Abstract book 6th RMS 16.indd

45% of the patients have bad postural
control, the discomfort and bad posture
lead to many serious problems such as
pressure ulcers, ,musculoskeletal disorder,
(scoliosis, decrease range of motion
,…) which lead to decrease the level of
function performance .The main reason
of discomfort and bad postural control is
due to the measurement of the wheelchair
which used has not too match varieties and
the specific measurement cannot offers
due to the lack of manufactories which
use for individualize seating measurement

Objectives: To compare between Creatine
kinase-MB and cardiac troponin I in
the early diagnosis of Acute myocardial
infarction.
Methods: Prospective observational study.
convenience samples of (86) patients were
selected during the period of study (March
- 2012) in CCU department in QAHI,
complaint of chest pain were clinically
examined and evaluated by measuring
CK-MB in blood serum and cTnI. Serum
CK-MB levels were quantitated by the
fully auto-mated random access chemistry
analyzer (Hitachi 902); on the other hand
cTnI was detected in blood samples by the
rapid assay (Single step membrane based
qualitative immunochromatography).
Results: In this study, 71% of patients
of AMI had elevated levels of CK-MB
while only32% showed positive cTnI.
Also, CK-MB was found to be elevated
in 28% of patients within 6 hours and in
37% within 12 hours, whereas, cTnI was
positive in only 15% and 21% within 6
hours and 12 hours respectively.
Conclusion: According to this study,
CK-MB appears to be more sensitive
marker and better indicator for diagnosis
of AMI as compared to cTnI especially
within the early hours of AMI.

Objectives: The aims of this study is
to determine the most economic use
and accuracy between (Hot wire and
Differential pressure) flow sensors of the
ICU Ventilators.
Methods: This study was performed on
ICU ventilators at King Hussein Hospital
in ICU Department, two types of flow
sensors were used, Differential pressure
from A Company 6 equipments and Hot
wire from B Company 6 equipments. All
maintenance records since 1/2009-5/2012
in biomedical workshop were reviewed;
we calculate the flow sensors average
life time. We measured the tidal volume
output and other parameters of ventilation
weekly for each (3 months 2/2012-5/2012)
at the same setting parameters and at the
same circumstances by using flow analyzer
from TSI certifier company.
Results: After measurement it found
the following results: Flow Sensors type,
Average Tidal volume(at 500ml),Average
output pressure(at 20 mbar),accuracy%
Hot wire 491ml 19.6 mbar 98% Differential
pressure 476ml 19.1mbar 95%If we divide
the price on the average life time of each
flow sensor Flow sensor type, Average Life
Time (Hours), Price of each flow sensor,
