Abstract: Disclosed herein are devices (e.g., needles (e.g., hollow needles), hollow staples, articles, apparatuses, and systems), kits, and methods for treating skin and skin conditions, for example, by promoting skin tightening, such as by reducing skin laxity and reducing tissue area or volume.

Abstract: A monitor mount is configured to detachably secure a first monitor and/or a second monitor individually or concurrently. The first monitor and the second monitor may have different sizes. Any of the monitors may be a patient monitor.

Abstract: A monitor mount is configured to detachably secure a monitor via a coupling which can be disengaged with an actuator. The monitor mount may be configured to detachably secure the monitor to a support structure via a clip. The monitor may have a reversible cover. The monitor may have a simplified back portion. The simplified back portion may omit couplings or electrical connections such that a back surface of the monitor is continuous. A rack is configured to detachably secure a module therein in multiple positions in which the module is mechanically connected to the rack and electrically connected or disconnected to the rack. The monitor may be a patient monitor and the module may be a patient monitoring module.

Abstract: A connector system includes a male connecter including a male housing defining a recess and a plurality of pins arranged within the recess; and a female connector including a female housing configured to be insertable into the recess of the male housing. The female housing includes: front and back portions; a pair of longitudinal sides that extend from the front portion to the back portion; a planar side that extends from the front portion to the back portion, the planar side connecting first ends of the pair of longitudinal sides; a rounded side that extends from the front portion to the back portion, the rounded side connecting second ends of the pair of longitudinal sides; a front surface defined at the front portion by the pair of longitudinal sides, the planar side, and the rounded side; and a plurality of sockets formed at the front surface.

Abstract: In one aspect, the dual bevel needle can include a hollow tube having a proximal end, a distal end, a first lateral side, and a second lateral side opposite the first lateral side; a first needle point at the distal end of the hollow tube; a second point at the distal end of the hollow tube; a first bevel on each of the first lateral side and the second lateral side, the first bevel comprising a first bevel angle relative to a longitudinal axis of the tube; and a second bevel on each of the first lateral side and the second lateral side, the second bevel having a second bevel angle relative to the longitudinal axis of the tube, wherein the first and second bevels each form a portion of an ellipse, the ellipse having an inner cutting edge and terminating in the first and second needle points at the distal end of the tube, the second bevel angle being shallower than the first bevel angle, the second bevel being located adjacent the proximal end of the first bevel, and the inner cutting edge converging to a narr
