  • Publication number: 20230172519
    Abstract: A method includes receiving a bipolar signal sensed by a pair of electrodes at a location in a heart of a patient. One or more electrocardiogram (ECG) signals are received, sensed by body-surface electrodes attached to the patient. Two or more successive QRS complexes are identified in the bipolar signal. One or more activations are detected in the bipolar signal, which occur within a window-of-interest that begins at least a given time with respect to the identified QRS complexes. The detected activations are checked whether they are late potentials, by verifying whether (i) the activations do not coincide with a predefined event observed in the ECG signals, and (ii) the activations are repeatable in the successive QRS complexes. In response to deciding that at least one of the detected activations is a late potential, the latest of the at least one of the late potentials is visualized to a user.

  • Publication number: 20230132585
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel liquid-liquid extraction process of a bio-oil obtained by an improved thermochemical process. This extraction process gives rise to two distinct phases: an organic phase, with bio-oil of energetic added value, and an aqueous phase, where the following can be obtained by chemical compounds with added value: lactic acid, formic acid, hydroxymethylfurfural, furfural, levulinic acid, monosaccharides, disaccharides and compounds with antioxidant properties, among others.

  • Publication number: 20180037009
    Abstract: Wood derived multilayer glued or laminated product having an integrated electric circuit, comprising a paper layer and conducting elements of conductive ink deposited on said paper layer, said elements being suitable for forming an electric circuit and said paper layer has a rugosity inferior to 60 ?m. The paper layer may be of kraft paper. The product may comprise one or more additional kraft paper layers, in particular having a hole for receiving electric components such that the top surface of product remains flat. The product may include a fibreboard substrate of MDF. The paper layer may be a decorative paper layer glued with the circuit facing the substrate. The manufacture process comprises depositing conductive ink elements on a paper layer having rugosity inferior to 60 ?m for forming an electric circuit; and incorporating, by gluing or laminating, said paper layer into the multilayer product.
