Self-sealing residual compressive stress graft for dialysis

Vascular access systems for performing hemodialysis are disclosed. Some embodiments relate to vascular access grafts comprising an instant access or self-sealing material reinforced with expanded PTFE to resist stretching of the instant access material and thereby resist leakage associated with stretching or bending. The graft may comprise two end segments comprising ePTFE without the instant access material to allow easier anastomosis of the graft to veins and arteries. The graft may have a unibody design or have modular components that may be joined together to create a graft with customized length or other features. One or more sections of the graft may also be cut or trimmed to a custom length.

Serial peripheral interface (SPI) apparatus with write buffer for improving data throughput

A serial peripheral interface apparatus has a second parallel write buffer to load in a subsequent data byte while a current data byte is being transferred serially through the apparatus instead of waiting for the previous data byte to complete the serial transfer and other commands to avoid write collision. The subsequent data byte is transferred into the second parallel write buffer only after the software driven CPU examines the status of a load enable and the status of a write buffer provided by a finite state machine controller. The software driven CPU orders the subsequent data byte to be transferred into the second parallel write buffer when the load enable is favorable and the second parallel write buffer is available. The load enable becomes favorable when a bit counter counts the first half of the transfer of the previous data set. Thus, the second parallel write buffer avoids the stretching the master clock and improves data throughput of the system.

Catalytic reactor cartridge

A reactor cartridge includes a plurality of spaced-apart monoliths, formed along a tube or other mandrel. Each monolith is formed of a pair of flat and corrugated metal strips, spirally wound around the tube. These strips could be made of solid or screen material. The corrugations are skewed, such that the monolith imparts a swirl to gases flowing through it. The corrugations of the strips in adjacent monoliths are oriented differently, so that successive monoliths impart different swirls to the gases, so as to promote mixing of gases and better heat transfer from the exterior to the interior of the cartridge. An insertion and removal tool simplifies the procedure for stacking such cartridges in a long pipe, or for removing cartridges from the pipe. The all-metal construction facilitates heat transfer through the entire reactor, and avoids the problems associated with packed ceramic beds.
