20150045615 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR EXTERNAL PERCUTANEOUS CONNECTIONS - The present invention provides a system and method for creating a percutaneous fluidic connection. In one embodiment, the system includes an endoscope having an end cap with a tube that defines a distal cavity and an internal magnet circumferentially arranged around the distal end of the tube. The internal magnet is delivered into the patient's stomach and pressed against an inner wall of the stomach. An external magnet is placed on an external surface of the patient's skin corresponding to the location of the internal magnet and the inner and external magnets are coupled together. An incision is made through the skin to access the distal cavity, and an overtube containing a PEG device is inserted into the distal cavity. The magnets are decoupled and removed, leaving the overtube in place, which is subsequently retracted from the PEG device, allowing the PEG device to be anchored in place. | 02-12-2015 |

20100230584 | Method for setting an operating parameter of a particle beam device and a sample holder for performing the method - A method for adjusting an operating parameter of a particle beam device and a sample holder, which is suitable in particular for performing the method are provided. An adjustment of an operating parameter of a particle beam device is possible without transfer of the sample holder out of the particle beam device. A reference sample is placed in a first sample receptacle, so that in ongoing operation of the particle beam device, the sample holder need only be positioned in such a way that the reference sample is bombarded and measured with the aid of a particle beam generated in the particle beam device. | 09-16-2010 |

20140323846 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DETERMINING HEMODYNAMIC STATUS THROUGH A BLOOD PRESSURE RELATED INDEX - A system for determining a hemodynamic status of an individual may include a photoplethysmography (PPG) sub-system configured to detect a PPG signal and a response triggering module configured to analyze the PPG signal and output one or more response triggers based on a changing feature of the PPG signal within a time window. Each of the one or more response triggers may relate to an instruction to initiate detection of at least one physiological characteristic of the individual. A blood pressure (BP) variability index determination module is configured to determine a BP variability index related to a hemodynamic status of the individual based on a frequency or pattern of the one or more response triggers. | 10-30-2014 |

20120126796 | POSITION SENSOR AND LINEAR ACTUATOR - A linear magnetic position sensor may include a magnetic field generating unit having two permanent magnets for generating a magnetic field. A Hall sensor may be disposed in a region of the magnetic field forming a linear measuring section, wherein the Hall sensor and the magnetic field generating unit are linearly displaceable relative to one another along a longitudinal direction in order to position the Hall sensor within the measuring section. The permanent magnets may be polarized in a transverse direction running perpendicular to the longitudinal direction. The permanent magnets may be spaced apart from one another in the longitudinal direction. Each pole of one of the permanent magnets may be connected to a pole of the other permanent magnet via a magnetic conductor element. | 05-24-2012 |

20100206401 | MULTI-STAGE FLUID REGULATORS - Multi-stage fluid regulators are described. An example fluid regulator includes a regulator body having an inlet in fluid communication with a source of pressurized fluid. A first fluid valve is disposed within the regulator body and coupled to the inlet to regulate a pressure of the pressurized fluid at the inlet. A second fluid valve is disposed within the regulator body and coupled to the inlet and, via a passageway, to the first fluid valve. The second fluid valve is to cause a fluid pressure in the passageway to be regulated to a predetermined portion of the pressure of the pressurized fluid at the inlet. | 08-19-2010 |

The outlet is in fluid communication with the sensing chamber via a first flow passageway in the regulator body. A bonnet is coupled to the regulator body and defines an inlet of the fluid flow path and a loading chamber disposed between the sensing chamber and the inlet. The loading chamber is substantially sealed relative to the fluid flow path of the fluid regulator. A pressure sensor is disposed between the inlet and the sensing chamber, where the pressure sensor defines a second flow passageway to fluidly couple the inlet and the sensing chamber. | 10-25-2012 |

20080294926 | Globally synchronized timestamp value counter - The present invention relates to a synchronized timestamp mechanism in a packet processing system. This synchronized timestamp mechanism provides a globally synchronized counter value so counters located on separate packet processing cards can be synchronized. The synchronizing of these packet processing cards provides tracking of how long it takes for packets to be processed, provides the ability to generate packet headers that include sequence numbers for robust header compression, and allows the use of encryption protocols without a time reference signal. The synchronization is provided by sending the cards with counter value information and this information can be used to update the card's internal counter value information so that the card is synchronized with other cards. | 11-27-2008 |
