Title: An electrosurgical instrument and an electosurgery system including such an instrument
IPC: A61B18/14
Filed: 2000-02-08
Abstract: In an electrosurgical system which is operable within the frequency range of from 100kHz to 50 MHz and which has a handheld instrument with an elongate instrument shaft, the distal end of the shaft carries a bipolar electrode assembly for use in a conductive fluid field. The electrode assembly has an active electrode and, set back from the active electrode, a return electrode coated with an insulative dielectric layer. The insulative layer may be made of a plastics or a ceramic material and acts as the dielectric of a capacitor when the electrode assembly is immersed in the conductive fluid. One of the effects of the insulative layer is to provide a more uniformly distributed electric field over the return electrode than is obtained with an exposed return electrode, yielding improved tissue desiccation and vaporisation characteristics. The active electrode may have a similar dielectric covering.

Title: Shoulder replacement
Filed: 2006-08-14
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.

Patent GB-8323111-D0 (GB)
Title: Editing and replay of digital audio data
IPC: G11B27/28
Filed: 1983-08-26
Abstract: In producing an edited tape (31) the lead-in material up to a first edit point is separated from the lead-out material running from a second edit point by a space containing unwanted material and accommodating the actual or notional splice. The unwanted material ensures correct operation of error protection for all of the wanted material on replay. The first and second edit points are marked by codes placed on the tape (31) by a code processor (43) and supplementary head (42). During replay the digital data recovered from the tape by a head (32) is entered into a random access buffer store (34) under control of a write address generator (38) and read out to output electronics (37) under control of a read address generator (39) running at the audio sampling rate. The write address generator (38) normally runs at a rate corresponding to tape speed but the code processor detects the codes for first and second edit points and a control unit (51) stops the write address generator (38) between such points so as to discard the unwanted material. The store is then replenished by speeding up the tape by a comparator (40) and speed control unit (10) in an arrangement which preserves a constant relationship between the read and write addresses, i.e. a constant degree of filling of the memory (34).
