Abstract: A mesh delivery system (2) for sacral colpopexy procedures is disclosed. The system (2) uses a mesh stabilizer (30), an endoscopic introducer (2) that carries the mesh stabilizer (30) into the abdomen, and a vaginal probe (10) (inserted through the vagina) with a head that interfaces with the mesh stabilizer (30) in lock-and-key fashion. The mesh stabilizer (30) delivers mesh straps for sacral colpopexy into the abdomen. After delivery, the stabilizer (30) interfaces with the probe (10) head and locks the mesh stabilizer (30) with mesh straps in place. The endoscopic introducer (20) can then be temporarily detached and removed to facilitate suturing of the mesh to the anterior and posterior vaginal walls. After permanent suturing, the introducer (20) can be reinserted and used to retrieve the mesh stabilizer (30) component.

IPC: H02H3/48
Filed: 2007-12-13
Abstract: This invention relates to a method of determining out of step condition and an instance of separation within electrical power system. The method does not require user settings and ensures reliable discrimination between recoverable power swing and pole slips that indicates non-recoverable power swing and the need for system separation. The method also allows tripping at a user selected system angle if desired. This calculated angle is then used to determine the magnitude of the swing current to control the tripping at the desired angle when the system could be safely split after detection of out of step condition based on the criteria of this invention.
Patent CA-2711997-A1 (CA)
Inventor: CHIN TOM
IPC: H04W52/02
Filed: 2009-01-30
Abstract: Techniques presented herein allow connections with different (albeit possibly similar) scheduling or data delivery services to be aggregated (or 'bundled') into groups, with each group assigned a common Power Savings Class Type. Bundling different connections into common PSC types may reduce the overall number of different sleep windows for active connections, which may help reduce overall power consumption. For example, by automatically activating different PSC types (for different bundles of connections), the reduced number of sleep windows may overlap in a manner that results in the MS spending more overall time in a low power state than when conventional 'unbundled' PSC  schemes are utilized.
