    摘要: Described are devices, methods, and systems useful in the treatment of fistulae, and in certain embodiments those having openings extending into the alimentary canal, such as anorectal fistulae. Illustratively, an anorectal fistula can be treated by placing a volumetric construct within the primary opening of the fistula. In certain embodiments, the volumetric construct can include a rolled remodelable material processed to form a substantially unitary body. Advantageous such remodelable materials can include collagenous extracellular matrix materials, such as small intestine submucosa.

    摘要: Described are medical products, systems, and methods for treating fistulae having a primary opening, such as in the alimentary canal. Certain methods of the invention include providing an implantable material including a compliant sheet form biocompatible material, and forcing this sheet form biocompatible material into the primary opening so as to deform the sheet form biocompatible material to conform to and block the primary opening. The biocompatible material preferably comprises a remodelable material, for example, a remodelable extracellular matrix material such as submucosa.

    摘要: Disclosed are fuel cell stacks incorporating heat exchangers capable of also acting as members to compress the fuel cell stack. Heat exchange through conduction is enabled by placing the heat exchanger into contact with the edges of the bipolar plates. A compressive force within the fuel cell stack is achieved by placing the heat exchanger in tension between the endplates at the opposite ends of the fuel cell stack.

    摘要: An apparatus includes a drive laser system producing an amplified light beam of pulses that travels along a drive axis; a beam delivery system that directs the amplified light beam of pulses toward a target region; a target material delivery system that provides a target mixture containing a target material in the target region; two or more sensors radially separated from a main axis that crosses the target region, the two or more sensors being configured to detect energy of ultraviolet electromagnetic radiation emitted from a plasma state of the target material when the amplified light beam of pulses intersects the target mixture; and a controller that receives the output from the two or more sensors. The controller is configured to estimate a relative radial alignment between the target mixture and the drive axis within the target region based on an analysis of the detected energy.

    摘要: A hydration device wherein a customized bladder is secured in a fixed position within a customized glove covering the topside surface area of a hand and the full 360-degree surface area of a forearm. A chamber stitched into an internal surface of the glove and a reclosable fastener secure the bladder's fixed position. The bladder is constructed with additional material on its sides, so that it conforms to the shape of and distributes the weight of its contents 360 degrees along the contours of the appendages. Two holes stitched into the outer portion of the glove expose the bladder's reclosable aperture for filling and a spout for extracting the bladder's contents. The bladder's contoured, 360-degree design impels the hydration device to lay fitted along the appendages with the spout purposefully positioned in a mouth's path during a normal arm swing, thereby promoting the user to maintain unaltered motion while drinking.
