Title: Orthotic device for abduction
Inventor: FRAUENBERGER KARL-ANDREAS
IPC: A61F5/01
Filed: 1997-08-21
Granted: 2000-11-02
Abstract: This invention concerns a orthotic device for abduction for persons affected by spasticity for placing between the knees and/or feet of patients. Viewed from above, this orthotic device consists of an approximately H-shaped structure with a central element (4), the length of which can be adjusted, with cross-pieces (6 and 8) which can be movably attached by means of articulations (3, 5) at both ends of the central element (4). The length of the cross-pieces (6 and 8) can also be adjusted and serve to support the knees and/or feet. The cross-pieces (6 and 8) have support         elements (7, 9) movably mounted by means of articulations (11, 13 and 15, 17), which are provided with cushions in the form of foam, gel, or air pillows. The support elements can be constructed as unitary rectilinear pieces or as unitary angular pieces. Preferably these support elements (9) consist of parts (88, 90) which are connected to one another and to the cross-piece (8) in a pivoting or articulated fashion. It is possible to regulate the two support elements with respect to one another in a position which is rectilinear or angular to any degree to improve the wearing comfort for a wide array of different lying and sitting positions of the person affected by spasticity. The orthotic device for abduction is simple and economical to construct and simple and secure to install, and can be utilized in a wide variety of situations.

Title: An improved method and composition
Inventor: THULIN ROBERT RAYMOND
IPC: A21D13/08
Filed: 1985-11-07
Granted: 1989-03-02
Abstract: Cookies having an extended shelf-stable soft or chewy texture throughout the cookie are prepared by coextruding an inner adherent cookie dough bakeable to a soft or chewy texture and an outer non-adherent cookie dough bakeable to a soft or chewy texture. The inner dough comprises a liquid humectant in an amount sufficient to impart a shelf-stable soft or chewy texture to the baked outer cookie dough in excess of that attainable by baking the outer dough alone to a shelf-stable soft or chewy texture of the same moisture content. The coextrudate is severed into pieces to enrobe the inner cookie dough and the pieces are baked to a moisture content of at least about 6% by weight of the cookie. The outer non-adherent cookie dough, while being bakeable to a soft chewy texture, possesses sufficient cohesiveness and firmness so as to render the coextrudate formable into cookie dough pieces on a mass scale. The use of the non-adherent cookie dough to enrobe the adherent filler dough avoids sticking of the inner adherent cookie dough to oven bands and cookie dough cutting equipment.

Title: Phase shift colloids as ultrasound contrast agents
Inventor: QUAY STEVEN CARL
IPC: A61K9/127
Filed: 1994-01-19
Granted: 1997-08-07
Abstract: Agents for enhancing the contrast in a diagnostic ultrasound procedure comprise colloidal dispersions of the liquid-in-liquid type, i.e., emulsions or microemulsions, in which the dispersed liquid phase is a liquid having a boiling point below the temperature of the animal to be imaged and which therefore undergoes a phase change from a dispersed liquid to a highly echogenic dispersed gaseous foam or kugelschaum following administration to the animal. The liquid state of the dispersed phase allows one to manufacture extremely stable, pharmaceutically acceptable emulsions with particle sizes typically below 1000 nm. The gaseous state at body temperature yields highly echogenic microbubbles, typically below 10,000 nm in diameter, which are effective as ultrasound contrast agents. Intravenous, intraarterial, oral, intraperitoneal, and intrauterine dosage forms, methods of administration, and imaging techniques are described.
