Abstract: Apparatus, for use at a valve of a heart of a subject, includes a first catheter, a second catheter, and a translation element. The translation element is connected to, and operatively joins, the distal ends of the first catheter and the second catheter. The translation element is operable to translate the distal ends laterally with respect to each other to transition the apparatus between (i) a first state in which the distal ends are held next to each other for transluminal advancement to the heart, and (ii) a second state in which the distal ends are spaced apart from each other for positioning at a first location on the annulus and a second location on the annulus, respectively. The apparatus is configured to, while in the second state, from the distal ends, anchor a first tissue anchor at the first location, and a second tissue anchor at the second location.

Abstract: An automated personal safety system and method for detecting and communicating unsafe temperature conditions in an automobile is disclosed. The system/method includes a device comprising a temperature sensing unit that senses human body temperature and ambient temperature. A controller in the device detects changes between a programmed threshold temperature and sensed temperatures. When in an automobile, the device communicates unsafe conditions to an automobile electronics panel that reacts accordingly to alleviate the unsafe conditions before any support arrives to the automobile. The temperature data is also constantly monitored by a third party at a remote location. Another embodiment includes a system to detect device malfunctioning in real time and react accordingly to provide assistance.

Abstract: A system to provide safety information to a remote location may include a personal safety device to wirelessly transmit a safety signal, a wireless receiver to receive wireless the safety signal from the personal safety device and a wireless device to receive the signals from the wireless receiver.

Abstract: A graphical and interactive interface system manages risk management information. A secure database stores risk management information that is accessible by authorized access through a network. A graphics interface generates graphic data of the risk management information in response to the authorized access. One or more workflow process terminals connect in network with the database to provide updates to the risk management information. The graphics interface may provide one or more filter functions to manipulate the risk management information for display of graphic data at a computer networked with the graphics interface. The graphic data may include one or more graphical reports. Email may be automatically generated in response to updates to the risk management information. The database may respond to electronically received recommendations regarding a segment of risk management to post the recommendations with the segment of risk management information.
