CHI Air Customer Reviews
Still the best - 4/6/2015 2:03:03 AM I have purchased several flat irons irons the last few years. The chi is still the best. Easy to use on my frizzy hair and helps hair look shiny and freshNot the best - 1/5/2015 3:57:58 PM Overall the curling iron is good because you can adjust the temp and the size is perfect but the tension of the handle does not hold my hair tight enough so it slips outThe perfect daily use brush! Love it - 9/8/2014 10:09:02 AM I like quality hair products and this brush is fabulous. I had surgery recently and I tend to drop things due to weakness in my hands. This has a nice handle, grip and the brush is just the right size. Not too big, not too small. Great tangle-free bristles protected with red caps that have not fallen off like some of the cheaper brushes out there. This is perfect for after showering, detangling and works great with thick, even curly hair. I strongly endorse this Chi Brush!Great purchase! - 5/27/2013 4:36:04 AM My new mini flat iron is great for traveling and I have short hair so it's perfect for me. I have to say I got a great deal because it was on sale on the "deal of the day" so I had to get it! Great purchase and would recommend for all you that have thin short hair:)no good - 11/28/2012 4:32:36 AM This brush makes my hair look awful. More frizzy and no body. I hope that I can return it.Time Saver - 11/16/2012 11:08:28 AM This is great for holding hair very taut, but not painfully so. It makes it so easy to get your hair super sleek!Great straightening brush - 9/18/2012 9:18:43 AM I purchased this brush with the hope I could cut down on the use of a hot flattening iron to straighten and smooth my hair. I am happy to say this brush works well for me. I use it in conjunction with a smoothening serum and blow dryer. The result has been shiny smooth hair with less damaging heat used overall.So glad I tried The CHI Brush! - 4/29/2012 8:00:09 AM I'm for anything that makes hair shiny and does it ever! And an added bonus of the CHI Brush is that it blends your natural hair with human hair extensions beautifully!!Better than my flat iron! - 8/16/2011 4:09:00 PM This is easy! Cuts out drying and then flat-ironing; it is all done in one step! Light weight, and none of those accidental burns from the flat iron. Love it and recommend it for anyone.I am an absolute believer!! - 7/20/2011 6:51:26 PM Most of the hair straighteners I have used don't have a lasting effect, but this one sure did! It is just as good, even better, than straighteners twice the price! If you have curly, thick, or untamed hair this one is for you! Happy Straightening! -

At a Glance
Why Get Tested?
To monitor the level of an aminoglycoside antibiotic such as gentamicin, tobramycin, or amikacin in the blood to ensure adequate dosing and help avoid toxic side effects
When to Get Tested?
At regular intervals during treatment with an aminoglycoside
Sample Required?
A blood sample drawn from a vein in your arm
Test Preparation Needed?
None, but timing of the sample for testing is important; follow your doctor's directions.
The Test Sample
What is being tested?
Aminoglycosides are a group of antimicrobials (antibiotics) that are used to treat serious bacterial infections. These tests measure the level of the prescribed aminoglycoside in the blood in order to adjust doses as necessary and ensure effective treatment while avoiding toxic side effects.
Gentamicin, tobramycin, and amikacin are the most commonly prescribed aminoglycosides, and they are used to treat infections cause by certain types of bacteria called Gram-negative bacteria as well as a few Gram-positive bacteria. (For more on these, see the article on the Gram stain).
It is important to monitor the concentration of aminoglycosides because their effectiveness depends on an adequate level in the blood. Furthermore, aminoglycosides are associated with serious toxic side effects, including damage to hearing and/or balance (ototoxicity) and acute kidney damage (nephrotoxicity). The kidney damage is usually reversible, but the hearing and/or balance loss is frequently permanent. These complications can occur at any time, but the risk is greater with elevated blood levels, indicating that the drug is not being cleared from the blood at a typical rate, and when it is given for an extended period of time.
Aminoglycosides are not well absorbed by the digestive system so they must typically be administered either through a needle into a vein (intravenously, IV) or by injection into a muscle (intramuscularly, IM). They are given using dosing intervals (such as every 8-12 hours) or given as a larger single dose once every 24 to 48 hours (also called extended-interval or pulse dosing). The amount of an aminoglycoside given per dose depends on a variety of factors, including kidney function, other drugs the person may be taking, age, and weight.
For interval dosing, drug monitoring typically involves assessing the maximum concentration soon after a dose is given (called a peak level) and the minimum concentration just before the next dose is given (called a trough level). Depending on the results, the dose of drug may be adjusted up or down. For example, a person with decreased kidney function may not be able to clear the drug out of his system efficiently, resulting in increased concentration in the blood, so the dose may be adjusted lower or the drug may be given less frequently. On the other hand, if a person is given too little drug to maintain a sufficient minimum level in the blood, then it is unlikely that treatment will be effective.
For extended-interval dosing, testing may be performed on a timed sample taken 8-12 hours after dosing.
Aminoglycosides are sometimes used alone but are often combined with other antibiotics. Monitoring the antibiotic blood level is important in the presence of other medications as they can affect the ability of the body to process (metabolize) and clear the drug.
How is the sample collected for testing?
A blood sample is obtained by inserting a needle into a vein in the arm.
NOTE: If undergoing medical tests makes you or someone you care for anxious, embarrassed, or even difficult to manage, you might consider reading one or more of the following articles: Coping with Test Pain, Discomfort, and Anxiety, Tips on Blood Testing, Tips to Help Children through Their Medical Tests, and Tips to Help the Elderly through Their Medical Tests.
Another article, Follow That Sample, provides a glimpse at the collection and processing of a blood sample and throat culture.
Is any test preparation needed to ensure the quality of the sample?
No test preparation is needed, but the timing of the sample for testing is important. For interval dosing, trough levels are collected just prior to a person's next aminoglycoside dose. Peak levels are collected about 30 minutes after the completion of an intravenous dose or 60 minutes after an intramuscular dose. For extended-interval dosing, the recommended collection time may vary (8-12 hours after dose), but the time of the completion of the last dose and the time of the blood sample collection will be recorded and compared. Follow the doctor's directions for collection. It may be helpful to tell the laboratorian when the administration of the last dose was completed.

Due to a dramatic increase in the number of questions submitted to the volunteer laboratory scientists who respond to our users, we have had to limit the number of questions that can be submitted each day. Unfortunately, we have reached that limit today and are unable to accept your inquiry now. We understand that your questions are vital to your health and peace of mind, and recommend instead that you speak with your doctor or another healthcare professional. We apologize for this inconvenience.
This was not an easy step for us to take, as the volunteers on the response team are dedicated to the work they do and are often inspired by the help they can provide. We are actively seeking to expand our capability so that we can again accept and answer all user questions. We will accept and respond to the same limited number of questions tomorrow, but expect to resume the service, 24/7, as soon as possible.

Why is it that the idea that untestable and unsubstantiated nonsense is a legitimate alternative to empirical evidence is absurd in every matter save religion? Why should any reasonable person show any 'respect' to a religious 'theory' that flies in the face of observable fact? 'Religious tolerance' carried to the extreme of according iron-age superstition equal weight to carefully observed, measured and tested science makes idiots of us all.
Better question... why do we value piety from our leaders more than intelligence? When did gullibility and stubborn inability to accept evidence become an electable character trait?
