Application of point-of-care ultrasound-guided tip navigation combined with visualised directional high-frequency linear array probe compression to improve the success rate of umbi... by Fa Chen, Xianping Liu, Yunfeng Lin, Yanfang Fan, Shaoru Huang, Wen Ling, Jiajia Lin, Xia Ouyang

“…Introduction Conventional umbilical venous catheterisation (UVC) relies on ‘blind’ insertion without ultrasound guidance, resulting in low success and high complication rates. While point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS)-based tip navigation and location has improved this scenario by enabling real-time visualisation of the catheter tip during UVC, challenges remain when the catheter is inadvertently inserted into an incorrect vessel. …”

Object spatial certainty as a measure of spatial variability and its influence on attention by Karolina J. Krzyś, Carmel Avitzur, Carrick C. Williams, Monica S. Castelhano

“…In two experiments, we examined how these variations affected search by manipulating whether the targets were either High Certainty or Low Certainty. Our findings demonstrate that the variability of spatial association of objects significantly affected how effectively scene context influences search performance.…”
