Abstract: The invention provides improved medical devices, therapeutic treatment systems, and treatment methods for treatment of the lung. A lung volume reduction system includes an implantable device having an elongate body that is sized and shaped for delivery via the airway system to a lung airway of a patient. The implant is inserted and positioned while the implant is in a delivery configuration, and is reconfigured to a deployed configuration so as to locally compress adjacent tissue of the lung, with portions of the elongate body generally moving laterally within the airway so as to laterally compress lung tissue. A plurality of such implants will often be used to treat a lung of a patient.

Abstract: Systems and methods to monitor a signal from an apparatus are disclosed. A feature extracted from the signal is automatically defined. Signals are received over a period of time wherein the apparatus is in a normal operational mode. Features are classified in a learning mode and are applied to create a reference model that defines a within-normal operational mode. In a testing mode a signal generated by the apparatus is received, a feature is extracted and classified. Instantaneous data generated in operational mode by the apparatus is classified by the system as abnormal if it does not lie within boundaries of the reference model or contains information/structure in an orthogonal subspace. A learned reference model is augmented by a user or automatically. In one illustrative example the apparatus is a power generation equipment and the signal is an acoustic signal.
