Abstract: Systems and methods for the intravascular treatment of clot material within a blood vessel of a human patient are disclosed herein. A method in accordance with embodiments of the present technology can include, for example, positioning a distal portion of a catheter proximate to the clot material within the blood vessel. The method can further include coupling a pressure source to the catheter via a tubing subsystem including a valve or other fluid control device and, while the valve is closed, activating the pressure source to charge a vacuum. The valve can then be opened to apply the vacuum to the catheter to thereby aspirate at least a portion of the clot material from the blood vessel and into the catheter.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method, system and computer program product for identifying ancestor objects in hierarchical data configured for processing with a query, the query having an associated abstract syntax tree. The abstract syntax tree may be processed so as to generate an augmented abstract syntax tree which includes parent identifiers configured to identify the parent nodes of the query. In this way, a need to pre-parse the data may be alleviated. Instead, the identification of a parent node of a query may be encoded into the abstract syntax tree of the query.

Also disclosed are algorithms for correlating these conditions, characteristics and parameters with adjustment data for adjusting machine settings to achieve a desired performance of a power equipment device.

Abstract: A cleaning module for cleaning bone stock used in surgical procedures. The cleaning module includes a shell. The shell defines a void space to receive the bone stock. A cutter is rotating mounted in the void space. A shaving tube, also able to rotate, is coaxially disposed about the cutter. The cutter and shaving tube have complementary edges. A drive assembly rotates the cutter and shaving tube at different speeds, at different times or in different directions relative to the cutter. As a result of the rotation of the cutter and shaving tube soft tissue adhering to the bone stock is cut away from the bone stock by the relative rotating of the cutting edges of the cutter and shaving tube.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are catheters having multiple coil layers, and associated systems and methods. In some embodiments, a catheter includes an inner liner, a plurality of wires over the inner liner, and an outer sheath over the wires. The wires are coiled about a longitudinal axis of the catheter in a first direction to form a first coil layer over the inner liner, and the wires are coiled about the longitudinal axis in a second direction, opposite the first direction, over the first coil layer to form a second coil layer over the first coil layer. The wires each include a continuous/self-terminating end portion wherein the wire switches from the first direction to the second direction and transitions from the inner coil layer to the outer coil layer.

Abstract: A bone cleaning assembly with cleaning elements that remove soft tissue from bone stock. The module also includes a clearing element that is periodically urged against the cleaning elements to remove bone stock trapped by the cleaning elements from the cleaning elements.

Abstract: Systems and methods for the intravascular treatment of clot material within a blood vessel of a human patient are disclosed herein. A method in accordance with embodiments of the present technology can include, for example, engaging an interventional device of a catheter system with clot material in a blood vessel and withdrawing the interventional device and the portion of the clot material through a guide catheter. In some embodiments, the catheter system can include an attachment/valve member coupled to a proximal portion of the guide catheter, and the method can include unsealing the attachment/valve member to facilitate withdrawing the interventional device through the attachment/valve member without significant retention of clot material within the attachment/valve member. The method can further include resealing and aspirating the guide catheter before advancing another interventional device to the clot material to again engage and remove clot material from the blood vessel.

Abstract: Systems and methods for forming a tubular braid are disclosed here-in. A braiding system configured in accordance with embodiments of the present technology can include, for example, an upper drive unit, a lower drive unit, a mandrel coaxial with the upper and lower drive units, and a plurality of tubes extending between the upper drive unit and the lower drive unit. Each tube can be configured to receive individual filaments for forming the tubular braid, and the upper and lower drive units can act in synchronization to move the tubes (and the filaments contained within those tubes) in three distinct motions: (i) radially inward toward a central axis, (ii) radially outward away from the central axis, and (iii) rotationally about the central axis, to cross the filaments over and under one another to form the tubular braid on the mandrel.

Abstract: In some embodiments, the instant invention is directed to a computer-implemented method, including: electronically receiving, over a computer network, from a computer system life insurance data for a plurality of policyholders associated with a pooled stable value wrap (SVW) financial product having a predetermine capping; where the predetermined capping is an X percent limit to be maintained for a ratio of a pre-withdrawal fair market value of an investment portfolio to a pre-withdrawal total notional stable value account; automatically classifying a policyholder into a class based on the predetermined capping; electronically receiving investment data resulted from investing investment assets in an investment option; automatically partitioning the investment assets into an investment pool; automatically calculating any modifications to the life insurance data based on: the pre-withdrawal fair market value of the investment pool, the first pre-withdrawal total notional stable value account, and a write-down t

Abstract: A system receives an operation by a trusted node on a blockchain, simulates an execution of the operation, and captures endorsement policy information related to the execution of the operation.

Abstract: A uniform resource identifier (URI) shortening service, such as a URL shortening service, creates the shortened URI along with “synopsis” data relating to the human understandable content of the resource, such as the text and images in a typical web site. Later, when users use the shortened URI to retrieve the resource, if the synopsis data for the resource has changed too much relative to the synopsis data as created at the earlier time of the URI shortening, then the requesting users are given some type of notification or warning that the content of the resource has changed. This can save the end users from wasting time retrieving and reviewing a resource that is no longer of interest due to the changes in the content.

Abstract: A bone cleaning assembly (102, 602) with cleaning elements (690, 724, 1230, 1264) that remove soft tissue from bone stock. The module also includes a clearing element (778) that is periodically urged against the cleaning elements to remove bone stock trapped by the cleaning elements from the cleaning elements.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are clot treatment systems with filtering syringes, and associated devices and methods. The filtering syringe can be coupled to a catheter subsystem insertable within a patient. The filtering syringe can aspirate material (e.g., clot material, blood, etc.) from a patient via the catheter subsystem. The filtering syringe can include a plunger assembly, and the plunger assembly can include one or more filters. Each of the filters can be configured to (i) allow at least a first portion of aspirated material (e.g., blood) to pass through at least one of the filters, and (ii) prevent at least a second portion of the aspirated material (e.g., clot material) from passing through at least one of the filters. In some embodiments, the filtering syringe is fluidly coupled to a filtered material subsystem that can fluidly couple the filtering syringe to the patient or another suitable fluid outflow location.
