Title: Nomogram computation and application system and method for refractive laser surgery
Inventor: PETTIT GEORGE H
IPC: A61B3/103
Filed: 2008-06-02
Granted: 2013-04-04
Abstract: A method for optimizing a prescription for laser-ablation corneal treatment includes receiving a measured correction prescription for a current patient. Next a database of treatment outcomes on a plurality of previously treated patients is accessed. The database contains a desired correction, and an actual correction. A difference between the desired correction and the actual correction represents an over- or undercorrection resulting from surgery. From the difference data is calculated a distribution of data points as a function of correction level. From the data-point distribution is calculated a statistically based offset applicable to the correction prescription for matching actual corrections with desired corrections. From the data-point distribution is calculated a confidence interval of the data using a predetermined confidence level. The statistically based offset is then adjusted based upon the confidence interval to provide an optimized prescription. The adjusted offset is then output for use in performing a refractive procedure.

Title: Injection device with locking mechanism for syringe carrier
Inventor: JENNINGS DOUGLAS IVAN
IPC: A61M5/32
Filed: 2008-07-28
Granted: 2013-04-18
Abstract: An injection device comprises a locking mechanism (171-173) between a syringe carrier (127) and an end cap (111) of the injection device.

Granted: 2016-05-19
Abstract: A wave energy converter (WEC) includes a float tending to move in phase with the waves, a spar tending to move out of phase with the float and power take off device (PTO) coupled between the float and spar for converting their relative motion into useful energy. The PTO includes a rack and pinion mechanism which drives a high-torque, multi-pole, permanent magnet generator (PMG) to produce electrical signals of relatively high frequency relative to the frequency of the waves and the basic motion of the rack and pinion mechanism. In accordance with one aspect of the invention, the rack and pinion mechanism may be located within the spar which may be hermetically sealed by a sealing mechanis'm which allows a thrust rod coupled between the float and spar to move up and down with little friction to ensure efficient operation. In addition, a braking arrangement is provided for inhibiting relative motion between the float and spar during extreme severe wave conditions. In this way, the pinion gears and generators need only be sized for the operational wave conditions.
