Patent EP-1302166-A1 (EP)
Inventor: OSYPKA MARKUS J
IPC: A61B5/029
Filed: 2002-10-11
Abstract: Doppler Velocimetry is a widely used method for estimating stroke volume (SV).
The accuracy and reliability of its measurement however, is dependant on
   a) the correct assessment of the aortic valve cross-sectional area (CSA),
and   b) the maximal systolic velocity integral (SVI).    
     The invention avoids the conventional assessment of aortic valve CSA by using a
calibration method: a reference stroke volume SV REF  is determined by a method
different from Doppler velocimetry, e. g. by thoracic electrical bioimpedance
(TEB), or thoracic electrical bioadmittance, measured via surface thorax electrodes
(transthoracic approach) or via electrodes located directly on an esophageal
catheter / probe (esophageal approach). In the latter case, if esophageal Doppler
velocimetry is used, the same catheter can be used for the placement of the
electrodes and for an ultrasound transducer to be place approximately in the center
the electrodes. 
     In the case of esophageal Doppler velocimetry, an additional benefit of the invention
is that the Doppler catheter / probe does not need to be aimed precisely at the
site of maximum flow amplitude, as long as a stable catheter / probe location is
maintained within the esophagus.

Abstract: L'invention porte sur un analyseur (100) d'oxygène à vent magnétique créant un champ magnétique local produit par des pôles (102A, 102B), à plusieurs éléments thermiques (W1, R12, R11; W2, R21, R22) placés dans un pont à l'intérieur du champ magnétique local pour mesurer la concentration en oxygène d'un mélange gazeux environnant, produisant un vent magnétique et déterminant les effets thermiques induits par le vent dans les éléments de détection. A cet effet, deux éléments de détection disposés dans le gaz ambiant sont placés l'un en amont et l'autre en aval de chacun des générateurs de vent, tous deux étant sensiblement en équilibre thermique avec le gaz environnant et donc non affectés par les variations de capacité thermique des composants gazeux de fond. En présence d'oxygène, les deux éléments de détection sont de manière passive respectivement refroidis au-dessous, ou réchauffés au-dessus, de la température due au chauffage local. En absence d'oxygène, les détecteurs sont à la même température et se mettent d'eux même à zéro, le point zéro ne variant pas en présence de gaz de différentes caractéristiques thermiques. Ce montage est en outre insensible aux glissements thermiques et aux variations de la position physique des éléments de détection, qui, sinon, provoqueraient des asymétries de pont, des décalages et des effets de dérive.

Abstract: A package of a continuous strip of material formed from a web comprises a plurality of parallel side by side strip elements separated by dividing lines. The dividing lines are formed such that the width of the strip elements varies along their length with the wider portions of one alongside the narrower portions of the next in a nesting action. The strips are packaged for storage and transport to an end use machine where the strip elements are withdrawn and cut into identical strip portions at spaced positions along the strip so that each strip portion includes a portion of minimum width and a portion of maximum width. The web including all the strip elements is formed into a block in which the web is fan folded back and forth such that each folded portion of the web is folded relative to the next portion about a line transverse to the strip. Each strip element is continuous through the block and is connected by a splice to the beginning of the next strip element. The strip has a varying width, for example, to form diaper inserts when the strip is cut into the individual strip portions. The dividing lines are formed by longitudinal slits separated by un-slit bridges so that the strip elements are held together in the block and are pulled apart only when unfolded.

Abstract: A system, method, and computer program product for allocating resources to a communication channel between a transmitter and a receiver are disclosed. The receiver implements a procedure that instructs the transmitter to utilize the maximum available bandwidth, consistent with maintaining satisfactory communication channel performance. When the performance of the communication channel degrades, the receiver measures the strength of a communication signal received from the transmitter. If the communication signal strength satisfies a threshold, then the bandwidth dedicated to the communication channel may be decreased, and at least one of the number of bits per symbol and coding rate may be increased. By contrast, if the communication signal strength fails to satisfy a threshold, then the transmitter may increase the transmission power and/or reduce the user rate of the communication link.
