Abstract: A needle tip spring protector for a needle (14) having a proximal end, a distal end (20), and a shaft (22) extending therebetween. The needle tip spring protector includes a spring (16) that circumferentially surrounds a portion of the needle shaft (22) and is restrained in a state wherein its inner diameter (30) is large enough to allow the shaft (22) to move freely within the spring (16). When the needle (14) is moved to a position in which its distal end (20) is at least partly within the spring (16), at least one of the ends of the spring (16) releases from restraint such that the spring (16) automatically returns to a state in which its inner diameter (30) is sized so as to grippingly engage the shaft (22) of the needle (14). Thus, after activation, the spring (16) securely surrounds the distal end (20) of the needle (14) to protect healthcare workers and others from accidental contact with the needle's distal end (20). When used in conjunction with a catheter assembly (100), the needle tip spring protector may passively release from the catheter hub (1 14) after the spring (16) is automatically activated.

Abstract: DNA containing somatic mutations is highly tumor specific and thus, in theory, can provide optimum markers. However, the number of circulating mutant gene fragments is small compared to the number of normal circulating DNA fragments, making it difficult to detect and quantify them with the sensitivity required for meaningful clinical use. We apply a highly sensitive approach to quantify circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) in body samples of patients. Measurements of ctDNA can be used to reliably monitor tumor dynamics in subjects with cancer, especially those who are undergoing surgery or chemotherapy. This personalized genetic approach can be generally applied.

Title: A system, method and apparatus for producing weatherstrip containing profiles of different shape and weatherstrips for use therewith
Inventor: DEMELLO ALAN J
IPC: E06B7/23
Filed: 2011-09-13
Granted: 2019-08-20
Abstract: A system to enable operators of extrusion facilities to eliminate the error of installing the incorrect weatherseal in an extrusion or profile. The operators extruding the profiles are provided a list by the fabricator of what weatherseal is to be inserted by placing indicia on the backing of the weatherseal, as by printing the die or profile number on the actual backing of the weatherseal, thereby providing improved weatherseals having unique indicia. The indicia designates the profile which will receive the die. The indicia correlates weatherseal with the profile/die number to confirm that the proper weatherseal is being used. There is no need to read or cross reference the weatherseal number from the reel label or box, which in some cases it is no longer readable or the box itself has been discarded. All the operator has to do is look at the back of the weatherseal to confirm the correct weatherseal is being used for the profile being produced. If the weatherseal is used in more than one profile, the indicia of all the profiles with which it is used may be printed on the backing of the weatherseal.
