Abstract:
The present invention relates to processes for reducing impurities in lacosamide during the preparation of lacosamide. The invention provides processes for minimizing or removing impurities such as (2R)-2-(acetylamino)-3-(benzylamino)-3-oxopropyl acetate of Formula II or (2R)-2-propanoylamino-N-benzyl-3-methoxypropionamide of Formula III in lacosamide.

Abstract:
The present invention relates to processes for the preparation of crystalline polymorphic forms of lacosamide (Formula I), including processes for inter-conversion among such polymorphic forms.
Abstract:
An implantable subcutaneous electrical socket and corresponding percutaneous plug are disclosed for controlling and/or energizing an implanted medical device, such as a bone distraction motor, within a patient. The subcutaneous electrical socket is accessed percutaneously by the plug, to connect data and power electrodes deployed from the plug into the socket to conduct control signals and electrical power from an external source to an implanted medical device within the patient. The socket and plug include insulating materials to prevent electrical shock to the patient.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a novel process for the preparation of 10-oxo-10,11-dihydro-5H-dibenzo[b,f]azepine-5-carboxamide, commonly known as oxcarbazepine, which is a medicament and a useful intermediate in the preparation of eslicarbazepine acetate. The present invention further provides a process for the preparation and purification of eslicarbazepine acetate.
Abstract:
Various systems and methods for restoring data using indexes. For example, one method involves receiving a request that includes a restore criterion. The method involves identifying a storage object in a backup storage device that meets the restore criterion, in response to the request. Detecting the identity of the storage object involves sending a query with the restore criterion to a client computing device that includes an index. The method also involves responding to the request with information identifying the storage object.
Abstract:
According to one general aspect, a method may include replicating, to a software-as-a-service application, a plurality of pieces of master data from a physically remote master database. The method may also include converting the plurality of pieces of master data into one or more pieces of local data of the software-as-a-service application. The method may include changing one or more of either the pieces of master data or the pieces of local data. The method may further include synchronizing the changed pieces of either master data or local data between the remote master database and the software-as-a-service application.
Abstract:
A seal for preventing a bodily fluid from penetrating an orthopedic implant comprising a tapered section adapted to conformingly mate to a stem of a first implant component, and a collar section extending from and circumferentially surrounding a portion of the tapered section, the collar section adapted to mate to a base of a second implant component such that the tapered section and collar section define an opening therethrough configured to receive the first implant component.
Abstract:
A method for providing a porous metal implant. A mixture of biocompatible metal, a spacing agent, and a binder is provided. The mixture is formed into a shape and the spacing agent is removed to form a plurality of pores in the implant. A shaped porous metal is also provided.
