  • Patent number: 10780020
    Abstract: Systems and apparatuses related to the field of cardiac resuscitation, and in particular to devices for assisting rescuers in the administration of cardio-pulmonary resuscitation (CPR) are described herein. The system includes an adhesive pad configured to be adhered to at least a portion of a patient's chest, a sensor configured to be placed on the patient's chest and to measure at least one chest compression parameter during CPR treatment, and a landing pad having a coupling surface at least partially surrounding the sensor and configured for maintaining adherence with an active compression decompression device, the adherence sufficient to transfer decompression force between the active compression decompression device and the patient's chest during the CPR treatment.

  • Patent number: 9980740
    Abstract: A system for treating tissue includes a device including a first member and a second member arranged to move relative to the first member to treat tissue. The system also includes a processor configured to automatically control movement of the second member relative to the first member using position control methodology. A method of treating tissue includes providing a device having a first member and a second member arranged to move relative to the first member, moving the second member relative to the first member, and automatically controlling the movement of the second member using position control methodology.

  • Patent number: 6214412
    Abstract: A system and method distribute a resin disposed between a top substrate and a bottom substrate. Each substrate has a center hole, and the top and bottom substrates and the resin define an interior region. A top substrate assembly forms a seal over the center hole of the top substrate and creates a vacuum at the interior region. A bottom substrate assembly receives the top and bottom substrates with the resin disposed in-between. A spinning assembly causes the top and bottom substrates to spin according to a predetermined spin profile.

  • Patent number: 6106657
    Abstract: A system and method dispense resin between substrates. A top substrate device holds a top substrate concave up. A bottom substrate device holds a bottom substrate concave down. A resin dispensing device has a needle and dispenses a trajectory of resin defined by an arc having a tangent that touches a tangent of a concave-up-shaped top substrate. The top substrate device may be arranged to include a dampening mechanism to cause a dampened release of the top substrate. Moreover, the top substrate device may be arranged to hold a top substrate so that the top substrate has a continuous concave-up shape extending from a center portion of the top substrate to its outer diameter, and the bottom substrate device may be arranged to hold a bottom substrate so that the bottom substrate has a continuous concave-down shape extending from a center portion of the bottom substrate to its outer diameter.
