Abstract: An anesthetic administration device comprising an infusion device, which is in fluid connection with a regional anesthetic needle by means of a feed tube. The infusion device comprises one or more anesthetic flow devices capable of triggering forward flow, and optionally backward flow, of the local anesthetic through the regional anesthetic needle. Forward, and optionally backward flow, of the local anesthetic through the regional anesthetic needle is controlled by a controller that comprises one or more actuator switches. The one or more actuator switches are positioned on the device 1 such that they may be operated by hand.

Abstract: A system for increasing passenger safety within an airplane (10) includes a forward seat (16) having a back surface (17) that faces an occupant seat (14). A tray table holder (22) is secured to or formed integrally with the back of the forward seat (16). A tray table (20) is rotatably connected to the tray table holder via a hinge (40) and is rotatable relative to the tray table holder. The tray table defines a cavity (32) inside the tray table. An airbag (54) is within the cavity. An inlet device (42) is coupled to the airbag and is rotatable about the hinge (40) such that the inflator inlet can rotate as the tray table rotates relative to the tray table holder. An inflator (52) is connected to the inlet device and is configured to deliver gas to the airbag through the inflator inlet.

Abstract: A seat having a seat frame with a seat back designed to prevent injuries to a rear occupant seated behind the seat as the rear occupant moves forward into the seat back during a frontal crash of a vehicle, the seat including a seat back frame part designed to support the back of any occupant but which can rotate during a crash as a rear occupant moves forward into the seat back, the invention including at least one energy absorbing assembly to control the rotary motion of the rotating seat frame part, the rotating frame part maintained in a non-rotating state by an articulating or breakable pin which when moved or broken permits the frame part to rotate as the rear occupant engages the seat frame in response to a frontal vehicular crash.

Abstract: An apparatus for performing laryngoscopy is provided, the apparatus comprising a blade, a handle, and a medical gas supply device for provision of gas to a patient during laryngoscopy, wherein the medical gas supply device includes an outlet disposed on or in the handle of the device, or within the proximal half of the blade. A gas supply conduit supplies gas from a proximal aperture to outlet.

Abstract: An electronic system provides various features and functionality for managing resources. An alert may be sent when a mobile device crosses a geo-fence. The alert may describe how much of the resource is available for the types of transaction that are likely to occur within the geo-fence. The alert may request or confirm the allocation of the transaction to a resource pool or suggest alternative transactions.

Abstract: A safety apparatus for use in a procedure comprises at least first and second devices, wherein the first device and second device are for use in a medical procedure, the apparatus comprising a disabling mechanism that is adapted to releasably retain and thereby prevent use of the said second device until release by a release procedure using the first device. A method of carrying out a procedure comprises the steps of using the first device, applying the first device to a disabling mechanism to release the second device, and using the second device.

Abstract: Debugging capabilities for software running in a cloud-computing environment are disclosed. A controller identifies which machines in the cloud are running instances of software to be debugged. An agent is deployed onto the machines in the cloud to facilitate communication with the developer's machine. When the developer wants to debug software on the agent's machine, the agent downloads and installs a monitor onto the machine. The agent configures the machine for remote debugging via the monitor. A security mechanism ensures that only authenticated developers can access the monitor and the remote machine for debugging. A controller automatically determines which machines can be debugged, updates a list of processes available for debugging on the machines, and identifies how to connect a developer's debugging client to the machines. The controller permits remote debugging only upon request from an authenticated developer and only for those processes that the developer is permitted to debug.

Abstract: A safety warning system for detecting glucose in an arterial monitoring or flush system is disclosed. An example of the system comprises a receptacle configured to receive fluid from a line for connecting to a patient, and an indicator arranged to contact the fluid and configured to provide an indication of whether the fluid comprises glucose. The receptacle comprises a gas release path to enable the fluid to displace gas to contact the indicator.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for automatically transitioning a user from a call to action (CTA) to an enrollment interface. An embodiment operates by receiving a request from a user's device to display web content. The requested web content is displayed along with a CTA. When the CTA is selected by the user, an e-mail client associated with the user's device automatically opens, generates an electronic message based on the selected CTA, and populates a recipient address and a code associated with the CTA within the electronic message. Upon its receipt, the electronic message is processed by enrolling the user in a campaign associated with the CTA based on the code and the user's e-mail address. An electronic message is generated and sent to the user's e-mail address that contains a first hyperlink to the campaign associated with the CTA and a second hyperlink to an associated privacy policy.
