Abstract: The present invention provides a cerebrospinal fluid shunt system that monitors the intracranial pressures over a portion of a monitoring cycle to calculate short intervals of drainage for every monitoring cycle necessary to produce the desired pressure correction. The system operates to significantly reduce the time during which draining occurs allowing tissue surrounding the catheter to rebound from the catheter holes returning to its normal position for a sufficient amount of time to recover its normal shape.

Abstract: The shape of the urine stream can be used to measure both the flow rate and orifice geometry. The measurement of the shape of the urine stream can be a useful diagnostic tool for medical practitioners since it provides a noninvasive method of measuring urine flow rate and urethral dilation. A novel diagnostic visual voiding device (VVD) measures Symptoms of Lower Urinary Tract Dysfunction (LUTD) such as urinary incontinence. The VVD consists of a lightweight foldable booth with LED lights, microphone, video cameras on left side, top, face, and container that display stream height, width, angle, distance, face grimacing, container height and flow versus time. The VVD will improve the initial diagnosis of Lower Urinary Tract Dysfunction (LUTD) and also improve LUTD by providing subsequent diagnosis after treatment. It enables the patient to video and audio record urinary voiding in privacy.

Abstract: A flexible patch is provided that is capable of emitting light in the UV, visible, and/or infrared electromagnetic spectrums. The patch contains a feedback process and system using one or more sensors and a controller on the patch to (1) accelerate the wound healing process by providing adaptable, controlled light exposure and electrical stimulation, (2) monitor the healing process for signs of infection (3) eliminate bacterial infections by sanitizing the infected site and (4) relaying the information wirelessly to a central location for storage and interpretation by a physician as well as by providing the ability to receive feedback and operating instructions from the physician from a remote location.
