2. Water Quality Sensors—From Transducer Technology to Environmental Application

Abstract

This article describes the full chain of technical activities from transducer design, method of readout implementation, data transfer, and all the way to environment monitoring pilot study. A silicon-based electrical conductivity (EC) sensor with a radio solution was utilized to study the water quality of the Yser river, Belgium. A voltage-controlled excitation reading out method suitable for four-electrode EC transducers is described and implemented. The measuring electronics were adequately encapsulated and equipped with a proprietary base station for wireless data transfer. Both the transducer and the constructed sensor probe were evaluated in a laboratory to prove the required performance prior to deployment. The small long range wide area networking (LoRaWAN) network of devices was installed for a nearly one-year period at the river bank. A high ratio of successful radio transmission was achieved from the remote site. Sensor probe data from one location show representative high correlation with the reference measurements. The described solutions, and their deployment, provided a prospect for achieving precise, online, surface water quality monitoring systems. The data from the pilot study are expected to bring insight into the dynamics of the water system and influence of the tides and lock management on its water quality.

Abstract

Background Invasive pulmonary aspergillosis typically occurs in an immunocompromised host. For almost a century, influenza has been known to set up for bacterial superinfections, but recently patients with severe influenza were also reported to develop invasive pulmonary aspergillosis. We aimed to measure the incidence of invasive pulmonary aspergillosis over several seasons in patients with influenza pneumonia in the intensive care unit (ICU) and to assess whether influenza was an independent risk factor for invasive pulmonary aspergillosis. Methods We did a retrospective multicentre cohort study. Data were collected from adult patients with severe influenza admitted to seven ICUs across Belgium and The Netherlands during seven influenza seasons. Patients were older than 18 years, were admitted to the ICU for more than 24 h with acute respiratory failure, had pulmonary infiltrates on imaging, and a confirmed influenza infection based on a positive airway PCR test (influenza cohort). We used logistic regression analyses to determine if influenza was independently associated with invasive pulmonary aspergillosis in non-immunocompromised (ie, no European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer/Invasive Fungal Infections Cooperative Group and the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases Mycoses Study Group [EORTC/MSG] host factor) influenza-positive patients (influenza case group) compared with nonimmunocompromised patients with severe community-acquired pneumonia who had a negative airway influenza PCR test (control group). Findings Data were collected from patients admitted to the ICU between Jan 1, 2009, and June 30, 2016. Invasive pulmonary aspergillosis was diagnosed in 83 (19%) of 432 patients admitted with influenza (influenza cohort), a median of 3 days after admission to the ICU. The incidence was similar for influenza A and B. For patients with influenza who were immunocompromised, incidence of invasive pulmonary aspergillosis was as hi
