摘要： Devices for loading a collapsible implant onto a delivery catheter. In one aspect, a loading device comprises an outer tubular structure and an inner tubular structure. The outer tubular structure comprises a narrowing passage configured to receive a catheter at one end and a collapsible implant at another end. The inner tubular structure is configured to move slidably and co-axially within the outer tubular structure. The inner tubular structure comprises a carrier pin configured to move within the narrowing passage as the inner tubular structure slides into the outer tubular structure. The sliding of the inner tubular structure into the outer tubular structure causes an implant mounted on the carrier pin to collapse as the implant moves through the narrowing passage and into the distal end of a catheter. In an optional aspect, the outer tubular structure further comprises a grasper to stabilize the catheter for receipt of the collapsible implant, and the internal diameter of the inner tubular structure varies to cause the grasper to first contract and stabilize the catheter, and then expand and release the catheter, as the grasper moves into the inner tubular structure.

摘要： A system for delivering multiple implants into lung passageways is disclosed. The system comprises a catheter configured to receive and store a plurality of expandable implants, and an actuatable delivery tool coupled to the proximal end of the catheter. The system expels an implant of the plurality of implants with each actuation of the delivery tool. The delivery tool comprises a plunger element which extends through the catheter from the proximal to the distal end and allows the delivery tool to mechanically communicate with the implants. In one embodiment, the system comprises a spring-loaded slidable element, and a user compresses the slidable element to actuate the delivery tool. In another embodiment, the system comprises a rotation rod, and the user moves the rotation rod in a distal direction to actuate the delivery tool.

摘要： The volume of a hyperinflated lung compartment is reduced by sealing a distal end of the catheter in an airway feeding the lung compartment. Air passes out of the lung compartment through a passage in the catheter while the patient exhales. A one-way flow element associated with the catheter prevents air from re-entering the lung compartment as the patient inhales. Over time, the pressure of regions surrounding the lung compartment cause it to collapse as the volume of air diminishes. Residual volume reduction effectively results in functional lung volume expansion. Optionally, the lung compartment may be sealed in order to permanently prevent air from re-entering the lung compartment. The invention further discloses a catheter with a transparent occlusion element at its tip that enables examination of the lung passageway through a viewing scope.

摘要： A method and apparatus in a user equipment transmit a subframe shared by multiple users through a dual-antenna transmission scheme by using space-time coding. A first and a second plurality of modulation symbols are generated. A third and a fourth plurality of modulation symbols are generated by performing Alamouti coding on each pair of modulation symbols in each of the first and second pluralities of modulation symbols. A spread matrix is generated for each modulation symbol such that the first and third pluralities of modulation symbols are mapped to a first slot of the subframe, and the second and third pluralities of modulation symbols are mapped to a second slot of the subframe. The subframe is transmitted such that the first and second pluralities of modulation symbols are transmitted via a first antenna, and the third and fourth pluralities of modulation symbols are transmitted via a second antenna.
