Pain is a common complaint of patients cared for by EMS providers. The NAEMSP currently supports every EMS system having a policy to address prehospital pain management. Several studies have shown that oligoanalgesia is more the rule than the exception in prehospital care. There are physiological and non‐physiological benefits to prehospital analgesia, including improved patient comfort and improved...
This paper deals with the description of a method for the measurement of friction force between a very small object (80 to 300 mum) and a support. The goal is to design a feeder based on controlled mechanical vibrations in order to drive microcomponents by breaking the friction force. The contact model is based on the Hertz theory and the Greenwood-Williamson multi-asperity model. The amplitude of...
The paper deals with a fully integrated LC filter for terrestrial TV reception [42 MHz...870 MHz] that has been designed in a SiP (System in Package) technology. A tunable DC- DC converter from 0 to 24 V, implemented in Bi-CMOS 0.25 mum technology with 2.8 V supply voltage, generates the high tuning voltage required for a very linear variable capacitors.
The DAΦNE Phi-factory upgrade, foreseen for the SIDDHARTA detector run in 2007, requires a new magnetic and mechanical layout to exploit the "large Piwinski angle" and "crab waist" concepts [1]. New permanent quadrupole magnets and aluminium vacuum chamber with thin window have been designed for the new interaction region, with the aim to reuse as far as possible the present magnetic...
A SiP tuner is designed for both terrestrial and cable reception of all analog and digital TV standards. It has 5dB of NF over the 48 to 862MHz frequency band. LC tracking filters allow for achieving 55dB weighted video SNR in loaded spectrum conditions. The active die, implemented in a 40GHz-ft BiCMOS process, occupies 5.7mm2 and consumes 750mW.
