Monitoring a patient’s oxygen status during anesthesia using pulse oximetry is essential. The new Oxygen Reserve Index (ORI) may help provide clinicians real-time visibility to oxygenation in a moderate hypoxic range and serve as a warning of an…
Aim of the study is to determine how often muscle strength measurements should be repeated, using a hand-held dynamometer to obtain a maximal muscle strength measurement
The null-hypothesis predicts that Inlife is not feasible. The alternative hypothesis predicts that the Inlife intervention is evaluated as being feasible. We expect the alternative hypothesis to be true. Inlife will be feasible and minor revisions…
The EuraHS-QoL questionnaire is a valid instrument to measure quality-of-life before and after ventral hernia repair.
We expect that mp-MRI, molecular urine test and Prostate Cancer Risk Calculator may be of additional value in differentiating between significant and insignificant cancers in men with an elevated PSA in the primairy diagnosis. If so, it will result…
