Hands at work: A randomised cross-over mannequin-based trial exploring the impact of hand preference of health care professionals on effectiveness of chest compressions.

Aim And Background: There are various theories regarding the ideal hand to be in contact with chest during chest compressions when healthcare professionals and medical students perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). Our study aimed to compare the impact of preferred versus non-preferred hand placement on chest on the CPR quality.

Methodology: The volunteers were randomised to place their preferred (P)/non-preferred (NP) hand over sternum for the first session and switch hands for the second.

Evaluation of aneurysm flow divertor (stent) treatment using multi-angled 1000 fps High-Speed Angiography (HSA) and Optical Flow (OF).

Understanding detailed hemodynamics is critical in the treatment of aneurysms and other vascular diseases; however, traditional digital subtraction angiography (DSA) does not provide detailed quantitative flow information. Instead, 1000 fps High-Speed Angiography (HSA) can be used for high-temporal visualization and evaluation of detailed blood flow patterns and velocity distributions. In the treatment of aneurysms, flow diverter expansion and positioning play a critical role in affecting the hemodynamics and optimal patient outcomes.

Use of a Nasal Cannula as a Preoxygenation Adjunct: A Randomized Crossover Study.

Background: Preoxygenation prior to induction of general anesthesia is intended to increase the oxygen reserve in the lungs. This technique delays the onset of hypoxemia during the placement of the tracheal tube.

Objective: To observe the benefits of oxygen through nasal cannula when used as an adjunct during preoxygenation.

Generating colloquial radiology reports with large language models.

Objectives: Patients are increasingly being given direct access to their medical records. However, radiology reports are written for clinicians and typically contain medical jargon, which can be confusing. One solution is for radiologists to provide a "colloquial" version that is accessible to the layperson.
