    摘要: A catamenial collector, in an embodiment, has a receptacle with a flexible hollow rim capable of inflation and has a handle with substantially the length of a female vagina. The collector may have a string, in one embodiment, extending through the rim and at least a portion of the handle so that a pulling force axially applied to a string end causes the receptacle to close. In another embodiment, an elastic member is so configured that deflation of the rim also causes the receptacle to close. The collector and associated methods of use provide for the sanitary collection and disposal of menses.

    摘要: An apparatus designed to clean surfaces and to recycle a cleaning fluid. The apparatus has a hand-holdable housing that includes a head with a distal end through which cleaning solution may be impelled. The apparatus further has a pump for both impelling and urging cleaning fluid back through a return path. The pump has a flexible membrane and a pump drive mechanism in which two pistons drive the flexible membrane. The cleaning fluid includes a foaming-resistant composition that has an abrasive agent; a shear thinning fluid matrix, and a non-foaming means.

    摘要: A catheter reel apparatus facilitating one-person, single-handed control of catheter movement along a guidewire is provided in an embodiment. In a preferred embodiment, the reel has two grooves of different dimensions. The first groove is sized to carry a portion of the guidewire not within a catheter lumen while the second groove is sized to carry a portion of the catheter, which has the guidewire inserted in the lumen. As the reel is rotated, the proximal end of the catheter is deployed from the device through an exit provided by a housing. Continued rotation pays out the desired length of catheter and the catheter is guided, without guidewire moving into or out of the housing, to a desired location. When the catheter is to be withdrawn, the reel is rotated in the opposite sense to catheter deployment.

    摘要: A user input for controlling acceleration of a vehicle. The user input has a movable member capable of deflection by a user such that a degree of deflection corresponds to a specified velocity commanded by the user. The correspondence between the degree of deflection and the specified velocity may include a plurality of zones, each zone characterized by a distinct sensitivity that may be capable of customization for a specific user. The user input may also include a neutral position of the movable member, wherein a substantially sudden motion of the movable member to the neutral position causes a slewed slowing of the vehicle.
