Granted: 2004-03-15
Abstract: An radially expandable stent-graft and method of making the same, including at least one a stent member encapsulated between at least two longitudinally expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) coverings. The at least one stent member has openings through wall surfaces of the stent to permit radial expansion. The at least two longitudinally expanded ePTFE coverings are circumferentially applied over the at least one stent member in their unsintered state, and sintered during application of a circumferential pressure to bond the ePTFE around and through the wall surfaces of the stent. The sintered ePTFE forms a substantially continuous, monolithic and integral encapsulation of the at least one stent. Upon radial expansion of the stent-graft, the stent and the ePTFE node-fibril microstructure radially deform. Radial deformation of the ePTFE encapsulation results in nodal elongation in the axis of radial expansion. After radial expansion of the stent-graft, a substantial bonded area remains intact and maintains the encapsulation of the stent in vivo.

Title: A device which attaches externally onto circuit breaker switches and mechanically alters the circuit's state by moving the manual lever
Inventor: BLUETT SIMON
IPC: H01H3/00
Filed: 2012-11-22
Abstract: The present invention relates to a circuit control device which attaches onto existing circuit breaker switches, such as the MCB switch. This retrofitting device mechanically moves the external lever, or switching latch, of the circuit breaker to turn on and off the circuit. This device can in turn be connected to a separate controller, enabling the user to create a circuit control system. The advantage of the invention is that it can be used to turn on and off existing circuits in a building without having to interfere with these circuits. Another benefit of retrofitting circuit breakers is that all of the circuit breakers in a building are situated in the building’s distribution box. Therefore all of these circuits can be controlled from the one place. <Figure 3>

Title: Heart valve holder that resists suture looping
Inventor: LAM HUNG LY
IPC: A61F2/24
Filed: 2001-12-13
Granted: 2005-08-25
Abstract: An improved holder, system and method for implanting a tissue-type prosthetic mitral heart valve that prevents suture looping and may also constrict the commissure posts of the valve. The holder may include two relatively movable plates, one of which attaches to the valve sewing on the inflow end of the valve ring and the other which attaches via sutures or similar expedient to the valve commissures on the outflow end. Separation of the plates places the sutures in tension and constricts the commissures. The sutures may be strands or filaments, or may be wider bands of flexible biocompatible material. If bands are used, they desirably cover the commissure post tips to further help prevent suture looping thereover. The flexible lengths of material extend directly between commissures of the valve, or may extending radially inward from each commissure to a central upstanding member. Desirably, a slide is created by the flexible lengths of material adjacent each commissure post, for example by crossing over suture filaments at or radially inward from the commissure posts. If an upstanding member is used, the lengths of suture extend axially beyond the commissure post tips to create a tent that wards off sutures that otherwise might loop around the tips during advancement of the valve along an array of pre-implanted sutures.

IPC: C07H21/04
Filed: 2005-08-26
Granted: 2012-04-26
Abstract: The present invention is directed to novel methods of synthesizing multiple copies of a target nucleic acid sequence which are autocatalytic (., able to cycle automatically without the need to modify reaction conditions such as temperature, pH, or ionic strength and using the product of one cycle in the next one). In particular, the present invention discloses a method of nucleic acid amplification which is robust and efficient, while reducing the appearance of side-products. The method uses only one primer, the "priming oligonucleotide," a 3'blocked promoter oligonucleotide and optionally, a means for terminating a primer extension reaction, to amplify RNA or DNA molecules , while reducing or eliminating the formation of side-products. The method of the present invention minimizes or eliminates the emergence of side-products, thus providing a high level of specificity. Furthermore, the appearance of side-products can complicate the analysis of the amplification reaction by various molecular detection techniques. The present invention minimizes or eliminates this problem, thus providing an enhanced level of sensitivity.
