Abstract From the Canadian patent

A method for measuring temperature and of adjusting for temperature sensitivity of a medical device having a position sensor comprises the steps of providing a medical device having a position sensor and measuring voltage at the position sensor. A resistance value is then determined from the measured voltage and a temperature value at the position sensor is determined based on the resistance value. The temperature value is determined using the position sensor. Accordingly, temperature is directly measured and monitored using the position sensor itself. Additionally a sensitivity is determined at the position sensor based on the temperature. Location information from the position sensor is …

Why it's free to use

  • Filed June 13, 2002 and granted December 20, 2011. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended June 13, 2022.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by June 13, 2024.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
