Combining Ostom-I With Abstats Sensors to Improve Prediction of Ostomy Output
Currently, the number of patients having either permanent or temporary stomas placed is increasing each year. Yet, patients with ostomy pouches often struggle with predicting when stool ou...
Evaluation of New Method for Measuring Stool Consistency
This study is designed to validate a new direct method for the measurement of stool consistency, using Texture Analyser. Forty healthy subjects are enrolled in this trial for collection of...
The primary efficacy objective was to determine and compare stool composition (stool soap and non-soap fatty acids, total fatty acids, minerals, and other stool constituents) among the fee...
A Pilot Evaluation of Adhesives and How They Are Impacted by Out-put
The study investigates the impact real output (subjects own) and simulated output have on the adhesion of adhesives.
Cardiac Output Measurement at the Conclusion of Cardiopulmonary Bypass
Cardiac output, the amount of blood pumped by the heart in one minute, will be measured in pediatric patients undergoing surgery involving cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Cardiac output will...

Medical and Biotech [MESH] Definitions
Cardiac Output, High
A state of elevated cardiac output due to conditions of either increased hemodynamic demand or reduced cardiac oxygen output. These conditions may include ANEMIA; ARTERIOVENOUS FISTULA; THYROTOXICOSIS; PREGNANCY; EXERCISE; FEVER; and ANOXIA. In time, compensatory changes of the heart can lead to pathological form of high cardiac output and eventual HEART FAILURE.
Cardiac Output, Low
A state of subnormal or depressed cardiac output at rest or during stress. It is a characteristic of CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASES, including congenital, valvular, rheumatic, hypertensive, coronary, and cardiomyopathic. The serious form of low cardiac output is characterized by marked reduction in STROKE VOLUME, and systemic vasoconstriction resulting in cold, pale, and sometimes cyanotic extremities.
Computer Terminals
Input/output devices designed to receive data in an environment associated with the job to be performed, and capable of transmitting entries to, and obtaining output from, the system of which it is a part. (Computer Dictionary, 4th ed.)
Oliguria
Decreased URINE output that is below the normal range. Oliguria can be defined as urine output of less than or equal to 0.5 or 1 ml/kg/hr depending on the age.
Fecal Impaction
Formation of a firm impassable mass of stool in the RECTUM or distal COLON.
