Abstract: There is disclosed system for oxygenating a patient in relation to anaesthesia using high flow gas delivery. The system has a flow source, and a controller for determining oxygenation requirements of the patient before or during anaesthesia. A method of oxygenating a patient in relation to anaesthesia using high flow gas delivery is also disclosed. The method determines oxygenation requirements of the patient before or during anaesthesia.

Abstract: A percussion massager feature describe herein provides for locking the control display through the touchscreen of the percussion massager to ensure accidental bumps to the display do not disrupt treatment.

Abstract: A selectable impact tip system for percussion massagers that allows users to select and interchange tips based on user preference and targeted customization for comfort, muscle density, muscle soreness, body part and clinical application.

Abstract: A percussive massaging device has a base which includes a tool receiver and a piston for providing percussive action to a massage tool. The massage tool includes an attachment for selectively attaching to the tool receiver using one of a key and keyway system and a magnetic system. The attachment post further includes a press-fit seal or a magnetic mechanism for further securing the attachment post to the tool receiver. The massage tool further includes a tool head which may be non-rotating or is capable of rotating in one or more directions during use while simultaneously providing a percussive massage to a user.

Abstract: A selectable impact tip system for use with a percussion massager includes multiple flexible and interchangeable massage tips having variable internal geometries. The variable internal geometries of the flexible and interchangeable tips cause different impact forces during use when used with the reciprocating piston and the removable and hollow shaft of the percussion massager.

Abstract: Provided herein are processes for preparing 2-(4-chlorophenyl)-N-((2-(2,6-dioxopiperidin-3-yl)-1-oxoisoindolin-5-yl)methyl)-2,2-difluoroacetamide.

Abstract: An adjustable stroke percussion massage device includes a stroke arm having a first end connected to a percussion massage head. A pin extends outward at a second end of the stroke arm. A cam has a cam slot formed into the cam such that the pin fits into the cam slot. The cam slot has a length, where the pin is movable from a first end of the cam slot to a second end of the cam slot, where the pin is a first distance from a rotation axis of the cam when positioned at the first end of the cam slot, and the pin is a second distance from the rotation axis of the cam when positioned at the second end of the cam slot. A motor is operable to rotate the cam about the rotation axis, moving the stroke arm along a vibration axis.

Abstract: Catalyst compositions useful in the production of low or no amine emission flexible polyurethane foam as well as rigid insulating polyurethane foam produced with systems containing polyether, polyester, Mannich polyols as well as organic-halogen containing flame retardants and blowing agents, are disclosed. The catalysts are characterized by the presence of amine compositions containing unsaturated aliphatic substituent together with secondary hydroxyl groups able to bind to polyurethane polymers and render a low odor and no or low amine emissions finished product.

Abstract: A band for information storage includes an outer mold for attaching the band to a user's wrist, an external housing within the outer mold that includes a hollow upper portion for receiving a first removable component, wherein the first removable component is engraved with information about the user and/or includes an alarm alert or emergency call button; and an internal housing rotatably attached to the external housing and fitted therein for receiving a second removable component, wherein the second removable component includes a portable memory device.

Abstract: A system and method is provided for a computer-aided telephone interview system that includes a computer server operatively connected to an interviewer over a global telecommunications network, where the server is configured to transmit sound file prompts that can include pre-recorded questions and statements to a person being interviewed over a telephone network under the control of the interviewer in response to answers provided by the person being interviewed.

Abstract: A customizable, portable identification and memory device includes a housing having a front sleeve housing member with a sleeve that receives a slideable printable card member and an electronic memory device, such as a universal serial bus (USB) flash drive, pivoted to the housing that is rotatable between a stored position of the memory device within a recess of the housing and one or more deployed positions of the memory device, for example, at 90 degrees and 180 degrees, in which a connector portion of the memory device is exposed for connection to a port of a computing device. The slideable printable card member can be imprinted with text and/or graphics, such as personal identification information and/or insurance information for a user and/or can be imprinted with allergies, medications, and emergency contact information for the user, and the memory device can store voluminous information, such as a personal health record (PHR) for a user.

Abstract: A composite selector fork arrangement adapted to cooperate with a selector shaft to resist rotational and translational movement relative to the selector shaft. The arrangement also being adapted to cooperate with a selector sleeve to effect translational movement of the selector sleeve. The arrangement including a first and second metallic portion. The first metallic portion being arranged to impart stiffness to the fork arrangement in a direction generally in line with the axial extent of a selector shaft and the second metallic portion being arranged to impart stiffness to the fork arrangement in a direction generally transverse to the axial extent of a selector shaft. The arrangement including a non-metallic portion being arranged to at least partially surround the first and second portions, and in which, in use, the non-metallic portion cooperates with a selector shaft to assist in resisting rotational movement of the selector fork arrangement relative to the selector shaft.
