Title: Method and circuit for storing and providing historical physiological data
Inventor: DELONZOR RUSSELL L
IPC: A61B5/00
Filed: 2000-03-07
Abstract: A mechanism for storing and providing historical physiological data, such as  blood oxygen saturation data, for a patient. In particular, the historical physiological data is stored in a storage medium that "travels" with the patient and is accessible wherever the patient is moved. This is achieved by  storing the physiological data within a sensor assembly. At the destination site, a monitor or a device capable of interfacing with the sensor electroni cs can retrieve and display the data. The historical physiological data allows a clinician or medical personnel at the destination site to assess the conditi on of the patient for the entire time that the patient has been monitored. Various types of physiological data can be stored including, but not limited  to, blood oxygen saturation, heart rate, and temperature data. Compression o f the data can be performed to enhance the storage capability.

Patent CA-2377883-A1 (CA)
Inventor: LAPOINTE BERNARD
IPC: B01D33/048
Filed: 2002-03-15
Abstract: La séparation de la fraction solide de celle liquide se fait par filtration.  Les procédés industriels de filtration sont habituellement en batch, c'est à dire non continu. Cela occasionne certains inconvénients puisque les pores du filtre finissent par boucher et réduire la capacité de filtration.   Notre système permet donc une filtration en continue efficace de solution comportant une fraction solide plus ou moins importante. L'efficacité provient premièrement du fait que le filtre est toujours propre, c'est-à-dire exempt de fines particules qui bouchent les pores, et deuxièmement de la succion générée par une pression négative à l'intérieur du rouleau perforé.   Notre système de filtration repose sur l'utilisation d'une membrane filtrante spécifique à l'application et auto-nettoyante qui tourne autour d'un rouleau perforé, lequel est équipé d'un dispositif de vacuum. Tandis que les lourdes particules solides se déposent au fond par gravité, les fines particules solides adhèrent à la surface de la membrane par succion pour ensuite être récupérés par râpage. La membrane est ensuite nettoyée par jet d'eau avant de retourner dans la solution à filtrer.

Patent CA-2378810-A1 (CA)
Title: Apparatus and method for adaptive control
Inventor: ZHANG FAN
IPC: G05B13/02
Filed: 2002-03-25
Abstract: An adaptive controller generates a sequence of dither signals for each of a plurality of control parameters. Each dither signal sequence is uncorrelated with every other dither signal sequence. Each nominal control signal has the first of its respective dither signal values simultaneously summed with it to form the control parameter values used by the controller. Updated control signals are applied in parallel to the controller outputs and a performance measure is taken and stored.  The second signals in the dither control sequences are then summed with their respective nominal controls and applied in parallel to the controller and a second performance measure is taken and stored. This process is repeated for the length of the dither control signal sequence to yield a sequence of performance measurements. The sequence of performance measurements is correlated with each of the dither sequences, forming sequences of correlator outputs, one for each control signal. Each correlator output sequence is integrated and, depending upon the value of a correlator's integration output, the corresponding nominal signal has it's dither value added to or subtracted from it to form the respective, updated control values.
