Patent EP-0940124-A1 (EP)
Inventor: CHRISTODOULOU NIKOLAOS
IPC: A61B17/64
Filed: 1998-03-12
Abstract: The external fixation device is used in surgical orthopaedics and
traumatology for stabilization (osteosynthesis) of fractures, osteotomies,
arthrodesis e.t.c. 
     Specially, in trochanteric fractures, until now, there is not described any special
external nail which can permit compression or sliding at the area of the trochanteric
fracture to increase stabilization and consolidation. 
     In internal osteosynthesis,
nails or plates are placed internally with serious hemorrhagic open intervention
without the nail or the plate being left outside of the skin. 
     The disclosure gives the possibility, without serious hemorrhagic
open intervention, to place a special nail which is left outside the skin to be
connected with an external fixation device in such a way as to cause compression or
sliding on the trochanteric fracture in a direction parallel with the nail, and also it is
possible to correct, if it is needed post-operatively, varus or valgus deformity. 
     It is also possible easily post-operatively to insert or extract the nail as it has a
screwed end for the stabilization of the head and the neck of the femoral bone and this
is impossible with internal nails without open hemorrhagic intervention. 
     The external fixation device with changeable angle for trochanteric fractures, as disclosed,
is characterized mainly by that it includes a long external nail threaded
at one end which can cause compression or sliding on a trochanteric fracture .

Abstract: An improved method and apparatus for treating mammalian hypothermy comprising, in a preferred embodiment, a portable, self-powered, lightweight apparatus having a vacuum chamber for receiving a limb of a hypothermia subject, a hand vacuum pump to manually produce a negative atmosphere in the vacuum chamber, gasket means for sealing the vacuum chamber from atmosphere, and an exothermic chemically-activated heat source for supplying heat to the subject limb. The limb of the hypothermic subject is placed in the vacuum chamber after application of the heat source about the limb, and the chamber is sealed and evacuated. Shortly thereafter, and up to at least an order of magnitude faster than conventional forced air warming techniques, the core body temperature of the hypothermic subject may be rapidly increased to normal temperature. The preferred apparatus is designed for use in the field as well as in the hospital in a portable, self-contained manner.

Inventor: KUHR WERNER G
IPC: G01N27/416
Filed: 1998-07-10
Abstract: Sinusoidal voltammetry was employed to detect both purine and pyrimidine-based nucleic acids. Adenine and cytosine, representing these two classes of nucleic acids, could be detected with nanomolar detection limits at a copper electrode under these conditions, where the sensitivity for adenine was much higher than that for cytosine. Detection limits for purine-containing nucleotides (e.g., adenosine 5'-monophosphate (AMP), adenosine 5'-diphosphate (ADP), and adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP)) were on the order of 70-200 nM using this method. These detection limits are achieved for native nucleotides and are over two orders of magnitude lower than those found with UV absorbance detection. Pyrimidine-based nucleotides could also be detected with high sensitivity due to the presence of a sugar backbone which is electroactive at the copper surface.

Patent EP-1024845-A1 (EP)
Inventor: GROSS JOSEPH
IPC: A61M5/20
Filed: 1998-10-20
Abstract: A syringe comprises a barrel containing an internal cylindrical body containing a liquid and communicating with a delivery needle. The needle is covered before use by a removable sheath, and after the sheath is removed, the needle is concealed by a displaceable sleeve. In use the sleeve is pressed against the skin by applying pressure while holding the barrel. The sleeve is thereby retracted into the barrel allowing the needle to penetrate the skin. The movement of the sleeve also activates a gas generator which expels the liquid from the needle. When delivery is complete and the syringe is taken from the skin, a coil spring moves the sleeve back to the starting position again concealing the needle. The coil spring is torsionally biased before use and causes a rotational movement of the sleeve relative to the barrel when the sleeve moves into and out of the barrel. This rotational movement engages a locking mechanism which prevents further movement of the sleeve and thereby permanently conceals the needle.

Abstract: The method involves scanning an object with a 3D ultrasonic probe, and selecting signals obtained from echo pulses based on certain criteria. For an image consisting of a volume region including multilayer or different individual bodies, a shell layer that lies adjacent to a layer or body surface is defined as a geometric selection criterion. Only signals fulfilling this criterion are used for image formation. The thickness of the shell layer may be varied between approximately zero and a value including the entire layer or the entire body.
