20100143466 | MODIFIED RELEASE IBUPROFEN DOSAGE FORM - The present invention is a solid dosage form for oral administration of ibuprofen comprising a modified release formulation of ibuprofen which provides an immediate burst effect and thereafter a sustained release of sufficient ibuprofen to maintain blood levels at least 6.4 μg/ml over an extended period of at least 8 hours following administering of a single dose. | 06-10-2010 |
20140014104 | Nasal Drug Delivery Device - A compound delivery device for delivering a plume derived from a propellant and a drug formulation. The drug formulation is in an intranasal dosage form in the form of powder, suspension, dispersion or liquid. The propelled intranasal dosage form is deposited within the olfactory region of the nasal cavity. The drug deposited within the olfactory region is delivered to the brain avoiding the blood-brain-barrier. Hydrofluoroalkane propellant from a pressurized canister is channeled to a diffuser and drug-containing chamber where the intra-nasal dosage form is aerosolized. The aerosolized intra-nasal dosage form passes through a nozzle thus delivering a plume to the olfactory region of a user's nasal cavity. | 01-16-2014 |
20140083424 | Nozzles for Nasal Drug Delivery - A nozzle for use in delivering a mixture of aerosol propellant and drug formulation. The nozzle includes a drug product inlet configured to receive a mixture of aerosolized propellant and an intranasal dosage form. The inlet is disposed at the proximal end. A nozzle body is secured to the drug product inlet. Two or more channels are disposed within the body. Two or more orifice apertures are disposed at the distal end of the nozzle. | 03-27-2014 |
20150196491 | METHOD FOR PROVIDING MODIFIED RELEASE OF IBUPROFEN - A method for providing immediate and sustained release of ibuprofen to a subject, including administering, in a single dose, a modified release formulation of ibuprofen including a hydrophilic polymer, ibuprofen in solid dosage form uniformly dispersed in the polymer, and a dissolution additive and an inert formulation additive dispersed in the polymer. The hydrophilic polymer comprises a first hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) having a viscosity of about 100 cps and a second HPMC having a viscosity between about 200 cps to about 50,000 cps. The solid dosage form is a monolithic tablet that demonstrates a mean ibuprofen plasma concentration in a subject greater than or equal to 6.4 μg/ml within two hours of administration, and also demonstrates a mean ibuprofen plasma concentration in a subject greater than or equal to 6.4 μg/ml for at least 8 hours after administration. | 07-16-2015 |

20100063541 | OBLONG CROSS-SECTIONAL TISSUE FIXATION PEG - Disclosed are fixation devices that can be utilized to approximate and hold a soft tissue in, at, or near a bony insertion site. Disclosed devices can define an oblong cross-section, and can include ribs defining sharp edges on the periphery of one aspect of the cross section that can tightly fix the device to surrounding bone so as to avoid pull out of the device. Devices can also include ribs defining rounded ridges on the periphery of a second, perpendicular aspect of the cross section that can allow soft tissue or a portion of an approximation device, for instance a soft tissue graft or cellular scaffolding material, to be fixed within a bone without damage to the soft tissue. | 03-11-2010 |
20100063599 | DEVICE FOR SOFT TISSUE REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT - Disclosed are composite implantable tissue attachment devices comprising a mechanical reinforcing component and a cellular scaffold component. Disclosed devices include a wide, relatively flat portion for supporting long term repair of tissue. Disclosed devices can include a tapered portion at the end of the wide portions that can lead into a narrower elongated extension for aiding in placement of the device during a surgical procedure. The wide portion of the device can provide tensile strength along the longitudinal axis of the device as well as porosity. The wide devices can cover a larger surface area of a delivery site than standard suture. Disclosed materials can be utilized in, e.g., soft tissue repair such as tendon and ligament reconstruction and repair. | 03-11-2010 |

20090018655 | Composite Implant for Surgical Repair - Disclosed are biocompatible implants that combine a scaffold material for supporting long term repair of a soft tissue with an elongated member such as a suture for aiding in placement of the scaffold during a surgical procedure as well as for immediate mechanical reinforcement of a repair site. The components of an implant are combined such that a longitudinal load placed upon a composite structure can be borne primarily by the elongated member and the scaffold material is isolated from the longitudinal load. Thus, the scaffold material of a composite can be protected from damage due to applied loads and stresses during and following a surgical procedure. | 01-15-2009 |

20130035721 | SURGICAL ANCHOR - Surgical anchors can be utilized to approximate and hold soft tissue in, at, or near a boney insertion site. In some examples, the surgical anchors include a receiving body and a fixation member such as, for example, a fixation screw. The receiving body may include an elongated connecting member and an aperture defined at a distal end of the elongated connecting member. The aperture may be configured to receive a surgical attachment element. Depending on the configuration, the receiving body may be connected to the fixation member via the elongated connecting member such that the fixation member can move relative to the receiving body. Movement of the fixation member relative to the receiving body may allow a user to control and adjust the amount of tension placed on the surgical attachment element, which may enhance the mechanics of a repair operation. | 02-07-2013 |

20080237989 | Pai gow blackjack - The present invention provides a game for play between a player and a dealer. The player places a wager. Three player cards are distributed and arranged into a two-card player hand and a one-card player hand. A player total is calculated by summing the values of the cards in the two-card player hand. Three dealer cards are similarly distributed to the dealer, which the dealer arranges into a two-card dealer hand and a one-card dealer hand. A dealer total is then calculated by summing the values of the cards in the two-card dealer hand. A payout is awarded to the player based on the wager when the player total exceeds the dealer total and the one-card player hand has a higher value than the one-card dealer hand. Preferably, the cards are arranged such that neither the player total nor the dealer total exceeds twenty-one. | 10-02-2008 |

20140352028 | KIT AND METHOD FOR FACILITATING TYING A TIE - Based on a person's neck size, torso length measured from the neck to the waistline, and a constant that depends upon the type of knot that will be tied, a position for attaching a marker on a rear surface of the tie can be determined. The marker then provides a reference point to indicate where a broader portion of the tie should cross over the narrower portion after the tie is looped around a person's collar. This approach ensures that the tie will always be tied with the correct length of the broad end hanging below the knot. | 12-04-2014 |
