MATERIALS, METHODS. Location and ethics This study was conducted at the Juliana Children’s Hospital (Haga teaching hospital, the Hague, the Netherlands) and the Centre for Human Drug Research (Leiden, the Nether- lands) from November 2018 unul March 2020. The study protocol was approved by the Medical Ethics Commiчee ZuidWest Holland (the Hague, the Netherlands) prior to iniu- auon of the study. The study was conducted in compliance with the Dutch Act on Medical Research Involving Human Subjects (wMO) and Good Clinical Pracuce. Wriчen informed consent was obtained from all parents and from children aged 12 years and older. Assent was obtained from children aged younger than 12. The trial was registered at the Dutch Trial Registry (NTR,Trial NL7612, registered 18-Mar-2019). Subjects and study design Between 10-15 healthy children of each age year between 2 and 16 years old were recruited from the region around the Hague using various recruitment methods (local newspaper adverusement, distribuung flyers in the Juliana Children’s Hospital and on a local primary school). Exclusion criteria were the presence of (chronic) disease, inability to communicate in Dutch or English and an inability to use the devices. All children were visited at home by a trained invesugator for a 30-minute training session and a baseline quesuonnaire. Children used the devices and completed a daily acuvity quesuonnaire for the subsequent 21 days, aher which an end-of-study quesuonnaire was completed, and the devices were retrieved by the invesugators. Children received a gih ceruficate worth €20 for their parucipauon. Devices Subjects wore a Steel hR smartwatch (Withings, Issy-les-Molineux, France) during the study period. The watch measures physical acuvity with a built-in accelerometer. hR was measured every 10 minutes via a photo plethysmography (PPc) sensor on the back of the watch. Furthermore, the watch calculates several sleep-related parameters using the accelerometer and an incorporated temperature sensor. All subjects performed twice weekly temperature measurements with the Withings Thermo device. Subjects ≥ 6 years old performed daily blood pressure (bP) measurements with the Withings bPM, a weekly weight measurement with the Withings Body+scales and twice-weekly home-based spi- rometry using the Air Next spirometry device (NuvoAir, Stockholm, Sweden). The Air Next device employs a turbine mechanism with disposable mouthpieces and has been validated for use in children11. All devices used Blu...

MATERIALS, METHODS. Ethics and study design This study was approved by the Medical Ethics Commiчee Zuidwest Holland (The Hague, The Netherlands) and conducted by Juliana Children’s Hospital and the Centre for Human Drug Research. 15 subjects with sCd were recruited in the outpauent clinic between November-2018 and February-2020. Aher obtaining informed consent, study paruc- ipants completed a baseline quesuonnaire9, wore Steel hR smartwatch (Withings, Issy- les-Molineux, France) and completed a daily pain score and weekly pain quesuonnaire10 for 28 days. Data from healthy subjects were collected in a separate study11. Endpoints and statistics Step count per day, steps taken during the most acuve hour, mean dayume hR (6aM- 10PM), mean nocturnal hR (12aM-saM) and total sleep durauon were considered as candidate endpoints and assessed regarding the aforemenuoned criteria8. First, the dif- ferences between scd pauents and healthy controls were esumated for all candidate end- points via mixed effect models with subject as random intercept and condiuon as fixed factor. Addiuonal adjustments were performed for age, sex, rain durauon- and watch wear ume per day where appropriate11. Daily pain scores were correlated with Pa and hR. Clinical events were described descripuvely. Tolerability was assessed by calculaung the median compliance of the included subjects. Results Baseline characteristics and compliance Baseline characterisucs of scd pauents (n=15) and healthy subjects (n=128) are displayed in Table 1. Median compliance for sickle cell pauents was 96% and 100% for Pa and hR, 70% for sleep durauon and щ6% for quesuonnaire assessments. Difference between patients and controls scd pauents were less physically acuve and had higher nocturnal- and dayume hR (Fig- ure 1A-B/D-E). A separate analysis per hour confirmed the observed differences (Figure 1C/1F) and revealed the observed differences in Pa were mainly explained by less acuv- ity during aher-school-hours. On average, children with scd slept 0.5h (95% confidence interval (ci) 0.1-0.8h, p = 0.008) shorter compared to healthy controls. Adjusted and unadjusted differences are displayed in Table 2. Correlation with daily pain scores Pa-related endpoints were not correlated with daily pain scores (Figure 1G-H). How- ever, dayume- and nocturnal hR were related to daily pain scores (‘Worst pain while mov- ing’, Figure 1I-J). For dayume hR, the esumated effect was an increase of 0.9 bPM for each point increase in pain score (95% ci 0.2...

  • Construction Methods No four course of brick-work, with three joints, shall exceed in height, when built, one inch more than the same bricks piles upon one another without mortar. The bricks are to be well soaked in water before use on works, in proper through so as to be thoroughly wet when layed. The Cessation of the bubbles through the water is an irldication of saturation being complete. For ensuring thorough soaking of the bricks every one or two bricklayers or more as necessary, shall be provided with tubs for use The wall of structures shall be carried up regularly in all cases 1` when the nature of the work will admit of it not leaving any part 915mm (3 feet) lower than another. Horizontal courses shalI be straight, level and even and faces of walls smooth and plumb. A straight edge and a plumb- xxx shall be used for constant checking during progress of the work. No brick-bats shall be permitted to be used except when necessary for obtaining the dimension of the different course or for obtaining the specified bond. All unfinished work must be raked back in course unless otherwise directed arid when new work is to be jointed to it the surface of unfinished work must be cleaned and wetted. The bricks shall be laid by placing sufficient mortar on the wall and forcing every brick into it in such a manner as to completely fill every joint with moratar whether at the bottom, side or end of the brick. The mortar to be used shall be that specified for the relevant schedule items and shall comply with the specification for the mortar specified. The bound used shall be English and shall be carried throughout the work. At all angles forming the junction of any two walls, the bricks shall, at each alternate course be carried into each of the respective walls, so as to thoroughly unite the work. V'Jhen the faces are to be plastered, the joints shall be well raked out before any plaster is laid on should the plaster from want of proper joint ranking detach and 7 fall off from the brick work, the contractor shall strip off the plaster bodily to the extent ordered by Superintending Engineer and shall re-do the work properly at his own expense. All requisite scaffolding shall be provided at the contractor's expense and shall be double i.e., must it have two sets of upright supports Care must be taken to ensure the safety of the work people and the contractor must comply with such instructions as the Superintending Engineer may issue to ensure such safety. The contractor will be entirely responsible for any damage or injuries to person or property resulting from ill-erected scaffolding, defective ladders, or otherwise arising out of his default in this respect.
