Abstract: The present invention includes devices and methods for pacing contact, lead, conduit or other medical fixture placement in tissues or organs. The invention features an articulating multiple suction foot device, comprising an inner vacuum conduit and foot slidingly contained within an outer vacuum conduit and foot, with the inner vacuum conduit and foot configured to extend beyond the outer vacuum suction foot, and to be further articulated once extended; as well as a separate tissue or waste removal vacuum assembly that extends within the inner vacuum conduit to the inner vacuum foot to remove cut tissue prior to its advancement beyond the outer vacuum suction foot.

Abstract: The disclosed embodiments provide a system for processing data. During operation, the system identifies content shared within an online system and interactions between users of the online system and the content that match behavioral criteria and content-based criteria in a set of rules. Next, the system aggregates the content and the interactions into trends in the content and the interactions, predictions associated with the content and the interactions, and recommendations for moderating the content and the interactions. The system then outputs representations of the trends, the predictions, and the recommendations in a user interface. Finally, the system receives, via the user interface, an action to be performed on a subset of the content and updates sharing of the content within the online system based on the action.

Abstract: The present invention includes devices and methods for lead, conduit or other medical fixture placement in tissues or organs. The device is configured to permit the placement foot, such as a suction foot, to articulate to a desired position with respect to the target tissue, while the lead, conduit or other medical fixture is releasably attached to the placement foot to permit it to be released from the placement foot after stabilization on the target tissue site. In a preferred embodiment, the invention features an articulating dual suction foot device, an inner lead conduit or guide and foot contained within an outer lead conduit or guide and foot, with the inner conduit or guide configured to extend from the outer conduit or guide, and to be further articulated once extended.
