Electroventilation, L A. Geddes, William D. Voorhees, Charles F. Babbs, J A. Deford Jan 1985

Electroventilation, L A. Geddes, William D. Voorhees, Charles F. Babbs, J A. Deford

Weldon School of Biomedical Engineering Faculty Publications

Electroventilation is a term used to describe the production of inspiration by applying rhythmic bursts of short duration stimuli to extrathoracic electrodes to stimulate motor nerves to the inspiratory muscles. In the dog, the optimum site for the electrodes was found to be on the upper chest wall, bilaterally. The inspired volume increased with increasing current intensity. The maximum tidal volume attainable was about four times resting tidal volume. The ability of electroventilation to maintain arterial blood oxygen saturation without the production of cardiac arrhythmias was demonstrated in pentobarbital-anesthetized dogs. The technique has several potential applications and offers promise in …


Joseph S. Redding's Contributions To Cardiac Resuscitation, Sandra H. Ralston, Charles F. Babbs Jan 1985

Joseph S. Redding's Contributions To Cardiac Resuscitation, Sandra H. Ralston, Charles F. Babbs

Weldon School of Biomedical Engineering Faculty Publications

The experimental studies conducted by the late Joseph S. Redding over the past three decades with his students and colleagues form the scientific basis for many aspects of present cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). Redding's research was characterized by its elegance, simplicity, common-sense reasoning, and clinical relevance. Much of his work conducted in the 1960's anticipated with uncanny accuracy some of the most actively discussed issues in resuscitation today (Table 1). Most interesting are Redding's classic studies related to diastolic arterial pressure and myocardial perfusion during CPR, abdominal binding, acid-base status, and use of methoxamine versus other adrenergic drugs for cardiac resuscitation. …

Irradiation-Hyperthermia In Canine Hemangiopericytomas: Large-Animal Model For Therapeutic Response, Ralph C. Richardson, Virgil L. Anderson, William D. Voorhees, William E. Blevins, Tammy K. Inskeep, Wolfgang Janas, Robert E. Shupe, Charles F. Babbs Nov 1984

Weldon School of Biomedical Engineering Faculty Publications

Results of irradiation-hyperthermia treatment in 11 dogs with naturally occurring hemangiopericytomas are reported. Similarities of canine and human hemangiopericytomas are described. Orthovoltage X-irradiation followed by microwaveinduced hyperthermia resulted in a 91% objective response rate. A statistical procedure was given to evaluate quantitatively the clinical behavior of locally invasive, nonmetastatic tumors in dogs that were undergoing therapy for control of local disease. The procedure used a small sample size and demonstrated distribution of the data on a scaled response as well as transformation of the data through classical parametric and nonparametric statistical methods. These statistical methods set confidence limits on the …

The objective of this research is to extend the flexibility a,hd . 'usefulness. of current industrial robots by the integration of robot motion control directly into a. general purpose programming language, the development of force feedback and its integration into the language, the formulation of a high-level task description language RTM, and by the investigation of both off-line collision-free path planning and on-line collision avoidance.

Spectral Estimates Of Agronomic Characteristics Of Crops, C. S. T. Daughtry, K. P. Gallo, L. L. Biehl, Blaine L. Blad, John M. Norman, Bronson R. Gardner, E. T. Kanemasu, G. Asrar

LARS Technical Reports

If agronomic variables related to vigor and yield of crops could be reliably estimated from multispectral data, then crop growth and yield models could be implemented for large areas. The objectives of these experiments were to determine relationships of key agronomic characteristics and spectral properties of crops and to integrate spectral and meteorological data for forecasting crop yields. Reflectance data of corn, wheat, and soybeans were acquired with radiometers that simulate Landsat MSS and TM sensors. The spectral indices, greenness, and normalized difference were highly correlated with leaf area index (LAI) and absorbed photosynthetically active radiation (APAR). Grain yields were …
