Abstract: A system is provided for transfer of digital resources using an integrated resource platform. In particular, the system may comprise a networked platform that may be accessible by one or more users to access digital resources (e.g., non-fungible tokens stored on a distributed register). The platform may further display a graphical user interface through which the user may take various actions with respect to such digital resources, including the ability to view metadata associated with the resources or to transfer the resources. In this regard, the platform may integrate multiple different types of distributed registers and/or legacy computing systems such that the user may access the digital resources along with the functions associated therewith.

Abstract: Rotational atherectomy devices and systems can remove or reduce stenotic lesions in blood vessels by rotating one or more abrasive elements within the vessel. The abrasive elements can be attached to a distal portion of an elongate flexible drive shaft that extends from a handle assembly that includes a driver for rotating the drive shaft. In particular implementations, individual abrasive elements are attached to the drive shaft at differing radial angles in comparison to each other (e.g., configured in a helical array). The centers of mass of the abrasive elements can define a path that fully or partially spirals around the drive shaft. In some embodiments, a distal stability element with a center of mass aligned with the longitudinal axis is fixedly mounted to the drive shaft.

Abstract: Rotational atherectomy devices and systems can remove or reduce stenotic lesions in blood vessels by rotating one or more abrasive elements within the vessel. The abrasive elements are attached to a distal portion of an elongate flexible drive shaft that extends from a handle assembly that includes a driver for rotating the drive shaft. In particular implementations, individual abrasive elements are attached to the drive shaft at differing radial angles in comparison to each other (e.g., configured in a helical array). The centers of mass of the abrasive elements can define a path that spirals around the drive shaft in a direction that is opposite to the wind direction of filars of the drive shaft, and opposite to the direction of rotation. In some embodiments, a concentric abrasive tip member is affixed to and extends distally from a distal-most end of the drive shaft.

Abstract: Rotational atherectomy devices and systems can remove or reduce stenotic lesions in implanted grafts by rotating one or more abrasive elements within the graft. The abrasive elements can be attached to a distal portion of an elongate flexible drive shaft that extends from a handle assembly that includes a driver for rotating the drive shaft. In particular implementations, individual abrasive elements are attached to the drive shaft at differing radial angles in comparison to each other (e.g., configured in a helical array).
