Abstract: A dropout recloser is capable of in accordance with its operating programming after a predetermined number of fault interrupting operations, e.g., 1, 2, 3 or more but typically 3, to drop out of a cutout and hang freely in a hinge contact of the cutout providing sectionalization with an observable visible gap. The recloser includes fault interrupting and reclosing components, a drop out mechanism and a controller. The drop out mechanism may include a bi-stable actuator to affect fault interrupting operation and dropout operation. The device may include motion limiting structures. The recloser may have a number of operating modes or sequences.

Abstract: An image item processing engine for image item exchange may receive an image item data packet including two image items, each including a digital image documenting an action for a recipient institution and associated metadata. The metadata may identify the image item sender and a country associated with an image item, the packet originator, or the recipient institution, at least one country associated with the second image item being different than a country associated with the first image item. The engine may apply sorting rules to determine item types for the first and second image items based on their metadata, determine a recipient institution for the packet based on the item types, assemble a data transfer packet including the digital images and metadata included in the first and second image items, and provide the data transfer packet to a transfer packet routing service for routing to the selected recipient institution.

Abstract: An example temperature-controlled system is described herein. The system can be used for delivering a thermoresponsive polymer to a treatment site, for example, during an RF ablation procedure. The system can include a syringe capable of maintaining the thermoresponsive polymer liquid at a temperature below its liquid-solid phase transition temperature.

Abstract: An apparatus that senses temperature from a digital infrared sensor is described. A digital signal representing a temperature without conversion from analog is transmitted from the digital infrared sensor received by a microprocessor and converted to body core temperature by the microprocessor.

Abstract: An electrosurgical device is provided. The device includes a cooled probe, an introducer, and a side port for the introduction of liquid into a lumen defined by an outer diameter of the probe and an inner diameter of the introducer when the probe is positioned inside the introducer such that a distal end of the probe can contact a target site (e.g., the site near/adjacent the tissue to be treated). The side port can be connected to a syringe/other liquid introduction apparatus via tubing so that a liquid (e.g., a therapeutic agent, saline, etc.) can be injected into the lumen and can exit the distal region of the introducer so that it is delivered to the target site. Additionally, the syringe can be removed so that the tubing can serve as a vent during treatment with the electrosurgical device.
