Abstract: The present invention provides a method of deploying a medical filter within a channel in a patient's body and filter systems which can be used in such a method. Such a filter may include a radially expandable body (52) having an opening (56) in a proximal length thereof. In one method, the filter is urged along a length of the channel with the filter body in a radially reduced configuration. This body is expanded to substantially fill the lumen of the vessel and orient the opening in the body proximally. Body fluid is permitted to enter the filter body through the proximally oriented opening and pass distally through the distal length of the body so that the distal length of the body filters from the body fluid particulate material entrained therein. The proximal length of the body can be drawn into the retrieval catheter, thereby effectively closing the proximally oriented opening within the catheter to retain the particulate material within the enclosure. In a preferred embodiment, the filter body (52) is formed of a porous, resilient fabric having pores therein and the proximal opening (56) is at least five times the size of such pores.

Abstract: Temperature dependent methods can be used to improve the cold start capability of fuel cell electric power generation systems. A method of ceasing operation of an electric power generation system improves the cold start capability and freeze tolerance of a fuel cell stack by reducing the amount of water remaining within the passages of the stack. The method involves purging one or more of the fuel cell stack oxidant and fuel passages at shutdown prior to allowing the fuel cell stack to drop to temperatures below the freezing point of water. Preferably purging at shutdown is conducted at a temperature below the stack operating temperature. Another method, used at start-up, involves directing a coolant fluid stream to the fuel cell stack only after a predetermined temperature above the freezing temperature of water is exceeded. Preferably, after freezing the fuel cell stack is heated to a temperature above its normal operating temperature before operation is commenced.

Abstract: A sensing and drainage catheter (10) for use in a cranial site includes a reduced
diameter connector so that traditional tunneling techniques may be used with the
connector-equipped proximal end of the catheter, rather than the sensor-equipped
distal end of the catheter. The catheter includes a drainage lumen (16) and a signal

sensing the properties of cerebral spinal fluid and means for transmitting data
signals representing those properties in either optical or electrical form to a
reduced diameter connector (28) attached to the proximal end of the lumen. A method
comprises first accurately locating the distal end of the ventricular catheter in the
brain ventricle prior to the catheter being tunneled under the scalp. The
connector end of the catheter is then tunneled or threaded through a subdermal
tunnel, and is then coupled to a counterpart connector for communication of the
sensor signals to a monitor, and the drainage lumen is coupled to a bag for
receiving excess CSF.

Abstract: [Object] 
     To prevent a lateral displacement of a wire resulting from pushing forces from crimping pieces. 
     [Solution] 
     A pair of crimping pieces 17A, 17B extend upward from opposite side edges of a bottom wall 11, and are crimped into connection with a wire placed on the bottom wall 11 W by being wound around the wire W. The pair of crimping pieces 17A, 17B are offset to each other in the longitudinal direction of the wire W. By causing the wire W to engage restricting portions 18A, 18B formed on the bottom wall 11, a lateral displacement of the wire W is restricted against pushing forces acting on the wire W from the crimping pieces 17A, 17B in directions normal to the longitudinal direction of the wire W while the crimping pieces 17A, 17B are being crimped into connection with the wire W.

Abstract: When low intensity light (4) is incident upon a photodiode (2), the output from the
photodiode (2) is coupled to an integrator formed by an operational amplifier (7), a
capacitor (8) and a FET coupled in parallel in a feedback path between an output
(9) of the operational amplifier (7) and its negative input (5). The output (9) of the
operational amplifier (7) is coupled to an input of an A/D converter (21), whose
output is coupled to a microprocessor (22), whose output is coupled to a filter (23).
A second output of the microprocessor (22) is coupled to a gate electrode of FET
10 to provide a reset signal to the FET 10 to reset the integrator. The
microprocessor (22) compares the digital samples of the integrated signal from the
A/D converter and, firstly, generates the reset signal if a sample is beyond a set
limit, and, secondly, calculates delta values between adjacent samples and
interpolates the delta values for the reset periods so as to provide a continuous
data stream which can be filtered by a filter matched to the form of the original
signal.

Abstract: This invention relates to a sump (10) for an internal
combustion engine (50) and a method for draining a
sump. In prior sumps, a drain aperture was commonly
provided in the floor of the sump to provide good
draining characteristics. Where a drain aperture in
the sump floor was not practical, a side wall drain
aperture was used, but with less than desirable
draining characteristics because the drain aperture
was above the sump floor for structural reasons. In
accordance with this invention, the sump floor (20)
has at least one gutter (30). A closable drain
aperture (28) is located such that at least its
lowermost part (29) is located within the gutter
(30). When the drain aperture (28) is opened, oil
within the sump can flow along the gutter (30) and
through the aperture (28). The gutter (30) may form
a support rail (48) to support the weight of an
engine (50) to which the sump is attached.
