    patient with esophagogastric balloon tamponade tubes is formulated around the primary nursing diagnosis of ineffective airway clearance related to aspiration of blood (Ackley‚ B.‚ Ladwig‚ G.‚ 2011) Bleeding often stop spontaneously‚ but if it does not‚ a Sengstaken-Blakemore or Minnesota tube is inserted to provide constant pressure at the source of bleeding of the varices by using a balloon tamponade. For continued bleeding‚ a nasogastric tube may be inserted and connected to continuous low

    tubing and bend the glass tube into a U-shape. The glass tube is then filled with a liquid‚ typically mercury‚ so that all trapped air is removed from the sealed end of the tube. The glass tube is then positioned with the curved region at the bottom. The mercury settles to the bottom After the mercury settles to the bottom of the manometer‚ a vacuum is produced in the sealed tube. The open tube is connected to the system whose pressure is being measured. In the sealed tube‚ there is no gas to exert

    FM 2 FLOW ALONG A VENTURI TUBE Summary The objectives of the experiment is to study the validity of the Bernoulli equation and to determine the coefficient of discharge‚ Cd‚ by calibrating the venturi tube as a flow meter. To investigate the validity of the Bernoulli equation‚ the static pressure is taken at each tapping and the total head is determined for the maximum difference setting. The velocity head is calculated using the Bernoulli equation. To calculate Cd‚ the volumetric flow rate

    BOURDON TUBE PRESSURE GAUGE Bourdon Tubes are known for its very high range of differential pressure measurement in the range of almost 100‚000 psi (700 MPa). It is an elastic type pressure transducer. The device was invented by Eugene Bourdon in the year 1849. The basic idea behind the device is that‚ cross-sectional tubing when deformed in any way will tend to regain its circular form under the action of pressure. The bourdon pressure gauges used today have a slight elliptical cross-section and

    Microscale Crystallization – Craig Tube For this experiment‚ we had to find the percent recovery and melting point of pure sulfanilamide from impure sulfanilamide using the crystallization technique. To start‚ .1004 grams of impure sulfanilamide was put into a Craig tube with enough ethyl alcohol to barely pass the top of the sulfanilamide. The Craig tube was put into a stone block until boil‚ then check to see if the solid material had dissolve. With the addition of two more drops from a supply

    Fire tube boiler designing Fire tube boilers operate by sending combustion/flue gas by using a combination of straight tubes flanked by trouble held in identical vessel. Often identified by the variety of passes used (say for example a 3-pass or 4-pass fire tube boiler)‚ this refers to the variety of times combustion gas flows the capacity of the pressure vessel mainly because it transfers heat on the water. A wet-back fire tube boiler utilizes a water cooled publish zone (end closure). A dry-back

    endotracheal tube you will prefer RAE‚ flexomettalic or mcintosh? What are the problems associated with these tubes? Ans- Ideal ET Tube is south facing RAE (Ring Adair Elwin) tube fixed in center over the lower lip. RAE Endotracheal Tubes are designed to conveniently position the anesthesia circuit out of the surgical field. Problem- Difficult to pass Suction catheter. Fixed curvature hence more chances of endobronchial intubation or inadvertent extubation. Flexometallic tubes- Inner diameter of tube decreases
