Abstract: A surgical instrument for at least partial occlusion of the uterus blood vessels comprising two opposing jaws with scissor-type handles and a latching mechanism. Each jaw has a straight member 1 and a straight member 2 connected with an angle 30-45 degrees. Each said member 1 has a tubular cover. Each member 2 is integrated with the scissor-type handle. Each jaw has an inner side and an outer side. The jaws are made movable relative to each other in order to at least partially occlude the uterus blood vessels by the opposite sides of the covers on the inner sides of the members 1. The latching mechanism is made to retain the jaws in the working position over a needed period of time and release the jaws when the need for occlusion is over. Each cover has an inner cavity open from one end for receiving and retaining the member 1 of said jaw.

Abstract: A surgical instrument for at least partially occlusion of the uterus blood vessels during a cesarean section comprising two jaws movable relative to each other to at least partially occlude the uterus blood vessels, latching mechanism to retain the jaws the in the working position over needed period of time and release the jaws when the need for occlusion is over, a disposable tubular cover on the end member of each jaw, said end member of a jaw is connected with the other member of the jaw with an angle 25-45 degrees, preferred angle is 30-45 degrees, said cover has an inner cavity open from one end for receiving and retaining the jaw, the thickness of the side of the cover to be engaged with the blood vessels is 3-15 mm, preferably, 8-12 mm, the width of said cover is 10-30 mm, the length of said cover is 50-60 mm, and said cover made of gauze or fabric.

Abstract: A method for performing a cesarean section includes the occlusion of uterine arteries using an atraumatic occlusion instrument, for example, an atraumatic clamp, after pulling the uterus from the pelvic cavity and placing it on the patient abdomen, The method significantly reduces blood loss in patients. An atraumatic occlusion clamp has disposable covers made of gauze.

Abstract: A system for dental x-ray examinations includes an image receptor, and a holder removably bonded to the image receptor by an adhesive coating. The system for dental x-ray examinations provides the clinician with a greater freedom of positioning and thereby improves upon the effectiveness of x-ray examinations, as well as upon patient comfort.
