Patent number: 11768835Abstract: A method and system for handling asynchronous data streams in a multi-tenant system. The process includes receiving at least a first stream of data and a second stream of data by a rules engine, determining by pattern matching of the rules engine, whether data in the first stream or data in the second stream meet conditions of a rule defined by a tenant of the multi-tenant system, and implementing by the rules engine the rule including a set of actions to modify data from the second data stream, in response to the data in the first stream matching the conditions the rule.Type: GrantFiled: January 31, 2020Date of Patent: September 26, 2023Assignee: Salesforce, Inc.Inventors: Alexander Oscherov, Victor Spivak, Scott Roderick Young, Rohit Deshpande, Nikita Mundhada

Patent number: 8805481Abstract: The invention provides a non-invasive system and method for treatment of the heart. In a first aspect, a method for treatment of an anatomical site related to arrhythmogenesis of a heart of a patient comprises creating a target shape encompassing the anatomical site, directing particle beam radiation or x-ray radiation from outside the patient toward the target shape wherein one or more doses of radiation ablates the target shape and disregarding at least one orientation of cardiac motion while creating the target shape or directing the particle beam or both.Type: GrantFiled: September 14, 2012Date of Patent: August 12, 2014Assignee: CyberHeart, Inc.Inventors: Thilaka Sumanaweera, Patrick Maguire, Roderick A.

Patent number: 6840951Abstract: A flexible, fluid-tight envelope provides access for a hand and surgical instruments through a body tissue incision while maintaining insufflation pressure or a pneumoperitoneum within the body. The envelope is transparent and has an interior volume with opposite proximal and distal ends. A first opening in the envelope at the proximal end adjoins the incision in the body tissue and is secured and sealed to the body tissue. The second opening at the envelope distal end is provided with a closure member that seals closed the second opening on itself or around the forearm of a surgeon or a surgical instrument inserted into the interior volume of the envelope.Type: GrantFiled: October 23, 2001Date of Patent: January 11, 2005Assignee: Etheicon Endo-Surgery, Inc.Inventors: Roger A. de la Torre, James Stephen Scott, George D. Hermann, Thomas A. Howell, James E. Jervis, Kenneth H. Mollenauer, Roderick A. Young

Patent number: 6371910Abstract: An inflatable manipulator for organ manipulation during surgery is disclosed. The system typically includes an inflatable balloon connected to an infusion source where the balloon is either coupled to a relatively rigid platform or fitted with a positioning structure such as a pocket. In open heart surgery, the platform is used to position and stabilize the balloon under the heart. In minimally invasive surgery, the balloon fitted with the pocket and can be rolled into a narrow configuration and inserted through a small incision using an insertion device. The insertion device can then be removed once the manipulator is in position. In use, the balloon of the manipulator is inflated by the infusion source thereby elevating and tilting the organ to the desired position for surgical access. Systems including multiple chamber manipulators each with a separate infusion source are also disclosed, as are combined methods for cooling organs during surgery and for using the manipulators to separate adhesions.Type: GrantFiled: November 10, 1999Date of Patent: April 16, 2002Assignee: General Surgical Innovations, Inc.Inventors: Hans J. Zwart, Lawrence R. Tyler, Thomas J. Palermo, Kevin Van Bladel, Roderick A. Young, James E. Jervis

Patent number: 5984943Abstract: A combination tissue dissector and long term expander is disclosed for use in plastic surgery applications and other applications where it is desirable to dissect a tissue pocket and serially expand the dissected pocket through long term tissue expansion. The combination device performs the separate functions of dissection and long term expansion in a single balloon package. In an exemplary embodiment, three sheets of substantially inelastic material are bonded together at their outer margins to form two discrete inflatable chambers. The lower inflatable chamber defined by the middle and lower balloon sheets is further welded together at various points over the sheet's surface area to create a semi-rigid base portion which provides a flat well-defined footprint for the balloon. The semi-rigid base prevents further enlargement of the tissue pocket at the margins when the device is utilized as a tissue expander.Type: GrantFiled: October 16, 1998Date of Patent: November 16, 1999Assignee: General Surgical Innovations, Inc.Inventor: Roderick A.
