Abstract: PCT No. PCT/EP97/02768 Sec. 371 Date Nov. 23, 1998 Sec. 102(e) Date Nov. 23, 1998 PCT Filed May 28, 1997 PCT Pub. No. WO97/49754 PCT Pub. Date Dec. 31, 1997The invention relates to polyamides which are derivatized with polymerizable double bonds and are obtainable by reaction of the amino groups of the polyamide with an amino-reactive compound which contains a polymerizable double bond, or by reaction of the carboxyl groups of the polyamide with a carboxyl group-reactive compound which contains a polymerizable double bond. Examples of amino-reactive compounds which contain a polymerizable double bond are the anhydrides of ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acids, such as acrylic acid chloride or anhydride, methacrylic acid chloride or anhydride, or vinylazlactone derivatives. An example of a carboxyl group-reactive compound is allylamine. These derivatized polyamides can be converted into polymer-modified base polymers (typically block polymers) with improved properties. These polymer-modified base polymers are suitable as adsorbents for chromatography and as carriers for enzymes.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices seal off the branch port of a bifurcated endoluminal prosthesis to transform the bifurcated prosthesis to a single-lumen prosthesis. These methods and devices are available for fallback procedures when the deployment of a bifurcated endoluminal prosthesis is found to be impracticable. By effectively sealing off the second branch port, the attending physician is able to completely isolate an aneurysm or other disease of the vasculature. Where it is necessary and/or desirable to provide fluid communication between the trunk lumen and the second branch lumen, a separate passage may be provided between the first and second branches of the body lumen system.

Abstract: Apparatus is disclosed for non-invasively monitoring a subject's blood pressure, in which a flexible diaphragm that encloses a fluid-filled chamber is compressed against tissue overlying an artery, with sufficient force to compress the artery. A first, relatively slow servo control system optimizes the amount of artery compression, which occurs at a mean transmural pressure of about zero, by modulating the volume of fluid within the chamber and noting the resulting effect on the pressure within the chamber. Since different pressure effects are realized according to the amount of artery compression, an appropriate control signal can be produced that provides the optimum mean diaphragm pressure. In addition, a second, relatively fast servo control system supplies the fluid to and from the chamber, so as to compensate for pressure variations within artery. This minimizes variations in the artery's effective diameter, whereby the pressure within the fluid-filled chamber closely follows the actual arterial pulse waveform.

Abstract: A process is described for preparing radiation-crosslinkable polymeric acrylates and methacrylates, which involves reacting an acrylate or methacrylate copolymer containing units having a reactive side group with a compound that contains a group which is capable of reacting with the reactive side group and also a group which is capable of forming free radicals under the action of actinic radiation. The preparation of the modified, photoactive polymers by polymer-analogous reaction makes it possible to do without the laborious handling of aggressive, specially synthesized monomers, especially acrylic esters. The products of the process can be employed widely as radiation-curable coating materials.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un procédé (500) et un système (100, 600, 700) fonctionnant selon un principe de différentiels d'heure d'arrivée ou 'TDOA' (Time Difference Of Arrival) et permettant d'évaluer la position d'un premier terminal du service radio mobile (108) intégré à un système radio mobile (100, 600, 700). Ce système, qui fonctionne à base de mesures d'heures d'arrivée ou 'TOA' (Time Of Arrival), comporte notamment une pluralité de stations de base radio (BS1, BS2, BS3), des appareils de mesure (130), un contrôleur de réseau (110) et un noeud de service (103). Les appareils de mesure (130) mesurent la TOA à la demande et éventuellement le sens d'arrivée ou 'DOA' (Direction of Arrival), et ce, à l'occasion d'un créneau temporel amont numérique (301 et 302), ou d'une information numérique concernant un canal trafic amont analogique d'une ou plusieurs stations de base radio (BS1, BS2 et BS3). Les données TOA et DOA ainsi que le N° de canal trafic sont signalés à un centre de commutation des services mobiles (102), lequel centre extrait du N° de canal trafic l'identité du premier terminal mobile (108) et envoie à un noeud de service (103) l'identité du terminal et les informations de mesures TOA et DOA. Le noeud de service (103) calcule la position du premier terminal radio mobile (108) en utilisant l'information TOA (complétée le cas échéant de l'information DOA). Un deuxième terminal radio mobile (601) est également situé sur la même plate-forme mobile (automobile, véhicule de secours, etc...) que l'une des stations de base radio (BS1, BS2 ou BS3), laquelle plate-forme peut être amenée très près du premier terminal mobile (108). Il en résulte qu'en amenant l'une des stations de base radio (BS1, BS2 ou BS3) près de la région étudiée (près du premier terminal mobile (108)), on améliore de façon notable la précision de détermination de la position.

Abstract: A medical catheter for the transvascular deployment of a collapsible medical device such as a filter has a tubular body formed by an inner tubular core surrounded by an outer thin-walled tube which is fixed to the core. The outer thin-walled tube extends outwardly beyond a distal end of the core to form a fixed thin-walled medical device embracing pod. The filter is carried on a guidewire which is slidably engagable within a central lumen of the core and the filter can be collapsed against the guidewire for loading within the pod. With the filter thus loaded within the pod the distal end of the catheter can be maneuvered through a patient's vascular system to a desired deployment site where the filter is discharged from the pod allowing the filter to expand within the blood vessel for use filtering blood flowing through the blood vessel.
