20100307945DEVICE FOR STORING DIAPERS - Patent of Utility Model for a device that stores diapers of different sizes, in a deposit where both supply and removal of diapers (one at a time) is processed in a safe and practical way for users' personal hygiene. The use of the Diaper Holder starts when diapers are removed one by one, bottom-top wise. After a diaper has been removed from the bottom of the stack, it automatically lowers and the next diaper becomes available. Therefore, diapers are always ready to be removed, offering theirs users comfort and safety.12-09-2010

20090166178METHODS FOR STERILIZING MATERIALS CONTAINING BIOLOGICALLY ACTIVE AGENTS - Provided are methods for sterilizing a material comprising a biologically-active agent comprising irradiating said material with ionizing radiation at a dose of about 5 kGy to about 25 kGy while maintaining said material in an atmosphere comprising at least 95% by volume inert gas and at a temperature of about 4° C. or lower. Also provided are sterilized materials comprising a biologically-active agent, wherein said materials exhibit substantially the same amount of biological activity as a non-sterilized control.07-02-2009

20090112135Method of Estimating the Actual ECG of a Patient During CPR - A method of processing a raw acceleration signal, measured by an accelerometer-based compression monitor, to produce an accurate and precise estimated actual depth of chest compressions. The raw acceleration signal is filtered during integration and then a moving average of past starting points estimates the actual current starting point. An estimated actual peak of the compression is then determined in a similar fashion. The estimated actual starting point is subtracted from the estimated actual peak to calculate the estimated actual depth of chest compressions. In addition, one or more reference sensors (such as an ECG noise sensor) may be used to help establish the starting points of compressions. The reference sensors may be used, either alone or in combination with other signal processing techniques, to enhance the accuracy and precision of the estimated actual depth of compressions.04-30-2009
20090204036Automated Chest Compression Apparatus - A system applies cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) to a recipient. An automated controller is provided together with a compression device which periodically applies a force to a recipient's thorax under control of the automated controller. A band is adapted to be placed around a portion of the torso of the recipient corresponding to the recipient's thorax. A driver mechanism shortens and lengthens the circumference of the band. By shortening the circumference of the band, radial forces are created acting on at least lateral and anterior portions of the thorax. A translating mechanism may be. provided for translating the radial forces to increase the concentration of anterior radial forces acting on the anterior portion of the thorax. The driver mechanism may comprise a tension device for applying a circumference tensile force to the band. The driver mechanism may comprise an electric motor, a pneumatic linear actuator, or a contracting mechanism defining certain portions of the circumference of the band. The contracting mechanism may comprise plural fluid-receiving cells linked together along the circumference of the band. The width of each of the fluid-receiving cells becomes smaller as each cell is filled with a fluid. This causes the contraction of the band and a resulting shortening of the circumference of the band.08-13-2009
20100094368System and/or method for refibrillation of the heart for treatment of post-countershock pulseless electrical activity and/or asystole - A method and/or system for inducing ventricular fibrillation (VF) of the heart for treatment of post-countershock pulseless electrical activity (PEA) or asystole. In certain example embodiments, it has been found that reinduction of ventricular fibrillation, followed by restoration of blood flow with cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), can make subsequent countershocks more successful in restoring a heart rhythm associated with blood flow.04-15-2010
20120016179NON-INVASIVE DEVICE FOR SYNCHRONIZING CHEST COMPRESSION AND VENTILATION PARAMETERS TO RESIDUAL MYOCARDIAL ACTIVITY DURING CARDIOPULMONARY RESUSCITATION - A method for improving the cardiac output of a patient who is suffering from pulseless electrical activity or shock and yet still displays some myocardial wall motion including sensing myocardial activity to determine the presence of residual left ventricular pump function having a contraction or ejection phase and a filling or relaxation phase. In such cases, a compressive force is repeatedly applied to the chest based on the sensed myocardial activity such that the compressive force is applied during at least some of the ejection phases and is ceased during at least some of the relaxation phases to permit residual cardiac filling, thereby enhancing cardiac output and organ perfusion. Also incorporated may be a logic circuit capable of utilizing multiple sensing modalities and optimizing the synchronization pattern between multiple phasic therapeutic modalities and myocardial residual mechanical function.01-19-2012

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20120012094FREESTANDING BARBECUE - A freestanding barbecue is provided comprising a base, an upright central column extending from the base and supporting at its operatively upper end a central region of a generally horizontal cooking support that is typically a cooking grid or a shallow dished impervious cooking surface. An ash pan encircles the central column and is vertically adjustable in position with respect to the upper end of the column and thus the cooking support. Preferably, a lever arrangement is fitted to the column for effecting vertical adjustment of the ash pan. The ash pan preferably has a central sleeve that serves to guide the ash pan relative to the central column and is supported on a collar that is movable relative to the column. The freestanding barbecue is preferably collapsible in which instance the cooking support and ash pan are removable from the central column that in turn is removable from the base. The column is conveniently collapsible by being made in a plurality of collinear parts.01-19-2012
