Abstract: An aerosol-generating device is provided, including: an outer housing; a heater configured to heat an aerosol-forming substrate; and a plurality of layers of thermal insulation arranged around at least a part of the heater, the plurality of layers of thermal insulation including a first thermal insulation layer, a second thermal insulation layer, a radiation reflector layer being arranged between the first and the second thermal insulation layers, and a heat spreader layer including the outer housing of the aerosol-generating device. An aerosol-generating system is also provided, including the aerosol-generating device and an aerosol-generating article including an aerosol-generating substrate.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems and methods for safe operation of a wound treatment apparatus with electronic components integrated on or within a wound dressing. In some embodiments, the electronic components include a power source, an isolation circuit, a controller, a capacitor, and a negative pressure source. The isolation circuit provides multiple activation states with at least one state preventing application of power to the other electronic components capable of storing electrical energy, thereby providing a safe operation of the apparatus. For example, sterilization of the apparatus can be performed safely.
