Patent EP-1017317-A1 (EP)
Inventor: SWENDSON DAVID L
IPC: A61M5/31
Filed: 1998-09-24
Abstract: A one-handed blood sampling reservoir for an infusion line having a configuration which allows discard fluid to be drawn into the reservoir and then returned to the patient in two squeezing motions. Both drawing and returning steps are performed by squeezing two of a plurality of finger grips provided on the reservoir. The reservoir may include a bracket which enables one-handed operation in either a hand-held or a pole-mounted configurations. In the alternative, the reservoir and finger grips may be formed by telescoped inner and outer housings without a bracket. The reservoir desirably includes a syringe-like body forming a chamber and a plunger/piston assembly reciprocal therein to vary the volume of the chamber. A narrow gap is provided in the chamber open to both inlet and outlet ports when the piston is fully seated to ensure a consistent and minimum flush volume in the chamber. The piston may be spring-loaded against the syringe body to simplify manufacturing by reducing the number of close toleranced parts required. The reservoir is preferably placed within an infusion line having a pressure transducer therein, and the spring loaded piston may be adjustable to vary the dynamic response of the fluid pressure system.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un appareil perfectionnés de surveillance photopléthysmographique de paramètres d'analytes sanguins, notamment d'oxyhémoglobine, de déoxyhémoglobine (hémoglobine réduite), de carboxyhémoglobine, et, dans un appareil à quatre émetteurs, de méthémoglobine, utilisant, pour éclairer par transparence les tissus d'un patient (22), une pluralité de faisceaux lumineux de différents contenus spectraux. L'appareil et le procédé nécessitent l'application d'un ensemble émetteur comprenant quatre émetteurs (24 - 27). Ces émetteurs peuvent être des diodes électroluminescentes ou des diodes laser. Dans le système à trois analytes, la longueur d'onde centrale des émetteurs doit se situer dans trois bandes spécifiques. Dans le système à quatre émetteurs (capable de mesurer la méthémoglobine), la longueur d'onde centrale des émetteurs de l'ensemble émetteur doit se situer dans quatre bandes prédéterminées, et les émetteurs ayant les deux longueurs d'onde centrales les plus faibles doivent être séparés d'au moins 5 nm. L'appareil peut utiliser des émetteurs disposés soit dans une sonde, soit, de préférence, dans le dispositif de surveillance, ainsi qu'une photodiode disposée soit dans la sonde soit dans le dispositif de surveillance.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un système à file d'attente (230) qui enregistre un ensemble (246) dérivé d'une cellule MTA, l'ensemble comprenant une en-tête interface interne (IIH) et soit une charge utile de cellule MTA, soit un paquet AAL2. Le système à file d'attente comprend une file d'attente (312, 320) destinée au stockage de l'ensemble, ainsi qu'un processeur qui exécute plusieurs fonctions. Une fonction Marquage de la date et de l'heure appose la date et l'heure dès le stockage de l'ensemble dans la file d'attente. La fonction marquage date/heure peut apposer la date et l'heure sur un ensemble en remplacement de l'en-tête interface interne. Une fonction Vérification de la date et de l'heure utilise cette mention date/heure pour déterminer si le temps de présence de l'ensemble dans la file est supérieur à la durée admise. La fonction Vérification date/heure peut effectuer cette détermination et simultanément une lecture potentielle de l'ensemble dans la file d'attente. Alternativement, la fonction Vérification date/heure peut effectuer la détermination en question lorsqu'elle est demandée par une fonction Surveillance de file d'attente qui surveille le taux d'occupation de la file d'attente (p.ex.. lorsqu'un taux d'occupation d'une file d'attente excède un certain seuil). Une fonction Suppression permet de supprimer l'ensemble si son temps de présence dans la file d'attente excède la durée admise.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for early arbitration in a full duplex bus system. Early arbitration in a distributed arbitration serial bus system permits the resolution of requests for a next fairness interval during a current fairness interval such that the grant of the highest priority request in the next fairness interval may immediately follow a last packet of a last subaction in a current fairness interval. In this way, the bandwidth previously wasted propagating an arbitration reset token and waiting for arbitration requests can be substantially eliminated.
