Patent number: 8499009Abstract: A system and method for transferring digital goods facilitates bulk upload of file images to a central repository. The software gets a File ID and a path to each file image to be uploaded from a list, typically an XML file, of input attributes. After successful verification, the file image is uploaded to the central repository and linked with a corresponding metadata object. Each metadata object contains attributes that describe the corresponding file image. Although file attributes may be defined when the metadata object is created, the software determines file image attributes as the file image is being uploaded and records them in the metadata object. File images are either uploaded from a server, typically an FTP server, having been placed there by the goods vendor; or the file images can be uploaded directly from a computer operated by the vendor.Type: GrantFiled: February 13, 2012Date of Patent: July 30, 2013Assignee: Flexera Software LLCInventors: James Brentano, Toby Pieber, Paul Martinelli, Brad Thompson, Richard Northing

Patent number: 8473074Abstract: A lead identification system for tracking a plurality of neurostimulation leads during implantation in a patient, and a method of using the same. The lead identification system includes a plurality of lead indicators each adapted to attach to one of a plurality of epidural needles to identify the leads. At least one clip adapted to releasably attach to proximal ends of the leads is provided with corresponding lead indicators. The trial cable for conducting trial stimulation includes connectors with corresponding lead indicators. A plurality of lead indicator stylets are provided for insertion into lumens at the proximal ends of the leads. The pulse generator also has connectors with corresponding lead indicators. The various lead indicators permit a surgeon to track a particular lead to the corresponding connectors on the pulse generator.Type: GrantFiled: August 31, 2011Date of Patent: June 25, 2013Assignee: Greatbatch Ltd.Inventors: Richard North, Scott Drees, John Swoyer, Lawrence Kane, Jesse Geroy, Shahn Sage, Elliot Bridgeman, James Finley, Terry Daglow
