Patent CA-2900607-A1 (CA)
Inventor: CARPENTER SCOTT E
IPC: G01N27/327
Filed: 2014-03-13
Abstract: Methods are disclosed for measuring an analyte concentration in a fluidic sample. Such methods allow one to correct and/or compensate for confounding variables such as hematocrit, salt concentration and/or temperature before providing an analyte concentration. The measurement methods use response information from a test sequence having at least one DC block, where DC block includes at least one excitation pulse and at least one recovery pulse, and where a closed circuit condition of an electrode system is maintained during the at least one recovery pulse. Information encoded in the excitation and recovery pulses are used to build within- and across-pulse descriptors to correct/compensate for hematocrit, salt concentration and/or temperature effects on the analyte concentration. Methods of transforming current response data also are disclosed. Further disclosed are devices, apparatuses and systems incorporating the various measurement methods.

Abstract: The presence of hydrocarbons in a subsurface formation fluid may be inferred from a determined salt concentration. A sodium nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) measurement of a subsurface formation is obtained and a salt concentration of the fluid in the subsurface formation is determined from the sodium NMR measurement. Various operations may be performed using the determined salt concentration such as tracking injected water, monitoring flood fronts, improving reserves estimation, and designing enhanced oil recovery. A sodium index may be determined and used in conjunction with one or more other logs to determine a saturation of the subsurface formation. The one or more other logs may include a resistivity log, a dielectric log, a capture cross section (sigma) log, and a proton NMR log. Differentiation between bound water and free water can also be achieved using the sodium nuclear magnetic resonance measurement.

Title: Therapy prediction and optimization of serum potassium for renal failure blood therapy, especially home hemodialysis
Inventor: AKONUR ALP
IPC: G16H70/60
Filed: 2014-08-08
Abstract: A method of predicting serum potassium concentrations in a patient during hemodialysis includes measuring serum potassium concentrations of the patient over a hemodialysis treatment session time and an ultrafiltration rate calculated by a difference between pre- and post-dialytic body weight of the patient during an initial hemodialysis treatment session divided by a total treatment time of the treatment session and estimating a potassium mobilization clearance and a pre-dialysis distribution volume of potassium for the patient. Serum potassium concentrations of the patient can then be predicted at any time during any hemodialysis treatment session with the estimated potassium mobilization clearance and pre-dialysis distribution volume of potassium of the patient.

Abstract: An automated planter device for planting seedlings in an obstacle-strewn and/or uneven terrain. A laterally extendable boom is provided at the end of a vertically-moveable arm, which arm may also be swung from side to side. The boom has a plurality of spaced- apart seedling injectors thereon for planting seedlings. Advantageously, due to variably adjustable positioning of the seedling injectors on the boom, obstacles encountered such as tree stumps or medium sized rocks capable of being traversed but which otherwise create an obstacle to a typical seedling planter, may be avoided. The seedling injectors are each coupled via vacuum hoses to a bin mounted on the planter, which vacuum hoses supply seedlings from the bin to the injectors. A powered gantry at the rear of the planter unloads the bin from the planter when empty, and engages and lifts a re-stocked bin containing additional seedlings onto the rear of the device.
