“We are pleased to have received clearance from the FDA for the world’s first system designed for robotic-assisted PCI procedures,” said David M. Handler, President and CEO of Corindus Vascular Robotics. “This is an important milestone for interventional cardiology as we take the next step in transforming the way these procedures are performed in the future. The CorPath System offers hospitals the opportunity to bring robotic-assisted technology benefits to their coronary patients and their physicians.”

In the wake of recent tragedy, the Newtown community came together to show the nation the true meaning of “Newtown strong.” It was inspiring to see such overwhelming support for a small, quiet town in the face of such extreme adversity.
The Strides for Sandy Hook 5k memorial run/walk was created as a way for local residents to continue the healing process. The 5k took place on Saturday, January 19, 2013. The unofficial community run honored the lives of victims lost in the December 14, 2012 tragedy. While there was a suggested donation of $25 for participants, any amount was accepted—no matter how big or small. Strides for Sandy Hook attracted nearly 200 walkers and runners and raised over $3,600 on January 19 alone. All donations and proceeds were given towards a memorial fund established by Newtown Parks and Recreation, the Newtown Park Gift Fund.

Fahrsicherheitstraining, aber kein gewöhnliches. Die Teilnehmer sind nach einem Arbeitsunfall mobilitätseingeschränkt. Dennoch müssen sie nicht auf ihr Auto verzichten. Nach einigen Anpassungen können sie normal am Straßenverkehr teilnehmen. Die BG ETEM ist die gesetzliche Unfallversicherung für rund 3,8 Millionen Beschäftigte in etwa 200.000 Mitgliedsbetrieben. Ihre Aufgaben sind Arbeitssicherheit und Gesundheitsschutz sowie Rehabilitation und Entschädigung von Verletzten und Erkrankten bei Arbeitsunfällen und Berufskrankheiten. Jan Brachwitz ist seit einem Arbeitsunfall vor elf Jahren querschnittsgelähmt. Auch er war froh, als er sein erstes umgebautes Fahrzeug bekam. Jan Brachwitz, Teilnehmer:
Im Rahmen einer internationalen Presseveranstaltung hat der Panamera S E-Hybrid im Mittel über 42 Testfahrten mit Journalisten über eine Gesamtdistanz von mehr als 1.200 Kilometern nur 4,4 Liter auf 100 Kilometer verbraucht. Der Bestwert des weltweit ersten Plug-in-Hybrid-Modells in der Luxusklasse lag auf einer Runde sogar bei lediglich 2,8 l/100 km. Das zeigt, dass sich im realen Alltagsbetrieb durchaus Verbrauchwerte in der Größenordnung des NEFZ-Verbauchs erzielen lassen, der 3,1 l/100 km beträgt. Und das, obwohl die insgesamt vier vollkommen serienmäßigen Panamera S E-Hybrid jeweils mit drei bis vier Personen besetzt waren, die Klimaanlagen eingeschaltet waren und auf der Autobahnetappe auf bis zu 230 km/h beschleunigt wurde. Die insgesamt 28,7 Kilometer lange Testrunde durch und um die Stadt Hockenheim herum setzte sich aus 6,5 Kilometer Stadtfahrt, 9,2 Kilometer Landstraßen und 13 Kilometer zum Teil unlimitierte Autobahn zusammen. Voraussetzung zum Erreichen solcher Werte ist, dass die Auflademöglichkeit der 9,4-kWh-Lithium-Ionen-Batterie am Stromnetz konsequent genutzt wird. Ebenfalls in der Praxis bestätigt wurde die rein elektrische Reichweite von 36 Kilometern mit einem Verbrauch von 0,0 l/100 km und ohne lokale Emissionen, die somit nicht nur im NEFZ auf dem Prüfstand, sondern auch auf der Straße erreichbar ist. Und das sogar mit einer Durchschnittsgeschwindigkeit von 54 km/h, während diese im NEFZ lediglich 33 km/h beträgt. Rein elektrisch angetrieben ist der Panamera mit dem neuen Hybridantrieb bis zu 135 km/h schnell.
Eight out of 10 people will be affected by back pain at some point during their lives, making it the No. 1 cause of disability worldwide and resulting in as much as $200 billion in lost wages and productivity. Many sufferers struggle for years to find relief, but treatment options often only provide short-term relief or, in the case of pain medication, carry serious side effects, including drowsiness, liver damage and potential for addiction. Now, thanks to Hocoma, a leader in the development of robotic and sensor-based medical devices for functional movement therapy, consumers have a new way to improve and sustain low back health in the comfort of their own home.
