摘要:
Balloon systems for treating bifurcated lumens include desirable burst and folding characteristics. In some cases, the balloon systems can be formed by varying the wall thickness of a balloon parison.
摘要:
A medical device for insertion and expansion within a bifurcated lumen is described. An expansion region of the device has regions thereon which, in some cases, enable the device to fold into a predetermined configuration upon deflation. The regions may be defined by differing modulus of the device material.
摘要:
A circuit and method for generating an Error Correcting Code (ECC) based on an adjacent symbol codeword that is formed in two clock phases. In an embodiment, a set of m bits of a first symbol and a set of m bits of a second symbol from a first set of data for transmission over a channel during a first clock phase are generated. A set of n bits of the first symbol and a set of n bits of the second symbol from a second set of data over a channel are also generated during a second clock phase. Other embodiments are also claimed and/or disclosed.
摘要:
A medical device is disclosed which may include the use of nanopaper. The medical device may be provided in the form of a balloon catheter wherein the nanopaper is mounted about an electrode and into which an electrically conductive solution is dispersed. An elastomeric sheath may then be provided about the nanopaper. Actuation of the electrode may cause generation of microbubbles causing the nanopaper to expand.
摘要:
Percutaneous treatment of aortic aneurysms and like vascular anomalies by an apparatus and method wherein the apparatus is delivered via catheter and comprises a sleeve with at least one peripheral conduit which is caused to assume an expanded, rigid configuration by the introduction of a chemical or mechanical hardening means, whereby the sleeve is caused to assume an open cylindrical configuration for fluid flow therethrough.

Embodiments of the invention are generally directed to systems, methods, and apparatuses for a memory device anti-aliasing scheme. In an embodiment, a memory controller includes an error check agent to receive a codeword from a rank of memory and to provide an error indication in response to detecting a correctable adjacent-symbol-pair-error the rank of memory. An error counter may be coupled with the error check agent to increment towards a threshold value in response to the error indication from the error check agent. In an embodiment, a faulty memory device marker agent coupled with the error counter provides a faulty memory device marker to the error check agent, if the error counter exceeds the threshold value. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

A medical device formed at least in part from a microfibrillar polymer-polymer composite, the microfibrillar polymer-polymer composite comprising a polymer matrix and oriented polymer microfibrils, and method of making the same.
摘要:
Improved methods and apparatus for capturing emboli and subsequently removing or immobilizing the captured emboli are described. Emboli can be captured within a blood vessel and can be withdrawn to a position exterior to the blood vessel. Some filters can remain within a blood vessel yet direct emboli to a position exterior to the blood vessel.
