Timely usage of AEDs is key for improving out-of-hospital cardiac arrest survival rates. Yet for many communities, access to these devices remains a significant barrier. DCRI faculty member Monique Starks is working to use drones to improve delivery times for AEDs to ensure they arrive within that key five-minute window. Check out the video below for a demonstration of the drone delivery in action, and be sure to read the latest study results published in the American College of Cardiology: https://lnkd.in/gGhJWed5 #clinicaltrials #clinicalresearch #AEDs #heartattack

Risk Stratification and Closed–loop Ventilation in Critically Ill Patients Today, Jan-Paul Roozeman defended his academic dissertation ‘Risk Stratification and Closed–loop Ventilation in Critically Ill Patients’ (https://lnkd.in/gDu899Ty). Jan-Paul Roozeman’s thesis is a collection of studies of risk-stratification and closed-loop, fully automated ventilation. The overarching aims of this thesis were to: - determine the prognostic capacity and the optimal timepoint of prognostication using SpO2/FiO2 and PEEP; - determine the prognostic capacity of prone positioning induced changes in PaO2/FiO2, deadspace and driving pressure; and to  - determine the effects of using sidestream versus mainstream capnography during closed–loop ventilation on the quality of breathing #amsterdamumc #UVA #phd #AcademicPromotion #AcademicDissertation #ICU #InvasiveVentilation #VentilationQuality #AutomatedVentilation #prognostication #PFversusSF #prone #PronePositioning

The Second episode of our series introducing Airborne Ultrasound Technology 🎥 In this episode, we will see what technology stands out for condition monitoring, and what makes it the best choice? Is it a valid question?! #AirborneUltrasoundintro #Predictive #Proactive #AirborneUltrasoundapplications #CBMTechnologyintegration

Interesting fact: Did you know that the sinking of the Titanic in 1912 helped to accelerate advancements in ultrasound technology to detect objects such as icebergs and submarines, leading eventually to ultrasound as a diagnostic method in therapeutic applications we have today?

Video laryngoscopy with excellent image quality One of the key factors when intubating with a video laryngoscope is the image quality. A recent cross-over randomized manikin study under the direction of Prof. Pierre Diemunsch, CHRU de Strasbourg - Hôpitaux Universitaires de Strasbourg, France, revealed that the HEINE visionPRO video laryngoscope scores very highly in that respect: On a scale from 1-10, participants rated the HEINE video laryngoscope with an outstanding value of 9.34. Furthermore, the visionPRO had a much lower tendency to dazzle (only 1 % compared to 20 % of the competitor product) due to the allBRIGHT display. The results of the manikin study were presented by Dr. Michael Seltz Kristensen at the 7th European Airway Management Society (EAMS) Congress in Baveno, Italy, in October 2023.

These videos from our European team never get old! Imagine not being able to recognize people on the street or read text. This is what happens to late-stage AMD patients—they lose the ability to do these seemingly simple tasks. But, after the implantation of the first intraocular telescope, the SING IMT, these patients can regain their independence back. This patient recounts her transformation with a low vision rehabilitation expert at her rehabilitation session. Note, the SING IMT is not available in the U.S. #ophthalmology #medicaldevice #lifesciences #medicaltechnology

Beautifully put Denise! Evidence isn't synonymous with fact just because it's published as the tongue-in-cheek BMJ article demonstrates, stating parachutes does not prevent death and major trauma when jumping from aircraft: https://lnkd.in/dPEBeUqx. The context, quality, and ethics of studies vary, which can skew results.
