摘要:
In one configuration, an adherent device to adhere to a skin of a subject includes a stretchable base layer having an upper side and a lower side and an adhesive coating on the lower side to adhere the base layer to the skin of the subject. The base layer has at least two openings extending therethrough, each of the at least two openings having a size. The adherent device also includes a stretchable covering layer positioned above and adhered to the base layer with an adhesive to define at least two pockets. The adherent device also includes at least two gels, each gel having a size larger than the size of openings to retain the gel substantially within the pocket, and a circuit carrier supported with the stretchable base layer to measure at least one physiologic signal of the subject. Other configurations and methods are also claimed.
摘要:
Methods and devices for monitoring and/or treating patients comprise a switch to automatically start-up the device when the device contacts tissue. By automatically starting up the device, the device may be installed without the clinician and/or user turning on the device, such that the device can be easy to use. In many embodiments, the device comprises startup circuitry with very low current and/or power consumption, for example less than 100 pA. The startup circuitry can detect tissue contact and turn on circuitry that is used to monitor or treat the patient.
摘要:
A device configuration method and apparatus initializes a device such as at least one graphics processor, by detecting whether the at least one graphics processor requires a dedicated address space. If the device requires a dedicated address space, boot up code, such as the system bios, maps the dedicated address space to another address space prior to running of an operating system. This is done based on, for example, using at least one subclass code bit in a class code register in configuration space memory as both a device function identifier and as control data to control mapping of the dedicated address space to another address space. The method and apparatus provides a type of universal method and apparatus for relocating or disabling, for example, VGA resources, through PCI registers or other suitable registers while maintaining legacy processing for graphics and video applications.
摘要:
A method of linking peripheral devices to a single interrupt procedure in a computer is comprised of storing in an interrupt vector table of a BIOS ROM, a first pointer to an interrupt service routine related to one of a group of peripheral devices which use the same interrupt request (IRQ) on the same software interrupt vector, and storing further pointer in each one of the peripheral devices to another unique one of the peripheral devices in the group.
