Abstract: Various of the disclosed embodiments provide Graphical User Interfaces (GUIs) for reviewing prior surgical procedures. Specifically, the GUI may allow a user, such as surgeon, to review sensor data, including video data, acquired during various of the surgeon's past surgical procedures. Some sensor data may be organized into metrics referred to herein as objective performance indicators (OPIs). Similarly, procedures may be discretized into specific tasks. By organizing and presenting data in OPI form at the task level, the GUI may facilitate efficient and coordinated review of the surgeon's progress over time across multiple procedures. In some embodiments, corresponding data from expert surgeons may also presented in the interface so that the user may gauge the surgeon's relative performance.

Abstract: A computer-managed database of interconnected, unique codes attached on trash, recycling and other material management or recovery bags enables program managers to track and measure the materials management behavior including but not limited to weight, composition, compliance, and fraud; and to provide feedback including education, penalties or incentives directly to affected persons in order to cost effectively meet federal, state, local or corporate goals.

Abstract: Various of the disclosed embodiments relate to computer systems and computer-implemented methods for measuring and monitoring surgical performance, For example, the system may receive raw data acquired from the surgical theater, generate and select features from the data amenable to analysis, and then train a machine learning classifier using the selected features to facilitate subsequent assessment of other surgeons' performances. Generation and selection of the features may itself involve application of a machine learning classifier in some embodiments. While some embodiments contemplate raw data acquired from surgical robotic systems, some embodiments facilitate assessments upon data acquired from non-robotic surgical theaters.

Abstract: A plunger configured as described herein provides geometry optimizations to minimize friction magnitude and variability during use by maintaining low deformation under large extrusion forces. More specifically, plunger embodiments described herein minimize a contact area between the plunger and a syringe or chamber, while also maintaining high contract pressures to maintain container closure integrity. Moreover, the plunger embodiments are configured to have minimal or no increase in the contact area under high loads associated with the delivery of viscous products.

Abstract: A computer-based method for receiving purchase transaction data generated by a retailer system triggered by an identification device that is part of one or more reusable bags used by a user to carry goods purchased during the purchase transaction. The user is a student or student family member affiliated with a school or other community-based group. A reuse program server receives identification information provided by the identification device that signals the purchase transaction, updates reuse indicator information for the school; calculates a current savings to the school associated with the use of the reusable carrier; and transmits information indicating the current savings to a display device accessible to the user or to representatives of the school.

Abstract: The disclosure provides novel topical antiviral pharmaceutical compositions comprising one or more antiviral compounds and 2-deoxy-D-glucose in the form of lip-balms, creams and ointments. A specific embodiment discloses a lip-balm composition comprising acyclovir and 2-deoxy-D-glucose.

Abstract: A reusable packaging system includes a series of four bags, each designed to be reusable and capable of standing upright when in an open state. The bags are constructed so that they will fit in an open state within a shopping cart, and differ progressively in size so that they can be nested inside of each other for storage. The nested bags are then folded to form a compact, single package which can be easily transported by a user to a store for shopping.

Abstract: A closure system for a flexible bag. The flexible bag includes a plurality of panels defining an interior compartment of the bag, and a mouth portion for accessing the interior compartment of the bag. The closure system is implemented in two opposing panels of the plurality of panels. Specifically, each one of the two opposing panels further includes a first portion defining a handle and a second portion including an aperture. The first portion of each opposing panel is positioned at a top edge of the panel proximate to the mouth portion, and the second portion of each panel is positioned adjacent to and below the first portion. The handles of the two opposing panels are configured to be drawn together, inserted successively through each of the apertures, and then cinched in order to close the mouth portion of the bag.
