Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer program products for generating travel proposals that satisfy traveler defined stopover and segment time and activity constraints. A travel planning module receives data relating to a travel request from a traveler.  The travel request may include data defining an origin, a destination, and a trip constraint (54, 56) requiring a stopover. The travel planning module (52) determines a minimum number of segments required to satisfy the trip constraints, and generates a set of routes with each route comprising a number of links greater than or equal to the minimum number of required segments. The travel planning module may then populate each of the routes with scheduled segments to generate a plurality of candidate travel proposals (76) based on data received from a scheduling database. Candidate travel proposals that do not satisfy the trip constraints may be discarded, and the remaining candidate travel proposals displayed to the traveler.

Patent CA-2889848-A1 (CA)
Inventor: FALUS GEORGE D
IPC: A61K38/45
Filed: 2013-10-31
Abstract: ClotFoam is a sealant and hemostatic agent for use in cases of non-compressible hemorrhage for moderate to severe bleeding. It can be applied in the operating room through laparoscopic ports, or directly over lacerated tissue in laparotomy procedures or outside the operating room through a mixing needle and/or a spray injection method following intracavitary severe trauma or surgery. Its crosslinking technology generates an adhesive scaffold that carries a fibrin sealant required for hemostasis. Clotfoam produces a foam that spreads throughout a body cavity reaching the lacerated tissue to seal tissue and promote the coagulation cascade. The composition is biocompatible and non-inflammatory. The invention uses fibrin monomer polymerized by a change of pH as active sealing component. The viscoelastic properties of the foam as well as the rapid formation of a fibrin clot ensure that the sealant remains at the site of application without being washed away by blood.

Abstract: A hose coupler is described capable of quick connection and disconnection with only a small amount of rotation required to achieve a fluid-tight seal. A plurality of threaded segments are arranged about a central axis of the coupler into a segment set. Such segments comprise a flexible, elastic material that is capable bending towards or away from the central axis under an applied force but returns to their normal as-manufactured shape upon removal of the applied force. Ease of connection and disconnection without the requirement for substantial force to be applied is one of the salient advantages of the coupler described herein.
