1High frequency ventilation — is a type of mechanical ventilation that employs very high respiratory rates (>60 breaths per minute) and very small tidal volumes (usually below anatomical dead space).cite journal |author=Krishnan JA, Brower RG |title=High frequency ventilation …
2High altitude pulmonary edema — (HAPE) is a life threatening form of non cardiogenic pulmonary edema that occurs in otherwise healthy mountaineers at altitudes above 2,500 meters (8,200 feet). Some cases however have been reported also at lower altitudes (between 1500 and 2500… …
3High fidelity — or hi fi reproduction is a term used by home stereo listeners and home audio enthusiasts (audiophiles) to refer to high quality reproduction of sound or images that are very faithful to the original master recording. High fidelity equipment has… …
4High pressure nervous syndrome — (HPNS) is a neurological and physiological diving disorder that results when a diver spends too much time breathing a high pressure mixture of helium and oxygen (heliox).cite book |title=Bennett and Elliott s physiology and medicine of diving,… …
5High altitude — Altitude sickness occurs at high altitude. So what is high altitude? Altitude is defined on the following scale: {{}}High altitude: 8,000 12,000 feet (2,438 3,658 meters); Very high altitude: 12,000 18,000 feet (3,658 5,487 meters); and Extremely …
6susceptibility — 1. Likelihood of an individual to develop ill effects from an external agent, such as Mycobacterium tuberculosis, high altitude, or ambient temperature. 2. In magnetic resonance imaging, the loss of magnetization signal caused by rapid p …
7Magnetic susceptibility — In electromagnetism, the magnetic susceptibility χm (latin: susceptibilis “receptiveness”) is a dimensionless proportionality constant that indicates the degree of magnetization of a material in response to an applied magnetic field. A related… …
8Differential susceptibility hypothesis — According to the differential susceptibility hypothesis by Belsky[1] individuals vary in the degree they are affected by experiences or qualities of the environment they are exposed to. Some individuals are more susceptible to such influences… …
9Ultra high molecular weight polyethylene — (UHMWPE), also known as high modulus polyethylene (HMPE) or high performance polyethylene (HPPE), is a subset of the thermoplastic polyethylene. It has extremely long chains, with molecular weight numbering in the millions, usually between 2 and… …
10Ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene — (UHMWPE or sometimes shortened to UHMW), also known as high modulus polyethylene (HMPE) or high performance polyethylene (HPPE), is a subset of the thermoplastic polyethylene. It has extremely long chains, with molecular weight numbering in the… …
