    摘要: Methods and apparatus for sterilizing or disinfecting a region through a bandage. One embodiment of the invention is directed to a method, comprising acts of determining the transmissivity of at least a portion of a bandage to ultraviolet light, and selecting an intensity of ultraviolet light to be applied through at least a portion of the bandage. Another embodiment of the invention is directed to a method of sterilizing or disinfecting a region underneath a bandage on a patient. A further embodiment of the invention is directed to an apparatus for sterilizing or disinfecting a region of tissue of a patient. The apparatus comprises an ultraviolet light-emitting lamp and a bandage adapted to transmit at least some of the ultraviolet light emitted by the lamp. Another embodiment of the invention is directed to a bandage, comprising an ultraviolet light-transmissive film, and a color-changing material coupled to the film to indicate an exposure of the film to ultraviolet light.

    摘要: Gas flow metering using a capacitance measurement and comprising a taut elastomeric membrane, preferably tubular in form, which expands or contracts as a function of flow rate past it to an extent determined by Bernouilli's principle. The thus changing distance between this membrane and one or more external electrodes measured by capacitance change or other means is correlatable with the instantaneous flow rate and such measurement can be made essentially without regard to entrained solids or liquids in the gas flow, phase and temperature changes (moderate) within the gas flow or mixture or changing composition therein and with rapid response and low back pressure.
