US Classification:

257/347000, 438/155000

Abstract:

A semiconductor memory device comprising: an SOI substrate having a thin silicon layer on top of a buried insulator; and an SRAM comprising four NFETs and two PFETs located in the thin silicon layer, each the NFET and PFET having a body region between a source region and a drain region, wherein the bodies of two of the NFETs are electrically connected to ground. Additionally, the bodies of the two PFETs are electrically connected to V.

Appl. No.:

12/643398

Inventors:

Robert T. Gauthier - San Diego CA, US

International Classification:

A61M 5/142
A61B 5/153
A61B 17/132

US Classification:

604 31, 600584, 606203

Abstract:

An integrated patient monitoring and control system is provided which includes a SITS, the SITS being adapted for coupling to the patient to obtain a specimen from the patient, a sensor, the sensor being adapted to receive the specimen from the SITS and to analyze the sample, a medication control unit, the medication control unit receiving information from the sensor, and utilizing that information to determine medication dosing information for the patient, and a medication administration system, the medication administration system receiving the dosing information from the medication control unit, and adapted to cause administration of the medication to the patient. If the SITS is adapted for blood draw, the system advantageously is performed in conjunction with a pneumatic pressure cuff, inflated so as to aid in blood draw.

International Classification:

A61M 100

US Classification:

604 28

Abstract:

A feedback controlled drug delivery system includes automated blood sampling and analysis and dosing of the patient. Automated sampling is performed by direct analysis of patient blood, such as for measurement of its coagulation state. A novel manifold includes a fluid input port, a patient port adapted to output fluid and to receive a blood sample from the patient, and a fluid pathway connecting the fluid port and the patient port. A sample line is connected to the fluid pathway to provide the sample to an analyzer. In one aspect of this invention, the sample is forced through the sample line by isolating the patient port, such as by a valve, and non-drug fluid is forced into the manifold causing the blood to cross through the sample line. Alternately, a pump force may be utilized on the sample line. In another aspect of this invention, a positive interlock system is utilized between a drug source and the system.

International Classification:

A61B 500

US Classification:

600578

Abstract:

A feedback controlled drug delivery system includes the automated sampling and analysis of a patient sample and dosing the patient based on the analysis. Automated sampling may be performed by direct analysis of the patient sample, such as for the measurement of a blood sample coagulation state or a glucose level. The drug delivery system includes a sample set that has a bidirectional patient tube that allows for delivery of the patient sample to an analyzer, and at another time, the infusion of a therapeutic drug. A controller receives a measurement from the analyzer, and based on that measurement, adjusts the delivery of the therapeutic fluid. The sample set has a quick--clear Leur fitting that allows for more effectively clearing a first fluid from a Leur fitting when starting a second fluid. The system also has a reagent cassette holder that protects, using a foam gasket, a reagent on a sample slide. Further, the system provides an interlock apparatus that assures a sample tube is occluded by either or both a slide clamp and by a platen arm compressing the sample tube to a peristaltic pump.
