Changing points of view in 'Prone' - The Boston Globe The experience brings to mind the philosophical underpinnings of the novels of French postmodernist Alain Robbe-Grillet, whose repetitions and splintered ``objective" descriptions show that it's the viewer who imposes meaning on scenes and events; the pieces and players don't hold significance in themselves. In one crystalline example of Jasperse's theme, all three dancers lie prone on the ground with their arms bent at the elbows, their hands now slapping down, now bobbing or half-waving in the air. ``Prone" may be about ideas, but in the end it's the humanism at its core -- our vulnerability as participants, how the performers' bodies shape those concepts in blood, sweat, and tears -- that lingers when the lights come up. www.boston.com /ae/theater_arts/articles/2006/07/14/changing_points_of_view_in_prone   (0 words)

Iterative design and evaluation of new prone carts for individuals with SCDs: A technical note Prone carts are used for mobility by individuals with spinal cord dysfunctions (SCDs) who cannot use a wheelchair because of the risk of aggravating existing pressure ulcers. While prone carts contribute significantly to the quality of life for persons with SCD, there is currently a limited number of patients with SCD who have sacral or ischial pressure ulcers and cannot use a manual cart because of limited arm and/or hand function, fatigue, or other medical conditions. The new prone carts must be available in a manual and in a powered version: a manual cart for paraplegics or other individuals capable of self-propelling and a powered version for tetraplegics and other individuals who cannot self-propel. www.rehab.research.va.gov /jour/02/39/1/malassingne.html   (5187 words)

Prone Horseshoe Headrest While prone, the head is rested on a horseshoe headrest to facilitate surgical access to the neck or cranium. With multiple assistants, the anesthesia circuit is briefly disconnected by the CRNA as he or she simultaneously commands the head, with one hand securing the airway (or ETT), and attends to the position of all lines. While other OR team members assist in the prone positioning of the patient, the CRNA continues to maintain the airway, reconnects the circuit, ensures proper functioning of the ventilator (or ability to hand ventilate patient in the case of a LMA), and checks and secures lines. www.pitt.edu /~position/Prone/prone8_1.htm   (529 words)

Questions and Answers for Professionals on Infant Sleeping Position and SIDS If it is decided to allow a baby to sleep prone, special care should be taken to avoid overheating or use of soft bedding since these factors are particularly hazardous for prone-sleeping infants. If the parent finds that the infant has great difficulty going to sleep in the supine position, consider placing the infant prone and moving the infant to a back position when he or she is sleeping. Although the infant's risk of SIDS could be increased slightly if he or she spontaneously assumes the prone position, the risk is not sufficient to outweigh the great disruption to the parents, and possibly to the infant, by frequent checking. www.nichd.nih.gov /sids/sids_qa.cfm   (1712 words)

Prone position and prematurity; aspiration If it is decided to allow a baby to sleep prone, special care should be taken to avoid overheating or use of soft bedding since these factors are particularly hazardous for prone-sleeping infants. In fact, in the majority of the very small number of reported cases of death due to aspiration, the infant's position at death, when known, was prone. The 2 prevailing hypotheses to explain the risk of prone sleeping are related to impaired respiratory control and overheating. sids-network.org /experts/pronepos.htm   (1176 words)

Medical College of Wisconsin - Partial breast irradiation in prone position The images were sorted into 10 phase bins, and were used to assess the motion of the surgical clips inside the lumpectomy cavity as well as the motion of the chest wall throughout the breathing cycle. Conclusions: For breast treatment in prone position, the interfractional setup variation is less than 1.0 cm and the intrafractional motion is negligible. A margin of 1.0 cm between CTV and PTV, as established in supine position, is adequate for partial breast irradiation in prone position. www.mcw.edu /display/router.asp?docid=11987   (485 words)

Questions and Answers for Professionals on Infant Sleeping Position and SIDS Periodic surveys have confirmed that the prevalence of prone sleeping among infants in the United States has decreased from approximately 75% in 1992 to less than 25% in 1995. There is some evidence that the reason for this difference is that babies placed on their sides have a higher likelihood of spontaneously turning to prone.

ScienceDaily: Extinction-Prone Sunfish And Suckers Identified In addition, Pyron notes that because the extinction prone species tend to have very specialized habitats, if they were introduced in other areas in an effort to save them, they would likely not make it. In a recent interview, the Penn State researcher said that the species he identified as extinction prone were probably already known to be rare because they have a small geographic range size. The extinction prone suckers, on the other hand, are primarily found in the Western United States. www.sciencedaily.com /releases/2000/04/000417100159.htm   (1050 words)
