Abstract: Provided is a stool or stoop device that is easily transitioned between a stowed position within a cabinet and a deployed or in-use position outside of a cabinet. The stool may have a streamlined design and high ease of use so that the stool may be stowed away, set up, and utilized by children, in an example. The stool can accommodate multiple cabinet designs, floor surfaces and under-cabinet structures, such as drain traps and plumbing. The stool may be flat-boxed shipped and easily assembled and installed into a cabinet structure with minimal tools or training. In an embodiment, the stool may comprise at least two legs, wherein each leg includes a concaved or recessed portion, at least one step between and connecting the at least two legs, and a pivotable bracket for facilitating the transition between a stowed and deployed positions. The stool may be mounted to an interior of a cabinet or may include a weighted base that is positionable within the interior of the cabinet.

Abstract: A therapy system for applying an electrical signal to an internal anatomical feature of a patient includes an implantable component and an external component. The external component can be configured into one of multiple selectable operating modes. The therapy system also may include a first external antenna configured to communicate with the implantable component and a second external antenna configured to communicate with the implantable component. Plugging one of the external antennas into the external component automatically configures the external component into one of the operating modes.

Abstract: A therapy system for applying an electrical signal to an internal anatomical feature of a patient includes an implantable component and an external component. Initial values for the parameters of a therapy program can be incremented after a predetermined period of time by a predetermined amount to obtain a subsequent value of the parameter and therapy can be applied using the subsequent value. A sensor may be implanted within the patient to determine an activity level of the patient. Weight loss of the patient can be analyzed to determine whether the weight loss corresponds to the activity level of the patient.
