  • Patent number: 11931055
    Abstract: An actuated telescoping system for navigation within a vascular lumen and thrombectomy of a thrombus. The system includes a tubular catheter member having an open distal end defining a catheter lumen, a vacuum source, a rotational drive system, a flexible shaft having a channel coupled to the rotational drive system for rotational movement in response thereto, and an optional guidewire selectively inserted at least partially within the flexible shaft. The flexible shaft is at least partially disposed within the tubular catheter member configured for uncoupled rotational and translational motion therein and to optionally define a corkscrew motion in response to rotational driving force by the drive system that results in formation of hydrodynamic vortices within the catheter lumen.

  • Patent number: 11531822
    Abstract: A model training service of a provider network may receive content items as training data. For example, the content items may be documents with certain portions labeled as stale. The model training service may train one or more different types of models using those content items (e.g., natural language inference model, paraphrasing detection model, named entity recognition model). The model training service may then provide the model(s) to a content staleness check (CSC) service. The CSC service may receive, from a client, a request that indicates one or more content items to be checked for staleness. The CSC service may process the content items by the model(s) to generate one or more indications of staleness of the content item. The CSC service may generate a response based on the indications of staleness. For example, the CSC service may generate a document with certain portions highlighted as stale content.
