Abstract: Method for determining the continuity of endoscope channels in which a predetermined fluid amount with a predetermined pressure is fed through a channel to be tested (9) and the resulting time taken to complete the fluid passage measured and evaluated. The predetermined fluid quantity is determined from the volume of the fluid container.  The invention also relates to a corresponding device which comprises a fluid container (1), whose outlet is connected to the channel, a compressed air source (12) that acts on the fluid in the container, and a sensor (14) that measures the fluid level in the container and determines when it has fallen below a preset value. A control unit (16) measures the time duration within which a predetermined volume has flow through the channel under test.

Abstract: The signal in the first path has a switched-on state (S1) and a switched-off state (S1'). The signal in the second path (S2,S2') is an inverse of the first signal. Switching on and off occur at given times (t1-4). When the first signal is switched off, the second signal is switched on during a short switching period (ts).  Switching off of the second signal may trigger switching on of the first signal during the switching period. The output signal (S3,S3') is derived by switching on when the first signal switches off and off when the second signal is switched off.

Abstract: Timer generates a first time code with a relatively high
resolution. Second time code, given from a reproduction device in
relation to video or music reproduced by the reproduction device,
has a resolution lower than the first time code. By correcting the
timer-generated first time code on the basis of the second time code,
there can be generated a corrected first time code having a same
over-time progression as the second time code but having a higher
resolution than the second time code. Once an operator, such as a
mixer, is operated at given reproduction timing of the video or music
during recording, data indicative of the operation is stored in a
memory along with the first time code corrected in accordance with
the second time code. In reproduction, the memory is read in
accordance with the first time code, corrected on the basis of the
second time code.

Abstract: A micro-actuator, its manufacturing method, an optical pickup head of an
optical recording/reproducing apparatus having the micro-actuator, and its
manufacturing method are disclosed. A low voltage and low power bi-directional
driving is accomplished so that a size and a weight of a system can be
considerably reduced and a response speed can be improved. A uniformity and a
production efficiency are heightened by reducing a alignment tolerance. In addition,
a configuration tolerance caused due to an uneven thickness of a protection layer
of the record layer on the disk and an uneven smoothness of the disk is corrected,
so that a focal point of an objective lens can be optimally made on a record layer
of the disk.

the mobile station where the base band section includes the AGC block that contains an
AC coupling capacitance coupled in series with a first resistance (R1) between an input
node of the AGC block and an input to the gain element. This method has steps of
operating the AC coupling capacitance and the first resistance as a first order low pass
filter for attenuating the AC value of an input signal, and closing at least one switch for
switching in additional capacitance and resistance for transforming the first order low
pass filter to a second order low pass filter for increasing the attenuation of the AC value
of the input signal. In these various embodiments circuit topologies are described for
both inverting and non-inverting operational amplifier implementations.

Abstract: Cyclic redundancy codes are obtained to verify the integrity of a message transmitted between a sender and a receiver. One method for obtaining a cyclic redundancy code includes separating the message into segments. Remainders are obtained for those segments based on a generator polynomial. The remainders for those segments are multiplied by a segment-constant to obtain segment-remainders for each segment. The segment-remainders are accumulated into an accumulated-remainder. The accumulated-remainder is moduloed by the generator polynomial to obtain a remainder for the accumulated-remainder. The remainder for the accumulated-remainder is the cyclic redundancy code for the message.

Abstract: A system and method determines parameters (170) for rendering headphone audio information, based on a user's preferred acoustic rendering in a non-headphone environment. A user configures a loudspeaker-based system for a preferred ambiance. Microphones (150) on a head-mounted device then detect the audio signals received by the user in this environment. These detected signals are compared to the audio information that is being provided by the user's audio system and the differences are used to characterize the user's particular environment. Based on this characterization, when the user uses a headphone device (250) to listen to the audio information, a headphone driver (260) modifies the audio information to produce audio signals at the speakers in the user's headphone (250) to effectively reproduce the audio signals that would have been produced at the user's ears by the loudspeakers (110) in the user's particular environment.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne une méthode permettant de soulager rapidement une douleur aiguë chez un patient nécessitant un tel traitement, et consistant à administrer, par voie orale, une préparation unitaire (ou une forme posologique orale) contenant une dose analgésique efficace (a) d'oxycodone ou d'un sel pharmaceutiquement acceptable dudit composé, et (b) d'ibuprofène ou d'un sel pharmaceutiquement acceptable dudit composé. De préférence, la préparation unitaire contient (a) de l'oxycodone ou un sel pharmaceutiquement acceptable dudit composé, et (b) de l'ibuprofène ou un sel pharmaceutiquement acceptable dudit composé, le rapport en poids de ces composés étant compris entre environ 1:20 et environ 1:100, de préférence entre environ 1:40 et environ 1:80, sur la base des poids des équivalents molaires respectifs de l'hydrochlorure d'oxycodone et de l'ibuprofène. De préférence, on administre une dose d'oxycodone et d'ibuprofène efficace pour produire un soulagement partiel ou total de la douleur en 30 minutes. De préférence encore, cette dose est suffisante pour produire un soulagement partiel ou total de la douleur en 25 minutes. On a découvert que l'administration d'une forme posologique orale contenant de l'oxycodone et de l'ibuprofène permet de soulager la douleur plus rapidement qu'avec l'administration séparée de ces ingrédients. En outre, le soulagement rapide de la douleur peut être au moins en partie attribué à l'administration d'une forme posologique unique contenant les deux ingrédients actifs, par opposition à l'administration d'oxycodone et d'ibuprofène en formes posologiques orales séparées (soit l'administration d'une première forme posologique contenant l'oxycodone et d'une seconde forme posologique contenant l'ibuprofène). La méthode de la présente invention est particulièrement utile pour traiter la douleur postopératoire aiguë, et notamment la douleur postopératoire aiguë modérée et/ou sévère (telle que celle résultant d'une chirurgie dentaire), entre autres.
