Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods for molecularly characterizing cervical cell samples as being negative for intraepithelial lesion or malignancy (NILM), low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (LSIL), or high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (HSIL).

Abstract: A surgical sponge with an integrated RFID transponder is disclosed. A laundry RFID transponder integrated between layers of the sponge provides means for surgical personnel to verify with a RFID reader that all such sponges have been removed from a patient's body prior to an incision being closed or from a body cavity without an incision. The RFID reader may also be used post closure to re-verify that no such sponges have been inadvertently closed within the patient. A system may include a storage means and associated display device to allow for easy and convenient verification that all sponges made available for a particular surgery have all been accounted for prior to the surgical incision being closed.

Abstract: A surgical procedure for managing postoperative pain is disclosed. More particularly, the technique involves use of intrafascial catheter introducer to thread a soaker catheter or the like through fascial sheaths of the human body (e.g., abdominal and chest walls) to relieve postoperative pain. The use of the soaker catheter in apposition to the intercostal nerves enhances the efficacy of the soaker catheter that is normally laid in the subcutaneous space. Case study results evidence the enhanced efficacy of the surgical procedure.
