Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to the field of medical devices. In particular, the present disclosure relates to a tissue traction device for endoscopic procedures such as tissue dissection. For example, a tissue traction device may include first and second attachment members pivotably attached by first and second swivels to opposite ends of a stretchable traction band comprising a compliant or semi-compliant material.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to the field of medical devices. In particular, the present disclosure relates to a tissue traction device, e.g., for endoscopic tissue dissection. For example, a tissue traction device may include a first clip comprising opposable jaws. The device may include a traction band having a first end, a second end, a length therebetween and extending along a longitudinal axis. The band may have a first aperture at the first end. A second aperture may be at the second end of the band. A first jaw of the opposable jaws of the first clip may be disposed through the first aperture.

Abstract: Systems to establish a security profile may include a memory to store original text from security questionnaires, and values associated with the original text from the questionnaires, the values indicating a section, a control, or a question of the original text. The system may also include a processing unit. The processing unit can identify a set of latent topics present in the original text from the stored security questionnaires, score the original text based on presence or absence of latent topics, receive a new security questionnaire, score the new text from the new security questionnaire based on presence or absence of latent topics, compute a distance between the scored original text from the stored security questionnaires and the scored new text from the new security questionnaire, and link the original text to the new text with a smallest distance between.

Abstract: A filament cutting device may include an outer sheath. A bushing may be coupled to a distal end of the outer sheath. An inner diameter of the bushing may be a cutting edge at a distal tip of the bushing. An actuation wire may be slidably extendable within the outer sheath and bushing. An engaging body may be coupled to a distal end of the actuation wire. A cavity may be defined along a length of the engaging body configured to capture a portion of the filament within the cavity. Movement of the actuation wire and engaging body with the filament captured within the cavity may cause the cutting edge to sever the filament.

Abstract: A system and methods for training an athlete to improve performance and swinging a baseball bat includes using several devices, looting a rolling force training bat, a swinging force training bat, variable weight training bat, a shoulder posture training device, a swinging posture training device and a hamstring tension device. The various training devices may be used alone or in combination with others to identify and correct at athletes posture, stamps and motion.

Abstract: An oral airway and intubation assisting device that protects a patient's teeth and includes a wedge adapted to redirect force from the patient's incisor teeth to the patient's maxilla, a block adapted to hold the patient's mouth open, and an airway guide adapted to prevent the tongue from closing the throat and maintain a clear passage for air. Additionally, the device may include a tube retainer adapted to secure the intubation tube against movement.

Abstract: A vehicle information storage system for all vehicle electronic sensors comprising a condition monitoring subsystem(7) and a storage subsystem(9). The condition monitoring subsystem(7) comprises, display(30), warning lamps(32), and a central processing unit(24) with a microprocessor and memory. The storage subsystem(9) comprising a central data processor(31) with a plurality of storage devices(16) one for each of a plurality sensor inputs(11), a plurality of remote receiving units(10), and a data routing unit(14). All the sensor inputs in the storage subsystem(7) are connected to the central data processor(31) over a single wire with the centrally located data routing unit(14) and the plurality of remote receiving units(10). Each sensor input(11) is monitored according to the information content of the associated sensor data as determined by prior analysis.
