Inventor: ANDREONI TODD RYAN
IPC: A61M5/42
Filed: 2011-07-22
Abstract: A skin engagement member is provided herein for use with a needle assembly or a medical injector to minimize irritation of a patient's skin surrounding an injection site during injection by a needle of the needle assembly or medical injector. The skin engagement member includes: a body; a surface defined on the body for engaging the patient's skin during injection by the needle; an aperture formed through the body configured to permit passage therethrough of the needle; and, rotatable mounting features for rotatably mounting the body to the needle assembly or medical injector such that the surface, while engaging the patient's skin, is rotatable about the aperture. Advantageously, with the subject invention, a skin engagement member may be located in engagement with a patient's skin which, due to pressure applied during injection, may be held in a generally fixed position against the skin with rotation of the injector about the skin engagement member being permitted. Accordingly, irritation of the patient's skin about the injection site may be minimized.

Abstract: The current invention involves a series of fully recombinant multimerized forms of immunoglobulin Fc which thereby present polyvalent immunoglobulin Fc to immune cell receptors. The fusion proteins exist as both homodimeric and highly ordered multimeric fractions, termed stradomers. In comparison to the homodimeric fraction, purified multimeric stradomers have higher affinity and avidity for Fc Rs with slower dissociation and are useful in the treatment and prevention of disease. The current invention demonstrates that directly linking IgG1 Fc regions to multimerization domains leads to enhanced multimerization and biological activity.

Abstract: A vehicle tire inflation system includes an air supply source in fluid communication with multiple tires of the vehicle. A pneumatic conduit extends between and is in fluid communication with the air supply source and the tires. Means are fluidly connected to the pneumatic conduit for enabling selective inflation and deflation of the tires. The means include a first pneumatic circuit for inflation of the tires, and a second pneumatic circuit for deflation of the tires. The second pneumatic circuit is discrete from the first pneumatic circuit and is common to more than one of the tires. The means provides controlled deflation of the tires in the second pneumatic circuit based upon a predetermined condition, preventing deflation of the tires until the vehicle is parked, or limiting the deflation of the tires, which in turn enables the tire inflation system to accommodate a desirable increased pressure in the tires.
