1. 1. Fysiologiska effekter vid stående och liggande immobilisering av asiatiska och afrikanska elefanter : praktisk utvärdering och litteraturstudie

   University essay from SLU/Dept. of Clinical Sciences

   Author : Tina Jansson; [2023]
   Keywords : afrikansk elefant; alfa2-adrenoceptoragonist; asiatisk elefant; fysiologi; immobilisering; opioid; sedering; xylazin;

   Abstract : Elefanten är världens nu största landlevande däggdjur och alla tre arter som finns är listade som hotade av olika grad. Att immobilisera vilda elefanter är en del av det artbevarande arbetet. Även elefanter i djurparker och så kallade arbetselefanter kan behöva immobiliseras, till exempel för vård eller transporter.

3. 2. Physiological responses in underwater sports. A systematic review of the diving response due to exercise performed in apnoea.David Esteve-

   University essay from Örebro universitet/Institutionen för hälsovetenskaper

   Author : David Esteve-Garde; [2021]
   Keywords : Artistic swimming; freediving; blood lactate; heart rate; arterial pressure; arterial saturation; oxygen uptake;

   Abstract : AbstractUnderwater sports such as artistic swimming and freediving, are characterized by periods of voluntary arrest of breathing, known as apnoea, while exercising. It is well known that apnoea leads to bradycardia and some other oxygen conserving responses, but little is known when exercise is conducted underwater, and the differences between exercise with intermittent and maximal apnoea periods.

4. 3. Accuracy Validation of Pulse Oximeters used at Hospitals : A Cross-Sectional Study performed in Stockholm

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknik och hälsa (STH)

   Author : Klara Andersson; Esther Busch Paulsson; [2017]
   Keywords : pulse oximeter; accuracy; arterial blood gas test; questionnaire; test; healthcare; pulsoximeter; mätnogrannhet; arteriellt blodgastest; enkät; test; sjukvård;

   Abstract : This thesis had the purpose to look into the accuracy of the pulse oximeter, the experienced as well as the actual. A pulse oximeter utilizes optics to non-invasively estimate the oxygen saturation (SO2) in the blood with an indirect value (SpO2). READ MORE

5. 4. Pulsed inhaled nitric oxide during mechanical ventilation in horses undergoing abdominal surgery : the effect on arterial oxygenation

   University essay from SLU/Dept. of Clinical Sciences

   Author : Sofia Wulcan; [2017]
   Keywords : PINO; nitric oxide; anaesthesia; horse; IPPV; colic; hypoxaemia;

   Abstract : The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of pulsed inhaled nitric oxide (PiNO) during intermittent positive pressure ventilation (IPPV) on arterial oxygenation and right to left vascular shunt in colic horses undergoing abdominal surgery. Hypoxemia is a serious complication commonly occurring during general equine anaesthesia. READ MORE

6. 5. Developing an sleep scorer by using Biosignals in Matlab. : Evaluation for sleep apnea patients.

   Author : Igor Alfredo Arroyo Porras; [2015]
   Keywords : Biosignals; Sleep apnea; Sleep medicine; Matlab; SHHS; AASM; polysomnography;

   Abstract : Nowadays, sleep disorders e.g. sleep apnea —the cessation of airflow at the nose and mouth lasting at least 10 second— are a broadly problem around the world. Direct and indirect costs associated to sleep problems are outsize and the quality of patient life is deteriorated because of it. READ MORE
