Title: Dispositif et methode de traitement de l'acouphene
Inventor: DAVIS PAUL BENJAMIN
IPC: A61F11/00
Filed: 2000-03-17
Abstract: Cette invention concerne un procédé et un dispositif permettant de soulager une personne souffrant des effets gênants de l'acouphène. Cette méthode peut être mise en oeuvre intégralement au moyen d'un logiciel destiné à modifier spectralement un signal sonore conformément à un algorithme de masquage déterminé qui modifie l'intensité dudit signal à des fréquences données. L'invention rend compte d'un algorithme de masquage qui assure le masquage intermittent de l'acouphène : à un niveau d'écoute confortable, c'est-à-dire pendant des crêtes du signal auditif, l'acouphène est complètement étouffé alors que dans les creux du signal, l'acouphène est occasionnellement perceptible. Concrètement, on a constaté qu'un tel masquage intermittent procurait à la personne un soulagement, une maîtrise et une détente immédiats, tout en autorisant une perception suffisante de l'acouphène pour que la personne s'y habitue et qu'un traitement durable soit possible. L'algorithme de masquage offre l'avantage d'être tout spécialement adapté à la configuration audiométrique de la personne, par exemple en reflétant partiellement les caractéristiques de la perte de pouvoir auditif chez ladite personne. Est également décrit un dispositif de traitement de l'acouphène utilisé conjointement avec un système personnel de reproduction des sons.

Abstract: Disclosed is a system for delivering self-expanding stents to stenting sites within the body, which minimises trauma to the affected tissue of the patient yet, at the same time, offers the medical practitioner a robust and simple system for stent placement. These technical effects are achieved by providing a catheter which receives the stent at its proximal end and guides it to the stenting site. The catheter serves as a guide catheter and has a tapered distal tip from which the stent emerges at the site of stenting. A stent pusher can be used which abuts the proximal end of the stent inside the guide catheter. The tapered tip can be molded and cn be integral with the catheter shaft or bonded to it. The guide catheter can include a figurated portion towards its distal tip. The system has particular application to stenting the carotid artery.

Abstract: Following suspension and dispersion (1) of waste paper fibers (S) in water (W), and any pre-cleaning (2), the suspension is passed through the screen separator (11) in a fine fractionation (3) process. The fine fraction (6) contains impurities; the coarse fraction contains predominantly paper fibers. The fine fraction is subjected to a froth flotation process (4, 4') collecting the fine impurities into foam, for removal. Preferred features: Fine fractionation (3) and flotation (4) are controlled such that acceptable material (8) from flotation contains components, especially fine paper fibers, suitable for paper manufacture. This material is added to the coarse fraction. The fine fraction is removed in a flotation process, producing a clarified water (10). Fine fraction takes place in a pressure sorter containing a screen with openings. Coarse fraction overflows, the fine fraction passes through. Fine fractionation employs screen slots 0.15 mm wide. Round openings can be used, up to a diameter of 2 mm. The sieve is cleared to prevent blockage, using foil-like scrapers. A drum rotor carries scraper blades extending over 200 mm at the circumference. Fractionation is controlled such that fine impurities in the fine fraction have a particle size spectrum generally not exceeding 150 mu m. Control is such that this spectrum is returned by the Sommerville test method, using a slot width of 150 mu m. No adhesive particles, so-called micro-stickies, are removed as fine impurities. Fine fractionation takes place with a supply suspension density of 0.5-2.5%, or 0.5-1.5%. Fine fractionation is carried out at 40 degrees -80 degrees C.
