Abstract: The present invention relates to a system for remote patient monitoring. The system comprises at least one medical device, a patient remote device, a remote monitoring server device (RMS), and a health care professional (HCP) remote device. The at least one medical device is configured to automatically collect physiological data of a patient and transmit the collected physiological data of the patient to the RMS via the patient remote device. The RMS is configured to interface with the HCP remote device via a healthcare professional interface comprising a web-based portal and/or an app-based portal to allow a health care professional to access the collected physiological data of the patient on the RMS. In this way, it is possible to provide continuous remote monitoring of physiological data from a medical implant with no patient interaction required. The monitoring data is available to physicians via web-based and/or app-based user portal on-demand. The RMS may provide frequent (e.g.

Abstract: In the field of chain-link modules for voltage source converters, there is a need for an improved chain-link module. A chain-link module, for connection in series with other chain-link modules to form a chain-link converter selectively operable to provide a stepped variable voltage source within a voltage source converter, includes at least one pair of series-connected switching elements that are connected in parallel with a number of series-connected energy storage devices. Each energy storage device has an auxiliary power supply unit connected in parallel therewith to source energy therefrom for supply to an auxiliary chain-link module control circuit. The chain-link module also includes a modulation controller which is interconnected between each auxiliary power supply unit and the auxiliary chain-link module control circuit. The modulation controller is configured to modulate the proportion of energy supplied to the auxiliary chain-link module control circuit by each auxiliary power supply unit.

Abstract: A computer readable medium for controlling a computer is provided. The computer readable medium comprises a plurality of code segments for controlling a computer. A code segment receives a telephonic communication comprised of voice data and event data. A code segment receives computer application data comprising data associated with at least one computer application in use during the telephonic communication. A code segment analyzes the telephonic communication by translating the received voice data into a text format, the text format defining a plurality of components. At least one component of the text data and communication event data occurring during a time interval is classified into one of a plurality of object types, and the computer application data during the time interval is compared to the object type of the classified components.
