A diagnostic system, for a valve (2), having a sensor (12) that senses structure-borne noise and having a device (14) for evaluating a measurement signal (13) of the structure-borne noise. During a calibration process, a first progression of the measurement signal is sensed for the closed position of the valve (2) and a first value (w1) of a characteristic is determined. To simulate leakage noise, the valve (2) is nearly closed during operation, a second progression of the measurement signal is sensed and a second value (w2) is determined. If the deviation of the second value from the first value is sufficiently large, a diagnosis is possible. A third progression of the measurement signal is sensed for the closed position of the valve as in an installed condition, and a third value (w3) is determined. If the deviation of the third value (w3) from the first value (w1) is too great, and if a diagnosis has been identified as being possible, then the system deduces that the valve leaks.

Described are equipment, a system, a kit and a method for the performance of a minimally-intensive body access, such as cardiac access. Epicardial Access Surgery (EAS) is disclosed.

In addition, various medical devices are used, such as a special partially flexible needle, a special partially covered stent, and a special partially flexible port.

A solid state Quantum high Energy density Storage Or Retrieval device known as a quensor, and the trademark ENSOR(TM), having an energy density of about 1-15 kwhr/kg, comparable to gasoline, or more, is described. A fundamentally new principle is employed: A quensor film comprises oriented molecules with donor and acceptor groups and with metal layers on its surfaces. A dipole electric field may be established in the gap between a donor and an acceptor. Electric energy is stored in or retrieved from dipole electric fields throughout the volume of the quensor film. Electric energy is stored in the quensor film by charging the dipole electric fields from an electric energy source. Electric energy is retrieved from a quensor film by discharging the dipole electric fields and supplying the energy to a load. Electric breakdown in the film is avoided because positive and negative electric charges in the film are balanced everywhere. Busbars attached to the metal layers are connected to terminals for charging or discharging the device. The manufacture of a quensor film is described. A composite photovoltaic and quensor panel for the storage or retrieval of solar-electric energy day or night on demand is also described.
