Abstract: This description is related to an adapter that can be coupled to a stroller frame (e.g., to one side of the stroller frame) or other child product and that is changeable between a first configuration for supporting a first type of accessory (e.g., stroller accessory) and a second configuration for supporting a second type of accessory. The adapter can include a hub that is rotatable relative to the stroller frame or child product and can include a first connector and a second connector positioned at different locations relative to the hub. In examples, when the hub is rotated to a first position, the first connector can be in position to support the first type of accessory, and when the hub is rotated to the second position, the second connector can be in position to support the second type of accessory.

Abstract: A child protection system is provided with a cover member that is interchangeable between different child carriers, such as an infant car seat and a stroller. The interchangeable cover member protects a child occupant from sun, wind, weather, insects, germs and provides privacy. The cover member is removably coupled to an anchor member, such as a canopy, of an infant car seat when in a first position. The cover member is removably coupled to an anchor member, such as a bumper bar, of a stroller when in a second position.

Abstract: A method for spinal rod insertion includes providing a U-shaped hook tool comprising first and second legs, and inserting the first leg into a first location of a first vertebra and then pushing the hook tool along an arc-shaped path until the first leg exits through a second location of an adjacent second vertebra. Next, providing a spinal stabilization rod and a folded flexible wire comprising first and second open ends at the front end and a closed loop end. The closed loop end is attached to a first end of the spinal stabilization rod and the first and second open ends of the folded flexible wire are inserted into an open end of the second leg of the hook, and the folded flexible wire is threaded through the U-shaped hook and the first and second open ends of the flexible wire exit through an open end of the first leg.
