| 20080269701 | Laminated Material and Skin Contacting Products Formed Therefrom - A laminated material suitable for use in forming skin contacting products is disclosed. The laminated material comprises three distinct layers including a fabric layer, a film layer and an adhesive layer therebetween. The adhesive layer substantially continuously bonds the fabric layer to the film layer. | 10-30-2008 |
| 20080294129 | Flushable Body Waste Collection Pouches, Pouch-in Pouch Appliances Using the Same, and Methods Pertaining Thereto - A flushable biodegradable pouch having water-dispersible fibers along at least a portion of the outer surface of the pouch's cover layer provided with a water-soluble hydrophilic coating. The pouch's cover layer is water-disintegratable, and the water-soluble hydrophilic coating is a lubricating agent capable of becoming slippery when exposed to water and, upon subsequent drying, again becoming water-soluble upon re-exposure to water. As such, the hydrophilic coating serves as a rewettable, redesolving lubricating agent. | 11-27-2008 |
| 20090088711 | Multi-Layer Odor Barrier Tube, and Combination Odor Barrier Tube and Odor Barrier Collection Bag - A multi-layer odor barrier catheter tube for a fecal drainage catheter. The external surface has a low coefficient of friction, as does the internal surface. The layers of the catheter tube may be co-extruded, or formed as a heat-laminated film rolled into a cylindrical shape and heat-welded. A flexible scrim may be included intermediate the first and third layers. One or more tie layers may be included between at least one of the first and second layers, or the second and third layers. A combination of a multi-layer odor barrier catheter tube with an odor barrier collection bag is also described. | 04-02-2009 |

| 20120090698 | Pressure control and feedback system for an adjustable foam support apparatus - A pressure control and feedback system for an adjustable foam support includes a vacuum pump for drawing air from a hermetically sealed foam core to reduce the firmness of the core. A valve opens to permit and closes to block the passage of air into and out of the core. A remotely operated controller generates control signals to selectively start and stop operation of the pump, and selectively open and close the valve, which provides a selected level of pneumatic pressure and corresponding firmness in the core. A pressure sensor detects the pressure and firmness of the core and generates representative feedback signals. An indicator device responsive to the feedback signals indicates the sensed firmness of the core. Software calibrates the system and provides the system with intelligent operation. | 04-19-2012 |

| 20080249394 | METHOD FOR IMPROVED ROTATIONAL ALIGNMENT IN JOINT ARTHROPLASTY - A method for improved rotational alignment of the bones in joint surgery is described. The method involves the tracking of the relative motion of a third bone in with respect to the movement of the first and second bone. In one aspect of the invention, the motion of the patella is used to derive the axis of rotation of the femoral and tibial components in total knee arthroplasty, either alone or in combination with other techniques. | 10-09-2008 |
| 20090012370 | POSTERIOR TISSUE RETRACTOR FOR USE IN HIP REPLACEMENT SURGERY - The teachings provided herein are generally directed to a posterior retractor comprising a handle section; and, a retraction section having an anchoring element. In most embodiments, the handle section comprises a proximal region, a mid-region, and a distal region. And, the length of the handle section can be sufficient to position a hand-held portion of the proximal region of the handle section outside of a surgical site during use of the posterior retractor in a hip arthroplasty procedure. The teachings include the use of the posterior retractor in a hip arthroplasty procedure. | 01-08-2009 |

| 20080262499 | Self Retaining Acetabular Component Alignment Device for Total Hip Arthroplasty - A spring-loaded, self-retaining, clamp like alignment device used to guide the placement of the acetabular component during total hip arthroplasty is disclosed. The device comprises two longitudinal elements: the first longitudinal element has a proximal end with a handle, a groove within and a spring loaded into the groove. The second longitudinal element has a distal end to which an acetabular component is attached and a mid-section that fits into the groove of the first longitudinal element and a proximal end with a knob. When the hook present at the distal end of the first longitudinal element is placed into the sciatic notch in the pelvic bone and the proximal end clipped to the mid-section of the second longitudinal element, the acetabular component at the distal end of the second longitudinal element is consistently positioned in the acetabulum at 45-degree abduction and 20-degree anteversion. While the surgeon impacts the acetabular component into place the spring located in the proximal end of the first longitudinal element maintains the proper alignment of the acetabular component and keeps the deep part of the clamp from injuring structures traversing the sciatic notch. | 10-23-2008 |
