Patent EP-3527155-A1 (EP)
Inventor: AGARWAL ANAND K
IPC: A61B17/70
Filed: 2013-02-19
Abstract: This invention relates to an improved structure for an interspinous stabilization device that more evenly distributes loads throughout the adjacent vertebrae than known interspinous stabilization devices, and further readily compensates for graft settling so as to maintain continued axial loading of the graft. More specifically, this invention relates to a medical device that helps in performing a spinal fusion procedure by holding the bone graft in place and stabilizing the facet screw by a plate that is attached to it. The invention also performs a dynamic function that compensates for settling of the bone graft over time. This dynamic function may, if desired, be enhanced by a movement-limiting mechanism that allows extension but not flexion such that the bone graft fusion remains in contact and fusion takes place.

Abstract: The invention is related to a method for electrically bonding a first semiconductor component (1) to a second semiconductor component (10), both components comprising arrays of contact areas (3,12). Prior to bonding, layers (14) of an intermetallic compound are formed on the contact areas (12) of the second component (10). The roughness of the intermetallic layers is such that the intermetallic layers comprise cavities suitable for insertion of a solder material in the cavities, under the application of a bonding pressure, when the solder is at a temperature below its melting temperature. The method includes the alignment and bonding of the components (1,10), while the solder material is applied between the two. Bonding takes place at a temperature below the melting temperature of the solder. According to the invention, the bond is established only by the insertion of the solder into the cavities of the intermetallic layers (14), and without the formation of a second intermetallic layer.

Abstract: Conventional systems and methods of classifying heart signals include segmenting them which can fail due to the presence of noise, artifacts and other sounds including third heart sound 'S3', fourth heart sound 'S4', and murmur. Heart sounds are inherently prone to interfering noise (ambient, speech, etc.) and motion artifact, which can overlap time location and frequency spectra of murmur in heart sound. Embodiments of the present disclosure provide parallel implementation of Deep Neural Networks (DNN) for classifying heart sound signals (HSS) wherein spatial (presence of different frequencies component) filters from Spectrogram feature(s) of the HSS are learnt by a first DNN while time-varying component of the signals from MFCC features of the HSS are learnt by a second DNN for classifying the heart sound signal as one of normal sound signal or murmur sound signal.
