A system for monitoring a plurality of return electrodes is disclosed. The system includes a plurality of return electrodes adhered to a patient and adapted to couple to an electrosurgical generator configured to generate an electrosurgical current. The system also includes a current monitor connected in series with each of the plurality of the return electrodes to measure a current signal passing therethrough and a processor coupled to each of the current monitors. The processor is configured to determine a desired current ratio and an actual current ratio for each of the plurality of the return electrodes as a function of the current passing through each of the plurality of the return electrodes. The processor is further configured to compare the desired current ratio and the actual current ratio.

A delivery device for a sanitary article includes an encapsulating material with a first layer and a second layer, enclosing an additive in a space formed by these layers of encapsulating material. The delivery device also includes a third layer, positioned above the second layer of encapsulating material. The third layer extends beyond and thereby covers substantially all of the edges of the second layer of encapsulating material. The third layer may also extend into and throughout the space formed between the first and second layers of encapsulating material that enclose the additive. The third layer thereby protects the user of a product comprising the delivery device from contact with the edges of the second layer of encapsulating material and also provides a means for attaching the delivery device to an article to keep it in place during transport storage and use. The invention also relates to sanitary articles, such as hygiene tissues and absorbent articles, containing the delivery device.

A medication administering device has mounted thereto a preparation syringe containing a preparation and comprises a substantially cylindrical syringe cover that supports the preparation syringe on the inner peripheral face side, a piston that presses on the rear end of the preparation syringe, and a piston case that surrounds the piston, that guides the outer peripheral face of the syringe cover in the direction of the piston on the substantially cylindrical inner peripheral face side, and that is mounted in a state in which the syringe cover is removable. The medication administering device comprises a syringe holder that guides the outer peripheral face of the preparation syringe in the direction of the piston on the cylindrical inner peripheral face side, and whose outer peripheral face is removably fitted together with the inner peripheral face of the syringe cover. A medication administering device comprises a syringe cover for mounting a preparation syringe to a main body, and has uneven faces of different angles of inclination on the end face of the syringe cover.

A double electrode connector for connecting to medical electrodes preferably in an impedance cardiography system includes a connector housing comprising a base having two holes therein of predetermined diameters arranged at predetermined location in the housing, with a first of the two holes associated with a first connector and a second of the two holes associated with a second connector of the double-electrode connector; a pair of biasing elements arranged along a surface of the housing so that each one of the pair of biasing elements is adapted for biasing against an electrode stud inserted in a respective hole of the two holes in the housing; a cable assembly including a twin wire cable and a bend relief, wherein each one of the pair of metal lugs is connected to one of the first connector and second connector, and the bend relief is arranged in a hole in the base to flexibly connect the twin wire cable to respective metal lugs of the pair of metal lugs. The biasing means may include handles to assist with attaching the double connector to two electrodes with a near-zero insertion force towards a patient.

A physiological sensor device is attachable to the skin of a person for collecting physiological signals generated by the person's body. The device includes a flexible front layer made of a material that does not conduct electricity and a flexible back layer made of a material that does not conduct electricity. A flexible intermediate layer made of a material that does not conduct electricity is sandwiched between and fixed to the front layer and the back layer. Electrodes and electrical conductors are fixed to a back side of the intermediate layer. Each of the electrodes is attached to one of the electrical conductors and all of the electrical conductors are attached to a single common connector that protrudes through a portal in the front layer. A conductive gel pad is adhered to and aligned with each of the electrodes and protrudes through a portals in the back layer to contact the skin of a person when the physiological sensor device is attached to the skin of a person. Each layer of the physiological sensor device has, when attached to a standing person's chest, a vertically extending portion with a horizontally extending portion located at a lower end of the vertically extending portion to give the physiological sensor device a shape like an inverted T. The vertically extending portion is intended to overly a person's sternum and is sized to comfortably fit either a male or female patient.

A data collection module for a physiological data collection system is a reusable device having a data collection port for connection to a source of physiological data that is in an analog format. The data collection port is in circuit communication with a plurality of bipolar amplifiers. The amplifiers are in circuit communication with a central processing unit provided with analog to digital converters, memory for signal processing and internal USB circuitry. The central processing unit is in circuit communication with a means for storing data and with a means for conveying the data in digital form via at least one of a USB port and a wireless communication system.

A fletching system and method that allows for quick and easy attachment of a fletching member to an arrow shaft provides a slotted arrow shaft adapted to receive a fletching member projecting therethrough and an internal plug member disposed within a hollow center of the arrow shaft in pressing friction fit engagement with a flanged base portion of the fletching member wherein the flanged base portion is secured between the plug member and an internal surface of a sidewall of the arrow shaft.

A crosslink is provided for joining two spine rods. The crosslink includes an elongate tie rod and a pair of housings at each end of the tie rod. The housings are preferably identical and have independent fasteners including a spine rod fastener and a tie rod fastener for connecting each housing to one of the spine rods and fixation of the tie rod. The tie rod fasteners include a pair of hemisphere clamps residing within a chamber in the housing which grip the tie rod therebetween to fix the tie rod to the clamp when a set screw applies a clamping force on the hemisphere clamps. The tie rod fastener is adjustable, so that both translation of the tie rod relative to the housings and rotation about three mutually perpendicular axes can be accommodated for orienting of the housings relative to the tie rod precisely where desired.

A power module base includes a heat radiation substrate formed of a high-thermal-conduction material, an insulating substrate joined to an upper surface of the heat radiation substrate, a wiring layer provided on an upper surface of the insulating substrate, and a heat radiation fin joined to a lower surface of the heat radiation substrate. A component attachment plate thicker than the heat radiation substrate and including a through hole for accommodating the insulating substrate is joined to the upper surface of the heat radiation substrate such that the insulating substrate is located within the through hole. This power module base can maintain the upper surface of the component attachment plate flat, and various components required for a power module, such as a casing, can be attached onto the component attachment plate.
