What's the difference between pigtail and pigtailed?
Pigtail
Definition:
(n.) The tail of a pig.
(n.) A cue, or queue.
(n.) A kind of twisted chewing tobacco.
Example Sentences:
(1) Perforations of the left atrial or ventricular wall and extravasations of contrast medium during transseptal left heart catheterisation or angiocardiography can be eliminated by replacing the normally used transseptal catheters by Pigtail-catheters.
(2) The configuration of pigtail DSA catheters should reduce or prevent damage to vessel wall due to extravasation.
(3) In our Department we use a simple respiratory equipment consisting of a modified mask elbow and a pigtail bag.
(4) Searching for the evolutionary origins of these polymorphisms, we have sequenced five DRB clones isolated from a cDNA library of a pigtail macaque (Macaca nemestrina) B lymphocyte line.
(5) We have treated ten patients by means of internal drainage by using double pigtail catheters.
(6) Myocardial blood flow was measured by radioactive microspheres (15 micron diam) injected via a pigtail catheter into the left ventricle during light sedation (closed-chest flow measurements); following thoracotomy, a second set of microspheres was injected via a catheter into the left atrium (open-chest flow measurements, n = 5).
(7) Seven long stenoses were treated by continuous stenting, with a double pigtail stent.
(8) We report the successful insertion of polyurethane double-pigtail stents (made for transpapillary endoscopic insertion) by the percutaneous transhepatic route in five patients.
(9) We conclude that in the majority of patients with double pigtail ureteral stents vesicoureteral reflux occurs at a low grade during vesical filling and at a high grade during voiding.
(10) In 21 patients with a long-standing internal ureteral double-pigtail catheter we demonstrated the adverse effect of a full bladder on upper system drainage.
(11) We prospectively studied 60 ischemic patients with 5F catheters (Pigtail and Amplatz) using the percutaneous right brachial artery approach (group I), in order to compare this technique with two groups of 100 patients each randomly studied by the femoral route with either 5F (group II) or 8F (group III) catheters (Pigtail and Judkins).
(12) After confirmation by needle aspiration, one of two methods of percutaneous catheter introduction were used: (1) a modified Seldinger technique for placement of an 8 French pigtail catheter and (2) a trocar catheter technique for placement of a 12 or 16 French catheter.
(13) The signs and symptoms produced by 4 different types of 7F double pigtail catheters, including Cook polyurethane pigtail stent, Surgitek Silitek Uropass, Cook C-Flex and Van-Tec Soft stent, were analyzed prospectively.
(14) Bile-duct diameter had no influence on flow rate in pigtail stents.
(15) A pliable, easy to place, double pigtail, internal ureteral stent made of elastomeric polyurethane is described.
(16) Contrast material injections into the aorta were made through a 4-F multiple side-hole pigtail catheter inserted percutaneously from the brachial artery.
(17) In 16 of 191 patients the initial attempt to place a double-pigtail internal ureteric stent by conventional methods was unsuccessful.
(18) A high flow right angled 5 gauge polyethylene pigtail catheter was used in 24 patients for aorto-femoral angiography via the transbrachial approach.
(19) Percutaneous pigtail drainage of pleura fluid or air is simple, safe, effective, and substantially less traumatic than standard chest-tube placement.
(20) In nine cases we performed endoscopic retrograde pancreatic drainage (ERPD) by inserting 7-Fr pigtail catheters via the papilla into the cyst or into the main pancreatic duct.
Pigtailed
