Patent CA-2735121-A1 (CA)
Inventor: WATSON JAMES NICHOLAS
IPC: G06F17/14
Filed: 2009-09-17
Abstract: Techniques for detecting a signal quality decrease are disclosed.  A sensor or probe may be used to obtain a plethysmograph or photoplethysmograph (PPG) signal from a subject. A wavelet transform of the signal may be performed and a scalogram may be generated based at least in part on the wavelet transform. One or more characteristics of the scalogram may be determined.    The determined characteristics may include, for example, energy values and energy structural characteristics in a pulse band, a mains hum band, and/or a noise band. Such characteristics may be analyzed to produce signal quality values and associated signal quality trends. One or more signal quality values and signal quality trends may be used to determine if a signal quality decrease has occurred or is likely to occur.

Patent CA-2739840-A1 (CA)
Inventor: FORSELL PETER
IPC: A61B17/12
Filed: 2008-10-10
Abstract: An apparatus for controlling a flow of fluid in a lumen formed by a tissue wall of a patient's vas deference comprises an implantable constriction device for gently constricting (i.e. without substantially hampering the blood circulation in the tissue wall) at least one portion of the tissue wall to influence the flow in the lumen, and a stimulation device for stimulating the wall portion of the tissue wall. A control device controls the stimulation device to stimulate the wall portion, as the constriction device constricts the wall portion, to cause contraction of the wall portion constricted by the constriction device to further influence the flow in the lumen. The apparatus can be used for restricting or stopping the flow in the lumen, or for actively moving the fluid in the lumen, with a low risk of injuring the vas deference.
