Highlighted as one of New York Times Best Inventions. A surgical scalpel has a flat blade, which may have a cutting
or severing edge, and an elongated ergonomic handle having
distal and proximal ends and an imaginary central axis.
In one preferred embodiment, of a disposable (one use)
scalpel the blade is embedded in a molded plastic resin
handle. The handle has a generally triangle shape in cross-section
with the top face being slightly curved. The handle, near
its distal end, has an enlarged finger pressure section
having an indentation at its top face adapted for a finger
pad to apply pressure to the scalpel handle.

A gynecological instrument for collecting cell samples
from the endocervix and exocervix and exocervix, e.g.,
a Pap Smear brush, has a handle portion carrying a brush
base. The brush is connected to the brush base and comprises
a central portion of stiff bristles which are generally
perpendicular to the handle axis, and a line of softer
bristles generally aligned with that axis.

A cervical biopsy device utilizes a biopsy needle having
a magnifying lens mounted directly on a cutting sheath.
The magnifying lens also acts as a barrier to prevent excessive
penetration into the tissue. The components of the biopsy
needle, which include a stylet, the cutting sheath and
the magnifying lens, may be constructed as a single, disposable
unit to eliminate the possibility of blood and/or other
fluid contamination when using the biopsy device. In a
method of using the biopsy device of the invention, the
magnifying lens is used to observe the initial insertion
of the stylet and sheath into tissue as well as the cutting
and removal of the tissue. |

In another embodiment, without plates, the protrusions
on the web are disks and the areas between the disks are
covered by other disks.

A chest protector, in sports medicine, adapted for players
of the athletic games, is light in weight and reasonably
comfortable to wear. It will protect the heart and chest
cavity area of players in such games as lacrosse, field
hockey, and baseball. The chest protector includes a shirt,
preferably of two-way stretch fabric, having a large front
pocket across its chest area. A protector plate is positioned
within the pocket. The protector plate is an assembly of
molded layers, comprising inner-most and outer-most layers
of plastic, preferably polyethylene sheets; a central layer
of a high impact polymer pad, preferably a dry polyurethane
gel; and two layers of high impact resistant fabric of
high tensile strength fibers, preferably para-aramid fibers,
with the polymer pad being sandwiched between the two layers
of impact resistant fabric.

In
a surgical procedure absorbent pads, such as sterile
gauze lap pads and sponges are used to absorb blood
and other fluids. It is vital that none of the pads
be left in the patient after the operation. To account
for each pad and be certain none are left in the
patient, each pad is marked with unique human readable
alphanumeric character, for example each pad in
its face is printed with one number from the numbers
1,2,3 . . . 10 or more.

Several different football-related games and activities
are combined into a kit, resulting in a unique combination
for use while watching a football game on television such
as the Super Bowl. A sports activity kit comprises bingo-like
game; a statistics game; various interactive segments,
and a trivia segment. Upon completion of the elected segments,
all participants tally their accumulated points, and the
participant who accumulates the most points wins the game
overall. At least the winner of the game preferably receives
a trophy. In the preferred embodiment, adult and child
versions of the game are provided. The adult version includes
a bingo-like game, a statistics game and a trivia segment.
The child version includes two different interactive segments—a
ball throw and a ball-kick component—and a statistics game. |

A laparoscopic surgical instrument to perform tubular ligation
of the Fallopian tube includes a handle grip to be held
by the surgeon. A finger grip is used to slide a body member
on a rod fixed to the handle and to squeeze a staple onto
the Fallopian tube. A forceps, operated by a button on
the handle, pulls up the Fallopian tube and holds a segment
of the tube, as a biopsy sample, after it has been severed.
