Publication number: 20230211152Abstract: A kit comprises a device (1) for electrotherapy and/or electrophysiology and a delivery system and method for the device. The device (1) includes a lead (2) and a paddle (5) comprising at least one electrode (8), the paddle (5) being reconfigurable between an operative configuration and a transport configuration of smaller transverse extent. The delivery system comprises a flexible, hollow outer sheath (28) and a hollow delivery sheath (100) for receiving at least the paddle (5) of the device (1) in the transport configuration. The delivery sheath (100) may be inserted into a proximal end of the outer sheath (28) and transported through the outer sheath (28) to deliver the paddle (5) of the device (1) to a distal end of the outer sheath (28), which is located at or directed towards an implantation site in the body (11) of a patient. The delivery sheath (100) protects the paddle (5) during transport and permits enhanced control of the position and orientation of the paddle (5) when it is deployed.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 8, 2022Publication date: July 6, 2023Inventors: Alessandro Antonini, Marco Vidotto, Federica Montrone, Matteo Saini, Omar Caspani, William David Cordova Jimenez, Sergio Malorni, Stuart James Curtis, Brian Flint, Matthew Robert Penny

Publication number: 20100140288Abstract: Apparatus for delivering a fluid, especially for delivering colourants or the like to a premixer stage of plastics forming equipment, for example an injection moulder of extruder is described. The apparatus includes a fluid supply means (4, 200) connected to a reservoir (8, 208) which is arranged to concertina between minimum and maximum volume conditions. The reservoir (208) is connected via pipeline (24) and peristaltic pump (26) to a delivery means which is arranged to deliver the fluid to a desired location. When the fluid supply means (200) is empty, the level of fluid in the reservoir (208) will fall below the level of a capacitance sensor (32) which will sense the presence of air and cause a signal to be output to alert an operator to change fluid supply means (4). The fluid supply means may be changed before the reservoir is empty of fluid and, accordingly, the process may be operated continuously, even during the replacement of a reservoir (4).Type: ApplicationFiled: December 19, 2007Publication date: June 10, 2010Applicant: Novozymes A/SInventors: Brian Stewart Jones, Sergio Malorni, Micheal Alexander Pratt
