Abstract: The invention relates to systems and methods for the diagnosis, amelioration, and treatment of ischemic tissues in patients caused by and/or resulting from diminished microvascular blood flow. Patients suffering from ischemic tissue conditions can be categorized into specific subsets that are deemed to have a potential to respond to therapy. In particular, the invention includes various therapies involving stimulation of angiogenesis, vasculogenesis, arteriogenesis and/or neovascularization so as to increase perfusion of various tissues.

Abstract: Methods for the diagnosis and treatment of ischemic spinal conditions, degenerative disc disease, back pain and/or other tissue pathologies. Patients with ischemic spine disease can be categorized into subsets that are deemed to have potential to respond to therapy. In particular, therapies are disclosed which involve stimulation of neovascularization so as to increase perfusion of spinal and other anatomies.

Abstract: The invention relates to methods for the diagnosis, amelioration, and treatment of back pain, particularly lumbar back pain, in particular, back pain caused by muscular abnormalities, vertebral body osteoporosis, and disc degeneration. Patients with back pain are categorized into specific subsets that are deemed to have potential to respond to therapy. In particular, the invention includes a therapy involving stimulation of neovascularization so as to increase perfusion of various spine compartments.

Abstract: A cordless telephone arranged for operation in a frequency hopping system conserves battery power in a handset unit when this unit is located remote from an associated base unit and in a standby state. While in this standby state, the handset unit resides in a low power monitoring mode and monitors a channel pseudo-randomly selected from a plurality of available channels in the frequency hopping band for receipt of an initialization signal from the associated base unit. The base unit similarly monitors this selected one of the channels for receipt of this initialization signal from the handset unit. Should ongoing communications between the base unit and the handset unit be inadvertently interrupted, the cordless telephone quickly re-establishes communications in the frequency hopping system through an initialization process executed by both the handset unit and the base unit.

Abstract: A cordless telephone arranged for operation in a frequency hopping system automatically modifies a frequency hopping sequence in the presence of interference detected on its in-use communication channels. Substitute alternative communication channels are identified and then substituted for those communication channels experiencing the interference without disruption of communications between a handset unit in the cordless telephone and its associated base unit.
