Health Technology Assessment is a weekly peer-reviewed open access medical journal published by the National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR), [1] [2] a research partner of the United Kingdom National Health Service. It publishes research on the evaluations of health technologies, their effectiveness, cost and broader impact. [3]
The National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR) is the British government's major funder of clinical, public health, social care and translational research. [3] With a budget of over £1.2 billion in 2020–21, [4] its mission is to "improve the health and wealth of the nation through research". [5]
The EUnetHTA Joint Action 2 (2012–2015) continued the activities of Joint Action 1 (2010–2012) on October 1, 2012, and developed a general strategy, principles and an implementation proposal for a sustainable European HTA collaboration according to the requirements of Article 15 of the Directive for cross-border healthcare.
Monitoring the decompression chamber during a simulated medical emergency. Hyperbaric treatment schedules or hyperbaric treatment tables, are planned sequences of events in chronological order for hyperbaric pressure exposures specifying the pressure profile over time and the breathing gas to be used during specified periods, for medical treatment.
In December, User:Adam Harangozó (NIHR WiR) joined at the NIHR's Wikimedian in Residence (WiR) on a six-month pilot initiative. [1] The aim is to help the NIHR share information on Wikipedia, improving the coverage of medical topics. Adam will be engaging NIHR staff and users, members of the public, to encourage contributions to Wikipedia.
The pulse is the rate at which the heart beats while pumping blood through the arteries, recorded as beats per minute (bpm). [11] It may also be called "heart rate". In addition to providing the heart rate, the pulse should also be evaluated for strength and obvious rhythm abnormalities. [11] The pulse is commonly taken at the wrist (radial ...
The test score is the time taken on the test, in minutes. This can also be converted to an estimated maximal oxygen uptake score using the calculator below and the following formulas, where the value "T" is the total time completed (expressed in minutes and fractions of a minute e.g. 9 minutes 15 seconds = 9.25 minutes).
A normal minute volume while resting is about 5–8 liters per minute in humans. [1] Minute volume generally decreases when at rest, and increases with exercise. For example, during light activities minute volume may be around 12 litres. Riding a bicycle increases minute ventilation by a factor of 2 to 4 depending on the level of exercise involved.
