| 20120029530 | AED Chest Hair Removal Pads - A depilatory adhesive pad for removal of chest and torso hair from a patient in an emergency medical situation, whereafter AED electrodes may be placed. The pads comprise a first side of adhesive film and a second side exhibiting illustrative instructions for a user. The instructions provide a user with a brief explanation of how to use the pads and a visual representation of where the pads are placed on the patient's body. The pads are supplied in sealed packages of two for preparing a pair of clean surfaces for each AED lead. Within the package, both pads attach to a common sheet of nonstick material from which the adhesive pads may easily be separated. Once placed on the patient's torso, a removal tab is provided for pulling the adhered pad in a direction parallel to the skin surface, creating a tearing motion that removes the pad and hair attached thereto. Emergency responders may utilize the present invention to ensure AED leads obtain necessary electrical contact with the patient, particularly in emergency response situations wherein proper surface preparation is not provided. | 02-02-2012 |

| 20100198525 | System and Method for Interpolative Calibration - Systems and methods are provided for calibrating emission data or other information signals collected during a polymerase chain reaction (PCR), amplification reaction, assay, process, or other reaction. Calibration of multiple detectable materials can be achieved during a single cycle or run, or during a plurality of runs of the reaction. A reading from every well, container, or other support region of a sample support does not have to be taken. Interpolation can be used to determine values for emission data or other information signals that were not taken, or are unknown, using detected emission data, or other detected information signals. By calibrating the detected emission data and the interpolated data, a more accurate reading of emission data or information signal can be obtained. | 08-05-2010 |

| 20080209978 | System and Method for Instrument Calibration - Methods for generating a calibration factor and for calibrating are provided whereby interstitial spacing between support locations of a platform is used to embed a detectable material, emissions from which are used to generate the calibration factor. In some embodiments, the external space, outer perimeter, and other areas of a platform are used to embed detection materials for the normalization, calibration, correction, compensation, or other method of adjustment for detected emission data. The emission data can be taken from an assay, amplification, reaction, analysis, or other process, for example, from a PCR run or other reaction. By calibrating or adjusting the sample support with the detected emission data, a more efficient detection of the assay, amplification, reaction, analysis, or other process, can be achieved. | 09-04-2008 |
| 20080308160 | Device including inductively heatable fluid retainment region, and method - A device is provided that comprises one or more fluid retainment regions each having at least one wall, and one or more loops in heat-transfer communication with the at least one wall. Each of the loops can comprise an electrical conductor that surrounds the same or a different fluid retainment region. A device is provided that comprises one or more fluid retainment regions each having particulates disposed therein. A system is provided that includes a platen adapted to hold a device including fluid retainment regions and one or more electrical conductors in heat-transfer communication with the fluid retainment regions. Methods of heating a sample are also provided. | 12-18-2008 |
| 20110231132 | Systems And Methods For Baseline Correction Using Non-Linear Normalization - Systems and methods are provided for calibrating emission data or other information signals collected during a polymerase chain reaction (PCR), amplification reaction, assay, process, or other reaction. Calibration of multiple detectable materials can be achieved during a single cycle or run, or during a plurality of runs of the reaction. A reading from every well, container, or other support region of a sample support does not have to be taken. Interpolation can be used to determine values for emission data or other information signals that were not taken, or are unknown, using detected emission data, or other detected information signals.
