Transporting spontaneously ventilating adults with tracheostomies from the operating room (OR) or other anesthetizing locations to the intensive care unit (ICU) or other recovery locations presents significant challenges, as traditional T-pieces may not be readily available. This article describes a novel modification to the Ayre's T-piece, designed to address this gap by using readily available equipment. The modification integrates a 3-mL syringe, a size 7.

Background: Some practitioners "prime" small IV angiocatheter needles with 0.9% sodium chloride-claiming this modification speeds visual detection of blood in the angiocatheter flash chamber on vessel cannulation.
Methods: We compared the time required for human blood to travel the length of saline-primed and saline-unprimed 24- and 22-gauge angiocatheter needles (Introcan Safety IV Catheter; B.

A fully automated sequential-injection-capillary electrophoresis (SI-CE) system was developed using commercially available components as the syringe pump, the selection and injection valves and the high voltage power supply. The interface connecting the SI with the CE unit consisted of two T-pieces, where the capillary was inserted in one T-piece and a Pt electrode in the other (grounded) T-piece. By pressurising the whole system using a syringe pump, hydrodynamic injection was feasible.

Measurement of ventilation, in particular in preterm infants, is greatly impaired by equipment dead space, with its significant effect on the ventilatory pattern and gas exchange. For patients of this age, therefore, dead-spacefree methods are needed for long-term measurements. Rebreathing can be avoided if the pneumotachograph (PNT) and face mask are flushed with a continuous background flow.
