Abstract: A pump system includes: a housing with a pump and an electric motor therein; a pump inlet with a pump inlet port; a pump outlet with a pump outlet port; a drive shaft rotatably driven by the electric motor, for driving the pump to pressurize fluid received through a main path of the pump from the pump inlet for output from an outlet path to the pump outlet; and a controller having a sensor. A portion of the pressurized fluid is directed to an auxiliary circuit for temperature measurement to provide an internal temperature check point of fluid within the system. The sensor is exposed to the auxiliary path, with or without use of a heat sink. Fluid is redirected to a return path for motor cooling and then a secondary path through the housing to return to the outlet path or the pump inlet.

Abstract: The Shared Internet Storage Resource provides Internet-based file storage, retrieval, access, control, and manipulation for a user. Additionally, an easy-to-use user interface is provided both for a browser or stand-alone application. The entire method provides means by which users can establish, use, and maintain files on the Internet in a manner remote from their local computers yet in a manner that is similar to the file manipulation used on their local computers. A high capacity or other storage system is attached to the Internet via an optional internal network that also serves to generate and direct metadata regarding the stored files. A web server using a CGI, Java®-based, or other interface transmits and retrieves TCP/IP packets or other Internet information through a load balancer/firewall by using XML to wrap the data packets. File instructions may be transmitted over the Internet to the Shared Resource System.

Abstract: Catheters adapted for use in small body vessels are described. A catheter includes an elongate shaft having a main body that defines first and second lumens. An inner tubular member is disposed in the second lumen and is formed of a material that has a stiffness that is greater than a stiffness of the material forming the main body.

Abstract: A mobile application includes a user interface for creating video or hypervideo content comprising a plurality of visual cards. User text input is received for display on one of the visual cards, and text analysis information comprising a tone of the text and a topic of the text and/or one or more keywords of the text is identified based on the text input. Using the text analysis information, one or more media assets are retrieved and a theme for the visual card is selected. The visual card is then constructed based on the text, the media assets, and a style definition associated with the theme. Additional visual cards can be created in a similar manner, resulting in a complete presentation.

Abstract: A sheath for deploying a medical device to a target site in the body of a patient. A tubular inner liner has a proximal portion, a distal portion, and an outer surface. An outer jacket has a proximal portion, a distal portion, and an inner surface. A reinforcing member is received within a length of the outer jacket. The outer jacket is positioned longitudinally around the inner liner and bonded to the outer surface of the liner. The reinforcing member, which may be a triaxial braid, or an encapsulated longitudinal reinforcing wire, extends along the outer jacket length and is configured for inhibiting elongation of the sheath upon deployment of the device.

Abstract: Provided is a curb adapter, comprising a first wall along a first direction of extension; a second wall along a second direction of extension that is different from the first direction of extension; and a corner support mechanism coupled at a corner that includes an edge of the first wall and an edge of the second wall. The corner support mechanism includes at least one fastener coupled to the edge of the first wall and at least one fastener coupled to the edge of the second wall.

Abstract: A method of forming a reinforced tubular medical device in a continuous operation, and a medical device formed by the continuous method. An elongated core capable of movement about a line is provided. An elongated tubular member is formed around a moving length of the core by extruding a coating of a functionalized polymer around the moving core length, applying a reinforcing member to an outer surface of the functionalized polymer coating along the moving length, and extruding a polymeric outer jacket over the functionalized polymer and reinforcing member along the moving length, such that a bond is formed between the functionalized polymer and the polymeric outer jacket. The elongated tubular member is cut to desired length to form the tubular medical device, and the core is removed from the device.
