Abstract: Dams and methods for modifying deep-release dam water intakes are provided. In an example, a dam for holding back and releasing water comprises: a dam body having a first side and a second side, the dam body configured to hold the water on the first side of the dam body; at least one intake formed in the dam body, the at least one intake having a first opening defined on the first side and a second opening defined on the second side, for releasing the water from the first opening to the second opening; and a dam modification element on the first side of the dam body, and configured to supply to the first opening of the at least one intake the water from a position higher than the first opening.

Abstract: A super-oxygenated fluid selected from water, an aqueous solution and a gel is introduced to a living organism via any one of the following routes: transcutaneous, intradermal, subcutaneous, intraperitoneal and oral.

Abstract: This invention relates to a process through which intravenous fluids, blood, or artificial blood containing high-levels of mechanically-injected dissolved oxygen can be used to maintain appropriate oxygen levels in the venous blood and thereby provide short-term oxygenation support for compromised or trauma patients. In one aspect, there is provided a system and process for oxygenating a biological fluid for use in a compromised or a trauma subject in need of oxygenation support to maintain appropriate oxygen levels in the subject, the process comprising: supplying oxygen gas from an oxygen source; and dissolving an amount of the supplied oxygen into a biological fluid to obtain an oxygen enriched biological fluid.
