“…Cryolipolysis induces an inflammation and fat cell fibrosis, which causes the death of adipocytes (apoptosis) [17]. Macrophages subsequently engulf and digest the dyed adipocytes and, thereby, gradually decreases the fat layer thickness [18,19]. However, the systemic effect of Cryolipolysis alone was not approved [14,15].…”

Background and Objectives To investigate the adding effect of Cryolipolysis to a low‐calorie diet program on lipid profile, liver enzymes, body mass index, waist‐to‐hip ratio, and volume reduction of subcutaneous fat tissue in central obese women. Study Design/Materials and Methods Sixty central obese women were randomly divided into two equal groups. Women in the control group received prescribed low‐calorie diet regimen only, while women in the study group received three Cryolipolysis sessions plus the same dietary regimen for 3 months. Assessment of women in each group for weight, height to obtain the body mass index, waist‐to‐hip ratio, and abdominal subcutaneous fat thickness as well as evaluation of lipid profile and liver enzymes was done just before starting the treatment procedures and immediately after ending the study duration. Results There were statistically significant improvements of waist‐to‐hip ratio, body mass index, total cholesterol, triglycerides, low‐ and high‐density lipoprotein, as well as liver enzymes in favor of the study group (P < 0.001). Conclusion Women who underwent Cryolipolysis and diet program had better improvement in components of lipid profile and liver enzymes than women who were maintained over diet program alone. Measures to decrease waist circumference, associated with abdominal subcutaneous fat reduction, enhanced the systemic effects of Cryolipolysis. Lasers Surg. Med. © 2020 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Introduction:The use of thermography in the medical field has been experiencing a renaissance due to advances in the infrared thermographic imaging technology, which improves thermographic equipment and promises cost saving and increased safety.Dermatology is one of the most promising fields of application among the medical areas with potential for the use of thermography.Objective: To review the findings on this subject and to describe the use of such technique for dermatology and aesthetic applications.Methods: A bibliographic survey was carried out, selecting relevant publications and guidelines, focused on monitoring medical diagnostic applications and benefits of thermography for dermatology, inflammatory skin diseases, and aesthetic applications.Results: Inflammatory skin diseases lead to changes of the IRT image. A quantification of treatment effects and monitoring changes on skin can be possible by repeated measurements over time. Conclusion:Infrared imaging is a noninvasive, powerful tool in the diagnosis and clinical management of skin conditions and monitoring of aesthetic procedures.

“…The assessment of the surface temperature in the infrared spectrum and the subsequent conversion to a digital signal allows the visualization of a thermal image by the human eye [19]. IRT has been successfully applied for monitoring a wide range of activities from industry and technology to health science [20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29]. The visualization of these events is usually performed by thermographs, particularly by thermographic cameras, which are special instruments capable of detecting the heat distribution of the surface [27].…”

Providing reliable systems to assess ventilation outcomes in simulation-based scenarios is paramount to improve the performance during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) in real situations. The aim of this study is to investigate the reliability of infrared thermography (IRT) in monitoring the quality of resuscitative breaths in undergraduate nursing students during a simulated CPR-based clinical practice. We recruited a convenience sample of 21 volunteer students in the second year of the Bachelor of Nursing. Participants were instructed to perform CPR following the European Resuscitation Council guidelines in training manikins from Laerdal Medical® during two consecutive minutes. Demographic and knowledge data about CPR performance were collected with a questionnaire whilst ventilation quality parameters (volume, rate, time spent) were provided by the manikin software. Thermographic images from the manikin´s peripheral mouth region were recorded at the end of each CPR ventilation cycle. The temperature profile was examined at baseline and after 1 and 2 minutes of ventilation performance. A temperture increment of 1.357 ºC was observed when comparing the maximum temperature at minute 1 with regard to baseline, whilst a significative decrease was obtained between minute 1 and minute 2 (0.457ºC) of the study. The comparison between the number of ventilations and the temperature variation after 1 minute of CPR training produced good correlation values (rho = 0.658, p=0.0019). A positive association was also observed between IRT and t ventilation volume values (r = 0.503, p=0.02). Our results indicate that infrared thermography is a promising tool for assessing ventilation performance in CPR practice, thus enabling its potential use as predictor of the quality of resuscitative breaths in simulation-based scenarios.

Abstract: The observed data indicate that there was a significant decrease in the temperature during the cooling phase, whereas in the recovery phase, the inverse was found.
