    摘要: An integrated CRRT method and apparatus incorporates steps and means for compensating for heat loss from blood in an extracorporeal circuit. A blood warmer is designed to engage and hold a disposable blood tube segment to transfer heat at a closely controlled temperature to blood flowing in the disposable blood tube segment. Another significant aspect of the present invention is a blood tube segment for engagement with the blood warmer is located in downstream of a dialyzer and upstream of a venous pressure monitor, an air bubble detector and a venous line clamp. The disposable blood tube segment may be selectively connected when heat loss compensation is required and left disconnected when heat loss compensation is not required.

    摘要: A retinal prosthesis with an improved configuration by mounting necessary components within and surrounding the eye. The improved configuration better allows for the implantation of electronics within the delicate eye structure and further limits the necessary width of a thin film conductor passing through the sclera by use of a multiplexer external to the sclera and a demultiplexer internal to the sclera.

    摘要: A finite impulse response filter having tap weight rotation is provided, where each tap has a corresponding coefficient selector. Each coefficient selector includes N coefficients, where N is the number of taps. Each coefficient selector provides one of its corresponding coefficients as an input to a multiplier. Each multiplier also receives an input from a triggered track and hold tap. The tap coefficients are selected according to the time delay since the corresponding track and hold tap was most recently triggered. In this manner, the tendency of multiplier gain nonuniformity to degrade filter operation in the presence of tap weight rotation is reduced. In another embodiment, an offset selector is provided, to reduce the tendency of component offsets to degrade filter operation in the presence of tap weight rotation.

    摘要: A method and system for performing integrated adjustable short-haul/long-haul time domain reflectometry (TDR). A TDR pulse count is set to a predetermined number. Next, a TDR pulse is transmitted through a cable. The width of the TDR pulse is a function of the multiplication of the TDR pulse count with the period of a TDR clock. It is then determined whether the TDR pulse has been reflected back. If the TDR pulse has not been reflected, the TDR pulse count is successively increased to successively increase the width of the transmitted TDR pulse until a reflection is detected—indicating an open in the cable. Furthermore, it eliminates false detections of cable opens. Moreover, the system can be combined into a line interface unit (LIU) integrated circuit such that TDR functionality can be performed automatically without the use of a technician.

    摘要: A temperature controlled storage device for storing food and beverages includes a shell, which defines an interior space and is resiliently flexible. The shell comprises an inner layer and an outer layer that define an internal space, to which addition of air selectively inflates the shell from a collapsed configuration to a semirigid configuration. A top of the shell is reversibly couplable to opposing sides and a front of the shell so that the top is hingable relative to a back of the shell to allow access to the interior space. A closure that extends between the top of the shell and both the opposing sides and the front of the shell is positioned to selectively couple the top to the shell. A temperature control module that is coupled to and positioned in the shell selectively warms and cools the interior space and contents thereof.
