Publication number: 20260053388Abstract: Devices and methods for vascular navigation, assessment and/or diagnosis are disclosed where a location detection system generally includes an elongate body defining a lumen at least partially along a length of the elongate body. One or more sensors are positioned near or at a distal tip of the elongate body and one or more openings are defined along the elongate body in proximity to the one or more sensors. The one or more openings are configured to control a boundary distance between the one or more sensors and a fluid with a parameter of a known initial value when emitted from the one or more openings. A controller is in communication with the one or more sensors and is configured to track a change in the parameter relating to concentration over the one or more sensors and determine a position of the one or more sensors within a body.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 16, 2025Publication date: February 26, 2026Applicant: Piccolo Medical, Inc.Inventors: Alexey SALAMINI, Jonathan SILBERSTEIN, John MCKENZIE, Daniel R.

Publication number: 20230285719Abstract: Devices and methods for vascular navigation, assessment, treatment and/or diagnosis are disclosed. The system generally comprises an elongate body sized for introduction and translation through a catheter lumen. One or more openings may be located at or in proximity to a distal end of the elongate body and a sensor is positioned at or in proximity to the distal end. The sensor is configured to measure at least one parameter of a mixture of a first fluid and a second fluid after the first fluid is emitted from the openings and into the second fluid when the distal end is advanced beyond a distal opening of the catheter lumen. A controller in communication with the sensor is configured to receive a signal indicative of the at least one parameter and is further configured to obtain a position of the sensor within a body of a subject based upon the signal.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 2, 2023Publication date: September 14, 2023Applicant: Piccolo Medical, Inc.Inventors: Alexey SALAMINI, Jonathan SILBERSTEIN, Augustus SHANAHAN, Kevin MCDERMOTT, John MCKENZIE, Mark SPECTOR, Daniel R.

Patent number: 11658438Abstract: An electrical connector can include a receptacle disposed in a housing. The housing can include a second end and an openable first end having at least two housing portions that are movable relative to each other between: an open position in which the receptacle is accessible by a plug through the housing portions; and a closed position in which the receptacle is not accessible by the plug through the housing portions. At least one of the housing portions can be biased toward the open position. The electrical connector can further include a grip coupled to the housing and movable relative to the housing between a first position that permits movement of the housing portions to the open position; and a second position in which the grip overlies the at least one biased-open housing portion such that the grip prevents movement of the housing portions to the open position.Type: GrantFiled: December 17, 2021Date of Patent: May 23, 2023Assignee: SHPP GLOBAL TECHNOLOGIES B.V.Inventors: Shawn Lee, David Wimberly, John McKenzie, Trevor Jackson

Patent number: 11243857Abstract: A functional test execution engine (“FTEE”) may be configured to execute test scripts with respect to a server stack. The FTEE may be communicatively coupled to a test script storage device, which may store the test scripts. The FTEE may select one or more test scripts for execution with respect to the server stack. The one or more test scripts may carry out maintenance or diagnostic functions for the server stack. The FTEE may determine the processing resources of the server stack and, based on those processing resources, select a first set of test scripts from the one or more test scripts to execute. The FTEE may cause the first set of test scripts selected to execute with respect to the server stack in order to generate test script results. The FTEE may store the test script results for subsequent analysis and use during execution of subsequent test scripts.Type: GrantFiled: May 28, 2020Date of Patent: February 8, 2022Assignee: Bank of America CorporationInventors: Pratap Dande, Manikumar Juttukonda, Daniel P.
