Steady insufflation of a gas starts before the beginning of each inhalation, and a pulse-like peak flow insufflation of the gas is superposed on the steady insufflation for a short period of times at the beginning of the inhalation, and the steady insufflation is terminated before the end of the inh ...
A breath-synchronized concentrated-oxygen supplier comprising an oxygen concentrator for producing and storing oxygen-enriched gas, and a buffer tank having an inlet connected to the oxygen concentrator and an outlet for temporarily storing the oxygen-enriched gas obtained from the concentrator. A v ...
In a receiver for an OFDM modulated transmission signal including at least one synchronizing symbol in each frame, the synchronizing symbol is located by stepwise shifting a window along a reception sample sequence to make a cross-correlation calculator (55) calculate cross-correlation values betwee ...
Method and apparatus for analyzing the propagation of arterial pulse waves in a patient's circulatory system. The apparatus comprises R-wave detecting means for outputting an R-wave timing signal at the time of detection of the R-wave component contained in a detected electrocardiographic signal. A ...
An emergency resuscitation endoesophageal airway comprises an arch-shaped respiration tube closed at a distal end but opened at a proximal end; a first inflatable balloon of a rubber-like elastic material attached to the respiration tube at a position close to the distal end thereof for closing an e ...
A method of producing oxygen rich gas utilizing an oxygen concentrator having a plurality of parallel-connected moisture/nitrogen removing units alternately operated to produce an oxygen-rich gas and connected through respective flow regulating valves to a common buffer tank for storing the gas thus ...
An oxygen concentrator for supplying enriched oxygen gas to an open breathing system of a human being or the like in synchronization with a breathing cycle of a patient is disclosed, comprising a thermocouple sensor and a control device for synchronizing the timing of opening an electromagnetic valv ...
A pharyngeal airway tube, without inserting any foreign matters in the trachea (T), can be easily inserted through the oral cavity (O) in the lower pharynx (P), and is capable of hermetically sealing a transitional region from the lower pharynx to the esophagus (E) and the periphery of the laryngeal ...
A cuff pressure regulator for controlling the pressure in an annular, collapsible and inflatable bag-like cuff of a cuffed endotracheal tube inserted in a patient's trachea, while allowing superposition of the patient's ventilatory pressure variation on the cuff pressure. The regulator has a second ...
In a fuel discharge preventive device of a gas engine, in order to prevent high-pressure gaseous fuel remaining in a fuel distributing pipe when an engine is stopped, from leaking out of a gaseous fuel injection valve to be discharged to the open air, a fuel shut-off valve is provided in a fuel feed ...
