    Electric wheelchair is a chair fitted with wheels. The device comes in variations allowing either manual propulsion by the seated occupant turning the rear wheels by hand, or electric propulsion by motors. There are often handles behind the seat to allow for different individuals to push. Electric Wheelchairs are used by people for whom walking is difficult or impossible due to illness, injury, or disability. Disabled People who have difficulty sitting and walking often make use of a wheelbench. A basic manual wheelchair incorporates a seat, foot rests and four wheels: two, caster wheels at the front and two large wheels at the back. The two larger wheels in the back usually have handrims; two metal or plastic circles. Electric wheelchairs are propelled by a motor and battery. They are very sophisticated. They are operated with a joy stick or push buttons. Some electric wheelchairs use advanced technology and can climb up stairs, move across gravel and even raise up to give access to high shelves. Electric wheelchairs need strong frames to support the motor and battery so they are very heavy and also quite expensive. People with spinal cord injuries face similar decisions. Often a person with a spinal cord injury will use a motorized wheelchair, even though they are physically capable of using a manual chair. They don't do this because they are lazy. They do this to be more efficient with their energy reserves. People with spinal cord injuries often choose motorized wheelchairs to preserve their physical energy, so that they can complete the work. Sometimes need to save on physical energy so that have some allowance left over for intellectual or emotional pursuits.

Demand for Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy Surges as Patients Suffering from COVID-19 Experience Multiple Organ Failure - 0 views

  •  
    Chronic renal failure, or renal overload, is associated with a variety of morbidity and mortality and is a major challenge in the clinical treatment of patients with chronic renal failure. This disease has no cure and can be managed with specific medications in an appropriate course of therapy. However, in patients for whom other therapies have been ineffective or who are experiencing life-threatening side effects, continuous renal substitute therapy (CRS) is the only feasible treatment. Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy (CRRT) is a type of blood purification therapy used in the treatment of patients with acute kidney injury. The therapy is commonly used to provide renal support for critically ill patients with acute kidney injury, particularly patients who are hemodynamically unstable. Emergence of COVID-19 has led to increasing adoption of CRRT as patients with Covid-19 are experiencing multiple organ failure, including acute kidney injury. Moreover, regulatory bodies are also focused on approval and launch of new CRRT devices. For instance, in April 2020, The U.S. Food and Drug Administration granted marketing authorization for a new device indicated to provide continuous hemodialysis or hemofiltration therapy to critically ill pediatric patients weighing between 2.5 and 10 kilograms (or 5.5 to 22 pounds).
