Abstract: The present disclosures describe devices and methods to repair cartilage defects using arthroscopic surgical methods. The disclosed devices include a cannula assembly including a cannula body, a dam seal sub-assembly disposed proximally from the cannula body, and an obturator inserted coaxially through both the cannula body and the dam seal sub-assembly; an articulated arthroscopic cutting tool; a ring curette; a square curette; a rake curette; a matrix shuttle delivery device for delivering a cell-seeded support matrix including chondrocytes; and an applicator tool.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a device that in some embodiments can be used to securely fasten a medical device (e.g. an endotracheal tube) in position for use by a patient. In various embodiments, the device can include a frame and an adjustable locking mechanism slidably connected to the frame. The adjustable locking mechanism can feature a cylindrical block, a swivel lock portion, and an adjustable clip.

Abstract: A card reader tampering detector includes at least one sensor and a detector circuit coupled to the sensor(s). The detector circuit is configured to receive a sensor output from the sensor(s) when the sensor is inserted into a smartcard reader. The detector circuit is further configured to detect, from the sensor output, the presence of an unauthorized device within the smartcard reader, and provide an output signal indicative of the presence of the unauthorized device within the smartcard reader.

Abstract: A card reader tampering detector includes a substrate, a detector circuit, and at least one sensor disposed on the substrate and configured for communication with the detector circuit. The substrate is dimensioned to facilitate at least partial insertion of the tampering detector in a smartcard reader. The sensor is positioned on the substrate such that, when the tampering detector is at least partially inserted in the smartcard reader, the sensor aligns with a region of the reader normally occupied by a smartcard when the smartcard is inserted in the reader. The detector circuit is configured to receive a sensor output from the at least one sensor, from the sensor output detect a presence of an unauthorized device within the smartcard reader when the tampering detector is at least partially inserted in the reader, and provide an output signal indicative of the presence of the unauthorized device within the smartcard reader.
