20100191089METHOD AND SYSTEM TO DETECT NEOINTIMA COVERAGE OF A STENT - A method and endovascular system, such as a balloon catheter, for detecting the absence of neointimal coverage of bare or drug-eluting metal stents, featuring two (bipolar systems) or more electrodes (multipolar systems). The distal part of the device has an expandable platform, such as an inflatable balloon, for providing transient mechanical contact of the electrodes to the stented vessel segment. The electrodes on the expandable platform have a circumferential-symmetric array, i.e., arrangement in identical circular sectors. For example, the electrodes are arranged in semicircles, i.e., at 90 and 180 degrees, when using a bipolar catheter system, or they are arranged in quarter-sections, i.e., at 90, 180, 270, and 360 degrees, when using a quadrupolar catheter system. The electrodes of the endovascular device connect with a direct current (DC) or alternating current (AC) measurement unit. With multipolar systems, rotational impedance measurement technology is used for accurate detection of exposed (non-covered) stent struts and is defined herein as sequential (clock-wise or counterclock-wise) testing of each single electrode against the remaining electrically interconnected electrodes. The described endovascular system requires direct mechanical contact of at least 2 electrically non-interconnected electrodes with the stent to induce short-circuit current. The method and system can distinguish complete neointimal stent coverage, defined as consistently high impedance values in all measurements, from partial neointimal coverage, defined as a mix of high and low impedance values, from missing neointimal coverage, defined as consistently low impedance values in all measurements.07-29-2010

20090089079System and method for determining whether to issue an alert to consider prophylaxis for a risk condition - Disclosed herein is a system and method for determining whether to issue an alert to consider prophylaxis (e.g., mechanical and/or pharmacological) with respect to a risk condition (e.g., risk of VTE, DVT and/or PE). One or more sources of patient information are queried to retrieve patient information for a set of patients. From this retrieved patient information, it is determined whether any risk factors of a set of risk factors are satisfied for each such patient. For each patient for which one or more risk factors are satisfied, a respective value and/or classification is assigned to each risk factor. The values and/or classifications are combined to produce a combined value, and it is determined from the combined value whether the patient has the risk condition. If the patient has the risk condition, an alert is issued (e.g., on a display screen) to a health care provider for consideration of prophylaxis.04-02-2009

20120097616HYDROCYCLONE, SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CLEANING CELLULOSE SUSPENSIONS - The present invention concerns a hydrocyclone for cleaning cellulose suspensions from light impurities i.e. a so called reverse hydrocyclone, having a base end and an apex end and a separation chamber having an elongated shape between the base end and the apex end, at least one inlet arranged at the base end and at least one underflow outlet at the apex end and at least one overflow outlet at the base end. The overflow outlet is provided with an additional, light reject outlet arranged concentrically to a length axis of the hydrocyclone. The invention also concerns a system and a method for producing and/or treating cellulose suspension comprising at least a reverse cleaning stage and at least a dewatering stage.04-26-2012
