Abstract: An adapter includes a substantially rigid body having a distal portion, a proximal portion, a central opening formed at least in part by an inner wall of the body, and a longitudinal axis extending substantially centrally through the opening. The distal portion includes an annular ring having a top surface and a ridge disposed opposite the top surface, the ridge extending substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis. The distal. The adapter also includes a seal configured to form a substantially fluid-tight seal with a surface of a fitting removably attachable to the adapter.

Abstract: A male bayonet connector includes a first shaft having a first distal end portion having a first sealing surface configured to form a substantially fluid-tight seal with a female connector, a first proximal end portion opposite the first distal end portion, a first lumen extending substantially along a first longitudinal axis of the first shaft from the first distal end portion to the first proximal end portion, and a first channel formed on an outer surface of the first shaft between the first sealing surface and the first proximal end portion. The first channel at least partially extends circumferentially around the first longitudinal axis. The first channel is also defined by a first distal wall, a first proximal wall opposite the first distal wall, and a first central region extending from the first distal wall to the first proximal wall. The first distal wall includes a first axial length that is at least one of curved or at an acute angle relative to the first longitudinal axis.

Abstract: A package is defined by an enclosure sized for retaining a medical diagnostic instrument and/or instrument supplies. A teaching aid, which simulates at least one medical target of interest, is directly integrated into the package for use with a medical diagnostic instrument. In at least one version, a sales demonstration aid is integrated with the packaging to highlight an enhanced field of view of the medical diagnostic instrument and provide a comparative field of view with other similar instruments.

Abstract: A blood pressure cuff is defined by a first sheet, having an opening, and a second sheet. The second sheet is attached to a bottom of the first sheet to form an interior inflatable portion between the first sheet and the second sheet, with the opening of the first sheet fluidly interconnecting the interior inflatable portion with an exterior of the cuff. The blood pressure cuff is made from a single type of material and can be recycled, biodegradable, or composted.

Abstract: A system configured to determine a characteristic of a patient includes a plurality of sensors, wherein each sensor of the plurality of sensors is configured to noninvasively determine a respective parameter of the patient, and wherein the parameter determined by each sensor is different from parameters determined by remaining sensors of the plurality of sensors. Such a system also includes a connector having a passage configured to direct pressurized fluid therethrough, wherein the plurality of sensors is connected to the connector.
