Patent number: 11770514Abstract: An optical observation instrument according to the invention, in particular a surgical microscope or exoscope, comprises an optics unit with an objective arrangement and at least one electronic image recorder, wherein the optics unit has a first stereo channel with a first beam path and a second stereo channel with a second beam path for recording a stereo image of an object field with the at least one electronic image recorder and wherein the first and the second beam path extend through the objective arrangement. Further, the observation instrument comprises a retaining apparatus which comprises a retaining bracket, which engages over the optics unit, wherein the retaining bracket comprises an operating device with a number of operating elements for controlling a retaining arm, to which the retaining apparatus is connectable.Type: GrantFiled: January 11, 2021Date of Patent: September 26, 2023Assignee: KARL STORZ SE & Co. KGInventors: Sebastian Barth, Markus Blocherer, Christoph Busch, Manuel Ebert, Jonas Forster, Andreas Heni, Benedikt Köhler, Robert Lange, Laura Steck, Annika Witte, Laura Ziegler, Walter Vogel, Kay Behrendt

Patent number: 9183352Abstract: A method, a system and an arrangement for predicting at least one system event and a corresponding computer program and a corresponding computer-readable storage medium are configured so that it is possible to predict a system event based on trends in observables over a certain period of time prior to the event occurring. One example of a system event is the failure of a system because the abnormal behavior of a component is reflected in irregularities in one or a plurality of observables. Another example of a system event is the early recognition or pre-acute prediction of a specific critical condition of a patient.Type: GrantFiled: April 8, 2010Date of Patent: November 10, 2015Assignee: BIOTRONIK CRM Patent AGInventors: Sergey Berdyshev, Manuel Ebert, Thomas Kraemer, Wolfgang Meyer

Patent number: 8783163Abstract: A piston pump device has a support unit, a pump cylinder, and a pump piston arranged in the pump cylinder. The pump cylinder has a longitudinal center axis, and a cylinder bottom arranged perpendicular to the longitudinal center axis. The pump piston is movable relative to the cylinder bottom, and the pump cylinder is secured on the support unit by a securing unit. The securing unit has a leaf spring, which permits a pivoting movement of the longitudinal center axis of the pump cylinder relative to the support unit. The piston pump device is wear-resistant and runs quietly. When used as a suction pump, the piston pump device additionally permits a controllable air flow until the pump comes to a stop.Type: GrantFiled: March 24, 2011Date of Patent: July 22, 2014Assignee: Madela Holding AGInventors: Manuel Ebert, David Imboden, Ivo Ramella

Patent number: 8332018Abstract: A method, a system and an arrangement to predict at least one system event and a corresponding computer program and a corresponding machine-readable storage medium are configured so that the event is predictable because of trends in observables over a certain period before the occurrence of the events. The method, system and arrangement can be used in particular for patient-specific monitoring of patho-physiological changes but also in geophysical or abstract units such as population or economic systems in which the deviation from a defined normal condition is predicted.Type: GrantFiled: April 9, 2010Date of Patent: December 11, 2012Assignee: BIOTRONIK CRM Patent AGInventors: Manuel Ebert, Daniel Bast, Thomas Kraemer, Sergey Berdyshev, Wolfgang Meyer

Patent number: 7909771Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for detecting sleep apnea by analyzing characteristic physiological oscillations of the heart rate variability (HRV). Starting from recorded ECG data of the patient, for example, as a long-term sequence of the changing RR intervals, the heart rate variability is examined using autocorrelation calculations for the occurrence of rhythmic oscillations of various frequencies. If oscillations typical for apnea occur having very long period durations in the range of 20 to 80 seconds, these are detected as a maximum of the autocorrelation function. If a pathological sleep apnea accordingly exists, individual apnea events may be identified by prompt analysis of short recorded RR sequences, e.g., in the minute interval.Type: GrantFiled: June 29, 2007Date of Patent: March 22, 2011Assignee: Biotronik CRM Patent AGInventors: Wolfgang Meyer, Manuel Ebert, Jochen Proff
