20100160765 | THERAPEUTIC SUCCESS PREDICTION FOR ATRIAL FIBRILLATION - Certain embodiments of the invention provide methods of assessing a patient's risk for atrial fibrillation (AF) recurrence after receiving treatment with an AF treatment modality, that include determining, from left atrium (LA) tissue image data of a patient, a level of a parameter that is positively proportional to an amount of unhealthy tissue in a wall of the LA of the patient; and outputting, to an output device, an indicator of a comparison between (i) the determined level and (ii) a first threshold level of the parameter, the first threshold level derived from LA tissue image data of at least one other patient, who experienced an AF recurrence after treatment with the AF treatment modality. In certain embodiments, levels of the parameter equal to or greater than the first threshold level are indicative of a significant risk of AF recurrence after treatment with the AF treatment modality. | 06-24-2010 |
20100160768 | THERAPEUTIC OUTCOME ASSESSMENT FOR ATRIAL FIBRILLATION - Certain embodiments provide a method of assessing an outcome of an ablative atrial fibrillation (AF) treatment modality administered to a patient, the method including: determining, from left atrium (LA) tissue image data of a subject patient that has undergone an ablative AF treatment with the modality, at least one of: a level of a parameter that is positively proportional or negatively proportional to an amount of ablated tissue in a wall of the LA of the subject patient; and a spatial distribution, in the LA wall, of a variable indicative of ablated LA tissue; and outputting, to an output device, a machine-readable indicator of at least one of: (i) a comparison between the determined level and a threshold level of the parameter; and (ii) a map of the spatial distribution. | 06-24-2010 |
20100298694 | STROKE RISK ASSESSMENT - Certain embodiments provide a method of assessing a risk of thromboembolic stroke in a patient. The method comprises acquiring image data and determining an indicator of a degree of fibrosis of a patient's left atrium (LA) based on the image data. The method also comprises estimating a level of risk of thromboembolic stroke of the patient based on the indicator. | 11-25-2010 |

20140202234 | SAMPLE CLEANING ELEMENT FOR GAS ANALYZER - In one example, a sample gas analyzer includes a sample cell configured to receive a gas sample, a sample tube including a passageway that is in communication with the sample cell, and an intake portion. A cleaning element is disposed between, and arranged for fluid communication with, the sample tube and the sample cell, and includes a body having a chamber configured to aid in imparting a rotational motion to a fluid stream entering the chamber. The cleaning element also includes an inlet port that is in communication with the chamber and that is configured and arranged for communication with the atmosphere. Finally, the cleaning element includes an outlet port in communication with the chamber and the sample cell. | 07-24-2014 |

20080202760 | Subsea securing devices - A securing device comprises an axially reciprocable drive shaft which has a head adapted to pass forwards through a detent plate. The head is adapted to engage the plate after rotation. A cam slot is defined in a drive housing and is engageable by a cam follower carried on the drive shaft. The cam slot has two end portions extending parallel to the axis of the drive shaft and an oblique intermediate part such that the drive shaft is rotated when the follower moves along the intermediate part and the drive shaft moves only axially when the follower moves along either of the end portions. A subsea assembly including the securing device includes a fixed stab plate including a central collar, and a free stab plate having an aperture through which said collar extends, the collar including an chamber defined by the detent plate. | 08-28-2008 |

20120175124 | STAB PLATES AND SUBSEA CONNECTION EQUIPMENT - A subsea connection assembly comprises a stab plate a first stab plate which carries a first plurality of couplers and a second stab platewhich carries a second plurality of couplers for mating engagement with the couplers in the first plurality as the stab plates are moved together. The assembly includes a mounting plate, a support which is disposed for lateral movement in at least one direction relative to the mounting plate, and a pivot which allows tilting movement of the first stab plate relative to the support. The tilting and translational features accommodate many different possible trajectories of a pulling unit. In particular the assembly tolerates a separating action which is oblique to the normal mating and demating direction. | 07-12-2012 |
20120193102 | REMOTE SUBSEA CONNECTION EQUIPMENT - A subsea connection system includes a support unit with a first connector and a distribution unit including an external frame to be landed on and supported by the support unit and an inner frame that is movable within the external frame. An outwardly facing connector may be connected via a long umbilical to a remote platform. Nevertheless, a nearby installation may be controlled via a short umbilical from another connector and thus the nearby installation does not require a long umbilical connected to the remote platform. | 08-02-2012 |
