    Abstract: Guidewires useful for cooperating with catheters may be actively steered and/or provide adjustable stiffness. Angle or curvature of a guidewire, and/or flexural modulus of a guidewire, may be adjusted at one or more locations between ends thereof. Variable stiffness segments may include electrically operated compressible and/or extensible materials. Multiple tensile elements may terminate at different body elements to adjust angle or curvature at multiple locations. Multiple circumferentially and/or radially contractible fiber regions may be provided and distributed over a length of a guidewire. Adjustable flexure elements arranged in or along a guidewire may be electrically operated. A flexible core member may be centrally arranged in a tubular body. A flexible guide wire or track may cooperate with electrically operable motor units.

    Abstract: A sensing module for monitoring dosage delivery of a vaporized material, and a portable vaporization unit including the sensing module, include a light sensor that detects disruptions in a light path across a vapor channel, the disruptions caused by the vaporized material flowing through the vapor channel. The light sensor includes a UV light source, which may emit 370 nm wavelength light, and a UV light detector that converts intensity of incident light in the light path into a signal. A microprocessor of the sensing module compares the signal to a baseline measurement to determine the concentration of a medicament in the vapor; then, using the flow rate and activation time of the device, the microprocessor determines the dosage and can perform monitoring and reporting actions based on the dosage. A measuring circuit measures fluctuations in resistance/impedance of a vaporization element to further determine flow rate and/or dosage.

    Abstract: Device for training people to a preferred posture during normal gait comprising of: at least a base for stabilizing at least one rail or post coupled to said base at least one gait regulating component, which will be arranged perpendicularly with respect to said rod or post and parallel to the floor surface, with said gait regulating component provided for defining an obstacle during the normal gait of a user to impose on the latter a predetermined movement of the foot, knee, and hip, facilitating the maintenance of the user's bust erected in a position of equilibrium, with the consequent lengthening of the pushing leg, the gradual transition of the weight of the user's body by the supporting foot posterior to that of the advancing leg, and the oscillation of the arm forward opposite to the lower limb that moves, with a final effect of a steady pace.
