Abstract: An otoscope includes an instrument head, a tip element and an optical system. The instrument head has a distal insertion portion for insertion into an ear of a human or veterinary subject. The distal insertion portion has a distal opening. The tip element is releasably attached to the distal insertion portion. The tip element has a distal opening. The optical system is contained within the instrument head. The optical system includes a plurality of optical components. The optical system further comprises a viewing component for viewing of an image of a target of interest aligned along an optical axis disposed within said distal opening. The optical system is configured to provide a field of having a diameter equaling at least 7 mm at a distance of at least 15 mm from a distal opening of said attached tip element. The optical system is further configured to simultaneously provide a distance range of optimal focus having a range of at least 8 mm. The distance range of optimal focus includes a location at a working distance equal to about 30 mm.

Abstract: A powered system includes a parent module including a first battery storing a charge and a child module including a second battery storing a charge and a controller. When the parent module and the child module are in electrical communication, the controller is configured to receive power from the parent module. When the charge in the parent module is depleted, the controller is configured to backfeed power from the child module to the parent module.

Abstract: A medical device for capturing one or more physiological variables of a patient is described. The medical device includes a housing, a display device mounted on the housing, and ports on the housing for connecting one or more peripheral sensors. The medical device receives data from the peripheral sensors, processes the data to calculate at least one physiological variable, and displays the at least one physiological variable on the display device. The medical device monitors an internal temperature inside the housing, determines whether the internal temperature exceeds a predefined threshold, and when the internal temperature exceeds the predefined threshold, perform one or more actions to lower the internal temperature.
