Abstract: A disposable manual irrigation pump system comprises a manual foot pump operatively coupled to a fluid reservoir and an associated intraprocedural device. The pump system is configured to provide a substantially continuous fluid supply at a desired flow rate from the fluid reservoir to the associated intraprocedural device along a first direction without backflow of fluid along a direction opposite the first direction.

Abstract: A golf putter including a plurality of physical and visual aids for assisting the golfer to more consistently assume a good head and body position and to better putt a golf ball toward a remote hole. The putter head is provided with a viewing port and a first linear marking to aid in aligning the ball with a remote hole. Preferably the putter head includes a detachable flange that includes a substantially transparent insert which constitutes the viewing port. The putter head has a first linear marking thereon and the transparent insert has a second linear marking thereon. The first and second markings are alignable with a remote hole to ensure that the golf ball is putted in the correct direction toward the hole.

Abstract: A golf putter including a plurality of visual aids for assisting the golfer to more consistently assume a good head and body position and to better putt a golf ball toward a remote hole. The putter head is engaged with any one of a plurality of detachable flanges that have any one of a number of different shapes. The shaped flanges are designed to aid the golfer in directing the golf ball toward a remote hole. The putter is provided with first and second linear markings to assist in soling the putter head. The second linear marking is disposed rearwardly of the first linear marking and at a position vertically above or below the first linear marking. When viewed from above, the first and second linear markings are aligned when the putter head is correctly soled and the golfer can sole the putter by aligning the first and second markings. The detachable flange may also include a first reflective surface and a second non-reflective surface.

Abstract: A golf putter including a plurality of physical and visual aids for assisting the golfer to more consistently assume a good head and body position and to better putt a golf ball toward a remote hole. The putter head is engaged with one of a plurality of detachable flanges. The flanges all have different lengths, weights and shapes and are selectively engaged with the putter head to change its center of gravity and thereby change the characteristics of the putter. The golfer selectively engages the appropriate one of the plurality of flanges to give the putter head the type of characteristics that best suit his personal putting abilities and deficiencies and is thereby aided in correctly and accurately striking the golf ball. Each of the detachable flanges is provided with a first reflective surface and a second non-reflective surface. The reflective surfaces are all provided with a second linear marking thereon.

Abstract: A golf putter having a head which has a highly reflective upper surface. The reflective surface on the putter allows the golfer to see his eye position reflected in the putter. The putter is positioned adjacent the golf ball so that the reflected image of the golfer's eyes lays slightly behind and below the golf ball. As the golfer putts, he or she maintains the set-up position of their head to keep their eyes in the same position on takeaway as they were when they initially addressed the ball. This helps the golfer keep his head and body in the correct position while they are putting and helps them develop a more consistent putting stroke.

Abstract: A cardiac pacing lead for attaching a pulse generating device, such as a pacemaker or defibrillator to the heart, and a method for attaching and using the same. The cardiac pacing lead includes a passive fixation, such as tines for engaging trabecular tissue; and an active fixation, such as a helical screw, for engaging myocardial tissue. The active fixation is selectively movable between a first position where it lies within the flexible tube, and a second position where it extends at least partially from the tube at one end of the flexible tube and can be screwed into the heart tissue. The active fixation is only engaged once heart tissue with suitable conductivity properties is located by tests conducted through the electrically active tip of the active fixation.
