Inventor: KUDARAVALLI RAVIKUMAR
IPC: A61B18/02
Filed: 2003-09-12
Abstract: A catheter-based system for performing a cryoablation procedure uses a precooler to lower the temperature of a fluid refrigerant to a sub-cool temperature (-40°C) at a working pressure (400 psi). The sub-cooled fluid is then introduced into a supply line of the catheter. Upon outflow of the primary fluid from the supply line, and into a tip section of the catheter, the fluid refrigerant boils at an outflow pressure of approximately one atmosphere, at a temperature of about -88°C. In operation, the working pressure is computer controlled to obtain an appropriate outflow pressure for the coldest possible temperature in the tip section.

Title: Technique for assisting a user with information services at an information/call center
Inventor: TIMMINS TIMOTHY A
IPC: H04M3/533
Filed: 2003-11-17
Abstract: The present invention is directed to using an information assistance service to send a message to a desired destination, e.g., an e-mail address, or other addresses associated with wireless telephones, pagers, SMSs, PDAs, PIM systems, etc. The message may include multimedia information, e.g., audio, video and/or text information. The information assistance service provider obtains "message overhead" data, as opposed to message content or body, from the caller or from external or internal databases such as the caller's contacts folders (also known as private directories) and user profiles. Such message overhead data may include "envelope" information such as the destination address (e.g., e-mail address) to which the message is to be delivered, destination name, sender's name and return address (e.g., return e-mail address). The data may also include a carbon copy (CC) address(es), a subject line, a signature, and/or notes for attachment to the message body, as well as a message ID for keeping track of the message. The message overhead data are entered automatically into the data fields based on one or more criteria such as the data used in the previous message or the data used most frequently. If the correct data are not available automatically, the operator may type the data in using auto completion. The information assistance service provider transmits the message overhead data to a message server, and connects the caller to the message server to record the message content to complete the message. The message server then integrates the received message overhead data with the recorded message content, and sends the resulting message to the desired destination. Using the message ID, the recipient may send a reply to the sender via the information assistance service provider. The reply, which includes reply overhead data and reply message content, may be in the form of a telephone call or an electronic reply or a combination of the two. The messaging feature of the present invention may be offered to a caller who attempted a call but for some reason the call was incomplete and the caller is returned to the information assistance service provider for more assistance.

Abstract: A movable barrier operator (10) can have at least two automatic modes of operation. These modes of operation can differ from one another at least with respect to their respective utilized maximum-applied-force thresholds, such that one of the modes of operation correlates to a reduced maximum-applied-force threshold. Selection between these available maximum-applied-force thresholds can be based, at least in part, upon whether an obstacle detector is operably coupled to the movable barrier operator. In one embodiment, a primary controller (30) and a secondary controller (31) can be utilized to effect the controlled selection and usage of the available maximum-applied-force thresholds. In another embodiment, maximum permitted speed of travel for the movable barrier can also be determined, at least in part, as a function of whether an obstacle detector is available to the movable barrier operator.
