Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090062849Advanced functional biocompatible polymeric matrix used as a hemostatic agent and system for damaged tissues and cells - A hemostatic tissue sealant sponge and a spray for acute wounds are disclosed. The sponge comprises hydrophobically modified polymers that anchor themselves within the membrane of cells in the vicinity of the wound. The seal is strong enough to substantially prevent the loss of blood inside the boundaries of the sponge, yet weak enough to substantially prevent damage to newly formed tissue upon recovery and subsequent removal of the sponge. In examples, the polymers inherently prevent microbial infections and are suitable for oxygen transfer required during normal wound metabolism. The spray comprises hydrophobically modified polymers that form solid gel networks with blood cells to create a physical clotting mechanism to prevent loss of blood. In an example, the spray further comprises at least one reagent that increases the mechanical integrity of the clot. In another example, the reagent prevents microbial infection of the wound.03-05-2009

20090059004System and Method for Monitoring the Handling of a Shipment of Freight - The invention provides a system and method in which a lift truck that is equipped with a weighing device; a remote computer, an input device, and a display screen. The display screen is located on the lift truck in a position that permits the operator to see information displayed thereon. During use, the operator of the lift truck inputs identifying information for the piece of freight into the computer and obtains a weight of the piece of freight with the weighing device. This information is displayed on the display screen. A video imaging device disposed on the lift truck captures video image data of information displayed on the display device. The captured video image data is communicated from the lift truck to a receiver and is displayed on a second display device within the freight terminal. The displayed video images can be monitored to verify that lift truck operators are obtaining weight data for pieces of freight.03-05-2009
