The loop portion of the first suture construct so routed is positioned adjacent to a superior surface of the tissue and the free limbs of the first suture construct so routed extend through an inferior surface of the tissue. A second suture construct, separate from the first suture construct, is inserted within the loop portion of the first suture construct such that two free limbs of the second suture construct extend from the loop portion of the first suture construct. The second suture construct comprises a plurality of braided filaments and possesses a substantially rectangular cross-sectional profile, and does not include a suture core surrounded by the braided filaments.

Abstract: A join request from a patient computing system identifies a patient, who is assigned to a waiting pool exposing each patient therein to a provider admitting computing system. An admission selection of the patient is received from the provider admitting computing system, and an audiovisual admissions teleconference between the patient computing system and the provider admitting computing system is initiated. A practitioner selection assignment from the provider admitting computing system assigns the patient to a provider practitioner, and in response, the patient is assigned to a provider practitioner pool associated with a provider practitioner computing system. The provider practitioner pool exposes each patient therein to the provider practitioner computing system. The audiovisual admissions teleconference is terminated.

Abstract: This invention relates to a unique food preservation system that is used to extend the shelf life of food items by automatically modulating the gas composition within an air-tight container to the optimal atmospheric conditions for the specific food item(s) being stored in these containers. In order to extend the shelf life of food items, the optimal levels of carbon dioxide and oxygen must be maintained within the food storage container at all times. This is accomplished by constant real-time monitoring of the atmosphere within the food storage container and actively as well as passively controlling the atmosphere.

Abstract: This disclosure describes a video room system that can generate a video room utilizing a cross-application technique by accessing functions of one application based on user interaction within a separate application. In particular, the disclosed systems can generate a video room that remains open for access by a creator device and invitee devices in a casual come-and-go fashion. The disclosed systems can further generate a video room link that is distributable intelligently to grant access to the video room to invitee devices. The disclosed systems can also automatically surface a video room link to an invitee device based on determining a digital connection between the invitee device and the creator device.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a composite container comprising a bottom film layer and a top film layer at least partially adhered to the bottom film layer. The top film layer is scored to form at least one resealable flap and at least one pull tab which is not adhered to the bottom film layer. The bottom film layer comprises at least one cavity opening. A cardboard layer is adhered on its lower surface to the upper surface of the top film layer, wherein the cardboard layer has at least one cavity opening which is substantially aligned with the scoring of the top film layer resealable flap and the cardboard layer is perforated to define a perimeter of at least one pull tab which is substantially aligned with and adhered, on its underside, to the upper surface of the top film layer pull tab.

Abstract: An oxygen pressure relief and ventilation system includes a flow fuse fluidly coupled downstream of a pressure regulator. The pressure regulator is operatively coupled to an oxygen tank, and the oxygen tank is located in an unpressurized compartment of an aircraft. A pressure relief valve is fluidly coupled downstream of the flow fuse. A ventilation pathway fluidly couples the unpressurized compartment with a pressurized compartment. The flow fuse and the pressure relief valve are configured to cooperatively mitigate downstream flow of pressurized oxygen if the pressure regulator fails. The ventilation pathway is configured to allow air from the pressurized compartment to pass through to the unpressurized compartment for diluting a concentrated oxygen in the unpressurized compartment.
