Patent number: 11690663Abstract: A cryoablation system is provided that can assume a directional activated state and includes a cryoablation probe and a controller. The cryoablation probe has an active region that includes a cooling compartment and an opposing heating compartment that are thermally insulated from one another to minimize energy losses therebetween such that ice is selectively and directionally formed at the target site. The cooling compartment can include a temperature sensor and an exhaust tube to guide a fluid or gas that exhibits a Joule Thomson cooling effect through the probe. The heating compartment can include a temperature sensor and a heater cartridge having a heater zone. The controller of the cryoablation system can process temperature measurement data from the sensors of the heating and cooling compartments and regulate the heater zone based on the temperature measurement data processing to maintain a temperature that is sufficiently constant to mitigate or prevent formation of ice on the heating compartment.Type: GrantFiled: November 3, 2022Date of Patent: July 4, 2023Assignee: FOCUSED CRYO, INC.Inventor: Yogi A. Patel

Publication number: 20200309725Abstract: Portable microbial load detection is disclosed. For example, a test strip includes a calibration well with first, second, and third calibration traces and a sample well with first, second, and third test traces. A reader is configured to detect a connection with the test strip. A drive signal is applied to the test strip. A first voltage of the second calibration trace is measured indicating a reagent has been added to the calibration well. A second voltage of the third calibration trace is measured over a calibration time period and then used to calibrate the reader. An addition of a test sample in the sample well based is detected. A third voltage of the third test trace is measured over a test time period. A concentration of a detectable compound in the test sample is calculated and used to report a diagnosis state.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 12, 2020Publication date: October 1, 2020Inventors: Aatish Madhiwala, Yogi A. Patel, Nilesh Mehta
