Measurement of pulsatile limb and finger blood flow by electrical impedance plethysmography: Criteria for the diagnosis of abnormal flow

TLDR
The range of pulsatile arm and finger blood flow, measured by electrical impedance plethysmography, has been investigated in a hospital ward and was found to be too wide to be used as a standard for identifying single blood flow readings as being abnormal.

Combined use of laser Doppler flowmetry and skin thermometry for functional diagnostics of intradermal finger vessels.

TL;DR: The obtained results suggest that monitoring of blood microcirculation during the occlusion, performed in conjunction with the skin temperature measurements in the thermally stabilized medium, has a great potential for quantitative assessment of angiospatic dysfunctions of the peripheral blood vessels.

Non-invasive blood glucose measurement

TL;DR: Preliminary study using the developed device has shown that prediction of blood glucose using this design device could achieve relevant for measurement accuracy compared to gold standard measurement, the hand prick invasive measurement, and support that there is an ample scope in blood electrical study for the non-invasive blood glucose measurement.

Blood flow in the upper limb during brachial plexus anaesthesia.

TL;DR: It is suggested that the adrenaline contained in the local anaesthetic solution increased the cardiac output and caused arterial vasoconstriction at the site of injection.

Venous occlusion plethysmography in patients with cold related symptoms after digital salvage procedures

TL;DR: Fourteen patients who had undergone microsurgical salvage of one or more digits were interviewed and examined and no relationship between arterial inflow and cold intolerance nor nerve function was found, however a tendency for worsening cold intolerance to be associated with poorer nerve function.

Measurement of cardiac output by electrical impedance plethysmography.

TL;DR: Values for cardiac output obtained by impedance plethysmography are best assessed by comparison with a series of normal values obtained by this technique, rather than withvalues obtained by other methods.
