    摘要: A method and apparatus for validating a user configuration of a computer system are provided. The method generally includes receiving, through a user interface of a configuration system, a user configuration selection, wherein the user configuration selection modifies the configuration of the computer system. Based on the user configuration selection, one or more contexts in a collection of contexts may be modified. The collection of contexts may be applied to part information for a part of the computer system to determine applicable part information for the modified configuration.

    摘要: A device (100) for treating a stiffened blood vessel comprises a self-supporting, surgically implantable, elongate casing (101) adapted to extend about and restrain a stiffened portion (2) of the blood vessel. The casing (101) defines an elongate cavity (103) for receipt of the stiffened portion (2) of the blood vessel. The cavity (103) has a transverse cross-section with an aspect ratio of greater than one in an unloaded state. The casing (103) is configured such that, upon application of increasing pressure to the casing (101) from within said cavity (103), the casing (103) elastically deforms such that the aspect ratio decreases towards one and the area of the cross-section increases.

    摘要: Methods for determining central systolic pressure are disclosed. A first method determines the time of peak in a measured carotid waveform and then determines the pressure in a measured radial waveform at the corresponding time. A second method utilises only a measured radial waveform. The waveform is analysed to determine a time indicative of lower body waveform and determines the pressure at this time. In each case, the determined pressure is substantially the same as the central systolic pressure.

    摘要: The present invention relates to the use of the arterial pressure waveform recorded invasively or non-invasively, to distinguish between compensatory vasoconstriction with low cardiac output on the one hand from vasodilation from more severe organ damage on the other, as a cause of hypotension in acute emergencies. The waveforms may be subjected to harmonic analysis and the moduli of their harmonic components compared whereby a hypotensive individual can be confirmed to have the higher the first harmonic is considered as having vasoconstriction as a cause of hypotension.
