Tube feeding formula made from blenderized foods.

Household bleach (5.25% or 6.00%-6.15% sodium hypochlorite depending on manufacturer) usually diluted in water at 1:10 or 1:100. Approximate dilutions are 1.5 cups of bleach in a gallon of water for a 1:10 dilution (~6,000 ppm) and 0.25 cup of bleach in a gallon of water for a 1:100 dilution (~600 ppm). Sodium hypochlorite products that make pesticidal claims, such as sanitization or disinfection, must be registered by EPA and be labeled with an EPA Registration Number. Open bottle of concentrated bleach good for 30 days. Diluted use-dilutions should be made fresh daily (24hrs). Active molecules bind to cellulose (such as rags or wipes made with cotton or paper components), significantly reducing efficacy.

Relating to or having two poles or charges (bipolar encephalograph leads); relating to a device capable of using two polarizations, such as a transistor that uses positive and negative charge carriers; having an efferent and an afferent process; having two poles or opposite extremities: a bipolar neuron.

BiPAP stands for bilevel positive airway pressure. The BiPAP machines allows the air that is delivered through the mask to be set at one pressure for inhaling and another for exhaling. This makes BiPAP much easier for users to adapt to and also allows neuromuscular disease sufferers to use the device. These dual settings also allow people who use the device to get more air in and out of the lungs.

Creation of a defect in a septum.

Initial objective quantitative data collected and used for comparisons.

Bronchiole Alveolar Lavage

A term to describe manual ventilation of a patient using an Ambu bag (a.k.a. bag valved mask: BVM).

Agent that prevents growth and reproduction of bacteria.

The property of a growth and reproduction inhibitor. A compound which inhibits the growth of microorganisms, but does not kill them. Once the organism is no longer in contact with the bacteriostat, it is potentially capable of resuming growth and reproduction and initiating infection.
