- What Is An Intracranial Catheter Tip Pressure Transducer?
Increased intracranial pressure (ICP) is a life threatening condition that can be caused by a variety of different circumstances. Some of the more common include cerebral vascular accidents, severe head trauma, brain tumors, and meningitis. Published 12Feb2012, viewed 74 times
- Differential Gas Pressure Transducer
Pressure transducers, also referred as sensors or indicators, are used to measure pressure. Most of the times, it is used to evaluate the force of gases or liquids. Published 11Feb2012, viewed 31 times
- Pressure Measurement Equipment For Urology
The general definition of a catheter, as medical equipment, can be given as a flexible instrument, featured with a tubular shape, which is inserted into an opening of the body to take out or introduce liquid. Published 11Feb2012, viewed 27 times
- ICP Measurement Devices
There are several different types of ICP measurement devices in use today. These can be placed in various locations including the epidural, subdural, subarachnoid, parenchyma, or ventricular areas of the brain. Published 11Feb2012, viewed 34 times
- Fontanometer and its Benefits
A Fontanometer can be presented as an altered copy of the Schiotz tonometer. This medical device is used for guesstimating the comparative state of intracranial pressure in an infant. Published 11Feb2012, viewed 28 times
- Devices For Clinical Measurement
Medicine requires very precise measurements. Pressure readings must be accurate when delivering gases - like oxygen, nitrogen and carbon dioxide - to patients. Published 11Feb2012, viewed 25 times
- Facts about Urology Void Sensors
The urology void sensors can be described as simple and robust strain gauge devices used to study the flow rate. These void sensors feature an amplifier which can be adjusted for better and sensitivity to match any system. Published 11Feb2012, viewed 26 times
- Clinical Measurement Using EMG Electrode Catheters
Electromyography (EMG) refers to the study of the bioelectric potentials produced by depolarization of the skeletal muscle. The key purpose of this study is to provide citations germane to the neurological coordination of urethral striated muscle related to urodynamic studies. Published 11Feb2012, viewed 53 times
- Nanologgers And Clinical Usage
As part of the ever-expanding health care sector, research and clinical trials are becoming increasingly common. As such, the need for accurate and non-intrusive methods of recording the results of these trials is greater than ever. Published 11Feb2012, viewed 25 times
- Choosing A Transducer Interface For Strain Gauge Sensors
There are generally several uses for intracranial catheter tip transducers; however, their main purpose is served in situations in which a patient has suffered a catastrophic head injury or illness of the brain or spinal column, or, as well, in the case of tumor removal.

- Pressure Measurement Devices For Medical Industry
There are several different types of ICP measurement devices in use today. These can be placed in various locations including the epidural, subdural, subarachnoid, parenchyma, or ventricular areas of the brain. Published 11Feb2012, viewed 33 times
- What You Need To Know About Urology Catheter Tip Pressure Transducers
Pressure transducers and catheters are used in evaluating either lower or upper urinary tract. These devices convert the changes in pressure into electrical pulses that are amplified and then recorded using special devices. Published 11Feb2012, viewed 24 times
- What Is A Differential Gas Pressure Transducer?
Differential gas pressure transducers are used to measure the differences in gas pressure on equipment. The transducer translates gas pressure variations into an electric signal, which can be monitored by professionals. Maintaining a proper gas pressure is essential for controlling critical, sensitive and precise processes. Published 11Feb2012, viewed 31 times
- Benefits Of Using A Fontanometer
Increased cranial pressure (ICP) in infants can be caused by a variety of different circumstances. The most common are encephalitis-an inflammation of the brain, most often caused by an infection, meningitis-an infection of the membrane covering the brain, and hydrocephalus-a buildup up fluid in the skull often caused by developmental malformations or masses that do not allow the cerebrospinal fluid to properly drain. Published 11Feb2012, viewed 25 times
- What You Need to Know About Urology Void Sensors
Urology Void Sensors are used by doctors to study and diagnose urology issues in patients. They are used to gather information about patients that suffer from urine flow problems or have difficulty emptying their entire bladder. Published 11Feb2012, viewed 36 times
- EMG Electrode Catheters
There is a wide range of durable and flexible catheters now available to individuals in need; some are silicone while others are made of rubber. The mounted sensory device can be altered for any number of unique circumstance that relate to the individual's needs. Published 11Feb2012, viewed 33 times
- What Is A Luer Fitting Pressure Tranducer?
A pressure transducer, often referred to as a pressure sensor or pressure indicator, is available in many different designs and materials. Published 11Feb2012, viewed 37 times
