Title: Method of cleaning inside of pressure vessel for blasting
Inventor: ISHIYAMA KEIICHI
IPC: F42B33/06
Filed: 2007-04-26
Abstract: A method of cleaning the inside of a pressure vessel for blasting. The method enables a treatment to be conducted in a short time regardless of the state of residual substances. This cleaning method, after a blasting step in which an object to be blasted and an explosive for blasting are set in a pressure vessel and the object is then blasted, comprises: a step in which an explosive for cleaning which is different from the explosive used for the object to be blasted is set in an inner part of the pressure vessel in an amount necessary for decomposing the residue of the object; and a step in which the explosive for cleaning is exploded in the pressure vessel to thereby decompose the residue in the pressure vessel.
Patent CA-2651000-A1 (CA)
Inventor: STERN DAVID
IPC: A61B5/00
Filed: 2007-05-04
Abstract: A method and apparatus for determining cardiac parameters within the body of a patient includes a wireless sensor positioned in the patient's pulmonary artery. An external RF telemetry device communicates wirelessly with the sensor and interrogates the sensor to determine changes in pressure in the pulmonary artery over time. The peak pressure difference is determined. Then, assuming zero blood flow velocity at the time of valve opening and at the time of valve closing, a velocity-time function is determined. The velocity-time function is used to determine a velocity-time integral. The velocity-time integral is then used to determine cardiac stroke volume. The cardiac stroke volume is multiplied times the heartbeat rate to determine cardiac output. The cardiac output can be monitored over time to determine continuous cardiac output.
