Abstract: A glove-mountable system for pelvic floor muscle (PFM) examination includes a first flexible member including a force sensor configured to detect a force applied to a PFM of a patient by a user. A second flexible member includes an electromyography (EMG) electrode, a stimulation electrode, and a 3-D digitization probe. The second flexible member is stacked on the first flexible member and each flexible member is secured to an examination glove. An actuation button is actuated by the user when at least one point of interest is detected in at least on PFM. A computer including a processor and a memory is in communication with the first flexible member, the second flexible member and the actuation button. The computer generates a 3-D map of a plurality of PFMs of the patient based on data received from the first flexible member, the second flexible member and the actuation button.

Abstract: A prosthesis impactor assembly is provided having an impactor handle, an adaptor separate from the impactor handle, a connector rotatably secured within the adaptor, and a locking mechanism to lock the adaptor and connector to the impactor handle. The connector has a prosthesis connector member for connecting to the acetabular cup at one end, and a drive connector at an opposing end. The adaptor is received by a receiver of the impactor handle and is locked in place with the locking mechanism. The adaptor and impactor handle further have timing members to properly align the adaptor with respect to the impactor handle.

Abstract: A plaster panel and a method of using it is disclosed, wherein the plaster panel includes a slab of cementitious composition including a mixture of sizes of cut expanded polystyrene, a quantity of monofilament fiber, and at least one binding agent. At least one layer of a mesh is provided, wherein the resulting panel is light in weight, flexible and strong. Similar panels may be affixed to a building frame by suitable fasteners such as nails or screws, while causing little or no fracturing of the panel.

Abstract: A system and method of making a plaster panel to use in the construction of a wall of a building in a relatively faster, easier, more efficient, and more precise manner for either interior or exterior walls is disclosed. The created plaster panels may include a slab of cementitious composition including a mixture of sizes of cut expanded polystyrene, a quantity of monofilament fiber, and a binding agent. At least one layer of a mesh may surround the slab, wherein the resulting panel is light in weight, flexible and strong. Such panels may be fixed in place to a building frame by suitable fasteners such as nails or screws, while causing little or no fracturing of the panel.
