Patent EP-1987791-A2 (EP)
Inventor: BUTLER JOHN
IPC: A61B17/02
Filed: 2003-10-06
Abstract: A wound protector and retractor device 1 comprises a sleeve 2, a distal member provided by a distal ring 3 of resilient material and a proximal member provided by a proximal ring 4. The sleeve 2 is led around the ring 3 and is free to move axially relative to the distal ring 3 somewhat in the manner of a pulley. The proximal ring 4 is fixed to the sleeve 2, in this case at the proximal inner end thereof. The sleeve 2 terminates in a handle or gripping portion which is reinforced by a gripping ring 15. The sleeve extends from the proximal ring 4 and the distal ring 3 is contained between inner and outer layers 2a, 2b of the sleeve 2. The resilient distal ring 3 is scrunched up and inserted through the incision 6. The sleeve 2 is then pulled upwardly. On pulling of the sleeve 2 upwardly the outer layer 2b is pulled up while the inner layer 2a is drawn around the proximal ring 3. This results in shortening the axial extent between the proximal ring 4 and the distal ring 3, tensioning the sleeve and applying a retraction force to the margins of the incision 6. As the incision is being retracted the margins are also protected by the sleeve. On retraction, an access port is provided, for example for a surgeon to insert his hand and/or an instrument to perform a procedure. The device may be used as a retractor in open surgery or as a base for a valve/seal to allow it to be used in hand assisted laparoscopic surgery or for instrument access or hand access generally.

Abstract: A fluid transportation device (20) includes a valve seat (21), a valve cap (22), a valve membrane (23), multiple buffer chambers (223, 215), a vibration film (241) and an actuator (242). The valve membrane (23) is arranged between the valve seat (21) and the valve cap (22), and includes several hollow-types valve switches (231, 232), which includes at least a first valve switch (231) and a second valve switch (232). The multiple buffer chambers (223, 215) include a first buffer chamber (223) between the valve membrane (23) and the valve cap (22) and a second buffer chamber (215) between the valve membrane (23) and the valve seat (21). The vibration film (241) is separated from the valve cap (22) when the fluid transportation device (20) is in a non-actuation status, thereby defining a pressure cavity (226). The actuator (242) is connected to the vibration film (241). When the actuator (242) is driven to be subject to deformation, the vibration film (241) connected to the actuator (242) is transmitted to render a volume change of the pressure cavity (226) and result in a pressure difference for moving the fluid.

Abstract: An object of the invention is to increase driving force of driving wheels at starting a vehicle, when the vehicle runs on a µ-sprit road. At first, a road surface for a driving wheel is detected, which has a higher coefficient of friction than that of a road surface for the other driving wheel. An operation for controlling grounded load of the driving wheels is carried out during a period, in which differential rotations of the driving wheels are limited. The grounded load of the driving wheel which is traveling on a high-µ road is increased, whereas the grounded load of the other driving wheel which is traveling on a low-µ road is decreased.

Abstract: Power consumption in a storage system (100) is reduced by selectively controlling power supplied to the storage devices (106), while also incorporating a de-duplication function to reduce the amount of required storage capacity. First storage devices (250-1) are initially in a powered on condition and second storage devices (250-2) are in a powered off condition. Write data received by the controller is initially stored to a first volume (220) allocated from the first storage devices. While the second storage devices are powered on, content of the write data stored in the first volume (220) is compared with content of any existing data stored in a second volume (230) allocated on the second storage devices. When results of the comparison show that the content of the write data does not match the content of the existing data, the write data is stored to the second volume.

Lesdits réseaux cérébraux sont impliqués dans la régulation de la respiration et dans les capacités cognitives liées au trouble de la mémoire (comme on l'observe dans une variété de démences), dans des déséquilibres de l'activité neuronale entre différentes régions cérébrales (comme cela est suggéré dans des troubles tels que la maladie de Parkinson, la schizophrénie, la dépression respiratoire, les apnées du sommeil, les troubles déficitaires de l'attention avec hyperactivité, et les troubles affectifs ou les troubles de l'humeur), ainsi que dans des troubles dans lesquels une déficience des facteurs neurotrophiques est impliquée. On les observe également dans des troubles de la respiration, dus par exemple à une overdose d'un alcool, d'un opiacé, d'un opioïde, d'un barbiturique, d'un anesthésique ou d'une toxine nerveuse, ou lorsque la dépression respiratoire résulte d'un état médical tel que l'apnée du sommeil centrale, l'apnée du sommeil centrale induite par un accident cérébro-vasculaire, l'apnée du sommeil obstructive, le syndrome de l'hypoventilation congénitale, le syndrome de l'hypoventilation liée à l'obésité, le syndrome de mort subite du nourrisson, le syndrome de Rett, les lésions de la moelle épinière, les lésions cérébrales traumatiques, la respiration de Cheney-Stokes, le syndrome d'Ondine, le syndrome de Prader-Willi, et la submersion.
