Results obtained during the development of an original device for noninvasive transcutaneous stimulation of the diaphragm using electromagnetic radiation in the terahertz frequency range are presented. The block diagram and design of a terahertz emitter and a controlled current source for its power supply are presented, along with specialized software for selecting and setting the amplitude and time parameters of the stimulating signal.

CDI is responsible for 15-25% of all anti-biotic-associated diarrhea cases, with a considerable increase in the 21st century [2]. Recommended first-line therapy for CDI involves oral vancomycin [1].

Methods: Prospective interventional cohort study with a controlled group in a single cardiosurgical ICU involving 119 patients following on-pump CABG surgery. During the 1st postoperative hour, the intervention group patients were ventilated with Vt 10 ml × kg, RR 14/min, PEEP 5 cmHO ("conventional ventilation").
Unlabelled: Background The presence ofpulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) in pregnant women increases mortality up to 12- 30% and up to 50% when PAH is associated with Eisenmenger syndrome. Due to low prevalence of PAH in pregnancy many aspects ofperioperative management are still unclear.
The Aim: To summarize our approaches to the anesthesia and intensive care in pregnant women with PAH.
