TRAY AND METHODS FOR MEDICAL PRODUCTS PACKAGING, STORAGE AND ACCESS
Trays and methods for medical products packaging, storage and access are described where a multi-level packaging assembly may comprise a top tray level, a lower tray level upon which the top tray level is removably positioned, one or more compartment barriers which define a first compartment within the lower tray level such that the first compartment is sized to accommodate a single syringe. The first compartment barriers may have a continuous ledge at a constant level with respect to a bottom of the lower tray level, and a base which is uninclined relative to the bottom of the lower tray level, and at least one layer of wrap sized so as to fold over and enclose both the lower tray level and the top tray level such that unfolding of the at least one layer of wrap reveals the top tray level.

MODULAR AUTOMATED PHYSICAL HEALTH TESTING SYSTEMS AND ASSOCIATED DEVICES AND METHODS
Automated modular physical health testing systems and associated devices and methods are disclosed herein. A modular system configured in accordance with embodiments of the present technology can include, for example, a housing, a communications hub, and a plurality of physical health testing devices. The housing integrates the communications hub and stores the plurality of physical health testing devices. The physical health testing devices are in wired and/or wireless communication with the communications hub. Each physical health testing device is configured to generate physical health data of a user and to transmit generated physical health data to the communication hub and/or a user's mobile device. The modular physical health testing system provides an automated physical exam that can be performed at user's homes or other convenient locations.

HOUSING FOR STORING SUTURES THEREIN, AND METHODS OF USE THEREFOR
Various embodiments for a surgical element carrier are described. The surgical element carrier includes a housing dimensioned for insertion through a surgical port during a surgery, where the housing has a first housing portion and a second housing portion movable relative to the first housing portion between a closed position and an open position. The surgical element carrier is configured to retain surgical elements, such as sutures, in a stacked arrangement within the housing that are accessible when the surgical element carrier is in the open position. Further, the surgical element carrier further includes a spacer having a spacer body. The spacer may be positioned between at least two of the surgical elements. The spacer includes a projecting portion extending from a side of the spacer, where the projecting portion may fold over the spacer body to at least partially overlap one of the surgical elements positioned thereon.

Loading unit coupleable to a surgical stapling system
A loading unit coupleable to a surgical stapling system is disclosed. The loading unit comprises an end effector, a firing system, and a shaft assembly extending proximally from the end effector. The end effector comprises a first jaw and a second jaw movable relative to the first jaw between an open position and a clamped position. The firing system comprises a firing assembly and an indicator. The firing assembly is movable toward a distal position through the end effector in response to a firing motion from the surgical stapling system. The indicator is configured to visually communicate a position of the firing assembly to a user of the surgical stapling system. The shaft assembly is removably couplable with the surgical stapling system and comprises an open slot region aligned with the firing assembly. The open slot region extends proximally with respect to the second jaw.
