Abstract: The invention provides devices, systems and methods for tissue approximation and repair at treatment sites. The devices, systems and methods of the invention will find use in a variety of therapeutic procedures, including endovascular, minimally-invasive, and open surgical procedures, and can be used in various anatomical regions, including the abdomen, thorax, cardiovascular system, heart, intestinal tract, stomach, urinary tract, bladder, lung, and other organs, vessels, and tissues. The invention is particularly useful in those procedures requiring minimally-invasive or endovascular access to remote tissue locations, where the instruments utilized must negotiate long, narrow, and tortuous pathways to the treatment site. In addition, many of the devices and systems of the invention are adapted to be reversible and removable from the patient at any point without interference with or trauma to internal tissues.

Abstract: A vehicle mounted jack system includes a plurality of jacks each disposed adjacent a respective tire of a vehicle and a plurality of mounting brackets for mounting each jack in a vertical position to underside of such vehicle. A control circuits includes a handheld portion having a plurality of switch means each associated with a respective one of the plurality of jacks and manually and selectively operable for generating a first signal to initiate movement of the respective jack into the extended position and a second signal to initiate movement of the respective jack into the retracted position. A drive system, which is responsive to the first and second signal, moves the plurality of jacks between the retracted and the extended position. The system is employable for changing tires, annunciating that a motor vehicle has likely been stolen and for at least monitoring tire pressure.
