    Abstract: A self-inflating resuscitation system formed from a self-inflating resuscitation bag and an exhalation indicator. In particular, the self-inflating resuscitation bag provides an exhalation indicator, which may be an audio or visual indicator, or both. The exhalation indicator enables a caregiver to more accurately determine whether a patient is being ventilated, unlike prior art self-inflating resuscitation bags, and helps to detect esophageal intubation in intubated patients or gastric trapping of gas in non-intubated patients undergoing positive pressure ventilation. In general, the device may be interposed between any source of positive pressure ventilation and any airway device to monitor exhalation as an indicator of adequacy of ventilation.

    Abstract: Fetal monitoring devices directed to a maternal bladder insert having at least one sensor on the distal end to detect fetal vital signs and uterine activity, and methods for detecting fetal vital signs and uterine activity using the device. The bladder insert is preferably a catheter with an integrated electrode for detecting fetal heart rate and uterine electomyography. Furthermore, the devices transmit this data to a monitoring system for diagnosis and observation.

    Abstract: A motorized drill is mounted in the handle (18) of a Kerrison Rongeur System utilized by a surgeon to perform surgical procedures on a patient, includes mechanism for moving the bit (25) supported in a rotating drill (12) toward the fixed upstanding foot (24) mounted at the remote end of the pistol-shaped handle (42) for removing bone which is located between the upstanding foot (24) and the drill bit (25). In another embodiment, the drill (133) is removably fixed in the handle (126) and the foot (120) moves relative to the drill bit (129). In either embodiment a trigger (22 or 124) operated by the surgeon actuates the foot (24 or 120)/drill (12 or 133) and the trigger (22 or 124) is biased to maximize the space between the foot (24 or 120) and the drill bit (25 or 129). The foot shape and dimension can be modified for perfecting given surgical procedures. In one embodiment the drill motor releasing mechanism includes a pinion gear and rack (72 and 84) performing the additional function of releasing the motor (12) locked in position in the handle (18).

    Abstract: Embodiments of the invention provide methods and devices for improved drainage systems and tubing. In one embodiment, a context-sensitive flow interrupter is provided that inhibits or facilitates flow of fluid when engaged with a mating holder. In another embodiment, outflow is optimized through control of the pressure in gas pockets in a tube, drainage tube or assembly. In one such embodiment, gas pockets are vented to inhibit excessive back-pressure or suction on an organ, vessel or cavity being drained. In another such embodiment, loops in the tubes are avoided by using a mechanical template in the form of a groove or peg assembly to thread the slack in the drainage tube to generate a monotonic gradient. In another embodiment, such as for active drainage systems, a bypass channel is provided that allows an applied vacuum to go around an obstruction created by the collection of fluid in an undrained dependent loop.
