Abstract: Microfluidic package devices are disclosed. In one aspect of the disclosure an example microfluidic package device includes a resilient layer on top of a substrate, where the resilient layer defines at least one sample receiving well above at least one sample receiving portion and at least one outlet well above the at least one outlet portion and the resilient layer defines at least one electrode well above that at least one electrode receiving portion. Microfluidic package holders are also disclosed. Example microfluidic package holders include moveable electrodes and carrier interface cards that align with the resilient layer.

Abstract: A therapeutic muscle exercise device for assisting subjects in maintaining and regaining muscle tone through the use of functional electrical stimulation has an extremity support and a functional electrical stimulation controller. The extremity support is mounted on a mobile support which allows the device to be easily used when the subject is laying on a bed.

Abstract: A fastener includes a round, blind hole or pocket in its head. Installation and removal of the fastener is accomplished with a tool containing an eccentric segment on the end of a shaft. When rotated within the pocket, the eccentric segment displaces laterally relative to the shaft to provide a friction grip to the lateral wall of the pocket. The strength of the grip is proportional to the applied torque. Eccentric displacement allows rotation but prevents the tool from spinning out of the fastener thereby eliminating cam-out and surface damage resulting from contact with a spinning tool tip. The eccentric head of the tool can be made disposable and to shear off when a predetermined torque is reached. The smooth-sided round hole offers no purchase for commonly available tools; making the fastener tamper-resistance. In another embodiment, the fastener includes a raised portion in the pocket. A tool having a complementary opening shears off the raised portion at a predetermined torque.
