Abstract: Systems, devices, and techniques for creating blind annular vias for metallized vias are described. For example, a vortex beam may be applied to an optically transmissive substrate, where the vortex beam may modify a portion of the substrate in an annular shape. The annular shape may extend from a surface of the substrate to a depth that is less than a thickness of the substrate, and the annular shape may have an annular width (e.g., a ring width) that is the same for various diameters of the annular shape. A blind annular via may be formed by etching the modified portion of the substrate, where the blind annular via may include a pillar comprising the same material as the surrounding substrate. In addition, a metallized annular via may be created by filling the blind annular via with a conductive material, and removing a portion of the substrate opposite the surface.

The abdominal panel has a specific configuration and size to cause an upper portion of the abdomen is held in position and a lower portion of the abdomen to be held in position, with forces being applied so that these portions remain in a preferred alignment. The belt member includes a strap that is configured so that it can be positioned within the user's waist groove, and will provide additional supporting forces. In this way, the belt provides support to three critical locations on the user's body, thus insuring optimum alignment and support of the user's central body region.

Abstract: Systems, devices and methods for advanced electrode management in neurological monitoring applications include receiving sockets configured to receive connectors having groups of electrodes. The physician is not required to manually map each electrode with its corresponding input channel. Electrodes are coupled to the corresponding input channels in groups through connectors having a unique identification (ID). The system is configured to read the unique ID of each connector and establish its identity. Based on the ID, the system configures itself to automatically correlate or associate each electrode with its corresponding input channel when the connectors are first inserted into the receiving sockets, and again if the connectors are removed and re-inserted into different positions in the receiving sockets, to insure the electrodes are always mapped to the same input channels.
