| 20130150975 | Shoulder Arthroplasty - A joint prosthesis system, specifically a shoulder prosthesis, for shoulder replacement, revision and repair. The implants provide fixation into the best bone available to a surgeon. The implants are used in a superior-inferior and anterior-posterior construct forming a type of cross or X-shape. The implants allow for interchangeability of the articulating component as well as rotational orientation. The systems will allow for augments to accommodate bone loss. The implants may allow for additional security using screws or anchors inserted into the scapula. | 06-13-2013 |

| 20130053945 | RETENTION SYSTEM FOR AN ENDOLUMINAL DEVICE - A delivery system for an endoluminal device including an introducer, the introducer having a distal end intended to remain outside a patient in use and a proximal end. A stent graft having a first and second end is retained upon the introducer, the stent graft defining a fenestration disposed through a wall of the stent graft between the first and second end. A valve arrangement is disposed within an interior lumen of the stent graft about the fenestration. A retention system including a trigger wire engages and retains the valve arrangement away from the fenestration. The fenestration is in fluid communication with the interior lumen of the stent graft. | 02-28-2013 |
| 20110319595 | FLAGELLIN RELATED POLYPEPTIDES AND USES THEREOF - The use of flagellin and flagellin related polypectides for the protection of mammals from the effects of apoptsis is described. | 12-29-2011 |
| 20110319344 | FLAGELLIN RELATED POLYPEPTIDES AND USES THEREOF - The use of flagellin and flagellin related polypectides for the protection of mammals from the effects of apoptsis is described. | 12-29-2011 |
| 20110311118 | Techniques for 3-D Elastic Spatial Registration of Multiple Modes of Measuring a Body - Techniques for registration of multiple measurement modes of a body include receiving first and second data from different modes. Each includes measured values with coordinate values. For two mechanically aligned modes, any non-rigid registration is performed. For some modes, the non-rigid registration includes a coarse transformation and multiple fine scale transformations. The coarse transformation maximizes a coarse similarity measure. The second data is sub-divided into contiguous sub-regions. Fine transformations are determined between the sub-regions and corresponding portions of the first data to maximize a fine similarity measure. Sub-dividing and determining fine transformations repeats until stop conditions are satisfied. Transformations between the last-divided sub-regions are interpolated. Any of the fine similarity measure, a search region, interpolation method, sub-division location, and the use of rigid or non-rigid fine transformations are adaptive to properties of the first or second data so that the registration is automatic without human intervention. | 12-22-2011 |
| 20110237507 | METHODS OF PROTECTING AGAINST APOPTOSIS USING LIPOPEPTIDES - The use of lipopeptides as inducers of NF-κB for the protection of mammals from the effects of apoptosis is described. | 09-29-2011 |

| 20100174231 | METHOD FOR PHYSIOLOGIC CONTROL OF A CONTINUOUS FLOW TOTAL ARTIFICIAL HEART - A method is provided of controlling a pump including a electrical motor coupled to a rotor which carries first and second impellers at opposite ends thereof. The method includes: (a) driving the rotor using the motor, so as to circulate fluid from the first impeller through a first fluid circuit, the second impeller, a second fluid circuit, and back to the first impeller; (b) determining a resistance of the first fluid circuit, based on a first motor parameter; (c) determining a flow rate through the first fluid circuit based on a second motor parameter; and (d) varying at least one operational parameter of the pump so as to maintain a predetermined relationship between the flow rate and the resistance of the first fluid circuit. | 07-08-2010 |
| 20100150749 | CENTRIFUGAL PUMP WITH OFFSET VOLUTE - A pump includes: (a) an elongated pump housing having first and second ends; (b) a primary impeller mounted in the housing for rotation about an axis, the impeller comprising a plurality of vanes whose outer tips define an impeller plane; (c) an inlet disposed in fluid communication with the primary impeller; and (d) an annular volute housing communicating with the primary impeller and with an outlet, where the volute housing is axially offset from the impeller plane. | 06-17-2010 |
