Abstract: This invention is a system for inducing cardio-plegia arrest and performing an endovascular procedure within the heart or blood vessels of a patient. An endo-aortic partitioning catheter (10) has an inflatable balloon (11) which occludes the ascending aorta (12) when inflated. Cardio-plegia fluid may be infused through a lumen of the endo-aortic partitioning catheter (39) to stop the heart while the patient's circulatory system is supported on cardiopulmonary bypass. One or more endovascular devices (500) are introduced through an internal lumen (40) of the endo-aortic partitioning catheter (30) to perform a diagnostic or therapeutic endovascular procedure within the heart or blood vessels of the patient. Surgical procedures such as coronary artery bypass surgery or heart valve replacement may be performed in conjunction with the endovascular procedure while the heart is stopped. Embodiments of the system are described for performing, e.g., fiberoptic angioscopy of structures within the heart and its blood vessels, and valvuloplasty for correction of valvular stenosis.

Abstract: Une matrice de contiguïté est incorporée dans un réseau local afin d'assurer des transitions plus régulières et plus rapides entre des dispositifs mobiles et les points d'accès de microcellules contiguës ou se recouvrant. Ladite matrice de contiguïté, qui peut se baser sur une logique floue, est mise à jour périodiquement. Des facteurs servant à créer la matrice peuvent également établir des liaisons, effectuer des mesures d'intensité de signaux, déterminer les temps de déplacement, l'heure, le jour et d'autres facteurs relatifs à la topologie du réseau local et à ses schémas d'utilisation. Le dispositif mobile effectue ainsi la transition en tentant de communiquer sur les fréquences associées à des schémas de bonds relatifs aux points d'accès ayant les plus grandes chances d'être contigus au point d'accès précédent. Il en résulte que le temps de transition moyen est largement réduit.

Abstract: A fluid tight flare nut union is described. Flare nut unions are convenient to install in systems, such as refrigeration systems, and are generally reliably fluid tight. Leaks can occur over time, however, due to environmental stress conditions. Deformable ferrules, in combination with compression nut assemblies, either singly, or redundantly, or in counter rotation redundant assembly, secure the flare nut to the fluid transfer tubing in a locking relationship which prevents the loosening of the flare nut-flare connection with subsequent fluid leakage due to these environmental stresses. Enclosing the complete assembly in water proof insulating material, further insures virtually leak proof operation of the improved flare nut union.

Abstract: The hook comprises a C-shaped main portion (1) with a hinging spring-loaded catch (3) at one end and whose free end engages in the other end of the main portion. Both the latter and the catch are profiled, with a narrower rib (5) at one end on which are bosses extending sideways for less than the diameter of the profiled portion. The other end has a recess (7) for the rib and bosses and a stop (11) limiting movement of the catch with a central axial slot (8) leading into a wider portion (9). The bosses (6) are cylindrical, and in them shoulders (10) are formed to accommodate trough-shaped bearing shells (13). The rib and bosses can be on one end of the main portion, while the mating recess is formed in the catch. The shells can form part of the wall of a cylindrical transverse bore (12) passing through the recess (7). The bore diameter can be the same as that of the bosses, its axis being in or below the plane of the shoulders, while the bearing shell is open for a maximum angle of 180 degrees.

Abstract: Apparatus for orienting elongate objects, for example capsules of medicament (8), comprises a passage (9) for receiving an individual capsule in a preferred orientation, a container (12) for holding a bulk supply of capsules, and a ramp surface (13) which directs a capsule towards the passage (9) when the device is positioned such that the passage extends vertically downwardly from the container. It has been found that by appropriate choice of ramp angle, passage diameter and container diameter there is a high probability that a single capsule will be loaded into the dispensing passage when the apparatus is inverted to place the dispensing passage below the bulk supply. The apparatus is particularly useful in a dry medicament dispensing apparatus comprising, in addition to the orienting apparatus, a chamber (7) for receiving capsules from the dispensing passage (9), means for piercing the ends of the capsule, and a mouthpiece (M) for drawing air through the capsule to entrain the medicament. <IMAGE>
