Abstract: A handle assembly for an accessory of a medical device support system. The handle assembly includes a handle, an interface device, a conductive coating, and a connector. The interface device is in an outer surface of a generally tubular section of a handle housing of the handle and is configured to receive an input or transmit an output associated with the medical device support system. The conductive coating is on the inner surface of the generally tubular section and is configured to transmit one or more of power, ground, control signals, and communication signals corresponding to the input or the output of the interface device. The connector is connected to the conductive coating and is configured to transmit the one or more of the power, ground, control signals, and communication signals from the conductive coating to another part of the accessory and/or the medical device support system.

Abstract: A multi-channel selector valve includes a housing, a rotor at least partially disposed within the housing and rotatable about an axis of rotation, the rotor having a first cam surface, and a stator at least partially disposed within the housing. The housing includes a plurality of flow controllers arranged about the axis of rotation of the rotor, each flow controller including an aperture, and a blocking member disposed adjacent to the cam surface, the blocking member selectively movable relative to the aperture to open and permit flow through the aperture.

Abstract: A surgical table includes a base, a tabletop, first and second frameworks, a cable, and a cable take-up mechanism. The first and second frameworks are moveable relative to one another to move the tabletop relative to the base in a first direction and a second direction that is opposite the first direction. The cable has a first end, a second end that is opposite the first end, and an intermediate portion. The first and second ends are mounted to the respective first and second frameworks. The cable take-up mechanism includes a constant-force spring coupled to the intermediate portion of the cable to take up slack in the cable as the first and second frameworks move relative to one another to move the tabletop relative to the base.

Abstract: A momentum arresting ramp that includes a plurality of steps that each includes a slider receiving surface and a transition surface. The steps may enable a device with wheels to be moved down the ramp by a user, without inconvenient gravity building momentum of the device down the ramp. For example, the steps may be spaced apart along a first axis such that a first slider of the device is never in contact with one of the transition surfaces when a second slider of the device is in contact with another one of the transition surfaces. The configuration of the steps and the sliders may enable the device (e.g., a device heavy enough to typically require two users to unload using a planar ramp) to be easily and conveniently unloaded by a single user.

Abstract: A system includes a surgical lighthead including a lighthead housing including a plurality of light emitting elements therein that are arranged to emit light toward to a region of interest, and a handle attached to the lighthead housing. A sensor is integrated with the lighthead and configured to measure an ambient environmental condition at the lighthead. In other embodiments, a medical device support system includes a support and an ambient environmental condition sensor assembly coupled to the support column and including a sensor configured to measure an ambient environmental condition at the ambient environmental condition sensor assembly. A controller is operatively coupled to the sensor and configured to detect an ambient environmental condition based at least in part on the measured ambient environmental condition by the sensor.

Abstract: A load balancing arm for a medical device support system. The load balancing arm includes a proximal hub, an adjustable bearing element, a support arm, a spring and a link. A distal end of the support arm is configured to support a medical device load and a proximal end is pivotably mounted to a main bearing element for pivotable movement about a main pivot axis. The spring extends within a cavity of the support arm and is mounted to exert a biasing force between the main pivot axis and a distal end of the spring. The link has a proximal end pivotably mounted to the adjustable bearing element for pivotable movement about an adjustable pivot axis, and a distal end pivotably mounted to the distal end of the spring such that the biasing force exerted by the spring is transmitted through the link to the adjustable bearing element.

Abstract: A medical device suspension system includes a spindle extending along a longitudinal axis and a cable management cover surrounding the spindle. A gap is formed between the cable management cover and the spindle. A hub is rotatably mounted to the spindle and includes a housing. A top hub cover is disposed along the longitudinal axis between the hub and the cable management cover and defines an end of the gap, the top hub cover including a passage in fluid communication with an internal volume of the housing. The top hub cover is rotatable with respect to the spindle about the longitudinal axis. A cable is provided within the gap, the cable entering the gap at a fixed location about the longitudinal axis and passing into the housing through the passage. Rotation of the top hub cover about the longitudinal axis causes the passage to rotate about the longitudinal axis.

Abstract: A liquid sporulation method is described. A liquid culture is prepared by adding bacterial cells to a sporulation broth. The liquid culture is incubated. Spores are harvested from the incubated liquid culture by separating the spores from a culture supernatant. In some embodiments, the harvested spores are suspended in an aqueous medium to form a spore suspension. At least a portion of the culture supernatant is combined with the spore suspension.

Abstract: Knuckle joint assembly for a medical device support system. The knuckle joint assembly includes a cartridge assembly that includes a cartridge housing and a rotary bearing. The cartridge housing includes a bore having a central axis and a bearing mount in the bore. The rotary bearing is press fitted in the bearing mount and configured to receive axially therethrough a spindle to rotatably support the spindle about the central axis. The knuckle joint assembly includes a retaining clip and a retaining pin. The retaining clip is selectively movable to disengage and engage a groove in a spindle to respectively support or release the spindle along a central axis. The retaining pin is movable between a first position to allow movement of the retaining clip between positions but prevent removal of the retaining clip, and a second position to block movement of the retaining clip from the engaged position.
