Title: Procede servant a prolonger le temps de sejour vasculaire d'agents therapeutiques et diagnostiques particulaires
Inventor: LONG DAVID M JR
IPC: A61K47/48
Filed: 1992-11-12
Abstract: La présente invention se rapporte à une composition permettant d'augmenter le temps de séjour vasculaire d'un agent thérapeutique ou diagnostique particulaire dans un mammifère, par l'intermédiaire de l'administration conjointe d'une dose efficace de l'agent thérapeutique et diagnostique particulaire, et d'une dose efficace d'un agent améliorant le temps de séjour vasculaire. Les agents diagnostiques et thérapeutiques appropriés comprennent ceux dont l'efficacité dans le corps est déterminée par leur aptitude à demeurer dans le compartiment vasculaire ou d'y être portés. En conséquence, ce procédé peut être aisément adapté au traitement de nombreuses affections et de nombreux troubles, y compris l'hypoxie, l'hypoxémie, l'anémie et le cancer, ainsi qu'à l'imagerie de zones choisies du corps d'un mammifère selon différentes techniques d'imagerie, y compris l'imagerie par ultrasons, par rayons X et par RMI.

Abstract: Améliorations relatives à un appareil et à des techniques d'activation d'un dispositif médical implantable (10), tel qu'un neurostimulateur adapté pour traiter et maîtriser un trouble chez un patient (30), ledit trouble pouvant être apaisé en réponse à la modulation prédéterminée de l'activité électrique d'un nerf sélectionné (25) ou groupe de nerfs du patient. Le neurostimulateur (10) comprend un générateur de stimuli réagissant, lorsqu'il est activé, pour générer une forme d'onde électrique programmable, ainsi qu'un réseau d'électrodes relié électriquement au générateur de stimuli pour appliquer la forme d'onde à un nerf sélectionné du patient, tel que le nerf vague. Le neurostimulateur est également adapté pour être programmé afin de fournir la forme d'onde avec des valeurs de paramètres sélectionnées pour stimuler le nerf choisi, afin de produire la modulation prédéterminée de l'activité électrique du nerf. Le neurostimulateur est mis en oeuvre pour réagir à un signal déclenché par le patient, lequel peut être dérivé soit manuellement soit automatiquement afin d'activer sélectivement le générateur de stimuli.

Abstract: In order to process yarn preliminarily, and to change over precisely at a desired knitting position, the yarn (12) fed to the flat knitting machine (10) is processed by a yarn processing device (18) and is changed over in character such as color. To change over the yarn (12) at the changeover position D on the fabric (11), it is necessary to actuate the yarn processing device (18) preliminarily at the actuating position C. The controller (21) calculates the actuating position C from the set value in the setting circuit (22) and pattern information from the memory (23), and when the encoder (16) detects that the yarn feeding position to the knitting needle has reached the actuating position C, the yarn processing device (18) is actuated. The length of the yarn from the yarn processing position A to the actuating position C is nearly equal to the sum S of the loop length for knitting from the actuating position C to the changeover position D.

Abstract: A system for termite detection and control is provided by a subterranean bait station having a perforated outer housing permanently implanted in the terrain below ground level, and a perforated cartridge removably received within the housing. The openings in the housing and the cartridge are in alignment with each other when the cartridge is fully received within the housing in its operational position. The cartridge received within the housing will initially contain a non-toxic bait material for diagnosing or assessing the level of a termite infestation; the bait cartridge is periodically removed from the housing to inspect for termite activity. If termite activity is detected, the non-toxic bait cartridge is replaced in the housing with a correspondingly perforated pesticide-containing bait cartridge for extermination of termites. Removal, replacement and substitution of the non-toxic and pesticide containing cartridges does not disturb pre-existing termite foraging galleries as a result of the precise alignment of the openings of the housing and the removable, exchangeable cartridges. The system may also be used for above-ground termite detection and control by externally mounting an appropriately modified housing to an outer surface of any article to be monitored, such as a timber.

Abstract: This invention relates to an antenna which is capable of cancelling long field noise. The antenna is split in to an even number of portions, for example 2, 4, 6, etc., and half of the portions are phase rotated, typically by 180° relative to the other halves of the portions. The long field noise intercepted by the antenna is essentially cancelled by the antenna arrangement. In addition the signal to noise ratio is dramatically improved when compared with that of the prior cut antennae.

Abstract: A block copolymer of generally an AB, ABA, or A(BA) n  structure, or mixtures thereof where the A block is an unsaturated polyester, the B block is a flexible polymer having a Tg of 0 o C or lower, and n is 2 to 5. The various block components are generally first separately prepared as polymers with the flexible polymer generally having 1 or 2 functional end groups such as an amine group, a carboxyl group, or a hydroxyl group with the later being preferred. Alternatively, for low molecular weight unsaturated polyester blocks, the block can be made  in situ . The preferred reaction route is to react a mono or dihydroxy terminated flexible polymer with a diisocyanate which subsequently can be readily reacted with the polyester. The block copolymers can be utilized as toughening agents. They furthermore can be utilized to coat a fiber structure such as individual fibers, a woven structure, or a nonwoven structure such as mats, rovings, bundles, and the like, with the coated fiber structures subsequently incorporated into a polymeric matrix such as polyester.

Abstract: A method and apparatus are described for reducing the distortion of image signals captured by an asynchronous scanning system during a transient period (Fig. 3) caused by temporarily disabling the scanning operation. During normal operation, the asynchronous scanning system (Fig. 1) drives a document to be scanned relative to a scanning array (36) which produces image signals representative of the document. Subsequently, the signals are transmitted to a host through an interface at a rate which may exceed the reception rate of the host, the asynchronous operation of the scanning system being regulated by start and stop signals which, respectively, enable and disable the scanning operation. The method used for reducing the image signal distortion during the transient period includes storing the image signals for the scanline (242) acquired by the scanning array prior to disabling the scanning operation and storing at least one scanline of image signals for the scanlines (214) acquired by the scanning array subsequent to restarting the scanning operation. Subsequently, the stored image signals are interpolated to generate additional scanlines (212,246) of corrected image signals to replace those scanlines lost or those distorted while the scanning system was operating in the transient state.

Abstract: An instrument (10) for cauterizing blood vessels while performing an endoscopic procedure includes a rigid outer tube (11) with a proximal end (15), a distal end (14) and an inner, semi-rigid, tube (12) passing through the outer tube (11) from its proximal end (15) to its distal end (14). The inner tube (12) has at least one lumen (23) allowing passage of a pair of conductive leads (13) therethrough. The leads (13) terminate at the distal end (16) of the tube (12) in a pair of forceps jaws (26). The leads (13) are mechanically connected to a scissors-style handle (1) and are electrically connected to an RF generator. The outside diameter of the outer tubular body (11) is sufficiently small that it can readily pass through the working lumen of an endoscope. Associated with the handle (1) is a knob (3) for rotating the inner tube (12) and the conductive leads (13). The handle (1) also contains a means for effecting translational motion of the inner tube (12) within the outer tube (11) and over the forceps (26) and a means for introducing a preset gap to prevent complete closure of the forceps' jaws (26).
