Abstract: An autonomous unmanned road vehicle and how it can be used to make deliveries. The unmanned vehicle is capable of operating autonomously on paved roadways. The vehicle has a control system for autonomous driving and a perception system for detecting objects in its surroundings. The vehicle also has one or more cargo compartments for carrying the delivery items. The vehicle may have a flashing light beacon to increase the conspicuousness of the vehicle. In consideration that the vehicle does not carry passengers, the size and/or motor power of the vehicle may be reduced as compared to conventional passenger vehicles.

Abstract: A head-worn image display apparatus that comprises a non-immersive image display assembly that receives images from a stereoscopic video camera module. The image display assembly comprises a miniature display component for generating the images for display. The image display assembly may work by an optical relay system. The head-worn image display apparatus could be used in a variety of different settings. One particular application is for performing medical procedures such as microsurgery. The stereoscopic video camera module may have optical magnification capability (e.g. such as in a surgical microscope) to provide a magnified view of the surgical field.

Abstract: Biliary diversion catheters for diverting bile fluid from a part of the patient's biliary tree to the patient's distal small intestine. The catheter comprises a system of interconnected or interconnectable tubes: a biliary tube segment, an intestinal (e.g. ileal or jejunal) tube segment, and a flush tube segment. The biliary diversion catheter is designed such that bile fluid flows into the biliary tube segment and is shunted into the distal small intestine via the intestinal tube segment. The flush tube segment is used to infuse flush fluid into the catheter (e.g. to clear out any debris within the tube system of the catheter). The biliary tube segment and the intestinal tube segment may together form a drainage tube or an anastomotic component. The flush tube segment and the intestinal tube segment may together form a transabdominal tube.

Abstract: Electrical neurostimulation leads for use in craniofacial peripheral nerve neurostimulation (e.g. occipital neurostimulation). Paddle leads, lead wires, lead wire anchors, tools, or other hardware can be designed for implantation in the craniofacial region. This can address problems of electrical neurostimulation in the craniofacial region such as lead migration, hardware breakage, patient discomfort, or other problems.

Abstract: A transdermal patch comprising (2R,6R)-hydroxynorketamine or a conjugate thereof. The active agent may be in its free base form. The transdermal patch may comprise a drug-containing layer comprising the active agent and a carrier material. The transdermal patch may comprise an adhesive. Examples of adhesive materials that could be used include pressure-sensitive acrylic adhesives, pressure-sensitive silicone adhesives, or other type of pressure-sensitive adhesive.

Abstract: Use of near-infrared fluorescence imaging in performing an endoscopic surgery, such as laparoscopic cholecystectomy. A composite video image of the surgical field (e.g. the biliary anatomy) is shown on a display screen. The composite video image combines a visible color image and a fluorescence image of the surgical field. Using various techniques, selective fluorescence imaging of a particular area of interest in the surgical field is made possible. For example, in a cholecystectomy procedure, the biliary ducts may be the particular area of interest for the selective fluorescence imaging.

Abstract: Using telemedicine to give surgeons real-time intra-operative technical assistance from a remotely-located technical assistant on the use of a surgical product. An operating room (OR)-located computer system is in network communication with a remote-located computer system. The OR-located computer system has a display screen for displaying visual media that provides guidance about the use of the surgical product. A technical assistant at the remote assistance site can remotely control the presentation of the visual media.
