  • Patent number: 11666350
    Abstract: Retrieval of material from vessel lumens can be improved by electrically enhancing attachment of the material to the thrombectomy system. The system can include a catheter having a distal portion configured to be positioned adjacent to a thrombus in a blood vessel, an electrode disposed at the distal portion of the catheter, and an interventional element configured to be delivered through a lumen of the catheter. The electrode and the interventional element are each configured to be electrically coupled to an extracorporeal power supply.

  • Publication number: 20230054815
    Abstract: Disclosed embodiments may include another system for prioritizing alerts. The alert prioritization system may include one or more processors and that may store instructions that are configured to cause the system to perform a method for prioritizing alerts. For example, the system may receive a first alert from a first application and determine, using a machine learning model, whether the first alert is similar to a previous alert. The determination may be based on the second alert satisfying a predetermined similarity threshold. When the first alert is similar to the previous alert, the system may associate a previous rating label with the first alert, the previous rating label being associated with the previous alert and transmit the first alert with the previous rating label to one or more user devices for display.

  • Publication number: 20210311442
    Abstract: This disclosure relates to quantum computing systems including a quantum processor that implements one or more operations on multiple qubits and a distributed data processing system programmed to perform calculations to determine control sequences that, when applied to the quantum processor, reduces decoherence, decoherence-induced errors, and control-imperfection-induced errors on the one or more operations on the multiple qubits. A user interface device remote from the distributed data processing system receives from a user of the quantum processor characteristics of the quantum processor including operational constraints and/or desired performance, and sends the characteristics to the data processing system to cause the data processing system to perform the calculations to determine the control sequence based on the characteristics.
