摘要： Counterpulsation methods and systems for assisting the heart of a patient involve, for example, coordinating the operation of a pulsatile pump to suction blood from an artery through a first conduit while the heart is in systole and expel the blood into the first conduit and the artery while the heart is in diastole.

摘要： The invention is a method, triggering unit, and system for activating an oxygen scavenging composition at high speeds. The triggering unit includes a plurality of UV lamps that can operate at increased temperatures and have high output intensites from about 10 to 35 mW/cm2. The triggering unit can activate films at speeds from about 20 to 100 fps. Mercury amalgam lamps are useful in the practice of the invention. The invention also includes a UV dose management system and film tensioning system that facilitates triggering at high film speeds. The UV dose management system controls the amount of UV exposure that the film receives so that the oxygen scavenging rate of the activated composition can be controlled.

摘要： Continuous-feed plasma treater systems are designed to treat continuous substrates, such as webs or films, by continuously feeding the substrates through an enclosure having a plasma discharge that alters the substrate's surface properties in some desirable fashion. The plasma discharges are generated by one or more electrode assemblies housed within the enclosure. In general, the plasma treater systems of the present invention have one or more cylinder-sleeve electrode assemblies and/or one or more cylindrical cavity electrode assemblies. A cylinder-sleeve electrode assembly comprises a cylinder electrode and a sleeve electrode positioned with its concave face facing and substantially parallel to the cylinder electrode to form an annular gap between the outer surface of the cylinder electrode and the inner surface of the sleeve electrode. The electrode assembly is adapted to be excited to generate a plasma within the annular gap to form a primary plasma discharge zone for exposure of the plasma to a substrate. A cylindrical cavity electrode assembly comprises (1) a cavity electrode, having a cylindrical bore and a wall slot running parallel to the cylindrical bore and exposing the cylindrical bore; (2) a cylinder electrode coaxially positioned within the cylindrical bore of the cavity electrode to form an annular gap between the outer surface of the cylinder electrode and the surface of the cylindrical bore, the annular gap forming a primary plasma discharge zone; and (3) a treater drum positioned adjacent to the wall slot of the cavity electrode. During operations, the substrate is translated past the wall slot by the treater drum and exposed to plasma species that are convected from the primary plasma discharge zone to the wall slot. Plasma treater systems of the present invention can be used (a) to treat substrates in an efficient cost-effective manner and (b) to produce treated substrates having superior surface properties as compared to those generated using prior-art systems, such as corona-type discharge systems.
