COVERING ASSEMBLY WITH COAGULANT COMPARTMENT AND USES THEREOF IN A BLOOD MONITORING/MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
Disclosed is a covering/lid assembly having a separate first compartment, a second compartment, or both a first and a second compartment, and a button and/or dimple situated on the top side of each compartment. Each compartment will comprise a top side and a bottom side, the bottom side of at least one of the compartments comprising a frangible material. The first or second compartment may comprise a first or a second material. The first material may comprise a red blood cell or blood coagulant or a red blood cell flocculant. Where the first compartment comprises a red blood cell or blood coagulant material, the second compartment will comprise a red blood cell flocculant material. The material from each compartment may be selectively released upon compressing the dimple and/or button of the top side of the respective compartment. A collection and/or biological waste management and disposal system is presented, comprising a covering/lid assembly as described, and a collection container. The covering/lid may include a perimeter having a threaded and/or snap-on assembly suitable for securely attaching the covering/lid assembly to a collection canister. The collection and/or biological waste management and disposal system may include a container comprising a red blood cell flocculant and saline solution. This container may be detachably secured to the canister or provided as a separate accessory to the system.
Baby Bottle Cover
A baby bottle including an accordion cover is disclosed herein. The bottle has a nipple connected at an open end, with a collar removably connected at a meeting point of the bottle and the nipple. The accordion cover is connected to the collar, and may be movable, while remaining fixedly connected to the collar, between an upward configuration, a downward configuration, and a compressed configuration. The nipple is covered and protected from contamination.

TEETHING DEVICE
Implementations of a teething device are provided. In some implementations, the teething device comprises a teething head and a telescoping arm.
In some implementations, a method of using the teething device comprises connecting or attaching the teething device to a bib or other suitable garment, putting the teething device in an expanded configuration for usage, and inserting the teething head of the teething device into the mouth of a teething baby wearing the bib or other garment.
DRUG-IMPREGNATED ENCASEMENT
A drug-impregnated sleeve for encasing a medical implant is provided. In one embodiment, the sleeve may include a body made of a biologically-compatible material that defines an internal cavity configured to receive the medical implant. In one embodiment, the biologically-compatible material is bioresorbable. The body may include a plurality of apertures, such as perforations or holes, extending from the cavity through the body. The sleeve may further include a first end, a second end, and a drug impregnated into the resorbable sheet. In one possible embodiment, the first end of the sleeve may be open for receiving the medical implant therethrough and the second end may be closed. The implant may be encased in the sleeve and implanted into a patient from which the drug is dispensed in vivo over time to tissue surrounding the implantation site. In one embodiment, the body is made from at least one sheet of a biologically-compatible material.
