Data from one patient enrolled in the early phase of the ongoing clinical trial evaluating an experimental device called the Cath-Assist are presented. The device is designed to facilitate female urethral catheterization by exposing the vulvar vestibule, isolating the urethral opening, and blocking the entrance to the vagina.

As regards the significant role of stethoscopes in the diagnosis of congenital and adventitious heart diseases and prevention of irreparable complications of these diseases, the quality of hearing sound of these stethoscopes by a physician has a significant impact on the disease diagnosis. This device plays an important role in the early diagnosis of congenital heart and respiratory diseases an...

An innovative Volumetric Current Meter (VCM) was designed in order to allow quick velocity measurements in open channels. At first, the coefficient of velocity (Cv) of the device was determined through calibration under different water velocities in the laboratory. The measurement performance was verified by measurements performed in similar flows in irrigation channels using an ordinary curren...

a gyroscope is a device for measuring or maintaining orientation , based on the principles of conservation of angular momentum . the device is a spinning wheel or disk whose axle is free to take any orientation. this orientation changes much less in response to a given external torque than it would without the large angular momentum associated with the gyroscope's high rate of spin. since exter...
