Patent EP-0360412-A1 (EP)
Inventor: HALUSKA EDWARD A
IPC: A61N1/362
Filed: 1989-08-17
Abstract: A method for detecting and treating ventricular tachyrhythmias of a patient's heart includes the steps of selectively dividing the heart rate continuum into regions including at least two classes of tachycardia, contiguous to each other and of progressively higher heart rate ranges, the lowest and highest of the tachycardia classes being bounded respectively by a sinus rate region and a fibrillation region of the continuum; selectively adjusting the boundaries between the tachycardia classes and between the lowest and highest of those classes and the respective sinus rate and fibrillation regions, to correspondingly adjust the rate ranges of the classes; selectively detecting cardiac events anywhere within the continuum and distinguishing between normal and abnormal tachycardias among the detected events; selectively treating a detected abnormal tachycardia with any of a multiplicity of therapy regimens of differing degrees of aggressiveness, toward terminating the detected tachycardia; with the improvement of preventing, during selectively detecting cardiac events, the classification of a ventricular response to atrial fibrillation as a reentrant ventricular tachycardia. The invention also includes a system for application of the method.

Inventor: REMINE WALTER J C O MINNESOTA
IPC: G08B13/00
Filed: 1989-09-14
Abstract: Markers in different portions (61, 62) of the interrogation zone (60) of an electromagnetic article surveillance system produce signals (72, 73) with waveforms of different character. In one embodiment, a false alarm minimization method determines the character of the waveform of the signal induced in the detection antenna. A requirement that signals with waveforms of different character be sensed provides greater confidence that the marker is passing through, as opposed to being near one portion of, the interrogation zone. Also, false alarms produced by stationary objects such as metallic door and window frames are eliminated. In another embodiment, the direction in which the marker passes through the interrogation zone is determined.

Abstract: Apparatus for automatically adjusting the distance of a printing he ad (1) form a printing support (8) wherein motor means (19) enable to change, on command, the print head distance from the support (8) and a movable armature/plunger electromagnetic detector (9), steady with the printing head (1) is energized, when the print head (1) is moved far from the printing support (8), so as to perform the cocking of the armature/plunger and is thereafter maintained in energized status by a minimal current for holding the electromagnet in cocked state, so that a subsequent movement of the print head (1) towards the printing support (8), owing to the interference with the printing support (8) of an actuation element (18) coupled to the armature/plunger, causes the armature/plunger release and a reluctance change, hence an e.m.f. induced in the energization winding which is detected by a comparator circuit (10) and signalled to a control logic as indication that the print head (1) is at a predetermined distance from the printing support (8).

Abstract: The upper shaft part (16) can be pivoted on the lower shaft part (12) about the axis (20) from a standing position running approximately at right angles to the sole (14) into a forwardly inclined rest position which corresponds to the moving position. This pivoting movement of the upper shaft part (16) with the ski boot closed is transmitted by the actuation lever (82) to transmission members (86) which are displaceable in the longitudinal direction of the boot. The movement of the transmission members (86) towards the heel element (98) is converted into a forward sliding of the tensioning member (90). In this connection, the active part loops (106, 108) of the tensioning element (102), which is guided around the tensioning member (90), are shortened. With the upper shaft part (16) in the rest position, the foot is consequently secured by the holding element (96) and the heel cap (100). With the upper shaft part (16) pivoted back into the standing position, the foot is free inside the ski boot.

Abstract: A process for the production of gelatin from fish skins comprises the steps of: (a) cleaning the skins in order to remove therefrom substantially all superfluous material; (b) treating with dilute aqueous alkali; (c) washing with water until the washing water is substantially neutral; (d) treating with dilute aqueous mineral acid; (e) washing with water until the washing water is substantially neutral; (f) treating with dilute aqueous citric acid and/or another suitable organic acid; (g) washing with water until the washing water is substantially neutral; and (h) extracting with water at elevated temperatures not above about 55 o C, the washed citric/other organic acid-­treated skins. In practice, the present process employs much lower temperatures than known heretofore for the treatment steps, which results in a high quality product (e.g. absence of a fishy smell), compared with the prior art.

Abstract: An improved method of patterning a conductive interconnect on a semiconductor element is disclosed. A catalytic layer of, for example, amorphous silicon is deposited on a semiconductor element. The areas over which a conductive pattern is to be formed is activated by directing a focused laser beam onto the amorphous silicon. The laser beam heats the amorphous silicon to form crystallized silicon. The amorphous silicon is then etched away after which a conductive material such as a metal is deposited on the activated crystallized silicon.
