Title: Measuring properties of an anatomical body
Inventor: HUNTER IAN W
IPC: A61B5/00
Filed: 2003-09-08
Abstract: A medical device includes a sensor that is configured to measure a property of an outer layer of an anatomical body surface. The sensor includes a source probe configured to stimulate a local surface of the outer layer of an anatomical body surface. The sensor also includes a detector configured to measure a response of the outer layer resulting from the source probe stimulation. A controller coupled to the source probe and the sensor drives the source probe using a tailored stochastic sequence and determines the property of the outer layer using the measured response received from the detector. The sensor can be used with medical devices, such as drug delivery devices including microneedle transport devices and needleless injection devices.

Abstract: A method and a deep-drawing apparatus for the deep drawing of a metal sheet by means of a press, a table, a drawing punch, and also a drawing die and a counterpressure plate interacting with the drawing die, which together form a flow path for the metal sheet, wherein at least one drawing strip movable relative to the counterpressure plate is pushed transversely through the flow path of the metal sheet in order to deflect the metal sheet during a drawing phase (first deflection phase) and the drawing strip, for a stop phase, is pushed by a further short distance transversely through the flow path (F) (second deflection stage), wherein a deflection increased once again inhibits the flow of the metal sheet during the second deflection stage, and wherein the metal sheet is essentially plastically formed at the end of the deep-drawing operation, wherein the degree of deflection required during the first deflection stage is set by means of an interchangeable distance piece which is arranged between the counterpressure plate and the drawing strip and serves as a limit stop. Independently thereof, the degree of deflection required during the second deflection stage can be set by further distance elements which are arranged between the table and the drawing strips.

Title: Shoulder replacement
Inventor: BOROWSKY KEITH
IPC: A61F2/40
Filed: 2007-07-30
Abstract: A shoulder replacement prosthesis has a head (12) for replacing the humeral head and a connection shaft (14). The head has a domed portion (16) and a flange (18) positioned at an end region of the domed portion, and the flange (18) has a width (22) which varies around the domed portion, having a greater width at a part corresponding to a region of the greater tuberosity than at a part corresponding to a region of the lesser tuberosity. The flange is provided with a plurality of connection portions (24) for securing the tendons attached to the tuberosities. By dimensioning the flange appropriately, the anatomical positioning of the tendon to bone connections can be more accurately replicated. In particular, the flange acts to bridge the so-called bare area of the humeral head. The flange (18) provides a firm immovable surface area to which connections can be made, for example by partridge bands of greater surface area and rigidity than conventional sutures. Bands may also pass to a clamp so that a plastic cage surrounds the tuberosities.
