20090233269Detection of a Target in a Preservative Solution - This invention relates to methods, articles and compositions useful in detecting target substances in an alcoholic preservative solution, and for identifying sensors useful for binding to such targets. The methods allow for the simultaneous performance of sufficient fixation of a sample and binding of a detectable sensor to a target of interest in the sample. In one aspect, a method is provided that comprises contacting a sample suspected of containing a target with a detectable sensor molecule known to bind to such target in an alcoholic preservative solution. The method maybe performed in multiplex form to permit simultaneous analysis of a plurality of targets. Methods for identifying a sensor capable of binding to a desired target in an alcoholic preservative solution are also provided. An alcoholic preservative solution comprising one or more such detectable sensors is also provided. Also provided is a sample comprising a bound sensor provided by such a process. Also provided are kits useful for such methods.09-17-2009

20080221600ISOLATION DEVICES FOR THE TREATMENT OF ANEURYSMS - Device, systems and methods are provided to isolate aneurysms, particularly at bifurcations, while maintaining adequate blood flow through nearby vessels. These devices are deliverable to a desired target area and maintain position in a desired orientation so as to occlude flow in some aspect while allowing flow in others. In addition, devices, systems and methods are provided to occlude blood vessels, such as endoleaks, to improve the isolation of aneurysms.09-11-2008
20090299393RETRIEVAL SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR USE THEREOF - The devices and methods described herein relate to improved structures for removing obstructions from body lumens. Such devices have applicability in through-out the body, including clearing of blockages within the vasculature, by addressing the frictional resistance on the obstruction prior to attempting to translate and/or mobilize the obstruction within the body lumen12-03-2009

20090076466Sutureless venous access port - Disclosed is a compact, low profile venous access port to be implanted below the skin of a patient and coupled to a (e.g., subclavian) vein by a Seldinger technique, or the like, so that a supply of fluid medication can be delivered directly to the patient's circulatory system via a medication delivery lumen. The target axis of the venous access port herein disclosed advantageously makes a small acute angle with to the patient's skin (as opposed to the 03-19-2009
20110270020Linear tension internal organ supports and method for using the same - Compact and efficient linear tension internal organ supports and methods of maneuvering the organ supports so as to manipulate (i.e., lift, suspend or displace) an internal organ or soft tissue within the general operating field within the abdominal cavity of a patient undergoing surgery. In certain preferred embodiments, an internal organ support is attached directly to the organ or tissue to be manipulated or to the abdominal wall within the abdominal cavity. In other preferred embodiments, a displacement force is applied to an internal organ support from a location outside the patient's abdomen by way of linear tension lines attached to the organ support and removed from the abdominal cavity through a small exit incision made through the abdominal wall. By virtue of the internal organ supports and methods herein disclosed, only a single, small entry incision need be made so that only a small scar or no visible scar at all will remain on the patient's abdominal skin after the internal organ supports have been removed from the abdominal cavity following the surgery.11-03-2011

20110282860DATA COLLECTION, TRACKING, AND ANALYSIS FOR MULTIPLE MEDIA INCLUDING IMPACT ANALYSIS AND INFLUENCE TRACKING - A system is disclosed for data collection, media analysis, and web tracking. The collected data may include a broad search for a reference database and a narrow search for a comparative database. A contact relationship management database is used to store and distribute profiles for individuals and companies. An RSS feed database may update frequently and provide relevant search results. The system may analyze the collected data and tracking of that data. Analysis may be used to identify relevant data. Profiling of users and businesses may be used for targeting and generating profile data that may include specific information for a user or business. Monitoring and/or tracking may be used for identifying changes in data. The system may provide an analysis of impact of an event/source based on user impressions or web hits in view of a particular event/source. The impact may include a social influence value. In another embodiment, a return on investment (“ROI”) in view of the influence is provided.11-17-2011
