| 20080208171 | DEVICE AND METHOD FOR REMOVING EDEMA - The present invention relates to a device and method for removing edema from an edematous tissue. The device includes at least one aciculated component disposed in fluid communication with a suction manifold. A suction source is fluidically connected to the suction manifold to provide a suction force to the suction manifold. The suction force is transmitted through the suction manifold to the at least one aciculated component to withdraw the edema from edematous tissue through the suction manifold and the at least one aciculated component. | 08-28-2008 |
| 20080281324 | EXTERNAL FIXATION ASSEMBLY AND METHOD OF USE - An external fixation assembly includes a plurality of hollow pins that are inserted into a patient's bone. Each pin has an interior bore and a plurality of apertures extending through the pin wall from the bore. The pin may be coupled to a source of vacuum pressure operable to create reduced pressure in the tissue surrounding the pin. A cover is placed around the pin and sealed to provide a fluid-tight enclosure that maintains reduced pressure around the pin. A method for applying external fixation using the fixator pins described above includes the steps of inserting each pin through a skin opening, positioning the pin apertures near selected tissue, covering the skin opening with a sealed enclosure, connecting the pins to a source of vacuum pressure, and activating the source of vacuum pressure to create reduced pressure in the patient's tissue at or near the bone. | 11-13-2008 |
| 20090187259 | DEVICES AND METHODS FOR TREATING SPINAL CORD TISSUE - The present invention provides devices and methods that treat damaged spinal cord tissue, such as spinal tissue damaged by disease, infection, or trauma, which may lead to the presence of swelling, compression, and compromised blood flow secondary to interstitial edema. | 07-23-2009 |
| 20090254120 | DEVICE AND METHOD FOR TREATING CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM PATHOLOGY - The present invention relates generally to a device and method for treating tissues of the central nervous system and more particularly, but not exclusively, to a device and method for treating the brain tissue. | 10-08-2009 |
| 20100121229 | Apparatus and Method for Cardiac Tissue Modulation by Topical Application of Vacuum to Minimize Cell Death and Damage - A method and apparatus are provided for treating cardiac tissue to modulate ischemic heart tissue with topical sub-atmospheric pressure to minimize cell death and damage. | 05-13-2010 |

| 20080208147 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR WOUND TREATMENT EMPLOYING PERIODIC SUB-ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE - A tissue treatment apparatus and method are provided for treating tissue by the application of the time-varying sub-atmospheric pressure. The apparatus includes a cover adapted to cover a wound and adapted to maintain sub-atmospheric pressure the site of the wound. The apparatus further includes a source of suction configured to generate a time-varying sub-atmospheric pressure having a periodic waveform comprising a gradual change in pressure. The suction source cooperates with the cover to supply the time-varying sub-atmospheric pressure under the cover to the wound. The time-varying sub-atmospheric pressure may vary between a first pressure value below the inherent tissue tension of the wound tissue and a second pressure value above the inherent tissue tension of the wound tissue. | 08-28-2008 |

| 20080267250 | Equipment for Measurement and Control of Load Material or Scrap Feeding Into a Furnace and Relative Method - An equipment for the measurement and control of load material and scrap metal feeding into an electrical arc furnace, including an automatic control device for feeding control of load material or scrap according to the energy supplied to the bath, and a measuring device for the added load material, in correlation with the automatic control device, comprising a weighing device for the furnace shell, its contents and any other components it may support. | 10-30-2008 |
| 20090031854 | Apparatus for the Combustion of Gas Exiting From a Furnace, for the Preheating of Scraps Entering the Furnace Itself and Related Process - An apparatus for the combustion of gas exiting from an electric arc furnace for the preheating of scraps entering the furnace itself foresees an insertion device of comburent substance into a preheating chamber or loading tunnel of the scrap metal having an inlet section of the scrap metal, a seal section to prevent an uncontrolled entrance of air in the tunnel, a heating section and an unloading section of the scrap metal in the furnace. Said insertion device of the comburent substance comprises one or more adjustable openings placed in the loading tunnel, and said apparatus comprises a device or a series of devices, also not equipped with autonomous movement, of mechanical seal nature placed in the insertion or inlet section of the scrap metal in the loading tunnel or preheating chamber. | 02-05-2009 |
