Abstract: A device for connecting two spinal rods is provided. In one form, the device includes two clamping devices for receiving and locking to spinal rods and a central bridge or plate member that couples the clamping devices. In one aspect, the clamping devices are unitary members with deflectable jaw portions that snap-fit and then locked by operation of actuators. In another aspect, one or both of the clamping devices are adjustably coupled to the central bridge or plate member to allow at least translation and pivoting or rotation of the clamping devices relative to a central axis of the elongate bridge member. The clamping devices may be coupled to the bridge or plate member with the same locking actuator that causes clamping of the clamp device so that the positions of the clamp device and the spinal rod are locked into place by manipulation of only a single locking actuator.

Abstract: A network device is described that concurrently executing more than one instance of an operating system on a single processor. Each of the instances of the operating system executes completely independent of the other instances. In this way, disparate instances may exist for the same operating system or for different operating systems. The techniques allow the processor to concurrently execute, for example, an instance of the operating system may emulate a routing engine and an instance of the operating system may emulate an interface controller. A hyper scheduler performs context switches between the operating systems to enable the processor to concurrently execute the instances of the operating system. The techniques may provide a low cost alternative to employing multiple processors within a network device, such as a router, to execute multiple independent operating systems.

Abstract: Methods and systems of maintaining, evaluating, and providing therapy to a lung ex vivo. The methods and systems involve positioning the lung in an ex vivo perfusion circuit; circulating a perfusion fluid through the lung, the fluid entering the lung through a pulmonary artery interface and leaving the lung through a left atrial interface; and ventilating the lung by flowing a ventilation gas through a tracheal interface. Maintaining the lung for extended periods involves causing the lung to rebreath a captive volume of air, and reaching an equilibrium state between the perfusion fluid and the ventilation gas. Evaluating the gas exchange capability of the lung involves deoxygenating the perfusion fluid and measuring a time taken to reoxygenate the perfusion fluid by ventilating the lung with an oxygenation gas.

Abstract: A light diffusion device for uniformly dispersing light across a gauge dial plate having indicia associated therewith includes an annular member of transparent or translucent material having front and rear annular surfaces each merging with an outer peripheral surface and an inner peripheral surface. The inner peripheral surface is a frusto-conical widening in a direction from the rear surface toward the front surface to reflect light rays toward the outer peripheral and front surfaces thereby effecting uniform illumination across the front surface, and the outer peripheral surface and frusto-conical inner peripheral surface share a coincident axis of generation.
