Abstract: A lightweight, disposable and substantially radiolucent electrode or sensor assembly for that universally connects to separate, non-integrated electrodes or sensors for the monitoring of the physiological parameters of a live subject wherein the electrode assembly is comprised of one or more radiolucent electrical connectors for connecting the electrode assembly to the sensors. The present invention also discloses a method of positioning the electrode assembly on a patient whose physiological signs are being monitored such that access to the patient's chest is substantially unimpeded so as not to obstruct the electromagnetic imaging of the patient's chest, the application of defibrillation paddles or surgical procedures that require access to the chest area.

Abstract: The present invention provides a self-contained electronic musculoskeletal stimulation apparatus that is a battery operated device that applies electronic stimulation to a human with a pre-programmed treatment stimulation protocol to introduce pain relieving electronic stimulation to the body for immediate, symptomatic relief of minor, chronic and acute musculoskeletal aches and pains and mild muscle tension. This invention also provides a method of using a self-contained electronic musculoskeletal stimulation apparatus whereby pain relieving electronic stimulation is applied to the body on predetermined, sequential stimulation points with electronic stimulation being activated at each consecutive stimulation point. Further, this invention provides a method of applying pain relieving electronic stimulation to a body using a self-contained reusable electronic musculoskeletal stimulation bandage with a preprogrammed treatment stimulation protocol.

Abstract: The present invention provides an infrared remote control receiver with increased suppression of unwanted light, signals, or interference, specifically suppression of interference from plasma television displays and fluorescent light. The infrared remote control receiver may be used in remote control applications whereby it is connected between at least one remote control unit and at least one device or component that is intended to be operated. The receiver also contains status and infrared activity indicators, which indicate whether the individual components of the system are powered and whether the receiver is receiving an infrared signal. The receiver eliminates or reduces interference received by the receiver using a method of processing signals that changes the voltage reference level if the signal is determined to be noise and maintains the noise level at an established limit.
