Abstract: The spray dried plasma by the nature of its characteristics and the process by which it is made allows for a dried plasma with reduced pathogens. It has at least three aspects of pathogen reduction that results in a plasma product with reduced or no pathogens. The first aspect relates to a spray drying disposable and machine that eliminates or minimizes the introduction of pathogens into the spray drying process and is referred to as the anti-contamination process. The second aspect of pathogen reduction relates to the spray drying process and parameters that reduces pathogens that may be present in the donor plasma, and/or inhibit pathogen growth and/or pathogen proliferation introduced by the donor plasma. The third aspect results in reduced pathogens occurring during storage of the dried plasma wherein the manufacturing and storage conditions are such that pathogens are reduced, and/or pathogen growth and/or pathogen proliferation are inhibited.

Abstract: A device and a process detect a leak during artificial ventilation of a patient. A measurement system with a sensor arrangement and a sensor fluid guide unit is monitored. A fluid connection is established between a patient-side coupling unit and a medical device with a patient fluid guide unit. A gas sample is branched off from the patient fluid guide unit and guided through the sensor fluid guide unit to the sensor arrangement. A thermal conductivity time course of the gas sample reaching the sensor arrangement is determined with sensor arrangement measured values. Depending on a temporal change in the determined thermal conductivity, a decision is made as to whether there is an indication of a leak between the patient's fluid-guiding unit and the sensor arrangement. The leak establishes a fluid connection between the sensor fluid guide unit and/or the sensor arrangement and the environment.

Abstract: Imaging systems and techniques are described. An imaging system receives image data of an environment according to a first perspective. The imaging system detects an object in the image data. The imaging system generates, based on the image data, reprojected image data of at least a portion of the environment (e.g., representing at least the object) according to a second perspective that is distinct from the first perspective. In some examples, the imaging system generates and outputs an indicator of a status of the object based on the reprojected image data. In some examples, the indicator of the status of the object can indicate a change in the status of the object, such as a change in an illumination characteristic of a light source, a change in content displayed on a display screen, a change in the object's movement, and the like.
