Patent EP-0609906-A2 (EP)
Inventor: BANKS THOMAS F C O MINNESOTA M
IPC: A61B17/072
Filed: 1989-03-08
Abstract: A stapling instrument (10) including two elongate structural members (12,14) each comprising a handle part (16,18) with a jaw part (20,22) projecting from a first end. The structural members have pivot means at second ends of their handle parts adapted for free engagement and disengagement and relative pivotal movement of the structural members between open and closed positions. An elongate locking member (28) is mounted one one of the structural members (12,14) for pivotal movement to a locking position generally aligned with its handle part where the locking member can be releasably retained to forcefully move the structural members to their closed position so that high compressive forces can be applied to tissues between the jaw parts. Staples (43) from a cartridge (42) along one jaw part can then be driven through the tissue and closed against an anvil (40) along the other jaw part. One of the structural members has a support element (50) in contact with the other of the structural members transverse of a space between the handle parts when the structural members are in their closed position to restrict bending and movement of the handle parts toward each other in response to separating forces applied between the jaw parts (20,22) as a result of compressed tissues so that the staples (43) can be properly closed.

Abstract: A methode for defibrillating a patient's heart with an implantable defibrillator having defibrillation synchronized to the fibrillation waveform is disclosed. The defibrillator is used to detect fibrillation in a patient's heart, monitor at least one far-field fibrillation voltage across two spaced-apart electrodes while the high voltage capacitors are charging, then deliver a high energy shock during a period of ventricular fibrillation when the absolute values of the peak and trough voltages exceed a threshold based on a desired percentage greater than a running average of the abolute values of the peaks and troughs of the fibrillation voltages monitored during and after capacitor charging. The shock is then delivered synchronous with the next significant cardiac complex. The defibrillator also includes a safety timer so that if the threshold is not reached within a specified safe time limit, the energy shock will be delivered without further delay.

Abstract: Dans un procédé de détermination de la vitesse d'un aéronef par rapport à une masse d'air, on évite les mesures de la pression statique et de la température dans un écoulement d'air libre en utilisant une composante de la pression statique et de la température présente dans les variations de pression détectées par un capteur de pression totale situé sur un bras rotatif monté sur le fuselage d'un aéronef. Une analyse harmonique d'une variation de pression totale quasi-sinusoïdale comprend la détermination d'un régime permanent et des composantes des premier et deuxième harmoniques. On utilise ces composantes d'harmoniques pour déterminer la pression statique, la température dans un écoulement d'air libre et la vitesse de l'aéronef sans avoir à détecter ces paramètres séparément.

Abstract: A fuze (12) detonates a spin-stabilized projectile (10) after the fuze (12) experiences a preset number of turns. The preset number is communicated (64) to the fuze (12) prior to launch. A semiconductor piezoelectric strain gage (26) senses stress and provides a signal which is responsive to centrifugal forces experienced by the sensor (26) as a result of projectile spin. A microcontroller (30) repetitively digitizes and translates the sensor signal to determine turn numbers, which the microcontroller (30) integrates to determine the total number of turns experienced by the fuze (12) since launch. When the accumulated turn number reaches (94) the preset number, the fuze (12) detonates the projectile (10). However, an arming duration (76) must have expired before the projectile (10) can detonate, and the projectile (10) can detonate at any time following the expiration of the arming duration when an impact is detected.
