For many individuals, sleeping with the right pillow can help them win the war against snoring. This is because your sleep position can dramatically affect how much you snore and how much this impacts your sleep quality. When you sleep, your airway relaxes and narrows causing your tongue to fall backwards. As a result, your throat wall vibrates as you breathe and causes you to snore. ...
The sleep apnea device market has undergone rapid transformation, driven by growing awareness about the consequences associated with disruptive or poor sleep conditions. Sleep apnea is a severe sleeping disorder in which a person experiences interruptive breathing or loud snoring. Long-term untreated or undiagnosed sleep apnea can cause several health problems, such as daytime sleepiness, ...
Accuracy in medical coding is a vital aspect in aiding clinical trial operation success. It has presented an excellent opportunity for medical coders, working hand-in-hand with AI-enhanced computer-assisted coding systems, to quickly identify and validate the correct codes. Using natural language processing (NLP) and advanced Machine Learning algorithms, AI is transforming medical coding by ...

An optical breath analyzer A noninvasive medical device incorporating a range of technologies allows for full portability and almost instantaneous TB test results. ...
Jody: First, I saw an ophthalmologist who diagnosed me with scleritis. He told me it was most likely caused by an autoimmune disease, such as Lupus or Rheumatoid Arthritis. ...
Moisture matters. Just ask any runner who’s slogged through a steamy afternoon. The same can be said for medical professionals trying to analyze a person’s breath. Here’s what happens. Humidity Can Impact Accuracy and Damage Equipment During medical procedures, an anesthesiologist measures the concentration of carbon dioxide in a patient’s breath. They do this ...
I continued to suffer from migraines so significantly that my primary care physician referred me to a neurologist for a medical help. This neurologist diagnosed me with a rare genetic disease in which one of the main presenting symptoms is migraines. ...

The testing enables clinicians and field scientists to diagnose infection by the parasitic worms that cause intestinal schistosomiasis and STH. ...
CT scans interpretation is no longer strictly related to the machine. They can be analysed with specialised software that allows for diagnosis, surgical and dental procedures planning. So, medical doctors can analyse and determine the step–by–step procedure in the actual phase with a computer. There are presented some real examples computed with Mimics software. Keywords: CT scans, ...
Medical information systems have recently gained momentum as a proof-of-concept of the efficiency of new support-oriented technologies, in particular, semantic technologies. In principle, diagnosis or medicine advisory and recommendation can change the current biomedical IT landscape, providing intelligent reasoning and inference support. This paper presents S-SoDiA, a social diagnosis advisor ...
The diagnosis of clinically mute diabetes mellitus (DM) is based on a nominal concentration of fasting peripheral venous plasma glucose (f-vPG) at ≥7.0mmol/l, to be exceeded by first and confirmatory measurement. Aim: to identify error sources in the clinical use of biochemical data, to use the diagnostic concept for clinically mute DM. Materials and methods: error contributors were established. ...
