Abstract: A method in a server includes receiving sensor data from an edge computing device, the sensor data generated by a sensor array disposed on a support surface carrying items; detecting, from the sensor data, a set of regions of the sensor array corresponding to respective items carried on the support surface; generating, for each region, a corresponding monitoring definition, each monitoring definition containing: a location of the region within the array, a noise compensation indicator, and an item presence indicator; sending the monitoring definitions to the edge computing device; subsequent to sending the monitoring definitions, receiving item count data from the edge computing device, the item count data derived at the edge computing device from further sensor data generated by the sensor array, based on the monitoring definitions.

Abstract: A bed linen combination for use on a mattress. The combination includes a bottom fitted sheet having a first side, an opposing second side, a top edge and a foot-end which is sized and shaped to fit over the mattress. The combination also includes a top flat sheet attached to the bottom fitted sheet at the foot-end and a portion of the first and second sides of the bottom fitted sheet at first and second side attachment segments. Tags may also be affixed at the ends of the side attachment segments to the top flat sheet and bottom fitted sheet. In another embodiment of the present invention, a blanket may be magnetically held in place at the foot-end of the top flat sheet and bottom fitted sheet.

Abstract: A clip for reducing a dimension of an opening in tissue may include a continuous member having a plurality of legs and a plurality of preformed bends connecting adjacent legs, wherein the plurality of legs form: a first group having two protrusions; a second group having two protrusions; and a third group having two protrusions, wherein each protrusion of each group includes two legs of the continuous member and a corresponding preformed bend connecting the two legs, and each protrusion of each group extends from a region adjacent a first end of the clip to a region adjacent a second end of the clip.

Abstract: Expandable occlusive plugs and methods of using them are disclosed. The devices generally include a tubular body bearing multiple slits defining leaves, which expand radially outward when the ends of the device are brought toward one another.

Abstract: A monitoring device provided for monitoring the delivery of fluids through a drip chamber. The device includes an electromagnetic radiation (EMR) source and an EMR detector. The device includes a tubing set mount for receiving a flange or other portion of a tubing set, such that fluid falling through the drip chamber of the tubing set is detected by the detector. The device is operable to determine one or more rolling averages based on intervals of drops or time.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to compounds of formula (I) and pharmaceutically acceptable salts, and compositions thereof, wherein the substituents are as defined herein. Also provided are methods of making compounds of formula (I), and methods involving the compounds or compositions for treating disorders and diseases described herein.

Abstract: Described herein are compounds of Formula (I) that are inhibitors of mTORC1, pharmaceutical compositions including such compounds, and methods of using such compounds and compositions.

Abstract: Methods for superior capsular repair use knotless anchors on the glenoid row to simplify graft shuttling and reduce the number of sutures required to complete the repair. A single suture knotlessly attached to the graft and to a glenoid row anchor is the primary pulley used to shuttle the graft into the joint Other sutures attached to the graft may be placed in working portals to add further control over the graft orientation.

Abstract: The disclosure provides 32-deoxo-rapamycin derivatives of Formula (I), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, pharmaceutical compositions and pharmaceutical combinations comprising a compound of Formula (I), and methods of making same. Also provided herein are methods of using a compound of Formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof for treating the diseases and disorders described herein.

Abstract: Delivery systems for liquid embolics and methods of using them are disclosed. The devices generally include a catheter and one or more retention elements to limit migration of the liquid embolic to non-target sites.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to compounds of formula (I) and pharmaceutically acceptable salts, and compositions thereof, wherein the substituents are as defined herein. Also provided are methods of making compounds of formula (I), and methods involving the compounds or compositions for treating disorders and diseases described herein.

Abstract: A monitoring device provided for monitoring the delivery of fluids through a drip chamber. The device includes an electromagnetic radiation source and a radiation detector. A weight detector is positioned to determine the weight of a fluid reservoir over time, and the detector is positioned with respect to the drip chamber to detect drops falling through the drip chamber. A processor is coupled to the radiation detector and the weight detector to determine flow rate, and is further coupled to a flow restrictor to selectively increase or decrease flow based on the determined flow rate.
