Abstract: This invention concerns a novel practical application of using secured electronic form of medical record keeping in protecting and securing patient privacy specifically and only in regards to information pertaining to patients' pacemaker and or icd data or interrogation record. After system and technology approval by the Office of Civil Rights, Department of Health and Human Services and Health IT., patients' consents will allow securing information regarding their pacemaker and icd interrogation. The PACEMAKER ICD ELECTRONIC HEALTH RECORD www.pacemakeremr.com when implemented will allow secured but easy access to this specific (pacemaker icd data or interrogation data) health information as allowed by the patient, especially when they travel from one facility to another or from one provider to another. It will also prevent any possible unnecessary checking of the instrument since the information will be accessible online.

Abstract: Left Ventricular Outflow Device (LVODe) is a medical apparatus implanted to enable normal flow from the left ventricle to the aorta in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a congenital disease of the heart with heterogenic genetic phenotypes that result in obstructed flow to the aorta. Echocardiography characterizes HCM as having left ventricular wall thickness greater than 25 mm, asymmetric hypertrophy, left ventricular outflow obstruction, systolic anterior motion of the mitral valve. Patients present with sudden death, perilous arrhythmias, anginal symptoms, and exertional dyspnea. Treatments used for HCM are medical therapy, surgical myectomy and alcohol septal ablation; which are not without adverse effects. In addition, the structural variation of HCM makes no one particular treatment the magic bullet. Hence the concept of LVODe: a method to modulate the abnormal dynamic flow obstruction to the aorta. The success of the device will hinge on its clinical trials or outcomes.

Abstract: Shoulder pain is a common problem encountered in many medical practices. There is a protean source of such pain including adhesive capsulities, rotator cuff injuries, fractures, muscle sprains and strains. In all of these; pain is worsened by any weight-bearing on the affected shoulder during the acute or recovery phase of the injury. In some cases, shoulder pain results exclusively from frequent sleeping on one shoulder. Hence, the Ortho Shoulder Ball which as described is a tennis size ball attached to a Velcro strap and worn around the shoulder at night to prevent one from bearing weight on the affected shoulder while sleeping. The ball is solid but light-weight 6.5 cm and 60 g affixed to the Velcro strap and all materials skin-friendly and do not present any health hazards to the strap area except in case of possible allergic reactions. The Ortho Shoulder Ball will be able to prevent shoulder pain by preventing weight bearing when affected patients are sleeping at night; which is not uncommon.

Abstract: The pregnant passenger and fetus have many intrinsic combinations of risk factors making them vulnerable to pregnancy loss and possible death during vehicle accidents. In most cases of fetal loss in motor vehicle accidents the cause was placenta abruption. It takes very little changes in force for the placental tissues to separate. Seat belt in the pelvis area is a suspicious culprit even though it will take highly complex computer and experimental models to substantiate this. The fact of traditional seat belts in any close proximity of the pregnancy leaves us to question if it is paradoxically not the cause such high restraining pressures on the pregnancy. Hence, the MOMS SEAT is based on the concept of upper body safety restraining in transport of pregnant women, instead of current abdominal and pelvis restraining which can cause pregnancy loss.

Abstract: A passenger seat and safety belt system in accordance with the principles of the invention provides a comfortable seat having two straps that adjustably and safely restrain the passenger. A restraining mechanism, for example a buckle, may cross over the chest just above the nipple line connecting the two straps. This may provide a comfortable seat for the mother and safe protection for both her and the fetus. The seat may include an attaching mechanism that securely fastens it to the seatbelts of a vehicle.
