Abstract: An evacuation or rescue device (100) for a bed-ridden or non-ambulatory person (103) adapted to quickly secure the person (103) to a movable underlying mattress (109) or the like comprises two sheets (101, 101') deployable one from the head-end and one from the foot-end. When deployed the head-end sheet (101') meets the foot-end sheet (101) over the person's chest or head. The two sheets (101, 101') which are interconnected underneath the mattress (109) are then tightened downwardly over the long sides of the mattress (109) by means of looped ropes (105) pulled one from the head-end side and the other from the foot-end side. The ropes (105) are self cleating when tightened and quickly secure the person (103) in readiness for rescue and evacuation by a single individual if necessary.

Abstract: A system of conveyors and handlers for manufacturing copper clad laminates is disclosed. The system has a layup station including at least two clean rooms in which B-stage and copper foil sheets are respectively placed. A sandwich comprising a copper foil sheet placed into contact with a press plate is conveyed from the first to the second clean room where a B-stage sheet is positioned against the copper foil. The resulting uncured laminate is then transferred with its press plate to a stacking station until a predetermined number of laminates, separated by press plates, is stacked into a "book". One or more books are then conveyed through press loading equipment where heat and pressure are applied to cure the laminates. The books are then transferred to a breakdown station where the cured laminates and press plates are successively and sequentially stripped from the book. The press plates are conveyed back to the layup station for recycling into "new" books with each press plate cleaned immediately prior to reentering the first clean room. To minimize the migration of B-stage dust or fibers from the second to the first clean room, the ambient atmospheric air pressure within the first clean room is maintained at a greater pressure than the air pressure within the second clean room.

Abstract: This invention is a method of imaging arteries distinctly from veins using nuclear magnetic resonance imaging in combination with intravenous administration of a magnetic resonance contrast agent. The contrast agent is intravenously injected in such a way that the arterial contrast concentration is substantially higher than the venous and background tissue concentration for a sufficiently long period of time to acquire the magnetic resonance image. The injection site of the contrast agent is chosen such that it is in a vein which is remote from the artery of interest. The magnetic resonance contrast agent may be intravenously infused at a variable infusion rate. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An air manager system is disclosed which maintains a more stable water vapor and carbon dioxide equilibrium across the air cathode of a metal-air cell while still providing new oxygen needed for operation of the cell at desired power levels. Oxygen is preferentially drawn in through one or more ventilation openings in a housing, so that the concentrations of water vapor and carbon dioxide in the battery housing remain more stable, resulting in less transfer across the cathode. A fan circulates the gases within the battery housing, keeping the oxygen needed for operation of the cell in contact with the air cathode even though the oxygen concentration within the housing is reduced compared to the ambient air outside the housing. Therefore, the cell is less susceptible to drying out or flooding, and less carbon dioxide intrudes into the cell.

Abstract: A pressure waveform monitor for non-invasively monitoring the pressure waveform inside a vessel, such as an artery, includes a flexible diaphragm extended across an opening of a container containing a fluid. The flexible diaphragm is placed against tissue surrounding an artery such that arterial pressure causes a deflection in the diaphragm. A deflection in the diaphragm causes the fluid to be redistributed throughout the container which is effectively divided into an array of volume compartments. The relative volume distribution is determined through impedance plethysmography. The diaphragm is maintained in a calibrated position by maintaining the array of volume compartments at relatively unchanged volumes. When the relative volumes remain essentially unchanged, calibrated tonometry is possible. The pressure within the container is then used to determine the pulse waveform and the pressure within the artery.

Abstract: A method for reducing interferent bias such as hemoglobin bias in immunoassays using dried slide test elements featuring peroxidase and leuco dye as the labeling mechanism.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to an in vitro method of determining the in vivo EPO activity of a sample containing EPO. More particularly, the present method comprises treating a sample containing EPO under conditions which remove desialylated EPO, and measuring the in vitro EPO activity of the resulting treated sample. In a preferred embodiment, desialylated EPO is removed from the sample by incubating the sample with cells of the human hepatoma cell line HepG2, and in vitro EPO activity is determined by incubating the treated sample with cells of an EPO-responsive cell line and measuring the proliferation or viability of the EPO-responsive cells. The present invention is useful, for example, in quantitating the biologically active EPO in a variety of sample types.
