Noninvasive Stroke Volume Monitoring by Electrical Impedance Tomography

Fabian Braun

In clinical practice it is of vital importance to track the health of a patient's cardiovascular system via the continuous measurement of hemodynamic parameters. Cardiac output (CO) and the related stroke volume (SV) are two such parameters of central inte ...

Design, manufacturing and implementation of a novel 2-axis force sensor for haptic applications

Reymond Clavel

Minimally invasive surgeries on the lungs have eliminated the ability for surgeons to place their hands on the patient's organ to feel for abnormalities. Therefore, in this paper, a force sensor for 2 degrees of freedom haptic applications is described. It ...
