Inventor: BOTTOMLEY PAUL
IPC: A61M21/00
Filed: 2005-09-21
Abstract: Use of stimuli in order to provide association with a training regime or other behaviour modification technique is known. With regard to olfactory stimulation it will be appreciated that it is necessary that the olfactory is actively provided in the sense that it is not a continuous stimulation but provided in pulses for regular association. Without such distinct presentation of the olfactory stimulus a user may become desensitised. In order to achieve this the present olfactory stimulator comprises a regulator and specific delivery techniques such as the use of a fan or piston to direct the olfactory towards the user's nose.

IPC: A61F2/06
Filed: 2007-08-07
Abstract: An endoluminal prosthesis useful for treatment of an abdominal aortic aneurysm includes a main body portion and two leg portions. The main body portion includes a graft material coupled to stents. The stents include an upper supra renal stent and sealing stents. The sealing length between the top of the graft material and the bottom of the uppermost sealing stent is minimized while avoiding stent overlap or otherwise compromising the crimped profile by connecting the apexes of the supra renal and sealing stents with a tether that is free to slide within the apexes. In addition, a pleat is provided at the top of the graft material at the attachment of the suprarenal and upper sealing stents to improve sealing. The tether and pleat also redistribute the downward force from blood flow to minimize the force carried by the attachment sites between the stent and graft.

Patent CA-2601876-A1 (CA)
Title: Compositions and use of mono-and polyenoic acids for breaking ves-gelled fluids
Inventor: CREWS JAMES B
IPC: E21B43/267
Filed: 2006-03-16
Abstract: Fluids viscosified with viscoelastic surfactants (VESs) may have their viscosities reduced (gels broken) by the direct or indirect action of a composition that contains at least one unsaturated fatty acid, such as a monoenoic acid and/ or polyenoic acid. The unsaturated fatty acid may be contained in an oil-soluble internal phase of the fluid. The breaking composition is believed to act possibly by rearranging, disaggregating or otherwise attacking the micellar structure of the VES-gelled fluid. In a specific, non-limiting instance, a brine fluid gelled with an amine oxide surfactant can have its viscosity broken with an oil such as flax (linseed) oil, soybean oil and/or fish oils containing relatively high amounts of unsaturated fatty acids. The unsaturated fatty acids are thought to auto-oxidize into products such as aldehydes, ketones and saturated fatty acids that break the VES gel.
