20090089934 | Gradient bed - A three dimensional matrix of air, other gas, or hydraulic fluid cells is proposed for the purpose of providing an ideal surface for load distribution. These cells will be arranged into layers stacked onto each other, with successive layers inflated to decreasing pressures. Neighboring cells can either communicate with each other freely, emulating an open cell construction, or be locked, emulating a closed cell construction, thus providing dynamic, as well as passive, control. | 04-09-2009 |
20090090671 | Apparatus to assist platelet manipulation to prevent and treat endovascular disease and its sequelae - The utilization of electrical potential and currents, as well as magnetic fields and mixed-phase reactions to effect efficient separation of platelets from blood without initiating platelet activation. | 04-09-2009 |
20090092692 | The use of onion extracts to prevent and treat acute and chronic cardiac and vascular complications and their sequelae, as well as to resolve hematomas | 04-09-2009 |
20090092693 | Platelet manipulation to prevent and treat endovascular disease and its sequelae, to prevent and treat arrhythmias and to prevent malignancy - Reduction of platelet counts to below 150 thousand per cubic millimeter by pharmacologic, mechanical, combined mechanical and pharmacological, or other means for the purpose of reducing the incidence and severity of vascular disease in at risk populations, for the stabilization and reversal of said disease in patients already known to suffer from such disease, as well as for the purpose of preventing and/or reducing the incidence and severity of sequelae related to such disease, whether preclinical, subclinical or overtly manifested, or whether it is presently understood to be related to said vascular disease or not. | 04-09-2009 |
20090092794 | Turgor shaping. Control of shape and rigidity through the use of pressure transmitting channel patterns (hydraulic channel arrays). - Layers of materials are laminated together preserving potential spaces that can transmit pressure generated by the use of gases or fluids. Alternatively, pre-manufactured pressure conduits of suitable dimensions and geometries are integrated between the layers. Transmission of pressure to such conduits results in expansion of a compacted device to a predetermined shape. Maintenance and/or variation of said pressure results in preservation of said shape, fine static control of surface geometries and even remote control of precise movements. Osmotic Pressure is not required to achieve Turgor type control. | 04-09-2009 |
20090093782 | Mask to compress face - An inflatable mask to distribute pressure evenly and seamlessly across the face for the purpose of reducing edema, wrinkling and aging. | 04-09-2009 |
20090093783 | Use of vacuum suction in conjunction with diapers. - The application of vacuum suction to a standard diaper in order to evacuate sufficient urine and provide sufficient air movement to dry excrement sufficiently to prevent skin breakdown and permit extension of the diaper's service cycle. | 04-09-2009 |
