Abstract: A catheter (10) for monitoring heart function comprises a catheter tube (12) having a plurality of lumens (14, 16, 18, 20, 22, 24, 26). The catheter (10) includes an inflatable balloon (68) at a distal tip of the catheter tube (12) for positioning the catheter (10) in a wedged position within a pulmonary artery within the heart of a patient. Dual injectate ports (80, 82) are formed in a side wall of the catheter tube (12). Each port (80, 82) communicates with a respective injectate lumen (24, 26) carried in the catheter tube (12). When inserted into the heart (100) of a patient, either the first (80) or second (82) injectate port is positioned within the desired distance from the tricuspid valve (120) for thermodilution depending upon the size of the heart (100). Thermodilution to obtain cardiac output and/or right heart ejection fraction is implemented by injecting injectate through the lumen (24, 26) associated with the port (80, 82) properly positioned relative the tricuspid valve (120) and discharged through the corresponding port (80, 82).

Abstract: On introduit et on stocke l'urine du bétail dans un collecteur d'urine, et selon le cas on sépare les matières solides de l'urine afin d'extraire complètement les excréments liquides dont le constituant principal est l'urine. On introduit ces excréments liquides dans un réservoir de traitement, auxquels on ajoute divers types de petits morceaux de roche et de l'humus afin de provoquer une bioréaction dans une atmosphère ventilée, de manière qu'une réaction de formation d'humus a lieu du aux actions de l'humus et des microorganismes de la terre contenus dans les excréments liquides sous la forme de matière brute. Les divers types de petits morceaux de roche ajoutés remplissent une fonction de catalyseur afin de promouvoir la réaction de formation d'humus pour activer les microorganismes de la terre, ce qui conduit les excréments à former de l'humus en phase ultime. Ainsi il est possible de traiter ces excréments liquides de manière rapide et efficace et de les transformer en une matière non nocive sans odeur, et également de transformer les excréments liquides en un concentré de microorganismes de terre actifs et leur produit métabolique, et d'utiliser ledit concentré efficacement comme matière à usage agricole.

Abstract: The invention describes a folding principle which can be universally applied for maps and town plans, which leads to a smaller format (4), compared to the initial format, by using diagonal folding lines (3) in the four corners of a rectangular sheet, which smaller format is once again reduced in size by further folding. Variants result from additionally providing the initial format with additional areas which have been folded over, so that, on the one hand, the principle of the folding can be maintained, the sheet, on the other hand, when unfolded completely, is largely increased by the areas of the edges which have been folded over. The folding principle permits a decidedly improved handling of town plans and street maps, the required space being extremely small in the state in which is folded up completely. It is possible, easily and without the risk of mis-folding, to unfold and fold up again a sheet which has been folded using this principle. In addition, the folding makes it possible to extend the area which can be sensibly used for continuous printing to the reverse side of the sheet and to save paper and costs in this way. <IMAGE>   <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention relates to a system for transmitting packet data in the air interface of a digital cellular system based on TDMA, Time Division Multiple Access. The mobile terminated logical channels comprise information channels designated for transmitting information and control channels, which can be a fast paging (FP) channel and an acknowledgement (A) channel. The mobile originated logical channels comprise information channels designated for transmitting information and a reservation (R) channel, whereon the mobile station requests the system to reserve a connection for transmitting packet data. According to the invention, for the TDMA frames there is allocated a variable number of time slots for packet transmission, taking into account the symmetricity/asymmetricity of the packet transmission, as well as the total packet transmission demand of the cell. For fast paging (FP), acknowledgement (A) and reservation (R), there can be employed any of the time slots in the frame allocated for packet transmission. It is advantageous that in each time slot, the subscriber's data is subjected to the same interleaving and forward error coding algorithm, so that the respective time slots of consecutive frames form independent logical sub-channels, which are then reserved for one subscriber according to the needs, and to which the subscriber's data is multiplexed at the beginning of the transmission, and wherefrom it is again demultiplexed after the transmission. <IMAGE>
