Abstract:

Self-care is an essential component of secondary prevention of coronary artery disease (CAD) for rural women who have undergone invasive coronary interventions (ICI). The purpose of this study was to describe self-care behavior experiences of rural women with CAD post-invasive coronary interventions defined as percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI -- balloon angioplasty with or without stent placement), and coronary artery bypass graft (CABG). Three specific aims were addressed: Specific Aim 1. To identify and describe self-care behaviors initiated by these women after the intervention. Spec

Abstract:

With increasing life expectancy and global population of older adults, preserving cog- nitive function throughout life represents a growing priority. Numerous approaches to cognitive enhancement exist, but few have scientific merit. Among the most preva- lent – and commercialized – approaches are cognitive training (“brain training”) and non-invasive brain stimulation through electric currents applied at the surface of the scalp. The present dissertation describes a collection of work contextualizing the appeal of these cognitive enhancement methods and addressing some of the most pervasive li

Abstract:

Respiratory motion of the heart limits the utility of image-guided cardiac interventions, causing misalignments between the pre-procedure information used for guidance and the intra-procedure moving anatomy and instruments. As a result, the guidance can be misleading, compromising the accuracy and success of the intervention. Respiratory motion models have been proposed to estimate and correct for respiratory motion, but to date their clinical uptake has been very limited due to a lack of accuracy and robustness, and the interruptions that they typically introduce into the clinical work flow.

Abstract:

The use of noninvasive positive pressure ventilation (NPPV) in acute care settings has drastically increased within the past 20 years. Research has indicated that NPPV is equally as effective as traditional mechanical ventilation(MV) in treating acute exacerbations of chronic pulmonary obstructive disease (COPD) and cardiogenic pulmonary edema. Furthermore, the risk of complication from NPPV is much lower than MV, in terms of ventilator-associated pneumonia and sepsis. It is imperative for the nurse to understand the various indications, interfaces, and potential complications associated with

Abstract:

X-ray fluoroscopy and echocardiography imaging (ultrasound, US) are two imaging modalities that are widely used in cardiac catheterization. For these modalities, a fast, accurate and stable algorithm for the detection and tracking of catheters is required to allow clinicians to observe the catheter location in real-time. Currently X-ray fluoroscopy is routinely used as the standard modality in catheter ablation interventions. However, it lacks the ability to visualize soft tissue and uses harmful radiation. US does not have these limitations but often contains acoustic artifacts and has a smal

Abstract:

The ability to measure and quantify myocardial motion and deformation provides a useful tool to assist in the diagnosis, prognosis and management of heart disease. Myocardial motion can be measured by means of several different types of data acquisition. The earliest myocardial motion tracking technique was invasive, based on implanting radiopaque markers into the myocardium around the left ventricle, and recording the marker positions during the cardiac cycle by biplane cineradiography. Until recently, this was the only method with high enough spatial resolution of three-dimensional (3D) myoc

Recent guidelines for the management of stable coronary artery disease (CAD) and myocardial revascularisation emphasise the importance of the presence of ischaemia for guiding revascularisation. Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance (CMR) perfusion imaging and fractional flow reserve (FFR) are two methods of physiological ischaemia assessment, one invasive and the other non-invasive. In order that the results are interpreted accurately, it is important to be aware of the limitations and advantages of each technique. These techniques measure different parameters so it is not uncommon that the two t

Abstract:

Streptococcus pneumoniae is a highly diverse and adaptable opportunistic pathogen that can infect and colonise different niches within the human host to cause a wide range of invasive disease (sepsis and meningitis) and noninvasive disease (pneumonia, otitis media and sinusitis). The molecular mechanisms that contribute to the different patterns of pneumococcal infection remain largely unknown. This thesis aims to determine the physiological and proteomic responses that allow the pneumococcus to survive and adapt to invasive and non-invasive sites. The comparative proteomic analyses of clinica

Abstract:

La tesi descrive la stimolazione magnetica transcranica, un metodo di indagine non invasivo. Nel primo capitolo ci si è soffermati sull’ anatomia e funzionalità del sistema nervoso sia centrale che periferico e sulle caratteristiche principali delle cellule neuronali. Nel secondo capitolo vengono descritte inizialmente le basi fisico-tecnologiche della strumentazione stessa, dando particolare attenzione ai circuiti che costituiscono gli stimolatori magnetici ed alle tipologie di bobine più utilizzate. Successivamente si sono definiti i principali protocolli di stimolazione evidenziandone le

Abstract:

<p>The present thesis proposes new methods for obtaining objective and accurate diagnoses in modern healthcare. Non-invasive techniques have been used to examine or diagnose three different medical conditions, namely neuropathy among diabetics, radiotherapy induced erythema (skin redness) among breast cancer patients and diagnoses of cutaneous malignant melanoma. The techniques used were Near-InfraRed spectroscopy (NIR), Multi Frequency Bio Impedance Analysis of whole body (MFBIA-body), Laser Doppler Imaging (LDI) and Digital Colour Photography (DCP).</p><p>The neuropathy for diabetics was stu

Abstract:

The production of antibodies for analytical purposes using invasive procedures on small mammals is common practice in biomedical research. The aim of this study was to develop an efficient method for non-invasive antibody production in the chicken. This thesis presents an alternative method that eliminates the discomfort, pain and distress invoked by traditional immunization procedures on mammals by instead harvesting antibodies (IgY) from the yolk of eggs laid by orally immunized hens. An efficient oral immunization regime was developed by first trying out a suitable non-aggressive oral adjuv
