Appl. No.:

09/677534

Inventors:

Mitch Agamohamadi - Orange CA
Alfredo M. Choperena - San Juan Capistrano CA
Anthony Lemus - Yorba Linda CA

Assignee:

Johnson Johnson - New Brunswick NJ

International Classification:

A61L 200

US Classification:

422 22, 422 3, 422 28, 422 29, 422 62, 422292, 422906

Abstract:

The present invention provides a sterilization system that includes a low frequency power feedback control system for controllably adjusting a power applied to a low frequency plasma within a vacuum chamber of the sterilization system to remove gas or vapor species from the article. The power has a frequency of from 0 to approximately 200 kHz. The low frequency power feedback control system includes a power monitor adapted to produce a first signal indicative of the power applied to the low frequency plasma within the vacuum chamber. The low frequency power feedback control system further includes a power control module adapted to produce a second signal in response to the first signal from the power monitor, and a power controller adapted to adjust, in response to the second signal, the power applied to the low frequency plasma to maintain a substantially stable average power applied to the low frequency plasma while the article is being processed.

Abstract:

A sterilization system applies power to a plasma within a chamber to remove gas or vapor species from an article. The sterilization system includes a power feedback control system for controlling the power applied to the plasma. The power feedback control system includes a current monitor adapted to produce a first signal indicative of a current applied to the plasma within the chamber. The power feedback control system further includes a voltage monitor adapted to produce a second signal indicative of a voltage applied to the plasma within the chamber. The power feedback control system further includes a power control module comprising a programmable digital signal processor. The digital signal processor is adapted to receive and process the first signal and the second signal by multiplying the current and the voltage and producing a third signal indicative of the product of the current and the voltage. The power feedback control system further includes a plasma generator coupled to the power control module and adapted to adjust, in response to the third signal, the power applied to the plasma within the chamber.

Abstract:

A sterilization system and method applies low frequency power to a plasma within a vacuum chamber to remove gas or vapor species from an article. The sterilization system includes a switching module adapted to pulsate the low frequency power applied to the plasma and a low frequency power feedback control system for controllably adjusting the low frequency power applied to the plasma. A power monitor is adapted to produce a first signal indicative of the low frequency power applied to the plasma within the vacuum chamber. A power control module is adapted to produce a second signal in response to the first signal from the power monitor, and a power controller is adapted to adjust, in response to the second signal, the low frequency power applied to the plasma to maintain a substantially stable average low frequency power applied to the plasma while the article is being processed.

International Classification:

B01J019/08
A61L002/00

US Classification:

42218629, 422 22

Abstract:

The present invention provides a power feedback control system for controllably maintaining a predetermined average power value of a power applied to a plasma of a sterilization system. The power has a frequency of from 0 to approximately 200 kHz. The power feedback control system includes a power monitor including a current monitor and a voltage monitor. The current monitor is adapted to produce a first signal indicative of a current applied to the plasma. The voltage monitor is adapted to produce a second signal indicative of a voltage applied to the plasma. The power monitor is adapted to produce a third signal in response to the first signal and second signal. The third signal is indicative of the power applied to the plasma. The power feedback control system further includes a power control module adapted to produce a fourth signal in response to the third signal from the power monitor and to a reference signal corresponding to the predetermined average power value. The power feedback control system further includes a power controller adapted to adjust, in response to the fourth signal, the power applied to the plasma to maintain the predetermined average power value of the power applied to the plasma.

International Classification:

A61N 1/36

US Classification:

607 48

Abstract:

A method of assessing the effectiveness of muscle treatment is provided that includes a controller generating a control signal for transmission to an energy generator, delivering energy from the energy generator to a stimulation pad for purposes of providing muscle therapy, and measuring at least one muscle metric value reflective of the healing status of the muscle and comparing that value to a pre-established corollary between such muscle metric values and corresponding healing status for differing demographics, whereby the user may determine whether to continue muscle therapy or not.
