Abstract: The deep catheter dressing consists of a pouch (100) with an aperture (110a) to receive the end of at least one catheter (300a,300b). An adhesive mechanism (200) attaches the pouch to the patient's skin. The adhesive mechanism surrounds the pouch and ensures that it is sealed. It comprises a central strip of a non-woven compress, with apertures (211a,211b) for the catheter ends. It also has an aseptic surface for applying to the patient's skin and an adhesive surface against the pouch. The pouch's aperture (110a) is made in the upper portion of its face in contact with the skin. Its lower portion with the catheter ends is suspended from the skin by the adhesive section. The pouch is made from a supple, transparent and impermeable thermoplastic material such as medical grade polyethylene. Its surface makes contact with the skin round the outside of the adhesive means is covered with a layer of a non-adhesive material which is pleasant to the touch.

Abstract: Commutateur Ethernet validé à régulation de débit appliquant une pression de renfort sur les ports d'entrée tentant de transmettre un paquet de données à un port de destination à grande activité. La pression de renfort est constituée par un paquet fantôme qui provoque l'abandon de la transmission du paquet de données. Lorsque le port de destination est disponible, les paquets fantômes commandent la retransmission, ce qui permet la retransmission normale du paquet de données. Le commutateur peut comporter des mécanismes d'attribution de priorités servant à attribuer une priorité à un port auquel une pression de renfort a été appliquée.
