Abstract: A system comprising an implantable medical device (IMD). The IMD includes a processor fabricated on an integrated circuit chip (IC), a random access memory (RAM) circuit fabricated on the same IC, and a programmable non-volatile memory (PNVM) circuit also fabricated on the same IC.

Abstract: A system and method for selectively treating a ventricular tachycardia based on sensed atrial and ventricular intervals from the patient's heart. A detection window of the ten most recent atrial and ventricular intervals are analyzed for the occurrence of either tachycardia or fibrillation. When a majority of the sensed intervals are satisfied, the apparatus starts a duration time interval. Ventricular intervals and atrial intervals are compare, ventricular interval greater than the atrial interval by a bias factor the system delivers tachycardia therapy to the heart. Alternatively, the method withholds tachycardia therapy to the heart when the atrial rate is classified as atrial fibrillation and the ventricular response is unstable.

Abstract: A carrier structure apparatus for mounting conformal antenna elements to a non-planar mounting surface as part of an antenna array of an airborne vehicle or ground-based system also comprising a seeker section, fairing and guidance processing system. The carrier structure is a rigid and conductive apparatus that is made to conform to the geometric configuration of both the antenna element as well as the mounting surface. The conformal antenna is rigidly mounted to the carrier structure, which is in turn removably affixed to the non-planar mounting surface. With the carrier structure, each antenna element of the array may be individually tested and replaced prior to and after installation in array.

Abstract: An oral nutritional supplement, i.e., a dietary adjunct, for livestock which includes incompatible live microbial cultures, and vitamin and mineral supplements, each separated from the other via multiple encapsulation. The microbial cultures include gastrointestinal bacteria, yeasts or fungi. A method of delivering incompatible compounds in vivo, a method of preparing shelf-stable compositions of incompatible substances, and a system for delivering oral nutritional supplements to livestock are also provided.
