    Abstract: A vaso-occlusive device comprises a wire having a primary configuration in a constrained condition. The wire forms a secondary configuration in a relaxed, unconstrained condition. The secondary configuration comprises a pyramidal portion comprising a plurality of distal coils. Each distal coil is wound from the wire such that the winding has a perimeter which tapers outwardly from an interior of the pyramidal portion, and a transition segment of the wire between each distal coil and connecting each distal coil. The plurality of distal coils is arranged in a pyramidal shape such that each coil lies in a different lateral face of the pyramidal shape. The vaso-occlusive device may also include a body portion proximal of the pyramidal portion formed from the wire and extending proximally from the pyramidal portion.

    Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to medical imaging, and more specifically to machine-learning techniques for clarifying and enhancing intraoperative images. The system can receive one or more intraoperative images depicting a biological tissue and smoke; input the one or more intraoperative images into a trained neural network to obtain a clarified image depicting the biological tissue that is less obscured by smoke than at least one of the received one or more intraoperative images; enhance, using an equalization algorithm, contrast in the clarified image to obtain an enhanced clarified intraoperative image; and display, on a display, the enhanced clarified intraoperative image, which can be used for decision making within or outside surgeries.

    Abstract: A patient support apparatus, such as a bed, cot, stretcher, etc., includes a scale system adapted to automatically monitor changes in a patient's weight over the course of a patient's stay within a healthcare facility. A controller onboard the patient support apparatus is configured to take an initial weight reading of the patient when he or she is first assigned to the patient support apparatus, and to thereafter repetitively compare the patient's current weight to that initial weight reading. If the difference exceeds a threshold, the controller issues a notification. The threshold may be user-customizable and/or it may be adaptive based on s statistical analysis of the patient's weight fluctuations. A control panel may be included to allow a caregiver to select between using a non-adaptive threshold or an adaptive threshold, and/or to select a value for the non-adaptive threshold. The notification may be transmitted to the caregiver's smart phone.

    Abstract: A patient support system for charging a battery of a patient transport apparatus via power selected from first and second source types. A charger with a guide coupled to a housing supporting first and second power connectors. A charge circuit charges the battery with power received from the first or from the second source types. A selector with a bastion prevent simultaneous electrical communication of the charge circuit with power from both the first and second source types. The selector is selectively movable between: a first selector position where the bastion blocks access to the second power connector and permits access to the first power connector to charge with power from the first source type, and a second selector position where the bastion blocks access to the first power connector and permits access to the second power connector to charge with power from the second source type.

    Abstract: A headwall unit is mounted a headwall of a hospital room and acts as a communication conduit between a bed (or other patient support apparatus) and a conventional communications outlet built into the headwall of the hospital room. The communications outlet is communicatively coupled to a standard nurse call system and an in-room television. The headwall unit is adapted to wirelessly forward audio signals from a remotely positioned nurse to the bed, and to receive wireless audio signals corresponding to a patient's voice from the bed and to forward the received audio signals to the communications outlet. The headwall unit is further adapted to detect infrared communications from both the bed and a television remote control. Communications from the television remote control are automatically analyzed by the headwall unit to determine the type of television in the room and the correct signals to use for controlling the television.

    Abstract: A patient transport apparatus for patients. The patient transport apparatus comprises a base having a base frame and an intermediate frame. The patient support further comprises a litter configured to be docked to and undocked from a trolley that is configured to slidably translate along the intermediate frame between a plurality of positions including a trolley forward position and a trolley docking position. The litter is configured to be supported by the base in a cantilevered position when the trolley is in the trolley docking position. The base includes a stabilizer that is configured for movement between a retracted configuration and a deployed configuration. In the deployed configuration the stabilizer engages a floor surface to brace the base at an additional point of contact with the floor surface to stabilize the base when the litter is in the cantilevered position.

    Abstract: Methods and systems for delivering a tubular implant to a target location in a body lumen, wherein the tubular implant has a delivery length when in a radially collapsed, delivery configuration, and a foreshortened length shorter than the delivery length when in a radially expanded, implanted configuration. Respective markers are provided on a delivery catheter and on the tubular implant which provide a visual indication of the landing location of a foreshortened length of a last proximal portion of the tubular implant prior to implanting the last proximal portion. This allows the clinician to determine if the landing location of the last proximal portion is clinically desirable prior to fully implanting the tubular implant.
