Abstract: Modular ventilatory support systems and methods are disclosed in which a user may transition the system between a stationary configuration, an extended range configuration, and a stand-alone configuration. The modular components of the system include a compressor unit, a ventilator which may dock with the compressor unit, and a patient interface which may be connected to either the compressor unit or the ventilator unit. By rearranging these modular components into different configurations, mobility and duration of use may be optimized to fit the present needs. In the stationary configuration, mobility is most restricted, but duration of use is maximized. In the extended range configuration, mobility is enhanced, with duration of use limited by the battery power of the ventilator. In the stand-alone configuration, mobility is maximized, with duration of use limited by battery power of the ventilator and the quantity of an external gas supply.

Abstract: A system for aiding the visual matching of containers having diverse openings with matching lids includes affixing, such as by molding or embossing, geometric planar patterns on the bottom walls of a plurality of rectangular containers having different sized openings and affixing the same geometric patterns to the top wall of the matching lids.

Abstract: Various embodiments relate to ophthalmoscopic devices, systems and methods for viewing the anterior chamber, trabecular meshwork, iris root, scleral spur, and/or related nearby structures in the eye. In some embodiments, devices, systems and/or methods may employ a plurality of gonioscopic optical elements that form a virtual image that can be imaged by a microscope directly in front of a patient (e.g., without tilting the patient's head). Various embodiments described herein may be useful for ophthalmologic diagnoses, treatments, monitoring and/or surgical procedures. Some embodiments include a gonioscopic attachment configured to attach to a conventional gonioscope and redirect light emitted by the gonioscope. Various embodiments described herein can be incorporated into disposable, single-use gonioscopes. Some embodiments include a gonioscopic optical element that is movable with respect to another gonioscopic optical element.

Abstract: A latch assembly for a sliding door includes a latch base having a generally channel-shaped configuration for receiving the stile of a sliding door and a handle pivotally coupled to the latch base having a lift portion facing outward from the door. When the lift portion is pulled, the door stile is released from the latch base and the door is pushed away from the doorjamb by a tab portion of the handle, both actions occurring substantially simultaneously.

Abstract: A portable gift wrapping center includes a storage compartment having a storage area for accommodating rolls of wrapping paper and accessories. A primary lid is hinged to the back wall of the compartment and defines a centrally located shallow storage area for writing paper, cards, etc., with the top surface of the primary lid defining a plurality of orthogonal grooves. A secondary lid, hinged to the primary lid, for enclosing the shallow storage area. A plurality of foldable legs are hinged to the bottom wall of the compartment to allow the table to be raised to a desired height in the deployed position or stored under a conventional bed in the retracted position.
