11. Rib and Thoracic Response in Frontal Car Crashes: A Study Using a Finite Element Human Body Model
Sammanfattning : Traditionally, restraint systems have been evaluated with Anthropomorphic Test Devices (ATDs) and the thoracic injury criteria have been based on parameters assessed using ATDs, such as chest compression. ATDs have limitations since they are only a gross representation of the human body. LÄS MER
12. Transpulmonary pressure during mechanical ventilation
Sammanfattning : Background: Mechanical ventilation can aggravate lung injury by repetitive opening and closing of lung units, overdistention and undue pressure on pulmonary structures. Guidelines exist for lung protective ventilation, but individualized ventilator settings, based on partitioning of respiratory mechanics in pulmonary and chest wall complex components, would be beneficial.

13. Validity and reliability of vehicle collis : crash pulse recorders for impact severity and injury risk assessment in real-life frontal impacts
Sammanfattning : The general objectives of this thesis were to study the importance of valid and reliable data from real- life collisions, especially the effects of inaccurate data on analyses of eg injury risks. Furthermore an objective was to develop and validate an on-board measurement device for acceleration measurements, to be used in reconstructions of primarily frontal impacts. LÄS MER

15. Glossopharyngeal breathing
Sammanfattning : Introduction and aims: The technique of glossopharyngeal breathing was introduced already in the 1950 s, but today, few health professionals are aware of its uses. The technique is performed by using the glossopharyngeal muscles to piston boluses of air into the lungs. LÄS MER
