Inventor: MAYNARD RONALD S
IPC: A61M25/01

Abstract: A flexible VLSI film containing shape memory alloy (SMA) actuator elements and associated control and driver circuitry is wrapped around any bendable element such as a flexible, hollow tube, catheter tube or the like. The SMA actuator elements are thus spatially distributed around the circumference of the bendable element. The SMA actuator elements are selectively resistively heated with an electric current through associated decode and driver circuitry, thereby causing a portion of the film to contract. The radical distribution of the SMA actuator elements across the surface of the VLSI actuator film is such that when properly activated, a device sheathed with the VLSI film is capable of executing highly dexterous maneuvers in three-dimensional space, which was not heretofore possible. The actuator elements are self-guided in that control circuitry, decode circuitry and associated microprocessors, including position mapping means are fabricated in VLSI integrally with the SMA actuator elements. Alternatively, a microprocessor controller may be located at a remote location while communicating with associated driver circuitry on the actuator film.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un appareil pour appliquer un rayonnement laser sur un substrat (20, 120) et comportant une source de rayonnement laser (1), un dispositif d'application (2) permettant de transmettre le rayonnement laser depuis la source, une tête d'application (3) dirigeant sur le substrat le rayonnement laser émanant du dispositif d'application. La tête d'application possède un élément d'isolation qui isole une zone cible sélectionnée de son environnement en empêchant pratiquement le rayonnement laser de s'échapper, et la tête d'application est également pourvue d'un élément de visualisation qui permet à un opérateur d'observer la zone cible sélectionnée. L'appareil trouve notamment son application dans la polymerisation de revêtements dentaires prophylactiques ou restauratifs, tels que des compositions dentaires vitreuses ou des sols-gels.

Abstract: A carrier impregnated at spaced locations along its circumference with a dose of powdered medicament. The carrier is selectively indexed so as to present the impregnated doses of medicament seriatim between a pair of holes in an upper and lower pressure plate in an inhalator. Air is forced through the holes in the pressure plates and the encapsulated dose on the carrier to entrain a dose of the powdered medicament, which is then inhaled through a mouthpiece, by the patient-user. The powdered medicament is embedded in and across interstices in the carrier formed by intersecting and sometimes offset depressions on each surface of the carrier, providing corners and surfaces to cause the medicament entrained in the air stream to break up as it is pressed up against and passed through the carrier infrastructure to aerosol or atomize the same so that the medicament is presented in appropriate particle sizes for maximum benefit when inhaled.

Abstract: Le diffuseur à ailettes de la présente invention comporte un logement muni d'une première (10) et d'une seconde (22) parois d'écoulement définissant un chemin d'écoulement pour le flux de sortie produit par un rotor (12). Des ailettes torsadées (34) sont montées sur une structure mobile capable d'effectuer un déplacement à l'intérieur de la chambre (24) adjacente à la première paroi d'écoulement. Les ailettes torsadées s'étendent à travers des structures rotatives (42a) contenues dans une relation de rotation à l'intérieur des parois d'écoulement, de sorte que les ailettes sont disposées coulissantes en travers du chemin d'écoulement. Le mouvement latéral de la structure mobile déplace les ailettes torsadées au travers du flux de sortie, ce qui fait varier l'angle de décalage de l'ailette en fonction de la zone de l'ailette torsadée qui reçoit le flux de sortie. Les structures rotatives comportent des ouvertures de forme torsadée qui correspondent à la section transversale et à la courbure de l'ailette, ce qui fait que les structures rotatives tournent facilement lorsque les ailettes torsadées se déplacent à l'intérieur de ces structures.

Abstract: The present invention is an assay for determining glycoprotein IIb/IIIa receptor blockade in whole blood. Agglutinization of small polymeric beads coated with a glycoprotein IIb/IIIa ligand such as fibrinogen results when the beads are contacted with whole blood containing platelets with glycoprotein IIb/IIIa receptors that are not blocked. Failure to agglutinate indicates that blockade of the GPIIb/IIIa receptors has been achieved. In a preferred embodiment, the addition of a thrombin receptor activator results in an assay that is rapid and convenient enough to be performed at the bedside and that results in agglutination of the small polymeric beads within a convenient, known period of time if the glycoprotein IIb/IIIa receptors are not blocked.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un procédé de gestion de l'enregistrement d'une unité de communications sans fil, dans un système de communications desservant une zone géographique divisée en cellules. Chaque cellule émet un signal d'identification unique, contenant une hiérarchie d'informations qui concernent les relations spatiales entre la cellule et d'autres cellules de la zone desservie. Une unité de communications sans fil possède un facteur de masquage dont la valeur dépend de la mobilité relative de l'unité, de la fréquence de communications et de l'infrastructure du système ainsi que de ses ressources. L'unité utilise le facteur de masquage pour déterminer une partie importante de chaque signal d'identification reçu par l'unité. A mesure que l'unité de communications sans fil se déplace à travers la zone desservie, cette partie du signal d'identification de la cellule où se trouve l'unité est comparée à la partie correspondante du signal d'identification de la cellule où l'unité a été enregistrée en dernier lieu. Cette comparaison est effectuée pour déterminer si une relation présélectionnée existe entre la cellule où se trouve l'unité et la cellule du dernier enregistrement. L'unité de communications sans fil n'est enregistrée qu'après avoir déterminé que la relation déterminée d'avance existe, ce qui réduit au minimum le nombre de fois où l'unité de communications sans fil est enregistrée, sans que l'efficacité de la communication ne soit diminuée.
