摘要： A system (10) and method for controlling the inflation, ablation, and deflation of a balloon catheter (1) is provided. The system includes a balloon catheter (1), a console (20) having a pressurized gas or liquid inflation source, and an umbilical system (12) to deliver pressurized coolant to the balloon catheter (1). The system (10) comprises a PID (Proportional Integral Derivative) controller or other pressure-sensing device that monitors the amount of pressure and volume within the balloon catheter. During inflation, the pressure and/or volume of fluid within the balloon (23) is maintained at a target amount in order to provide sufficient mechanized pressure against the desired target region. The system limits the inflation pressure such that a safe quantity of gas would be released should a leak occur. If the amount falls below a certain threshold level, gas or fluid egress is presumed and the inflation process is halted.

摘要： An electro-nerve stimulator system includes a pulse generator for generating current pulses with a transcutaneous patch and percutaneous needle for delivering current pulses to selected stimulation sites. The stimulator is a small battery operated external device that allows adjustment of stimulation levels and interfaces, via a connector, to the trans-percutaneous cable. The transcutaneous electrode is attached to the skin distal from the desired stimulated nerve site. A percutaneous needle is inserted close to the internal nerve site. Stimulation current pulses are designed to flow between the transcutaneous electrode and the internal percutaneous needle. The field generated at the needle site causes the nerve to fire.

摘要： The present invention provides a medical system, including a catheter defining an injection lumen, a chamber in fluid communication with the injection lumen, and an exhaust lumen in fluid communication with the chamber; a first temperature sensor positioned in the exhaust lumen proximal to the chamber; a second temperature sensor positioned in the chamber; and a console in electrical communication with the first and second temperature sensors, the controller modifying coolant flow through the medical device based at least in part upon a signal received from the first and second temperature sensor. The system may further include a thermally-conductive element circumscribing a substantial portion of the exhaust lumen proximal to the chamber, where the first temperature sensor is mounted to the thermally-conductive element, and the thermally-conductive element may include at least one of a braid, coil, and band.

摘要： A MUD (115) enabled cable modem (615) that provides efficient use of cable television network bandwidth in the presence of interference and noise is disclosed. The modem (615) design provides for compatibility with existing network hardware and protocols so that bandwidth efficient modems (615) configured in accordance with the principles of the present invention may be added to the network without removing installed hardware and software. A bandwidth efficient modem (615) in the cable network head-end (505) increases reverse link capacity from the terminals to the head end, while bandwidth efficient modems (615) in cable network terminals increases forward link capacity from the head end (505) to the terminals. Bidirectional bandwidth efficiency is thereby enabled.

摘要： The present invention is directed to a retention element for retaining first and second components in assembled relationship. The first component (10) comprises a body (14) having first (16) and second (18) external surfaces and an inner wall (20) defining an aperture (21) extending through the body, and the second component (12) comprises a longitudinal member (22) having a size and configuration to permit insertion within said aperture (21) to thereby assemble the components. The retention element comprises: an elastromeric protuberance (32) extending into the aperture from a base (34) adhering to the inner wall (20) to a distal edge (36) which spans a portion of the aperture. The protuberance also has an inside wall (37) and an outside wall (38) which meet at the distal edge (36) and together define a flexible free end (39). Upon insertion of the second component into the aperture of the first component, the free end of the protuberance flexes in the direction of insertion such that the force required to assemble the two components is less than the force required to disassemble the two components.
