Title: Apparatus and method for treating glaucoma
Inventor: BERGHEIM OLAV B
IPC: A61M5/00
Filed: 2001-03-08
Abstract: Surgical methods and related medical devices for treating glaucoma are disclosed. The method comprises trabecular bypass surgery, which involve bypassing diseased trabecular meshwork with the use of a seton implant. The seton implant is used to prevent a healing process known as filling in, which has a tendency to close surgically created openings in the trabecular meshwork. The surgical method and novel implant are addressed to the trabecular meshwork, which is a major site of resistance to outflow in glaucoma. In addition to bypassing the diseased trabecular meshwork at the level of the trabecular meshwork, existing outflow pathways are also used or restored. The seton implant is positioned through the trabecular meshwork so that an inlet end of the seton implant is exposed to the anterior chamber of the eye and an outlet end is positioned into fluid collection channels at about an exterior surface of the trabecular meshwork or up to the level of acqueous veins.

Title: Method, anchoring member and tensioning device for tensioning a rod
Inventor: ISLER ERWIN
IPC: E21D21/00
Filed: 1990-02-02
Abstract: A nut 15 for clamping a tie rod securing a rock has a tubular nut body 25 with a buttress thread 28. The nut body is subdivided into segments 31 by several elongated slots 30. The segments are connected by elastic ribs 26 whose cross-section is U shaped. On one end of the face the nut has a convex spherical end flange 17 which rests against an anchor plate 19. The slots extend through the flange as far as the inner wall of the ribs. Between the ribs the flange has radial notches 37, which extend as far as the nut body. In this manner the segments 31 are tangentially flexible. To clamp the tie rod, the nut is slid axially on the buttress thread of the rod. A clamping device with jaws reaches into the thread of the rod at its free end, and rests against the nut 15. When the tie rod is pulled with the jaws, the nut 15 is simultaneously forced against the anchor plate. Thus, a fast and accurate preliminary clamping of the tie rod is achieved.
