[Portable ventilators].

Abstract

Simple, portable, manageable ventilators have been successfully designed to ensure a patient's ventilation in situ, which means to maintain a patient's respiratory functions at the place where he/she suffers his/her respiratory crisis and during his/her trip to an appropriate medical center. These ventilators are also useful as an at home respiratory support mechanism for those who suffer from chronic respiratory deficiencies caused by various etiologies.

Steam sterilizable probes for dissolved oxygen measurement. Reprinted from Biotechnology and Bioengineering, Vol. VI, Issue 4, Pages 457-468 (1964).

Steam-sterilizable membrane probes for monitoring the dissolved oxygen level in fermentors, or the oxygen content of gas streams, are described. The probes have a silver cathode, a lead anode, and an acetate buffer as an electrolyte. The membrane is Teflon. The current output of the probes in the absence of oxygen is negligible.
