Dental injury after conventional direct laryngoscopy: a prospective observational study.

abstract：:We have designed an automatic detector system for noninvasive monitoring of irrigating fluid absorption during transurethral resection of the prostate. Ethanol, which is used as a tracer for the fluid, is measured in the expired breath of the patient. The breath ethanol monitor can be used both in the awake patient an...
