Title: Cardiac modulation facilitation methods and systems
Inventor: WALDHAUSER STEVEN L
IPC: A61N1/365
Filed: 2016-01-04
Abstract: A method of facilitating therapeutic neuromodulation of a heart of a patient includes positioning an electrode in a pulmonary artery, positioning a sensor in vasculature, delivering via a stimulation system first and second electrical signals of a series of electrical signals to the electrode. The second electrical signal differs from the first electrical signal by a magnitude of a first parameter of a plurality of parameters. The method includes determining, via the sensor, sensor data indicative of one or more heart activity properties in response to the delivery of the series of electrical signals, and delivering a therapeutic neuromodulation signal to the pulmonary artery using selected electrical parameters. The selected electrical parameters include a selected magnitude of the first parameter. The selected magnitude of the first parameter is based at least partially on the sensor data. The therapeutic neuromodulation signal increases heart contractility.

Abstract: The invention relates to a cooling system and a pressure cascade for cooling at least one electronic unit in a combat vehicle (20). The cooling system is used for air conditioning different zones in the combat vehicle (20) and/or for cooling the electronic units. Cooled air is supplied to an installation space (25) from the cooling system by a hose system (22) in order to cool the electronic units, said installation space being equipped with the electronic unit to be cooled. In this manner, an overpressure is produced in the installation space (25). An underpressure is produced by the cooling system (10) in the chamber of the cooling installation (10) of the cooling system. By using an opening from the installation space (25) to the chamber of the cooling installation (10), the pressure difference between the installation space (25) and the chamber of the cooling installation (10) is then utilized to transport the air from the installation space (25) into the chamber of the cooling installation (10) and thus generate a pressure cascade.

Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to a method for humanely slaughtering animals, and more particularly to a method for slaughtering animals using a low atmospheric pressure system with or without the addition of inert gas. In particular, the animals are placed into a chamber, the chamber is sealed, and the pressure in the chamber is reduced along a predetermined pressure curve to a target decompression pressure, and maintained at the decompression pressure for a period of time until the animal achieves a state of death. The low atmospheric pressure slaughter is more humane than traditional slaughter techniques, and results in excellent meat quality.
