High impact information on Air Movements

• The amount of alpha-farnesene adsorbed by the fiber increased with air movement through the system [1].
• CONCLUSIONS: We demonstrated the occurrence of a broad range of benzene exposure levels in two shoe manufacturing factories in Tianjin, China. Benzene and toluene exposures were determined in part by the degree of contact with glues, the benzene and toluene content of each glue, air movement and ventilation patterns [2].
• Clinical improvement and no clinical improvement were defined as improvement and lack of improvement, respectively, in air movement, wheezing, retractions, oxygen saturation, work of breathing, and respiratory rate after administration of nebulized albuterol [3].
• The movement of chlorpyrifos and diazinon from cracks and crevices in empty dormitory rooms with and without forced air movement to houseflies and plates in non-target areas was studied [4].
• METHODS: Twelve volunteers had temperature measured under a hydrogel dressing with different combinations of air movement and bandaging [5].

Biological context of Air Movements

• Weighted kappas were excellent for RR and F/R (Kw greater than .6); moderate for LOC, stridor, and O2 sat (0.4 less than Kw less than .06); and poor for air movement (Kw less than .4) [6].

Associations of Air Movements with chemical compounds

• Percentage agreement ranged from 82% (for air movement) to 96% (for O2 sat) [6].
• Methods of generating smoke or bubbles other than using smoke tubes suitable for visualizing air movements include heated element smoke generators, combustion generators, generation of metallic chlorides and ammonium chloride, generation of neutral density bubbles, and water fog generation [7].
• The evaluation method included using sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) tracer gas to determine the ventilation system's flow rate and capture efficiency, a respirable aerosol monitor (RAM) to identify aerosol leak locations around the enclosure, and smoke tubes and a velometer to evaluate air movement around the outside of the enclosure [8].
