Examples of EMP(D) in a sentence

  • Biosense warrants to EPMD the reasonable, commercial performance of the Software Script in accordance with the specifications set forth in Appendix A for twelve months from the first commercial sale of the EMPD Module by EPMD or a distributor or sub-distributor to an End User with the exclusive remedy for any breach of the warranty being repair or replacement of the Software Script at Biosense’s discretion.

  • In addition to these case reports, there is emerging literature that has demonstrated negative outcomes being associated with SBFT even when using EMPD with inexperienced clinicians.26-28 The sole use of EMPD does not guarantee a successful and safe SBFT placement.

  • When compared with less-experienced clinicians, the experienced clinician’s ability to interpret the combination of images from the EMPD and the clinical observations most likely lead to a higher rate of agreement.

  • Therefore, the use of EMPD could accurately confirm the placement of SBFT at bedside.

  • Clinicians were competent in reading the images of the EMPD to determine where the tip of the feeding tube was located within the gastrointestinal tract.

  • These findings suggest that EMPD images provide substantial agreement with X-ray confirmation and almost perfect agreement when the tip of the tube is within the small bowel.

  • After a change in policy in September 2016, only 40% of SBFT placed with EMPD obtained radiologic confirmation within the following year.

  • Future studies may be needed to assess the validity of other clinical techniques used during tube placement to determine tip-of-tube placement outside of the images provided by the EMPD.

  • Furthermore, the number of tube placements by clinicians did not impact the rate of agreement; however, trained clinicians with frequent practice in using an EMPD for the bedside placement of feeding tubes likely led to the high rate of agreement found within this study.

  • The policy included a statement that required radiograph con- firmation be obtained in the following situations: EMPD malfunction during placement, removal and replacement of additional nasogastric tubes during placement, and the tube tip location was not unequivocal.
