Abstract:
The measurement of central venous pressure (CVP) will provide objective information about intravascular blood volume. Limitations exist with direct and indirect methods of measuring CVP; however, the purpose of this study was to determine if such factors as catheter size, patient position, or measurements taken with either a water manometer or a strain-gauge transducer would affect the accuracy of CVP measurements. The study population consisted of six adult, mixed-breed dogs. Catheter sizes evaluated were 16- and 19-gauge. Patient positions evaluated were right and left lateral recumbencies. Right atrial pressures (RAPs) were used as the reference standards for CVP measurements. Measurements of RAP and CVP were obtained with a water manometer and a strain-gauge transducer. No significant differences were observed in measured CVPs for the effects of catheter size and right versus left lateral recumbency. A 2.7-mmHg difference in water manometry was demonstrated when compared to strain-gauge transducer measurements. Also, strain-gauge transducer measurements had less precision compared to water manometer measurements.

Abstract:
The article gives the electrical conductivity of whole and shredded plant tissue. An experimental study was made of the dependence of the resistivity value and the volume occupied by the pulp on the pressing time and specific pressures on the pulp while taking into account the amount of pressed juice. The electrical resistance (R) of whole and crushed plant tissue was experimentally studied, which, when processing the results, was recalculated to the specific electrical resistance (ρ) of the tissue. The specific pressure (P) on the tissue was determined using a reference manometer, and the deformation (ΔH) of the sample was measured with a dial indicator.

Abstract:
Abstract. The NOAA Global Monitoring Laboratory serves as the World Meteorological Organization Global Atmosphere Watch (WMO/GAW) Central Calibration Laboratory (CCL) for CO2 and is responsible for maintaining the WMO/GAW mole fraction scale used as a reference within the WMO/GAW program. The current WMO-CO2-X2007 scale is embodied by 15 aluminum cylinders containing modified natural air, with CO2 mole fractions determined using the NOAA manometer from 1995 to 2006. We have made two minor corrections to historical manometric records: fixing an error in the applied second virial coefficient of CO2 and accounting for loss of a small amount of CO2 to materials in the manometer during the measurement process. By incorporating these corrections, extending the measurement records of the original 15 primary standards through 2015, and adding four new primary standards to the suite, we define a new scale, identified as WMO-CO2-X2019. The new scale is 0.18 µmol mol−1 (ppm) greater than the previous scale at 400 ppm CO2. While this difference is small in relative terms (0.045 %), it is significant in terms of atmospheric monitoring. All measurements of tertiary-level standards will be reprocessed to WMO-CO2-X2019. The new scale is more internally consistent than WMO-CO2-X2007 owing to revisions in propagation and should result in an overall improvement in atmospheric data records traceable to the CCL.

Abstract:
A new disposable fibreoptic transducer-tipped catheter manometer system was evaluated to assess its accuracy, stability of accuracy under prolonged simulated intra-arterial conditions, and dynamic characteristics. Maximum errors observed in the measurement of static pressure using a sample of five catheters (with one display unit) were 2 mmHg at 0 mmHg reference pressure, 2 at 20 mmHg, 4 at 40 mmHg, 4 at 100 mmHg and 9 at 200 mmHg. An immersion artifact caused a shift in baseline of up to 2 mmHg. Exposure of the transducer to 24 hours of simulated intra-arterial conditions (pulsatile pressure at 40°C) resulted in errors of up to 7 mmHg for pressures up to 100 mmHg, and 11 mmHg for 200 mmHg, which were largely attributable to a drift in baseline pressure (up 6 mmHg by 24 hours). Consistent overestimation by the system suggested inappropriate gain setting within the display unit which, however, is not user-adjustable. The system exhibited uniform frequency response up to 33 Hz.

Abstract:
Abstract An inconsistency with respect to variable transformations in our previous treatment of the cosine error example with repositioning (Metrologia, vol. 47, pp. R1–R14) is pointed out. The problem refers to the measurement of the vertical height of a column of liquid in a manometer. A systematic effect arises because of the possible deviation of the measurement axis from the vertical, which may be different each time the measurement is taken. A revised procedure for treating this problem is proposed; it consists in straightforward application of Bayesian statistics using a conditional reference prior with partial information. In most practical applications, the numerical differences between the two procedures will be negligible, so the interest of the revised one is mainly of conceptual nature. Nevertheless, similar measurement models may appear in other contexts, for example, in intercomparisons, so the present investigation may serve as a warning to analysts against applying the same methodology we used in our original approach to the present problem.

Abstract:
Experimental methods using different pressure standards were applied to verify theoretical results obtained for the effective area of the piston-cylinder assembly (PCA) and for pressures measured with a force-balanced piston gauge (FPG). The theoretical effective area was based on the PCA’s dimensional properties defined via diameter, straightness and roundness measurements of the piston and cylinder, derived by gas-flow modelling using principles of the rarefied gas dynamics, and presented as two values: one obtained for absolute and the other for gauge pressure operation mode. Both values have a relative standard uncertainty of 5×10<sup>-6</sup>. The experimental methods chosen were designed to cover the entire operating pressure range of the FPG from 3 Pa to 15 kPa. Comparisons of the FPG with three different PTB pressure standards operated in different pressure ranges – a pressure balance, a mercury manometer and a static expansion system – were performed using the cross-float method and by a direct comparison of the generated pressures. For the theoretical and experimental effective area, as well as for pressures generated by the FPG and the reference standards, all the results demonstrated full agreement within the expanded uncertainties of the standards.

Abstract:
The aim of the study was to determine arterial blood pressure response to exercise in young athletes. The study group comprised 711 young athletes (457 boys, 254 girls) aged 10 to 18 years (mean 13.41 ± 3.12 years) who had been training for an average of 7.62 ± 4.2 h per week for an average of 4.01 ± 2.5 years. Participants with elevated arterial blood pressure above the 90th percentile at rest were excluded from investigation. A symptom-limited, multistage exercise test to exhaustion was performed using a Monark cycle ergometer. Arterial blood pressure was measured with an aneroid manometer in the third minute of each stage of the test. Mean systolic arterial blood pressure during peak exercise was significantly higher in boys than in girls: 183.21 ± 27.97 mm Hg and 170.97 ± 21.4 mm Hg, respectively (p = 0.03). Multivariate linear regression analysis showed that age and workload had significant effects on arterial blood pressure during the test. Systolic arterial blood pressure during the exercise can be described with the following equations: boys, SBPex (mm Hg) = –1.92 × age (years) + 0.55 × workload (W) + 120.84; girls, SBPex (mm Hg) = –0.88 × age (years) + 0.48 × workload (W) + 111.22. The study results describe reference values of arterial blood pressure during the exercise test. The presented equations and figures can help to assess whether the arterial blood pressure at each stage of the exercise test exceeds the normal range or not.

Abstract:
BACKGROUND: Obesity is an important health problem affecting >500 million people worldwide. Esophageal dysmotility is a gastrointestinal pathology associated with obesity; however, its prevalence and characteristics remain unclear. Esophageal dysmotilities have a high prevalence among obese patients regardless of gastrointestinal symptoms.OBJECTIVE: To identify the prevalence of esophageal dysmotility among obese patients. The secondary goals were to characterize these pathologies in obese patients and identify risk factors.METHOD: A prospective study from January 2009 to March 2010 at the University of Montreal Hospital Centre (Montreal, Quebec) was performed. Every patient scheduled for bariatric surgery underwent preoperatory esophageal manometry and was included in the study. Manometry was performed according to a standardized protocol with the following measures: superior esophageal sphincter – coordination and release during deglutition; esophageal body – presence, propagation, length, amplitude and type of esophageal waves of contraction; lower esophageal sphincter – localization, tone, release, intragastic pressure and intraesophageal pressure. All reference values were those used in the digestive motility laboratory. A gastrointestinal symptoms questionnaire was completed on the day manometry was performed. Chart reviews were performed to identify comorbidities and treatments that could influence the results.RESULTS: A total of 53 patients were included (mean [± SD] age 43±10 years; mean body mass index 46±7 kg/m2; 70% female). Esophageal manometry revealed dysmotility in 51% (n=27) of the patients. This dysmotility involved the esophageal body in 74% (n=20) of the patients and the inferior sphincter in 11% (n=3). Mixed dysmotility (body and inferior sphincter) was found in 15% (n=4) of cases. The esophageal body dysmotilities were hypomotility in 85% (n=23) of the patients, either from insignificant waves (74% [n=20]), nonpropagated waves (11% [n=3]) or low-amplitude waves (33% [n=9]). Gastroesophageal symptoms were found in 66% (n=35) of obese patients, including heartburn (66% [n=23]), regurgitation (26% [n=9]), dysphagia (43% [n=15]), chest pain (6% [n=2]) and dyspepsia (26% [n=9]). Among symptomatic patients, 51% (n=18) had normal manometry and 49% (n=17) had abnormal manometry (statistically nonsignificant). Among asymptomatic patients (n=18), 44% (n=8) had normal manometry and 56% (n=10) had abnormal manometry (statistically nonsignificant). Furthermore, no statistical differences were found between the normal manometry group and the abnormal manometry group with regard to medication intake or comorbidities.CONCLUSION: Esophageal dysmotilities had a high prevalence in obese patients. Gastrointestinal symptoms cannot predict the presence of esophageal dysmotility. Hypomotility of the esophageal body is the most common dysmotility, especially from the absence of significant waves.

Abstract:
Avdelningen för Medicinsk teknik på Akademiska sjukhuset har uppdaterat befintliga kalibreringsprotokoll för Welch Allyn 767 som används som referensmanometer vid kalibrering av blodtrycksmätare. I protokollet ska det enligt ISO 9001 och ISO 13485 ingå att vid varje kalibreringspunkt ange mätosäkerheten.  Rutiner kring detta var inte definierade. En modell för att ta fram mätosäkerhet utformades utifrån standardiserade metoder från “Guide to the expression of uncertainty in measurement” och anpassades för att kunna användas på den medicintekniska avdelningen. En mätmetod för kalibrering togs fram och med modellen beräknades mätosäkerhet för en referensmanometer. Mätosäkerheten med definierad mätmetod blev lägre än den av Welch Allyn specificerade mätosäkerheten på ± 3 mmHg. Felfortplantning från kalibrering till blodtrycksmätning undersöktes. Mätosäkerheten ökade i varje steg, varför avdelningen bör ta fram ett protokoll för hur kalibrering genomförs, och på så sätt förbättra spårbarheten.
The department of Medical Technology at Akademiska sjukhuset has updated their current protocol for calibration for Welch Allyn 767, which serves as a reference manometer for blood pressure meters when being calibrated. According to ISO 9001 and ISO 13485, the protocol has to include a measurement uncertainty for every given point of calibration. The routines regarding this were undefined. A model for retrieving measurement uncertainty was designed using standardized methods from “Guide to the expression of uncertainty in measurement” and was customized to be used at the department of Medical Technology. A method for calibration was created and used to calculate the measurement uncertainty for the reference manometer. This measurement uncertainty was smaller than the one specified by Welch Allyn, which was ± 3 mmHg. Propagation of uncertainty from the calibration to the blood pressure measurement was investigated. The measurement uncertainty increased in every step. Therefore, the department should introduce a protocol for how a calibration is performed, and thereby improve the traceability.

Abstract:
The development of new tonometers requires laboratory tests on enucleated eyes where the intraocular pressure (IOP) is usually controlled by the use of a fluid column (manometry). This article describes a novel eye pressure regulation system for IOP tests along with a new concept of mechanical palpation tonometry. Manometry is commonly regarded as an invasive technique that can measure precisely the pressure inside the eye. It is a common laboratory technique for evaluating changes in IOP over time, and for providing reference pressure by which all other tonometers can be evaluated. In general, the system consists of a fluid column (1% saline solution) connected via PVC tubing to a three way valve. The valve is able to connect the column branch to a syringe with a 21G needle inserted into the vitreous humor and to a pressure transducer. The syringe needle is inserted in the eye through the side, with the tip located approximately in the middle of the vitreous chamber [1]. However, this method is prone to errors due to the gelatinous and highly fibrous nature of the vitreous matter that could easily clog the syringe needle and prevent the accurate pressure control and measurement. To resolve this difficulty, we report an alternative control of the IOP through the anterior chamber of the eye. In addition to the clogging, severed blood vessels in enucleated eyes result in large rate of leakage of intraocular fluid. With these modifications in place, it was demonstrated that the pressure sensing is fast and accurate, allowing investigation of mechanical trans-scleral palpation and the development of a new concept of mechanical palpation tonometry device. The device is based on multiple probes for measuring contact forces. Experimental data from the performance of the device are presented.
