Abstract: A method and apparatus for improving the diagnostic performance of a probe system (30) for detecting a medical condition in a patient by sensing volume changes in a monitored body part due to pulsatile arterial blood flow in the body part, characterized in calibrating the probe system (30) for the respective measurement site according to a predetermined characteristic of the monitored body part of the patient and quantifying the arterial pulsatile volume thereat. Such calibration is described with respect to probes including: (1) a pressure sensor (63), which senses pressure changes in a compressible fluid system to which the patient's body part (e.g., finger, toe or a distal portion of a limb) is subjected, which pressure changes are convertible to volume changes in the body part due to pulsatile arterial blood volume changes therein; and (2) an optical sensor (140), which senses optical density or transmissivity changes in the body part, which changes are also convertible to volume changes due to pulsatile arterial blood volume changes in the body part.

Abstract: Un système de gestion de documents permet à de multiples utilisateurs de contribuer en collaboration au contenu dun document par tout média approprié pour transporter et stocker des documents, y compris des courriels, des lecteurs partagés, des espaces de travail reproduits et des systèmes de stockage centralisés. Une stratégie de suivi est utilisée, au lieu dun dépôt central, laquelle est basée sur un versionnage indépendant du média. Chaque version dun document qui est créée et sauvegardée par un utilisateur se voit attribuer un identifiant unique. Les versions sont soumises à un service global de ratification comme la prochaine version documentée dun document. Une version soumise qui forme la prochaine étape dans la séquence linéaire est ratifiée comme la version documentée du document, alors que la version qui ne répond pas à ce critère devient identifiée comme étant un nouveau document. Un soutien est offert aux utilisateurs qui créent des versions hors ligne, ainsi quaux utilisateurs qui ne sont pas des abonnés au système.

Abstract: Methods and devices are provided for actuating and/or articulating a surgical stapler. In one embodiment, a surgical stapler is provided having a stapling mechanism or end effector that is movably coupled to a distal end of an elongate shaft. An electrically expandable and contractible actuator, such as an electroactive polymer actuator, can be used to pivotally or angularly adjust a position of the stapling mechanism relative to the elongate shaft by delivering energy to the electroactive polymer actuator. In another embodiment, an electroactive polymer actuator can be used to actuate the staple applying assembly, thereby driving one or more staples, and preferably at least two linear rows of staples, into tissue. The actuator can alternatively or additionally drive a blade distally to cut tissue being stapled.
