Publication number: 20180360530Abstract: A device and method that provides a minimally-invasive approach to performing treatments on soft tissue, such as that found in the bladder. The device is useful for manipulating tissue such that treatment tools can be inserted into the tissue at a controlled depth.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 27, 2018Publication date: December 20, 2018Applicant: Amphora Medical, Inc.Inventors: Edwin J. Hlavka, Thomas V. Ressemann, Eric Whitbrook, John Christian Knudson

Patent number: 10058381Abstract: A device and method that provides a minimally-invasive approach to performing treatments on soft tissue, such as that found in the bladder. The device is useful for manipulating tissue such that treatment tools can be inserted into the tissue at a controlled depth. In some implementations, the device and method described herein are suited to provide therapy to non-mucosal target tissue (or a target volume of tissue) to modulate bladder function. In an example, energy can be delivered to denervate selected portions of the bladder, such as afferent nerves.Type: GrantFiled: May 22, 2015Date of Patent: August 28, 2018Assignee: Amphora Medical, Inc.Inventors: Edwin J. Hlavka, Thomas V. Ressemann, Eric Whitbrook, John Christian Knudson

Patent number: 6266289Abstract: A method of toroid writing and reading of information, consisting in that from toroid-like patterns made from a magnetic material the structures are organized, comprising information and reference patterns, having a closed magnetic flux of the appropriate twisting direction. When writing the alternative information, on changes the twisting direction of the closed magnetic flux in appropriate information patterns by exposing them to the coordinated in the time and magnitude action of mutually intersecting biasing and magnetic reversal alternating magnetic fields, and when reading the information, one acts on the information and the reference patterns by an alternative biasing magnetic field, afterwards detects the output signals and on the character of their responses determines the value of the information unit written into the information pattern.Type: GrantFiled: July 12, 1999Date of Patent: July 24, 2001Assignee: AmphoraInventors: Vladimir Mikhailovich Dubovik, Yury Vyacheslavovich Kislyakov, Mikhail Andreevich Martsenyuk, Pavel Albertovich Ossipov, Viktor Alekseevich Senchenko

Patent number: 3976234Abstract: A lightweight, portable apparatus for carrying skis and ski poles having a relatively rigid body member formed of a lightweight, easily molded material having one end formed with generally C-shaped clips to receive and hold a pair of parallel ski poles. One end of an elongated elastic strap is mounted on the body member to encircle a pair of parallel skis. The opposite end of the strap has locking means which engage the body member to maintain the elastic strap in tension around the skis and hold them tightly and securely together.Type: GrantFiled: September 23, 1974Date of Patent: August 24, 1976Assignee: Amphora Enterprises Inc.Inventors: George M. Moudry, Nancy Lee Moudry, Nicholas F. Casiello, Anthony V. Marino
