  • lung perfusion blood volume computed tomographic images of pulmonary embolism
    Circulation, 2009
    Co-Authors: Eijun Sueyoshi, Shin Tsutsui, Ichiro Sakamoto, Masataka Uetani, Koji Maemura
    Abstract:

    A 43-year-old woman was admitted with right Leg Edema and pain. She had previously been prescribed low-dose oral contraceptive pills for dysmenorrhea associated with endometriosis for 2 years. Thromboses in the right superficial femoral vein were seen on venous Doppler ultrasound examination. At that time, there were no signs and symptoms of pulmonary embolism. For pulmonary embolism screening, computed tomographic (CT) study with the use of a dual-energy CT scanner (Somatom Definition scanner, Siemens Medical Systems, Forchheim, …

  • response of pregnancy Leg Edema to a single immersion exercise session
    Obstetrical & Gynecological Survey, 2006
    Co-Authors: Sabine Hartmann, Renate Huch
    Abstract:

    Dependent Leg Edema is not uncommon in pregnant women and may cause pain with each step. In addition to compression stockings and Leg elevation, immersing the extremities in water is beneficial. This prospective trial evaluated a single session of immersion exercise in 9 women 32 to 36 years of age who had marked Edema but otherwise uncomplicated pregnancies at 25 to 39 weeks gestation. Only one of the women was parous. A few hours after the midday meal, the women had a 45-minute session of upright water immersion exercise. A vest, worn like a backpack, kept the wearer afloat and immersed to the axilla without the need for extremity movements. After warming up for 5 minutes, the women performed coordination exercises for 10 minutes and a range of running sequences for 30 minutes. Lower Leg volume was measured in triplicate by the displacement method using a polyurethane vessel with an overflow device. Supine lower Leg circumference also was measured before and after immersion exercise. A single session decreased the volume of both Legs by an average of 6.3% on the left and 4.9% on the right. Lower Leg circumference decreased significantly on both sides. Maternal heart rate did not change significantly after immersion exercise, but during the session, the rate increased by 15 beats per minute on average. Systolic blood pressure increased significantly 1 minute after exercise, from 124 to 130 mm Hg, and nearly significantly after 5 minutes. Diastolic blood pressure, however, remained unchanged. The women felt very positively about the beneficial effects of immersion exercise on Leg Edema. A single 45-minute session of immersion exercise effectively-and safely-improved marked lower Leg Edema in these women. This form of exercise could complement or supplant the use of compression stockings as a means of reducing dependent Edema in pregnant women.

  • response of pregnancy Leg Edema to a single immersion exercise session
    Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, 2005
    Co-Authors: Sabine Hartmann, Renate Huch
    Abstract:

    Background. To quantify the effect of a single immersion exercise session on uncomplicated dependent Edema in pregnancy. Methods. Lower Leg volume was measured by water displacement volumetry and limb circumference in nine women with marked dependent Edema, but otherwise normal second or third trimester pregnancy, before and after upright water immersion exercise session (Aqua-Fit ® ) for 45 min. Maternal heart rate was monitored continuously throughout the session. Blood pressure was measured before and after the session. Results. Mean left Leg volume decreased by 112 ml from 1665 to 1553 ml, and right Leg volume by 84 ml from 1665 to 1581 ml ( P = 0.007). Cardiovascular parameters fluctuated within the normal range, well below the upper limits recommended in pregnancy. Conclusions. A single immersion exercise session is a safe, effective, and enjoyable complement, or alternative, to compression stockings for reduction of gestational dependent Edema. Further study is required to determine its duration of...
