[Pulsoximetric sensor for diagnosis of intrauterine foetus state during parturition].

Detrimental changes in the degree of blood hemoglobin saturation with oxygen are important evidence of hypoxic states and can be regarded as objective indication to surgical delivery. A new method of fetal pulsoximetry was developed. This method is based on the use of a non-disposable atraumatic pulsoximetric sensor of reflectory type for diagnosis of intrauterine foetus state during parturition.

[Criteria of the accuracy of measurement of cardiocycle duration in systems for monitoring of cardiac rhythm variability parameters].

The use of the criteria of the accuracy of measurement of cardiocycle duration in systems for monitoring of cardiac rhythm variability parameters based on no more than 10% deviation of diagnostic characteristics was shown to provide the measuring error of no more than 4 msec at histogram grouping interval 10 msec. An increase in the grouping interval duration causes a decrease in the sensitivity of diagnostic parameters to patient state and diagnostic mistakes.

[A "neuromyo-test-response 01" device for neuromuscular function control during anesthesia].

The paper outlines the technical data and procedure of using a new "neuromyotest-response-01" device designed by the Novye Pribory (New Devices) Medical Engineering Center (Samara) for estimation of the level of neuromuscular block.
