Abstract: A system and method for ensuring safe delivery of items to an event, such as a conference or trade show. The system uses a controlled-access website or app and a program with a database operated by a security coordinator. All prospective attendees are vetted, and after being verified as bona fide attendees who qualify as a reliable exhibitor/shipper, are given access to the database for the purpose of obtaining (by download) a particularized set of coded labels to be applied to a particular item to be shipped. The coded labels are then printed, applied to the items to be shipped and sent to a staging location for screening. At the staging location, the security coordinator scans all coded labels of shipped items when they arrive, and the program compares the scanned data with the data in the database to see if the shipped items are associated with a reliable exhibitor/shipper.

Abstract: An apparatus and method of use for treating carpal tunnel syndrome designed to permit delivery of a sustained release, depot form of a corticosteroid agent at an adequate therapeutic dosage, directly into the center of the carpal tunnel. The apparatus consists of an armboard adapted for receiving and securing a human forearm and hand. In a preferred embodiment, the armboard also includes at least one forearm bracket and at least one wrist bracket having an integrally formed centering pointer and needle guide for delivery of medication into the carpal tunnel. In one embodiment of the method of use, an anesthetic agent and a corticosteroid are delivered by a needle installation directly into the anatomic center of the carpal tunnel in order to produce the desired pharmacological effects.
