Abstract: Techniques for multi-stream transactional event processing under ACID semantics in a distributed log-based append-only datastore are described. A transaction coordinator writes events that are part of a transaction to a transaction buffer, where the events can be made visible to clients involved in the transaction while other clients are not aware. Upon committing the transaction, an optimistic concurrency control based technique is utilized to attempt to obtain locks on all events involved in the transaction across one or multiple shards by one or multiple designated writer nodes. When all involved writer nodes indicate that they are able to commit their events, the transaction can be committed.

Abstract: An apparatus for treating a tissue site comprising a negative-pressure source configured to be fluidly coupled to the tissue site; an instillation source configured to be fluidly coupled to the tissue site; and a controller operatively coupled to the negative-pressure source and to the instillation source. The controller can be configured to operate the negative-pressure source and the instillation source to intermittently deliver negative pressure to the tissue site for a negative-pressure interval and deliver instillation fluid to the tissue site for an instillation interval. A purge volume of instillation fluid may be delivered to the tissue site at a purge frequency. In some examples, the purge volume may be delivered through the second fluid conductor and removed through the first fluid conductor during a negative-pressure interval.

Abstract: In one example embodiment, a system for treating a tissue site is disclosed comprising a dressing adapted to contact the tissue site and provide a fluid seal between a therapeutic environment and a local external environment, and a solution source fluidly coupled to the dressing and adapted to deliver an antimicrobial solution comprising a peroxy ?-keto carboxylic acid, such as peroxy pyruvic acid, to the tissue interface. The system may further comprise a negative-pressure source fluidly coupled to the dressing and adapted to provide negative pressure to the therapeutic environment after delivery of the antimicrobial fluid to the therapeutic environment.

Abstract: Dressings for treating a tissue site with negative pressure are disclosed, which may include a dressing having multiple layers and incorporating a material adapted to neutralize proteolytic enzymes. In one example embodiment, a dressing may include a first layer comprising a hydrophobic gel having a plurality of apertures. A material adapted to neutralize proteolytic enzymes may be applied to a surface of the first layer. The dressing may further include a second layer comprising a fenestrated film and coupled to the first layer. Additionally, the dressing may include a third layer comprising a manifold, which in some instances may be a polymeric foam. The dressing may further include a fourth layer comprising a polymer drape.

Abstract: A system, apparatus and method for delivering negative pressure and vibrations proximate a wound site. The system comprises a dressing adapted to be fluidly coupled to the wound site and further adapted to translate vibrations to the wound site. A pad is coupled to a negative pressure source and to the dressing. The pad is also coupled to a vibration module. The system further comprises a drape covering the dressing and the pad and forming a seal between the wound site and the environment. The vibration module fluidly couples to the dressing and provides vibrations during application of negative pressure.

Abstract: An electric motor built for exposure to high pressure fluid includes a unitary metal sleeve that provides a fluid barrier between the rotor and the stator. An overmolded resin encapsulates the stator windings and reinforces the sleeve to minimize deformation of the sleeve under high fluid pressures. The overmolded resin also fixes the positions of insulation displacement connectors connected to the stator windings, thereby avoiding mechanical brackets and fasteners for holding the insulation displacement connectors in position.

Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to enabling migration of services between a first and second environment, while maintaining a local availability of those servers within the first environment. Specifically, embodiments enable the services to remain locally available with the first environment without modification of operation of clients within the first environment. A migration gateway is provided in the first environment that, on migration of a service from the first to the second environment, can announce availability of the service at the gateway. The gateway can then act as a proxy for the service in the second environment. In one configuration, the gateway adopts an Internet Protocol (IP) address of a server that has been migrated, such that clients may be unaware that migration has occurred.

Abstract: Disclosed embodiments relate to devices and systems for providing both negative-pressure therapy and instillation, In some embodiments, both negative-pressure and instillation may be provided to a tissue site in a low-profile context that may also prevent siphoning of instillation fluid during negative pressure application. For example, a single bridge may include a negative-pressure pathway with supports and an instillation pathway, and the instillation pathway may be configured with respect to the negative-pressure pathway so that at least a portion of the instillation pathway collapses upon application of negative pressure to the negative-pressure pathway. Collapse of at least a portion of the instillation pathway may be sufficient to close the instillation pathway.

Abstract: A dressing interface for connecting a negative-pressure source to a dressing may have a coupling member comprising an aperture, a first adhesive region having a first region peel strength, and a second adhesive region having a second region peel strength less than the first region peel strength. The dressing interface may further have a flange coupled to the coupling member, and a conduit housing coupled to the flange and extending through the aperture in the contact layer.

Abstract: In some non-limiting examples, a system for stimulating tissue growth at a tissue site may include an interactive body including a body mass and a tissue contact surface configured to contact the tissue site. A plurality of struts and a plurality of voids may be exposed at the tissue contact surface, and may define a tissue interface pattern at the tissue contact surface. The tissue interface pattern may be configured to engage the tissue site and to create tissue deformation in combination with the body mass. Also provided are other systems, apparatus, and methods suitable for stimulating tissue growth.

Abstract: A multi-layer dressing for treating tissue with negative pressure, instillation, or both. In some embodiments a first layer may be formed from reticulated foam having a series of holes. A second layer disposed adjacent to the first layer may be formed from a perforated polymer. The dressing may optionally include a third layer formed from a soft polymer, such as a silicone gel. The third layer may also have perforations or apertures. The third layer is generally oriented to face a tissue site, and may be disposed adjacent to the first layer so that the first layer is disposed between the third layer and the first layer. The perforations or apertures in the third layer may be registered with one or more perforations in the first layer.

The contact layer may include walls defining a plurality of through-holes. A sealing member may be positioned over the contact layer and sealed to tissue surrounding the tissue site to form a sealed space enclosing the contact layer. A negative-pressure source may be fluidly coupled to the sealed space. The negative-pressure source may supply negative pressure to the sealed space and the contact layer to draw tissue into the through-holes to form nodules. The negative pressure may be vented from the sealed space to release the nodules.
