  • Patent number: 11774246
    Abstract: A method comprising: digitally processing orientation measurements provided by each of first and second inertial measurement units, the first and second units being arranged on first and second body members of a person, respectively, according to a predetermined unit arrangement, and the first and second body members being connected by a joint; the measurements are digitally processed such that the computing device at least: computes a length vector of a segment of the first body member based on a first orientation measurement of the first unit; defines a joint axis plane of the joint based on a second orientation measurement of the second unit; and computes a heading rotation value for making the first orientation measurement to be contained within the joint axis plane defined; and the method further comprising digitally modifying the first orientation measurement or the second orientation measurement by applying a rotation at least based on the heading rotation value computed.

  • Patent number: 10638773
    Abstract: A device for inactivating or reducing an amount of biological contaminants in human milk comprises an interior for taking in human milk to be treated in order to inactivate or reduce the amount of biological contaminants, and at least one UV lamp for irradiating the milk being in the interior in order to subject it to the treatment. The treatment is a first function of the device, wherein the device has a second function, the device being capable of fulfilling the first function at the same time as the second function, wherein the second function is one or more of milk expressing, milk collecting, milk storing, milk warming, milk feeding, milk processing and milk handling.

  • Patent number: 10575974
    Abstract: A kit for placing a bypass between two body vessels (R, L) of a patient comprises two catheters (10, 11), two guide wires (30, 31) moveable within one of the catheters (10, 11) each and a bypass element delivery system (52, 53, 8) for holding a bypass element (6, 7). The bypass element delivery system (52, 53, 8) is moveable along the first guide wire (30) and the bypass element delivery system (52, 53, 8) is capable of releasing and setting free the bypass element (6, 7). The kit further comprises an expansible element (40) being capable of connecting with the bypass element delivery system (52, 53, 8), of moving the bypass element delivery system (52, 53, 8) towards the opposite end of the first guide wire (30) and of setting the bypass element delivery system (52, 53, 8) free. The inventive kit enables an atraumatic placement of a bypass.

  • Patent number: 10029024
    Abstract: A system for treating, in particular cleansing, wounds with a fluid jet. The system includes a handpiece with a main body with a front end with an emergence opening for the emergence of the fluid jet. The system furthermore has at least one light-emitting light source, which irradiates aerosols created when cleansing the wound. The system enables wound cleansing with simultaneous decontamination of the aerosols created in the process such that the risk of contamination of the surroundings is reduced and preferably with simultaneously treating the wound with UV light.

  • Patent number: 9925077
    Abstract: The invention relates to a delivery system for delivering a stent (S) into a body vessel of a patient, comprising a flexible catheter tube (3) having a proximal and a distal end for delivering the stent (S) to a predetermined location in the body vessel and a catheter tip (1) having a longitudinal direction, which is disposed at the distal end of the catheter tube (3). The catheter tip (1) has a stent chamber (150) to receive the stent (1). The catheter tip has a first pressure chamber (20, 22). In the catheter tube (3) a first fluid channel (31) extends from the proximal end to the first pressure chamber (20, 22) of the catheter tip (1). The volume of the first pressure chamber (20, 22) can be enlarged by delivering a first fluid from the first fluid channel (31) to the first pressure chamber (20, 22), such that the stent (S) is released from the stent chamber (150) at the predetermined location in the body vessel.
