Patent number: 12029500Abstract: The invention refers to a system (100) for affecting a subject and a method for operating the system comprising a medical device like a biopsy gun (130) set in a first state in which it is not able to affect the subject based on a trigger signal or in a second state in which it is able to affect the subject based on the trigger signal, wherein the state is set based on a provided location of the medical device, i.e., for instance, is set based on the distance of the medical device to a target region. The location of the medical device is provided by a location providing unit (140) comprising, for instance, an imaging unit like an ultrasound system (142). Thus, unintended, possible dangerous injuries of the patient are prevented and the safety of the patient during the interventional procedure is increased.Type: GrantFiled: May 5, 2019Date of Patent: July 9, 2024Assignee: KONINKLIJKE PHILIPS N.V.Inventors: Pieter Jan Van Der Zaag, Christiaan Varekamp, Bernardus Hendrikus Wilhelmus Hendriks, John Pedersen

Patent number: 10841822Abstract: A communication method and device are described. In the communication method, a quality indicator value associated with the first communication protocol is calculated based on a signal characteristic of first communication protocol. A quality indicator value associated with the first communication protocol is determined based on a signal characteristic of the first communication protocol. Further, a gap time is calculated which represents the time until a next communication gap resulting from a first communication via the first communication protocol and second communication via a second communication protocol. A quality report value can be calculated based on the quality indicator value and a comparison of the gap time and a reporting time threshold value. Further, a quality report can be generated based on the quality report value.Type: GrantFiled: December 23, 2015Date of Patent: November 17, 2020Assignee: Intel IP CorporationInventors: Jakob Buthler, John Pedersen

Patent number: 10733267Abstract: One example a surgical data control system. A wireless data receiver receives surgical device data that is wirelessly transmitted from surgical instruments, medicine administering equipment, and energy delivery equipment during a surgical procedure. The surgical device data is stored in a memory system along with surgeon data, patient data, and environment data associated with the surgical environment in which the surgical procedure is performed. A report generator generates an aggregated surgical data set characterizing a relationship between the surgical device data, the surgeon data, the patient data, and the environment data. The report generator thus generates a surgical dashboard report comprising the aggregated surgical data set in a predetermined data format. The surgical data control system can transmit the surgical dashboard report to at least one remote device via a network upon conclusion of the surgical procedure.Type: GrantFiled: February 29, 2016Date of Patent: August 4, 2020Assignee: SURGICAL BLACK BOX LLCInventor: John Pedersen

Patent number: 10232528Abstract: A method of making a longitudinal reinforcing structure for a wind turbine blade. The method comprises a) providing an elongate master strip (62) of reinforcing material having substantially flat first and second surfaces, the distance between the first and second surfaces defining the thickness of the master strip; and b) dividing the master strip transversely to form a first strip and a shorter master strip, the respective strips being arranged end to end such that a trailing end of the first strip is located adjacent a new leading end of the master strip. The step of dividing the master strip comprises removing material from a dividing region extending through the entire thickness of the master strip, wherein the dividing region is shaped such that a chamfer (19c) at the trailing end (19b) of the first strip is created and a chamfer (63a) at the new leading end (63) of the master strip is created when the master strip is divided.Type: GrantFiled: November 10, 2014Date of Patent: March 19, 2019Assignee: Vestas Wind Systems A/SInventors: Christopher Boon, John Pedersen
