Patent CA-2552519-A1 (CA)
Title: Method and apparatus for coil positioning for tms studies
Inventor: RIEHL MARK EDWARD
IPC: A61B19/00
Filed: 2005-01-06
Abstract: A device provides simple positioning of the patient's head and simple positioning of the TMS coil relative to a coordinate system of the patient's head once the head is positioned. The TMS coil is fixed at a treatment position in the coordinate system of the patient's head and the position in the coordinate system is recorded for use in subsequent clinical sessions. A  positioner assembly supports the weight of the TMS coil and allows the operator to freely move the TMS coil to search for the patient's motor threshold position (MTP) and/or the treatment position (TXP). If the TXP is in registration with the MTP, once the MTP is determined, the positioner assembly requires only a single adjustment of the magnet position to locate the TXP  where the coil is locked in place for the duration of the TMS therapy. By recording the positions of the different adjustable components in the respective coordinate directions of the coordinate system of the patient's head, exact repositioning of the TMS coil for the patient during a subsequent clinical visit is made possible without use of expensive imaging equipment.

Title: Two phase flow conditioner for pumping gassy well fluid
Inventor: BROWN DONN J
IPC: F04D31/00
Filed: 2005-01-28
Abstract: A centrifugal pump pumps well fluid with a high gaseous content by conditioning the well fluid with a conditioning impeller and conditioning diffuser design for use with gaseous well fluid. The conditioning impellers have vanes that are curved with a leading edge that is rotationally forward and axially below, or upstream, of a trailing edge. The outer end of the leading edge is rotationally forward of the inner end of the leading edge, which forces the well fluid radially inward and mixes the gas and liquids in the well fluid. The conditioning diffusers have blades that are curved with a leading edge that is rotationarily rearward and axially below a trailing edge.  The blades are portions of a sphere, with a concaved side receiving well fluid from the conditioning impellers. The spherical shape forces the well fluid radially inward and axially upward.

Title: Accommodating intraocular lens
Inventor: CUMMING J STUART
IPC: A61F2/16
Filed: 1998-12-09
Abstract: An accommodating intraocular lens (32) to be implanted within the natural capsular bag (20) of a human eye from which the natural lens matrix has been removed through an anterior capsule opening in the bag circumferentially surrounded by an anterior capsular remnant (22). During a postoperative healing period following surgery, the anterior capsular remnant fuses to the posterior capsule of the bag by fibrosis (30) about haptics (36) on the implanted lens while the ciliary muscle is maintained in its relaxed state by a cycloplegic to prevent dislocation of the lens, and the lens is deflected rearwardly by the fibrosing anterior capsular remnant to a distant vision position against the elastic posterior capsule (24) of the bag in which the posterior capsule is stretched rearwardly. After fibrosis is complete, natural brain-induced contraction and relaxation of the ciliary muscle relaxes and stretches the fibrosed anterior remnant and increases and reduces vitreous pressure in the eye to effect vision accommodation by the remnant, the posterior capsule, and vitreous pressure. A method of utilizing the intraocular lens to provide a patient with vision accommodation.

Filed: 2005-04-01
Abstract: Methods and systems for aerosol delivery of agents to a patient are described herein. The present system can be used to administer various types of agents, such as a vaccine or other types of pharmaceutical substances. Certain embodiments of the present system utilize an (18) actuator coupled to a disposable aerosolizing element (16) that aerosolizes an agent for delivery to a patient when acted upon by the actuator. The aerosolizing element prevents the agent from contacting the actuator and other non-disposable components of the system so that little or no cleaning or maintenance is required. The present system also can include an aerosolization rate monitor that monitors the rate at which an agent is being aerosolized and provides feedback to the user to ensure that the proper dose is being administered.
