Abstract: Containers and methods protect surgically-removed tissue such as cranial bone flaps for limited times during surgery. In some cases, tissue protected in such a container can be returned to the patient, lessening the need for synthetic, allographic, or xenographic alternatives. A container may include a frame defining a plurality of retention compartments, each retention compartment having an orientation and comprising sidewalls supported by the frame, wherein the sidewalls define a rim for each retention compartment in the plurality of retention compartments, wherein the orientation of a first retention compartment in the plurality of retention compartments differs from the orientation of a second retention compartment in the plurality of retention compartments.

Abstract: A multi-orientation attachment apparatus constructed of molded silicone or another form of elastomeric substance and configured to be selectively coupled to a variety of hospital surfaces. Embodiments of the present disclosure may include two or more pairs of elongated members being configured to be selectively coupled to a circumference, for instance, a hospital bed rail or an IV pole, at a first end and selectively coupled to form a loop at a second end.

Abstract: A hospital bed rail attachment apparatus constructed of molded silicone or another form of elastomeric substance. An embodiment of the present disclosure includes an elongated member having a first appendage, a second appendage, and a central portion extending between the first appendage and the second appendage. The first appendage may include a first protrusion and a first receiving portion being configured to receive the first protrusion. The second appendage may include a second protrusion and a second receiving portion being configured to receive the second protrusion. Embodiments of the present disclosure may include a pair of elongated members being configured to be selectively coupled to a container at a first end and a hospital bed rail at a second end.

Abstract: Devices and methods protect a recipient receiving a medical fluid from a donor such as expressed breast milk from unsafe handling, expiration, and misidentification. For example, each container employs a container tracking device to measure one or more of temperature, duration, and patient identity, and receives a permission code from a receiving computer based thereon. The permission code directs the container tracking device to provide an appropriate alert, thereby informing medical personnel whether to administer the medical fluid from a given container to the recipient. Optionally, a medical fluid supply can be managed by identifying those containers having the shortest remaining shelf life, in certain cases.

Abstract: An IV pole attachment apparatus includes an attachment portion, a first appendage, a second appendage, a receiving portion, protrusions, and an appendage connection portion. The IV pole attachment apparatus is constructed of silicone or another form of elastomeric substance. One end of IV pole attachment apparatus is a ring-shaped attachment portion. The attachment portion is seamlessly molded to the appendage connection portion. Appendage connection portion is seamlessly connected to the first appendage and the second appendage. The first appendage contains three spaced protrusions molded in a linear consecutive arrangement into the appendage. The first appendage is pulled through the receiving portion. The greater diameter of the protrusions keeps them from easily passing back thorough the aperture of the receiving portion and allows for a buckling action that secures the IV pole attachment apparatus to an IV pole.
