  • Patent number: 11918770
    Abstract: Provided herein is an implant for delivering a hydrophobic active agent to a target tissue. The implant may include a scaffold defining a first surface and a second surface opposite the first surface, wherein the scaffold is substantially impermeable to a hydrophobic active agent, and a silicone tubing having a wall permeable to the active agent, wherein a first length of the silicone tubing is affixed to the first surface of the scaffold, wherein the two ends of the silicone tubing extend from the first surface, and wherein a path outlined by a second length of the tubing within the first length is circuitous. Also provided is a method of using the implant to locally deliver a hydrophobic active agent to a target tissue, and kits that find use in performing the present method.

  • Patent number: 11276483
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatus are disclosed aggregating at least two of vital signs data, diagnostic test results, medical data, and user parameters into a single medical record. In one example, a method may include periodically receiving vital signs data and/or diagnostic test results performed on a user; periodically receiving medical data in response to a medical examination of the user performed by a health care practitioner; receiving user parameters about the user; aggregating the vital signs data and/or diagnostic test results, the medical data, and the user parameters into a single medical record; associating the single personal medial record with the user; and storing the single personal medial record into a database of personal medical records. Life expectancy can be calculated. Data aggregation can be performed over time for comparison in real time to medical standard values allowing the user to set personal goals towards greater life expectancy.
