Abstract: Apparatus and method for remotely detecting super-low frequency (SLF) and extremely-low frequency (ELF) signals eminating from human subjects. The SLF/ELF signals are composed of various wavelengths and amplitudes which correspond to the subjects internal physiological processes. The apparatus includes: a supercooled multi-plate arrayed antenna for detecting the SLF/ELF signals; an analog signal conditioner unit adapted to filter out signals having a frequency of greater than 40 Hertz; and a digital signal processor unit adapted to perform Fast Fourier Transform and autocorrelation signal analyses for separating signal wavelengths and amplitudes which correspond to the internal physiological processes and represent EKG, EEG, EMG, EOG and respiration measurements.

Abstract: A luminescent tongue depressor having a luminiferous depressor element connected to a handle. Means to illuminate the depressor element is preferably a monatomic gas contained within a vacuum tube positioned within the handle element of the device. A concave reflector element directs and concentrates the light towards the depressor element. A rechargeable power source electrically connected to the sealed vacuum tube acts to provide light to the depressor element and its surrounding area. Light dispersing grooves in the depressor element act to disperse the light transmitted from the light source through the depressor element in the mouth. In an alternative embodiment of the device, the depressor element pivots to lie substantially flat against the base of the handle element when not in use.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for the daily measurement of bioelectrical potentials of ovulating women in the area of their finger tips during their menstrual cycle to determine a midcycle peak potential as an indicator of the time of ovulation and thereby provide means for predicting the time for coitus for conception or for predicting the time for abstaining from coitus as an elective means of avoiding conception. Measurement of the finger-tip bioelectrical potential is accomplished through the use of a hand-held, non-invasive ovulation determinator which includes a D.C. potential scanning microgrid electrode applied to a finger tip for locating a site thereon of maximum D.C. potential in relation to the bioelectrical D.C. potential value of a ground electrode applied by the determinator to a hand surface area remote from the finger tip. Thereafter, the determinator measures the maximum bioelectrical D.C.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for non-invasively measuring and analyzing bilateral D.C. bioelectric potentials associated with organized electrical field patterns about discrete anatomical sites on the dermal surface (skin) of human subjects for the purpose of generating data for use by medical practitioners in diagnosing existing or impending illness, dysfunction, disease and/or pathology. The apparatus simultaneously measures D.C. potentials at 10 to 14 bilateral dermal sites through multipoint voltage sensing electrodes and develops a maximum bilateral D.C. potential differential value for each sensed point at each sensing site with respect to a ground potential. The apparatus compares the highest differential voltage values of the right body sites with the highest differential voltage values of the left body sites to determine significant voltage value asymmetry between like right-left pairs of sites. The discrete bilateral anatomical dermal sites utilized for potential measurement yield measurably high D.C.

Abstract: A multidose jet injector having a main cylindrical body assembly with a jet discharge orifice in its closed forward end and which encloses an internal injector piston element. The piston element can be cocked against heavy spring pressure and, in its cocked position, defines a medicament delivery chamber between the closed end of the main body assembly and the head of the piston. A reciprocative piston puller element is located within the main body assembly, rearward of the piston element, and is connected to a medicament pump cylinder which is enclosed within an elongated rearward tubular portion of the piston element.
