Abstract: An assembly and method for effecting the condition of a mitral valve annulus of a heart includes a guide wire configured to be fed into the coronary sinus of the heart, and a mitral valve annulus therapy device configured to be slidingly received on the guide wire and advanced into the coronary sinus of the heart on the guide wire. A guide tube may further be employed for guiding the device into the coronary sinus. An introducer which may be employed for pushing the device into or pulling device out of the heart has a mechanism for releasably locking to the device. This enables substitution of the device if needed. Also, the crossover point of the circumflex artery and coronary sinus may be determined and avoided when the device is deployed.

Title: Ameliorations portant sur des defibrillateurs portables
Inventor: HERBERT KEVIN
IPC: A61N1/39
Filed: 2002-11-28
Abstract: L'invention concerne un défibrillateur portable qui comprend un circuit d'autovérification (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 8 & 9) dans lequel, pendant l'autovérification, l'énergie électrique est libérée d'un condensateur ou d'une banque de condensateurs (4) dans un circuit récepteur de charges (5, 8) qui recycle l'énergie dans une batterie rechargeable (1) afin de prolonger la charge originale dans la batterie. Un autre mode de réalisation de l'invention comprend un circuit récepteur de charges (I1-I4, S1-S3, 21) contenant une résistance (21) à valeur ohmique relativement élevée et à faible dissipation de sorte que la libération se produit pendant une période relativement longue, ce qui permet de faire l'économie d'un dissipateur thermique. Ladite résistance peut se présenter sous la forme d'une seule résistance de valeur élevée ou comporter un réseau (21a) d'au moins deux résistances de valeur moins importante. L'invention concerne également une commutation optionnelle (5, I1-I4, S1-S3, 21) de l'énergie électrique libérée pendant une autovérification, soit pour la recycler dans la batterie rechargeable, soit pour la libérer au moyen de la résistance. Un perfectionnement supplémentaire prévoit que l'autovérification soit effectuée sur une banque de condensateurs (4) par un système de rotation, ce qui peut également supposer que l'énergie libérée par un condensateur le soit dans le condensateur qui occupe la place suivante dans la banque, de sorte que tous les condensateurs soient chargés et déchargés à partir de sensiblement une seule arrivée de puissance.

IPC: F16H59/02
Filed: 2003-06-27
Abstract: In a select system (14) for an automatic transmission in which
switchover between a mechanical automatic mode and an electrical
manual mode is achieved by a lateral shift of a select lever (15),
the select lever has an engaging protrusion (67) extending a distance
to one side, which remains inserted in an engaging groove (68) opened
in a rotatable linkage member (18). When the select lever (15) is in the
automatic mode, the linkage member (18) is rotatable with the lever
operation by engagement between the engaging protrusion and a part
(78) of the engaging groove so as to achieve mechanical transmission
control of the automatic transmission. When the select lever (15) is
in the manual mode, the engaging protrusion, while disengaging from
the part (78) of the engaging groove, restricts rotation of the linkage
member (18) so as to prevent the mechanical transmission control. Thus,
the select system can prevent an accidental release of the select
lever from a gear position or an unexpected shift change of the
automatic transmission, whether it is in the A/T mode or manual
mode.

Title: Shape lockable apparatus and method for advancing an instrument through unsupported anatomy
Inventor: EWERS RICHARD C
IPC: A61B1/01
Filed: 2003-06-13
Abstract: Apparatus and methods are provided for placing and advancing a diagnostic or therapeutic instrument in a hollow body organ of a tortuous or unsupported anatomy, comprising a handle, an overtube disposed within a hydrophilic sheath, and a distal region having an atraumatic tip. The overtube may be removable from the handle, and have a longitudinal axis disposed at an angle relative to the handle. The sheath may be disposable to permit reuse of the overtube. Fail-safe tensioning mechanisms may be provided to selectively stiffen the overtube to reduce distension of the organ caused by advancement of the diagnostic or therapeutic instrument. The fail-safe tensioning mechanisms reduce the risk of reconfiguration of the overtube in the event that the tension system fails, and, in one embodiment, rigidizes the overtube without substantial proximal movement of the distal region. The distal region permits passive steering of the overtube caused by deflection of the diagnostic or therapeutic instrument, while the atraumatic tip prevents the wall of the organ from becoming caught or pinched during manipulation of the diagnostic or therapeutic instrument.

Abstract: Displaying a subject image on a browser in accordance with the aspect ratio of the subject image, with reduced scan line interference at a time exposure, as well as transmitting a high-quality image with easy compression processing. A server according to the invention compresses, in a predetermined operating state, only a image signal in either a first or second field and transmits the resulting signal to a browser in a network terminal. This reduces scan line interference thus upgrading for example the picture quality obtained at a time exposure. In response to an access from the browser in the network terminal, the server transmits to the browser the information containing link information for image data and an image information display size instruction described in a markup language so as to match the aspect ratio of the displayed image with that of the subject image.
