Abstract: An infant simulator capable of emulating the care requirements of an infant and recording the quality ot care and responsiveness of a person caring for the infant simulator and/or signaling the person caring for the infant simulator when care is required. The infant simulator is capable of sensing the unacceptable environmental conditions of exposure to direct sunlight and exposure to temperature extremes and to which the infant simulator is subjected. The infant simulator is also programmed with the ancillary features of multiple behavior modes based upon the historic level of care experienced by the infant, and/or the health of the infant, and perceptibly different demand and distress signals for each type of environmental event.

The alerting means notifies the individual a determined number of times over a given period in an apparent random manner at a frequency of 10-12 Hz.

Abstract: A self-adhesive napkin for releasably attaching to a beverage container having a plurality of openings formed along an edge of the napkin and a pressure sensitive, single-sided adhesive tape applied to the edge of the outer surface of the napkin containing the plurality of openings. The adhesive surface of the adhesive tape along one edge of the napkin is protected from inadvertent adherence by way of the recesses formed in the napkin from the plurality of openings. Further, for napkins in a uniformly oriented stack conformation, the non-adhesive surface of the adhesive tape functions as a release layer. Application of pressure to the adhesive tape collapses the adhesive surface into and through the plurality of openings for releasably attaching to a target surface.

Abstract: A wound treatment system includes a vessel that is sized to receive a human limb. The vessel includes a chamber with an opening leading into the chamber. A removable liner lines the chamber of the vessel and forms a treatment zone. A humidifier in fluid communication with the treatment zone humidifies a solution of water and antibacterial agent. An oxygen source is in fluid communication with the treatment zone. A speaker is coupled to the vessel and emits low frequency sound waves to the chamber. A first array of light emitting diodes that emits ultraviolet light is coupled to the vessel near the opening of the treatment chamber. A second array of light emitting diodes that emits pulsed light into the chamber is coupled to the chamber. The system also includes a control panel.
