How does a pregnancy test work?

Fri, 10 May 2013 01:30:02 -0400

When pregnant, placenta of a woman secrets a specific hormone, called hCG (human chorionic gonadotrophin). hCG maintains progesterone production that is critical for a pregnancy in humans. Through circulation, hCG accumulates in urine. Once the level of hCG reaches a certain level, it will be detectable by the test strip which will show a positive result to announce your pregnancy.A test strip is equipped with a type of special reagent which reacts and binds to hCG. While urine and dye touches the reagent area, hCG will bind with the reagent and dye, and thus shows a positive result of pregnancy. Very few factors have impact on the result, but correct operation is very important to avoid erroneous result.Note, urine test is easy to do anywhere, while your doctor may do a blood test which tells exact hCG level other than just telling positive/negative in urine test.

Question for Microlife PF100 Digital Peak Flow Meter/FEV1 Monitor : Is this considered a full range or low range peak flow meter?

Flu Frequently Asked Questions

Wed, 01 May 2013 01:30:02 -0400

Flu Frequently Asked QuestionsWhat are the symptoms of h1n1 flu? Symptoms are similar to those for seasonal influenza. Those symptoms include:□Fever over 100oF*□Cough and/or sore throat □Body aches and headache.□In addition, fatigue, lack of appetite, runny nose, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea can occur.* clinical guard Provides non-contact thermometers to help you monitor your flu symptoms.Who is at risk and should contact a doctor if they have these symptoms? □Children under 2 years old□pregnant women □Adults over 65 years old □Residents of long-term care facilities □People with chronic lung, heart, kidney or liver disease □People with diabetes □People with sickle cell anemia □People with immunosuppression or receiving chemotherapy for cancer□Anyone with fever and severe respiratory symptoms such as shortness of breath or difficulty breathing should contact their healthcare provider.How long should people with flu-like illness stay home? People with flu symptoms should keep away from others as much as possible (do not travel, go to school, go to work, etc.) for at least 24 hours after the fever is gone without the use of fever-reducing medicine.□This guidance does not apply to health care settings where the exclusion period should be continued for 7 days from symptom onset or until the resolution of symptoms, whichever is longer. □Sick individuals should stay at home until the end of the exclusion period, to the extent possible, except when necessary to seek required medical care. □CDC recommends this exclusion period regardless of whether or not antiviral medications are used. How do people catch H1N1? You can become infected by the H1N1 virus when someone infected with H1N1 coughs or sneezes, releasing droplets carrying the virus near you. You can then take in the virus through your mouth, nose or eyes. You can also get the virus by touching a surface such as a countertop or doorknob that has become contaminated and then touching your mouth, nose or eyes. How long are people contagious?Infected people can infect others beginning 1 day before symptoms start and up to 7 or more days after becoming sick. That means that you may be able to pass on the flu to someone else before you know you are sick, as well as while you are sick. Children, especially younger children, might potentially be contagious for longer periods. How long can you be infected without showing symptoms/getting sick?Not all infected people get sick but, if an infected person develops symptoms, it usually happens 1-7 days after infection.Should I wear a mask?A facemask or respirator may be considered, specifically for persons at increased risk of severe illness from influenza.□Facemasks help stop droplets from being spread by the person wearing them. They do not protect against breathing in very small particle aerosols that may contain viruses. Facemasks should be used once and then thrown away in the trash. □A respirator that fits snugly on the face can filter out virus-containing small particle aerosols that can be generated by an infected person, but compared with a facemask it is harder to breathe through a respirator for long periods of time. Respirators are not recommended for children or people who have facial hair. □Neither a facemask nor a respirator will give complete protection from the flu. That is why it is important to wash your hands often, cover your coughs and sneezes with a handkerchief or your arm, and avoid crowds and gatherings during a pandemic.How long can the H1N1 virus live on a countertop or other surface? The virus can live on hard surfaces for at least several hours and possibly more than a day. For that reason, it is important that you wash your hands after coughing or sneezing to avoid passing on the virus. How do I clean to get rid of influenza viruses?To prevent the spread of influenza virus it is important to keep surfaces (especially bedside tables, surfaces in the bathroom, kitchen counters and toys for children) clean by wiping them down with a household disinfectant according to directions on the product label. Where do I get tested for H1N1? Individuals are no longer being tested for H1N1, because we know it is already in our community, and we no longer need to track it geographically. However, hospitalized patients with flu-like illness are being tested for it because what we are now trying to determine is if it is causing more serious illness, hospitalizations or deaths. How should linens, eating utensils and dishes of persons infected with influenza virus be handled? □Linens, eating utensils and dishes belonging to those who are sick do not need to be cleaned separately, but these items should be washed thoroughly before being used by anyone else. Linens (such as bed sheets and towels) should be washed by using household laundry soap and tumbled dry on a hot setting. To avoid contaminating themselves, individuals should transport dirty laundry in a bag or other container rather than handling it closely or for a prolonged period. Individuals should wash their hands with soap and water or alcohol-based hand rub immediately after handling dirty laundry. □Eating utensils should be washed either in a dishwasher or by hand with water and soap. If I have the flu, should I breast-feed my baby? □Avoid contact with your baby until you have been on antiviral medicine for 48 hours, have not had a fever for 24 hours and you can control your coughs and sneezes. During this time, you do not have to stop breast-feeding. We encourage you to pump and have someone who is not ill feed breast milk to your baby until you can handle your baby without the risk of infection again.□Once you have been cleared to have contact with your baby, please wear a mask and change into clean clothes until 7 days after the flu-like symptoms began to keep from spreading this new virus to your baby. What if I have the flu and don't have anyone else who can take care of my baby? If you are sick and there is no one else to care for your baby, wear a facemask, if available and tolerable, and cover your mouth and nose with a tissue when coughing or sneezing.Is it ok to take medicine to treat or prevent flu while I am breast-feeding? Yes.If my baby is sick, is it ok to breast-feed? Yes. One of the best things you can do for your sick baby is keep breast-feeding. □Give your baby many chances to breastfeed throughout the illness. Babies who are sick need more fluids than when they are well. □If your baby is too sick to breastfeed, he or she can drink your milk from a cup, bottle,syringe, or eye-dropper.What should people with HIV/AIDS do if they have flu symptoms? HIV-infected people should do the same things as they would do for routine seasonal flu- contact your health care provider and follow his or her instructions. When will H1N1 vaccine be available? The earliest we expect to receive a supply is in mid-October. It is possible that limited supplies of the vaccine will mean that those most at risk of severe infections will be first to get vaccinated. More information about when the vaccine will be available and who will get it will be publicized as soon as more is known. Can the seasonal flu shot protect me against H1N1?No. But it is important to get a seasonal flu shot to help you avoid getting a co-infection and to limit opportunities for the H1N1 virus to become resistant to antiviral edications.Can I get the seasonal flu shot and the H1N1 shot at the same time? Yes, although the seasonal flu shot is expected to be available earlier than the H1N1 vaccine, and the CDC recommends getting the seasonal flu shot as soon as it is available.How will H1N1 vaccine be administered? For now, it is expected to be administered in two injections given 21 days apart. An aerosol (mist)vaccine is also being developed, but people with certain underlying health conditions will not be able to take it. Also, as more is known about the vaccine, administration guidelines may change. Where can I get H1N1 vaccine? Local public health officials are working with a variety of partners to make the vaccine available in a variety of settings. Once details are finalized, the locations for the vaccine will be heavily publicized. What will the H1N1 vaccine cost? The federal government is providing it at no charge. However, in some settings, administration fees will be charged.Will the H1N1 vaccinations be mandatory? No.What are antivirals? They are prescription medicines (pills, liquid or an inhaled powder) that fight against the flu by keeping flu viruses from reproducing in your body. □If you get sick, antiviral drugs can make your illness milder and make you feel better faster.□They may also prevent serious flu complications.Can't I just take antivirals if I get exposed to the flu? Antivirals are being recommended for treatment of H1N1, not for prophylaxis (to prevent symptoms) except for individuals who are high risk of complications (hospitalization or death) from the flu. What antivirals are approved for use against pandemic h1n1 flu? CDC recommends the use of oseltamivir or zanamivir for the treatment and/or prevention of infection with swine influenza viruses. However, some strains of h1n1 flu have been found to be resistant to oseltamivir (Tamiflu ). □oseltamivir (brand name Tamiflu)is approved to both treat and prevent influenza A and B virus infection in people one year of age and older.□Zanamivir (brand name relenza)is approved to treat influenza A and B virus infection in people 7 years and older and to prevent influenza A and B virus infection in people 5 years and older.□Recommendations for using antiviral drugs for treatment or prevention of swine influenza will change as we learn more about this new virus.Can I get swine flu from eating pork or ham? No, you cannot get h1n1 flu in that way. H1N1 is passed from person to person through coughing or sneezing, or by touching a surface that an infected person has coughed or sneezed on and then touching your mouth, nose or eyes. I am in contact with pigs. Can I catch the flu from them? Yes. The H1N1 virus has been found in pigs in other countries, including Canada. To prevent flu viruses from spreading between people and pigs, it is important for people working with pigs to recognize the signs of flu in pigs. Typically a combination of signs will occur together in infected pigs. Signs of flu in pigs can include any of the following: □Sudden onset of fever □Lethargy, lack of alertness □Going off feed (poor appetite)□Coughing (barking) □Discharge from the nose or eyes, eye redness or inflammation □Sneezing □Breathing difficulty If pigs I am around have flu symptoms, what should I do? □If a pig is showing these signs, even mildly, you should call your veterinarian. □Do not allow sick pigs to enter your farm or facility and do not move sick pigs off your property. Is there a risk from drinking water? Tap water that has been treated by conventional disinfection processes does not likely pose a risk for transmission of influenza viruses.* Article Source: http://www.cobbanddouglaspublichealth.org/News/Resources/Flu%20FAQs.pdf

CMS 50QB Pediatric Finger Pulse Oximeter - OLED

Mon, 29 Apr 2013 01:30:03 -0400

Package Contents 1 x CMS 50QB Pediatric finger pulse oximeter Colors may vary. The available colors are Baby Blue, Powder Pink and Pastel Yellow. 1 x Rechargeable Battery (Installed) with USB PC/wall charger 1 x Necx/Wrist cord 1 x Instruction manual 1 x free pulse oximeter case Description The CMS50QB Pediatric finger pulse oximeter is designed from the ground up with children in mind. From the designers of the popular CMS 50B and 50E adult finger pulse oximeter comes the latest offering from Contec Medical Systems. All oximeters are specially designed to detect both the pulse rate and blood oxygen saturation level (spo2). The CMS50QB is made with a smaller foot print along with a new software algorithm and sensor that are specifically made with the physical parameters for children. The sensor is calibrated to the thinner skin surface of children, whose skin could be as little as 0.3 inches (8mm). The oximeter opening where one would insert the finger is also specifically miniaturized for pediatric care and pediatric nursing. This helps prevent ambient light from entering the orifice that could cause inaccuracies in the reading. This product is recommended for use on children ages 2 to 13, with a minimum body weight of 33 lbs, or 15kg. The bright OLED display allows for six separate display modes, suitable for viewing from multiple angles. The display orientation can also be changed to help the person better see the oximetry reading. The most innovative feature in this product is its built-in heartbeat tracker. This auditory blip helps keep track of the heart as its beating without having to look at the display visually. An auditory alarm is also included that would detect when the heartrate or spo2 exceeds a preset specification. This product is covered by a 1-year limited warranty. Features Ergonomic design without sharp edges to help avoid injury to the child. Multi-color OLED display with multiple display modes, including: Orientation change for easier reading heart beat displayed as bar graph or wave form Auditory alarm for when readings exceed preset specifications heart beat tracking sound Indicator for low power Automatic shut-off for when no finger is detected. Extended Specifications Measurement of spo2 Measuring range: 0%100 Accuracy: When the spo2 measuring range is 70%100,the permission of absolute error is ±2Below 70% unspecified Measurement of pulse rate Measuring range:30bpm250bpm Accuracy: ±2 bpm or ±2% (select larger) Resolution spo2 : 1%, pulse rate: 1bpm. Measurement Performance in Weak Filling Condition: spo2 and pulse rate can be shown correctly when pulse-filling ratio is 0.4%. spo2 error is ±4%, pulse rate error is ±2 bpm or ±2% (select larger). Resistance to surrounding light The deviation between the value measured in the condition of man-made light or indoor natural light and that of darkroom is less than ±1%. Power supply requirement 3.6 V DC ~ 4.2V DC Rechargeable battery

What is Fetal Heart Monitoring

Tue, 23 Apr 2013 01:30:01 -0400

What is fetal heart monitoring?What is fetal heart monitoring?fetal heart monitoring is the way that the doctor or yourself may use to monitor the health condition of the fetus by listening to the fetal heart rate (FHR) and keep track of it (the fetal heart rate of the baby/fetus) during the pregnancy, labor and delivery. Two main methods of fetal heart monitoring can tell you whether the fetus in the uterus is doing well or may have some problems.What are the different types of fetal heart monitoring methods or devices?fetal heart monitoring can be categorized as external and internal methods.The external fetal monitoring can be performed by a stethoscope and fetal heart doppler. A fetal heart doppler measures FHR through continuous ultrasonic waves and thus helps people determine the situation of the fetus. fetal doppler gives a clearer heart beat of the fetus than the stethoscope and can detect and pick up the fetal heart beat after 8 weeks gestation with 2MHz & 3MHz probes. The fetal doppler with 2mhz probe works better for overweight women or women in the third trimester of pregnancy. The reflection of a 3MHz probe is better than the lower frequency 2 MHz except in above conditions.When we are monitoring fetal heart rate with a fetal heart doppler, an average normal fetal heart rate should be between 120-180 BPM (Beats Per Minute). If the heart beat is not within the range, then the fetus may be in abnormal condition, such as cord compression, fetal hypoxia, fetal distress and fetal heart block etc. If you are monitoring the fetus heart rate yourselves and notice abnormal heart beats, please see your healthcare professionals ASAP.fetal heart doppler works well as an external method of monitoring. Scientific research shows that, the ultrasonic fetal doppler does no harm to mothers and the fetus if it is used for not more than 10 minutes per session.There is another method of fetal monitoring called internal monitoring. This can be done only after the water is broken. In this method, an electrode is attached to the baby’s scalp during delivery so that the fetus’ heartbeat can be heard and printed out on a chart. It is a totally different method with different principles.Despite that internal monitoring is more accurate than external method, its use is limited to hospital and healthcare professionals due to its difficulty and possible complications involved.How many types of fetal dopplers are there?There are two different types of hand-held fetal dopplers, analog and digital. The analog fetal doppler emits the audible sound of the fetal heart beat without a digital display. A digital Doppler is equipped with a small LCD screen which gives FHR during the test. The digital Doppler display provides a range between 50-210 bpm.Disclaimer:The information on this website aims to provide customers with relevant knowledge regarding our products.

Combo Pack: 40 (LH) Ovulation Test Strips + 10 Early Detection (HCG) Pregnancy Test Strips

Tue, 16 Apr 2013 01:30:02 -0400

Package Contents 40 x FDA approve LH ovulation test Strips 10 x HCG pregnancy test Strip - FDA Approved Instruction Leaflet Desiccant* *The desiccant is for storage purposes only, and is not used in the test procedures. Leaflet with instructions for use. Description HCG pregnancy test Strip - FDA Approved Easy to use, with an immediate display of the outcome makes hCG Urine Test Strips an ideal choice to determine pregnancy by detecting the presence of the hormone, human chorionic gonadotropin. Human chorionic gonadotropin, or hCG, is a hormone which is produced by the developing placenta shortly after conception and secreted into the urine. A hCG pregnancy test contains antibodies which specifically react with this hormone. LH ovulation test Strips - FDA Approved luteinizing hormone, or LH, is a hormone that is associated with ovulation. LH test strips are used to provide qualitative information in order to predict a LH surge, or impending ovulation. Ovulation should occur 24-48 hours following a positive test. (Sensitivity (IU/mL) of the LH tests is 25mIU and the strips can display result in less 30 seconds if the sample urine is clean) Testing Times: Determine the length of your menstrual cycle before testing. Please note: the measured time length of a menstrual cycle is the start of your first menstrual bleeding day to the day before the next bleeding begins. Refer to the sequence below to determine when you should start testing: If your cycle is shorter than 21 days or longer than 38 days, consult a physician. If you do not know your cycle length, you may begin the test 11 day after your first period, as the average cycle length is 28 days. Perform 1 test per day over a 5 day period, or until the LH surge has been detected. Reading the Results of LH ovulation test Strip: No LH Surge: The Control Region is marked with only one color band, or if two color bands are visible but the Test Band appears lighter than the Control Band, there is no LH surge. LH Surge: If two color bands are visible and the Test Band color is the same or darker than the Control Band, ovulation should begin within the next 24-48 hours. If trying to get pregnant, the best time to have intercourse is after 24 but before 48 hours. Invalid: No visible band at all. Repeat with a new test kit. If test still fails, please contact the distributor or the store where you bought the product, with the lot number.

5.0 STARS! OLED Finger Pulse Oximeter OctiveTech 300D Hi,I am a freediver and I use the 300D to monitor my training breath holds and also as a demonstration tool to show heart rate control and relaxation techniques. It has been very effective for that use. I put videos on my youtube channel http://www.youtube.com/wjohnson100 for people to see. I have only one minor suggestion for improvement of the unit and that regards the display selection. There are several options for the display format. The unit does not save your selection between uses. For me it doesn't matter because I prefer the first display format that comes up, but my suggestion is to give the option of retaining the selected display format from one use to the next. Some people might want that option. Again this is a very very minor comment. I am completely satisfied with the unit and have so far used it effectively down to 73% O2 and 32 BPM pulse and on breath holds exceding 7 minutes. I like the response time of the unit, the various display formats, the clarity, appearance, and color of the display itself, the range of measurement and accuracy of the unit, the reliability of the unit (never had a single problem with it), battery endurance, ease of use, and the convenience of its use.Regards,Walter Johnson ...

Sleep Apnea and Oximeter

Tue, 09 Apr 2013 01:30:02 -0400

sleep apnea and oximeter apnea, or 'Apnoea', is a technical term for suspension of breathing. An apnea event is defined as a breath cessation for a minimum of 10 seconds, with a neurological arousal and/or a blood oxygen desaturation of three to four or greater. sleep apnea is a breath disorder during sleep which may cause serious consequences such as heart failure. There are three types of sleep apnea are central sleep apnea, obstructive sleep apnea and complex sleep apnea (the combination of the two types). Central sleep apnea is caused by the imbalance of brain respiratory control center, while obstructive sleep apnea is caused by the obstruction of airway by decreased muscle tone or increased soft tissue around the airway (e.g. obesity or aging). obstructive sleep apnea makes up about 84% of sleep apnea cases; the complex sleep apnea makes up about 15% and the central sleep apnea makes up 0.4%. [1]The symptoms of obstructive sleep apnea commonly include loud snoring, restless sleep, and sleepiness during the daytime. The treatment of this type of sleep apnea is usually the use of breathing treatments, such as Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP). Other habits that contribute to symptoms of sleep apnea is smoking, drinking alcohol, or losing large amounts of weight. Due to the drop of oxygen level and increase of carbon dioxide level during sleep, hypoxia and hypercapnia are usually the results of central sleep apnea. Consequently, hypoxia and hypercapnia have effects on human body and could result in more serious health issues, angina, arrhythmias, heart attacks or at worst sudden death. [2]Diagnostic tests of sleep apnea include home oximetry or polysomnograph readings in a sleep clinic. oximeters that measures blood oxygen levels are a necessary device to measure normal stats in a person’s body while their asleep. According to the results of a study published in the Jan. 15 issue of the American Journal of Respiratory & Critical Care Medicine."The practical purpose of diagnostic assessment in most cases of obstructive sleep apnea is to predict which patients have symptoms that will improve on treatment. Portable monitors record primarily oxygen saturation, can be used at home without supervision, and are cheaper [than polysomnography]."OctiveTech oximeters offer a flexible and affordable way for sleep apnea sufferers and their doctors to monitor their blood saturation during sleep. We especially recommend the handhelds that alarm at a certain low blood oxygen concentration.

Nebulizer and Their Uses

Wed, 20 Mar 2013 01:30:02 -0400

nebulizer and Their UsesWhat is nebulizer?For individuals coping with asthma, cystic fibrosis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and other respiratory diseases a nebulizer will be prescribed as part of the treatment plan to control and ease respiratory distress. A nebulizer is a device used to convert liquid medication into a cloud-like mist that is delivered to the lungs via a face mask or mouthpiece. Compressor and ultrasonic nebulizers are two main types of nebulizers used to administer aerosol medication to the individual’s respiratory system. What is different between the ultrasonic nebulizer and the compressor nebulizerResearch studies have shown the ultrasonic nebulizer to be a quicker, more efficient and more patient friendly method of treatment. Total time for nebulization by an ultrasonic is 9 minutes in comparison with 21 minutes for a compressor. One research study sought to compare the quantity of medication left after treatment from a compressor and an ultrasonic nebulizer. The study demonstrated that the total availability of the medication in the lungs was greater after treatment with the ultrasonic nebulizer. How does an ultrasonic nebulizer workUltrasonic nebulizers work by producing high-frequency vibrations making waves in the liquid medication and creating a small fountain. This type of nebulizer is capable of producing a finer mist because of the vibrations enabling the medication to fully spread throughout the lungs. The small floating particles are administered to the lungs as a consistent, uniform, and fine mist. Solution medications such as Albuterol and ipratropium may be used in the ultrasonic nebulizer. However, suspension drugs such as budesonide may not be used due to the interaction between the suspension and the ultrasonic nebulizer. A suspension medication is a mixture composed of many large particles within a liquid, whereas a solution is a mixture composed entirely of liquid and/or dissolved solids. If a suspension drug were to be placed in an ultrasonic nebulizer the machine would not work properly, due to the limited break down of large solid particles within the suspension. For best results only solution medications may be used with ultrasonic nebulizer. How does an compressor nebulizer workThe compressor nebulizer works by producing a pressurized jet stream that propels medicated droplets out of the nebulizer through the tube and into the facemask. With the compressor nebulizer both solutions such as Albuterol and suspensions such as budesonide can be used. The medication is drawn up through the tube and aerolized and the remaining larger particles from the suspension are trapped by the jet mask and left behind to be broken down into smaller droplets to be reused. The compressor nebulizer is therefore, capable of breaking down the large particles within suspensions. Choosing the proper nebulizer requires information from your physician; consult with your physician and/or pharmacist to find out your type of medication and which nebulizer is best suited for your prescribed inhalation treatment.

With just a single button press, we can get the real-time fetal heart rate displayed on a very clear LCD screen and we can listen to our baby's heart beat clearly through the headphones. I'm so excited to be able to hear for the first time the heart beats using this wonderful device. My husband and I are quite pleased with the quality and its performance.

Inhaler, Spacer and Nebulizer

Sat, 16 Mar 2013 01:30:02 -0400

inhaler, Spacer and nebulizerWhat is Spacers?Spacers are also called as aerosol-holding chambers, add-on devices. Spacers are designed as plastic or metal containers or long tubes that slow the delivery of medication (usually the inhaled corticosteroids as a medical treatment for asthma) from pressurized MDIs (Metered Dose inhaler). Spacers can make medication more easily and more effectively reach the lungs. The inhaled asthma medications can go directly to the lower airways where the human body needs therapy. Spacers also prevent certain amount of medication from being deposited in patient’s mouth and throat; therefore increase the efficiency of medicine and in the mean time decrease the agony and irritation during the therapy. What is inhaler?Several different kinds of asthma medicines are taken using an inhaler. inhalers usually fall into two types: aerosol inhalers and dry-powder inhalers. The former is also called pressurized metered dose inhaler, or even commonly called as puffers. The respiratory patient can absorb certain pre-measured amount of asthma medication when the inhaler is squeezed at a time. The latter one, as its name suggests, delivers the medicine in dry power form into the patient’s lungs. Some inhaler devices come with built-in counters that monitor the number of doses a person has taken and how many doses the device has left. This will help a more accurate and more effective treatment for asthma.How the inhaler and spacer work together?As for the therapy for very young children, it is recommended that a metered dose inhaler with a spacer is used to receive medications. For babies, a face mask will be used to inhale the medication deposited in the spacer whereas older children can use a mouthpiece. With the elaborate combination of the two gadgets, they can reach fast and amazingly ideal therapeutic effects.How does the nebulizer work?A nebulizer is a kind of device that turns liquid medicines into a fine mist (aerosol) that can be easily inhaled, so nebulizers are sometimes simply called breathing machines (nebulizer treatments). nebulizer medications: The traditional pneumatic nebulizer is gradually taken place by advanced ultrasonic nebulizer. pneumatic nebulizer is more bulky and noisy than an ultrasonic one. Nebulizers are effective devices for delivering asthma medicine right to the lungs where it is needed the most. Young children can breathe in medicine through a face mask or mouthpiece. The devices are convenient for the uses by children.Disclaimer:The information on this website aims to provide customers with relevant knowledge regarding our products.

How to get Pregnant Faster - Top Ten Tips

Thu, 14 Mar 2013 01:30:02 -0400

How to get pregnant Faster - Top Ten TipsTip # 0. Get an ovulation chart.For your convenience, please feel free to download an ovuluation chart to keep track of your periods.Tip # 1. To get pregnant faster have sex three times a week.Having regular sex is the best way to get pregnant. Couples often try to time everything perfectly for ovulation but do not have sex when they think they are not ovulating. It is true that sex that is not within the time of ovulation will not result in pregnancy. However, because women do not always ovulate when they think they will, having sex three times a week will help a woman to cover her bases, so to speak, and not miss an opportunity to get pregnant.Tip # 2. To get pregnant faster use an ovulation prediction kit or fertility monitor.Using an ovulation kit to predict when you are ovulating will improve your chances of getting pregnant. For many women charting or other methods of ovulation prediction are too confusing. ovulation prediction kits work by reading LH surges prior to ovulation. They are relatively easy to use and are generally accurate for predicting ovulation. Fertility monitors, such as the Clear Blue Easy monitor, are also a worthwhile investment if you would like to get pregnant faster. Fertility monitors are similar to ovulation prediction kits in that they read changes in LH but they also read changes in other hormones and don’t require any guesswork for couples. They are easy to use and will tell you when the best time to get pregnant is.Tip # 3. To get pregnant faster have sex before ovulation (not after).Sometimes couples get confused about the best time to have sex in relationship to ovulation. You have a small window of time each month to get pregnant. After a woman ovulates the egg will survive approximately 24 hours. sperm, on the other hand, will live for up to three to five days. This is why having sex two to three days before ovulation will increase your chances of getting pregnant. Don’t wait until the day you ovulate to have sex. Your partner’s sperm will last longer than your egg and you don’t want to miss an opportunity by waiting.Tip # 4. Don’t rely on the Calendar method for predicting ovulation.A lot of couples have heard to have sex around day fourteen of your cycle. This is based on the calendar method and assumes that you have a regular 28-day cycle and ovulate mid-cycle. Although this is better than just picking an arbitrary day to have sex, it is not a very accurate way to predict when you ovulate. Many women do not ovulate on day fourteen and knowing precisely when you ovulate will help you time intercourse better. ovulation prediction kits, looking at previous months bbt charts by your infrared thermometer, or watching for signs of ovulation will help you to determine when you ovulate.Tip # 5. If you want to get pregnant faster, don't rely on fertility charting alone to predict ovulation.Fertility Charting is great for tracking your cycle but it does have disadvantages. By the time you can see ovulation on a bbt chart, you have already ovulated. It is good to chart so you can track your cycles, see if you ovulate the same time each month, and also so you can look back on your cycle and see if you timed things right. But if this is your first cycle trying to get pregnant or if you are not ovulating at the same time each month, an ovulation prediction kit would be more helpful.Tip # 6. Before you start trying to get pregnant see your doctor.Make sure you are in good health and have had a regular check up from your obgyn or medical provider. Untreated infections, sexually transmitted diseases, or poor health can affect your chances of getting pregnant. Its good to see a doctor as well as start taking prenatal vitamins prior to trying to conceive.Tip # 7. When trying to get pregnant, don’t smoke, drink alcohol, or abuse drugs.This may seem like common sense but many women do try to get pregnant while smoking, drinking or using drugs. Smoking, drugs, and alcohol can affect your fertility. It will also affect your unborn child. It is important to stop smoking or using drugs and alcohol before getting pregnant and not wait until you find out you are pregnant.Tip # 8. To get pregnant faster have enjoyable sex.Sometimes when couples are trying to conceive, sex becomes a job or function of reproduction and is not as enjoyable. Plan a romantic evening or try something different to spice things up. How you are feeling sexually may factor into your chances of getting pregnant. Some researchers believe that having an orgasm during sex increases your chances of getting pregnant. For women, the spasmic movements of orgasm will help pull the sperm into the uterus and for men a better orgasm may increase the man’s sperm count.Tip # 9. Have sex in positions that keep sperm inside the vagina longer.The missionary position is a good position to use when trying to get pregnant. Avoid positions where the woman is on top. Gravity will allow sperm to leak out with these positions. Also try placing a pillow under your hips to help tilt your pelvis and keep the sperm in longer. Don’t get up right after sex. Try to relax and allow the sperm to stay in the vagina as long as possible.Tip # 10. There is no such thing as trying too hard to get pregnant.Most couples get pregnant within a year of trying. If you have not gotten pregnant within a year consult your doctor for advice.

Fetal Heart Rate QA

Tue, 12 Mar 2013 01:30:03 -0400

fetal heart Rate QAHow do I distinguish my baby’s heartbeat from mine? The easiest and most effective way to distinguish your heartbeat from your baby’s is to count your baby’s heart rate by using fetal doppler. The baby’s heart rate is normally within a range of 120 to 180 BPM. On the other hand, expectant mother’s heart rate is much lower, which is 60 to 100 BPM. Please note that your baby’s BPM, like adults, varies at different activity levels. In what way can I get baby’s fetal heart rate by using fetal doppler?For fetal dopplers without a display, such as sonotrax Lite model, you can listen to fetal heart beats and count the beats for 10 seconds or 15 seconds. And then calculate BPM (beats per minute) by multiplying the beats by 6 or 4 (10 seconds multiplied by 6 equals 60 seconds, or 15 seconds multiplied by 4 equals 60 seconds – one minute).For fetal dopplers with a display, such as sonotrax basic model, you can read the BPM directly on the screen.What is the normal fetal heart rate of my unborn baby? Normally, the fetal heart rate is between 120 to 180 beats per minute (BPM). BPM can vary as the fetal movement may influence BPM during the day. Also BPM changes at different pregnancy periods. While the fetal heart rate changes due to various conditions, but it is normal as far as the beats are within the range. With the progress of your pregnancy and the growth of your baby, the heart rate will be more static. If you have something uncertain, please talk to your healthcare professionals.Why do we need to monitor fetal heart rate? fetal heart monitoring is the way that the doctor or yourself may use to monitor the condition of the fetus by listening to the fetal heart rate and keep track of the FHR (fetal heart rate of the baby – fetus) during the pregnancy. By using fetal doppler with 3mhz probe, you can listen to the fetal heart beat as early as 8-week pregnancy. This can help you to make sure that the developing fetus is in healthy condition and make you relieved from stress. Furthermore, fetal heart rate monitoring can prevent miscarriage and decrease the miscarriage percentage in pregnancies from 15 percent to the 1 percent under monitoring of fetal heart beat.Does stress do harm to my fetus and affect FHR ? The answer is YES. If you worry about your fetus’ health and keep anxious all the way during your pregnancy, FHR will be affected and the risk of low-birth weight infant as well as premature birth will increase consequently. Last but not the least, pregnancy stress can eventually induce the baby’s withdrawal behavior and affect normal functioning in life as he grows up.If you are able to listen to your fetus’ heart rate with a fetal doppler, it would be a safe method for you to relieve yourself from stress and anxiety caused from unknowns during pregnancy.Can I get to know the gender of my fetus by listening to fetal heart rate? Some people get the idea that a boy’s fetal heart beat is slower than a girl’s, which arises from an old wives’ tale. The reason is that the boy is bigger so his heart rate is slower, which is not the truth. With the growth of your baby and the progress of your gestation, the FHB becomes slower and static, but within the range from 120 to 180 beats. If you want to know the exact sex of your baby, the accurate method is ---- birth. Disclaimer:The information on this website aims to provide customers with relevant knowledge regarding our products.

What is fertile Cervical Mucus(CM)? When can I expect it? What are differences between fertile CM and non-fertile CM?

Sat, 23 Feb 2013 01:30:03 -0500

Fertile Cervical Mucus (CM) is an important indication of upcoming ovulation. Gradual increase fertile CM can be sesen in the week before ovulation and CM will return to non-fertile quality in the days after ovulation. Fertile CM is produced as a result of the increase of estrogen hormones. Due to the fact that many people compare CM with egg white, CM sometimes is also called "egg white cervical mucus", acronymed as EWCM. Its medical term, "spinnbarkeit" is originated from German word, meaning strtchable and thin. Fertile CM and non-fertile CM are different in textures, colors and PH levels. The texture of non-fertile CM is thick and sticky, while fertile CM is clear, colorless, semi-transparent, fluid, mobile and thin. PH level of fertile CM is less acidic. This quality provides protection for sperm, helping sperm survive longer and swim easier. Continue Reading→
