The invention provides personal emergency response systems (PERS) with expanded life-saving capabilities. One embodiment of the invention provides a wearable PERS pendant that incorporates a cell phone transmitter or transceiver, a GPS location system, an accelerometer-based fall detector that automatically triggers an alert, and an electrocardiogram (ECG) recorder permitting a remote service center or medical personnel to receive and respond to transmitted alerts and electrocardiographic data.

The invention provides the use in combination of a heparin containing composition that has anticoagulant activity when used alone, such as an unfractionated heparin or low molecular weight heparin, in combination with an inhibitor of the anticoagulation activity/effect or effect of heparin, for the inhibition of metastasis.
摘要:
The invention provides a verticalness indicating apparatus for a bow in which the axial position of a pendulum member with respect to the housing in which the pendulum is mounted controls one or both of the color and intensity of light delivered via a light guide from the apparatus to one or more sight pins of a bow sight mounted on the bow. In this manner, the apparatus provides visual cues to the archer as to the vertical alignment of the bow contemporaneously with the archer's focus on the sight pin.

摘要:
The invention provides improved fiber optic probe assemblies which utilize a configuration of gradient index (GRIN) lenses to deliver light to a focal point and collect light for analysis from the same focal point. Also provided are methods for manufacturing the probe assemblies and related methods of spatially precise spectroscopy using the probe assemblies.
摘要:
The invention provides improved apparatuses and related methods for the detection of needle penetration into negative pressure corporal spaces such as the epidural space. In one aspect, the invention provides a needle hub that includes a fluid reservoir chamber and a plunger engaged therewith, so that insertion of the plunger into the chamber displaces fluid causing a hanging drop to form.

摘要:
The invention provides improved multi-fiber, fiber optic probe assemblies in which the component parts are adapted for rapid assembly with precise alignment. Some embodiments are adapted to illuminate and collect light from a sample at a particular depth while minimizing interference arising from within the probe assembly itself. Also provided are methods for manufacturing the probe assemblies and optical apparatuses including the probe assemblies.
摘要:
The invention provides methods for producing varying sizes and types of small firearm cartridge cases using earlier produced cartridge cases as work stock. The preexisting cartridge cases are subjected to a number of machining operations to obtain the desired different sizes and/or types of cartridge cases. The invention considerably shortens the production cycle and substantially decreases the costs of production versus the conventional method of manufacturing new cartridge cases.
