens of minutes.
A diagnosis of unstable angina was based on a negative troponin test, new onset angina (<2 months) of at least Canadian Cardiovascular Society Classification class III, prolonged (>20 minutes) rest angina, recent (<2 months) worsening of angina, or angina that occurred within 2 weeks of a previous MI [19].
Heart beat frequency of bee-eaters measured during cross-country soaring-gliding flight or during stopover soaring flight was statistically indistinguishable from fH measured during prolonged (>10 minutes), motionless, rest (Wilcoxon paired signed rank test, N = 6 birds, Z = 0.73, p = 0.46 and N = 6, Z = 0.11, p = 0.92, for cross-country flights and stopovers, respectively).
Median time to drug administration was therefore prolonged (13 minutes).
In the study by Landesberg and colleagues [ 23], norepinephrine infusion significantly predicted prolonged (>60 minutes) ischemia (OR, 3.08; CI, 0.99 to 9.60; P = 0.05) and troponin elevation in 101 general ICU patients.
Presence of a threatened airway was defined as a necessity for intratracheal suctioning, insertion of oro- or nasopharyngeal tubes, intubation, bronchoscopy and occurrence of seizures as repeated or prolonged (>five minutes) seizures.
The winners of Investigatorships are subject to such prolonged & minute scrutiny that the A.H.A. doesn't feel it's taking much of a chance in setting them up for life.
In general, in patients above 65 years, recovery time has been prolonged, from <2 minutes to <4 minutes.
Operative time was prolonged by 15 minutes (95% confidence interval 9.3 to 21.1 minutes; I=85%) in patients with previous surgery.
This sample size provides adequate power (≥90%) to detect minimum differences of interest on secondary workplace and overall activity outcomes, with assumed SDs and pre-post correlations (r) of 70 75 mins (r = 0.4) for sitting, standing and prolonged sitting; 20 35 minutes (r = 0.7) for stepping and MVPA; and, 60 minutes (r = 0.7) for light activity.
