Abstract: In a first example, a nasopharyngeal mirror device includes a handle, a convex mirror configured to move with respect to the handle, and an anti-fogging device configured to reduce condensation on the convex mirror. In a second example, a method includes inserting a convex mirror of a nasopharyngeal mirror device into a mouth of a patient and moving the convex mirror with respect to a handle of the nasopharyngeal mirror device such that a tissue of interest of the patient is viewable within the convex mirror. The method also includes capturing an image of the tissue of interest with a camera of the nasopharyngeal mirror device while the tissue of interest is viewable within the convex mirror.

Abstract: Described herein is system and method for enabling real-time alerts and notifications for clinical procedures. In one embodiment, a notification system is created based on a pre-existing template. The user interface receives alerts and notifications from the system, and may in turn, initiate notifications and alerts to other users with different devices. Individual medical practices can create custom templates in the system to meet their specific requirements. Multiple methods of alerting are supported and multiple user devices are supported such as mobile devices, motion sensing devices, optical head-mounted displays, etc.

Abstract: Described herein is system and method for enabling a real-time clinical procedure timeline. In one embodiment, a patient timeline is created based on a pre-existing template. The user interface displays the steps for an admitted patient with a given diagnosis, tracks the time for completion of each step, and allows users to add notes, attach documents, and build reports. Individual medical practices can create custom templates in the system to meet their specific requirements. Multiple methods of accessing and using the system are supported such as mobile devices, motion sensing devices, optical head-mounted displays, etc.

Abstract: A method for creating multiple tagged clinical trial data and a tool therefrom is disclosed. The method comprises receiving clinical trial information from different sources, and removing redundancies from the clinical trial information received from the plurality of sources to form collated clinical trial data. The method further involves baseline tagging of the collated clinical data using non-indication parameters, creating a disease specific list of indication parameters, where indication parameters are classified into at least main indication parameters and sub indication parameters. The method further includes advanced tagging of the collated clinical trial data using indication parameters and creating multiple tagged clinical data using baseline tagging and advanced tagging.

Abstract: In one aspect, the invention provides a clinical trial information management tool. The tool comprises an interface with a multiple tagged clinical trial database; a user interface for receiving user inputs, a search engine to query the multiple tagged clinical trial database in one or more levels based on user inputs; a display platform to display results from the query in one or more views; an analytics engine to provide at least one of parameter based analysis and graphical analysis; and a personalization platform to store the query and the results. The tool provides the advantage through the rapid, facile and user-friendly manner in which clinical trial information from a wide variety of sources may be searched, analyzed and reported by a user, which allows for easy strategizing regarding clinical trial related matters, among other unique advantages.

Abstract: A laryngeal mask including a dome and an airway tube extending from a proximal passage through the dome. The dome has a periphery about its base including at least one receptacle. An inflatable cuff of flexible material has a first longitudinal edge and a second longitudinal edge. The longitudinal edges are joined to form a tube forming the cuff. The cuff substantially encircles the periphery of the dome. The mask has at least one buttress adjacent to the periphery at a distal portion of the dome. The tube is fused adjacent the buttress of the dome, and the fusing is below a posterior surface of the dome wherein, upon deflation of the cuff, the buttress upturns the cuff to facilitate insertion of the laryngeal mask into a patient.
