Abstract: A catheter insertion device is provided for inserting an over-the-needle catheter. The device includes an insertion needle that is retractable into the housing of the device after use to prevent exposure to the contaminated needle. The needle retainer releasably retains the needle in an extended position against the rearward bias of the biasing element. The needle retainer engages the hub of the catheter so that when the catheter is removed from the insertion device, the needle retainer automatically releases the needle. The biasing element then propels the needle rearwardly into the housing of the device. A method for inserting a catheter is also provided, in which the needle is hooded by the catheter during the insertion procedure.

Abstract: A retinal camera is used to examine an eye, the camera including a light source having first and second sources emitting first and second wavelength bands. The first and second light sources are arranged to alternately produce light onto the retina such that the absorptivity of light of the first wavelength band by oxygenated blood is greater than the absorptivity of light of the second wavelength band, and the absorptivity of light of the first wavelength band by the oxygenated blood is less than absorptivity of light of the second wavelength band. Light is selectively focused from the first and second sources by an optical arrangement and imaging devices produce respective images of a portion of the retina illuminated with the respective wavelength bands. The images obtained by the imaging device are processed by the imaging device and processor to determine a retinal metabolic image based on haemoglobin oxygenation. In an embodiment of the invention light is scanned across the retina.

Abstract: An internal combustion aircraft engine comprising a cylinder head having a cylindrical head bore formed therein, a piston, and spark plugs, the cylinder head bore and piston designed to reduce engine knock. The cylinder head is fixedly attached to a top end of a cylinder barrel formed with cylindrical walls, the cylinder head bore and the cylindrical walls defining a cylinder. The cylinder head bore has formed therein an outwardly protruding cavity with respect to the top end of the cylinder barrel. The piston has a piston crown, and the piston contained within the cylinder, the piston crown, the cylinder walls, and the cylinder head bore define a combustion chamber. The piston crown has a concavity formed therein, and the piston is constructed and arranged to reciprocate within the cylinder. The concavity of the piston crown and the cavity cooperate at a top dead center position of the piston to form a swirl chamber. The piston crown has formed along a peripheral edge thereof a squish area that corresponds to a second squish area formed in the cylinder head bore, so that when the piston approaches top dead center, the squish area and the second squish area cooperate to cause combustion gases to move radially inward of the combustion chamber and into the swirl chamber. Spark plugs extend through the cylinder head, the tips of which are disposed within the swirl chamber.
