Abstract: Certain examples provide a personal health management system including a data store, a processor, and a user interface. The data store is to store data related to patient health, the data store to store at least personal health record data for a patient. The processor is to gather and process data from the data store to determine a personalized plan of care for the patient using patient health data from the personal health record for the patient, patient preference information, and patient insurance information. The user interface is to display information related to the personalized plan of care for the patient and to facilitate user review and interaction with the displayed plan of care and the underlying patient health data.

Abstract: Navigation systems and methods for users having different physical classifications are described. An example method of navigating a user to a destination based on a selected physical classification includes identifying, based on user selection, the physical classification associated with the user and the destination and determining a route to the destination to accommodate the selected physical classification. Additionally, the example method includes conveying the route to the user and alerting the user of one or more items of interest associated with the selected physical classification and the determined route.

Abstract: The invention comprises a trash compactor cabinet formed from two panels of sheet metal. The panels are the same shape and are attached with one being inverted compared to the other along a V-shaped channel at one end of the panel. The panels have a V-shaped channel in the back side of the panel to form a passageway between shelves in the cabinet and the rear wall of the cabinet. A front portion of the panel is formed by a channel for attaching doors or door frames to the front of the cabinet. The cabinet can be formed by quickly and easily bending sheet metal into the panels and welding the panels together.

Abstract: A refuse compactor especially designed for use in fast-food restaurant environments includes a hydraulic pump driven by an electric motor for actuating a hydraulic ram to compress restaurant waste materials. The compactor includes a unique outer support structure that derives strength from the outer housing skins to support a compaction plate assembly. The compaction plate assembly maintains the platen inclined at a predetermined angle to the vertical when the platen is elevated and which forces the platen to a horizontal disposition during a downward compaction stroke. A motor operated closure member selectively blocks and unblocks a refuse-receiving opening formed in a front door of the compactor unit and with a motion detector controlling the opening and closing of the refuse entry door panel.

Abstract: Olefinic interpolymer compositions comprising the olefinic interpolymer, residuals from a transition metal catalyst and boron containing activator package, and a charge dissipation modifier and methods for making them. The compositions have dissipation factors that are at least 50% less than the corresponding olefinic interpolymer compositions which have not been treated with charge dissipation modifiers. The compositions are useful in wire and cable applications.

Abstract: A trash compactor is provided with a channel in the cavity of the trash compactor for allowing string to pass behind and below the compacted trash in the cavity of the trash compactor making it easy to secure the compacted trash in bales before removing the bale from the cavity of the trash compactor. The channels are inside of the bottom and back walls of the cavity and allow a strap therein to draw a string from the top back wall of the cavity to the front of the bottom wall of the cavity. The string can then be extended to circumnavigate the bale and be tied off before removing the bale from the cavity. The straps can be reinserted in the channels ready to pull string around the back and underneath the next bale.

Abstract: Disclosed is a business rules workflow system that provides a single communication interface for communications between end user applications, such as an agent user interface, and back office applications. The business rules workflow system also provides a single interface to apply business rules to the end user application to back office application communications. The communications and business rules interfaces reduce the need for multiple user interfaces using multiple technology, thus reducing the complexity, maintenance, and upgrade costs for a typical business environment. The business rules workflow system sends and receives data form pre-existing data systems, converts the pre-existing data system data into a common format, and sends the data to the data consumer. Any business rules based on the pre-existing system data will be applied by the business rules workflow system.

Abstract: An electron emitter, such as for a display, has a substrate and regions of n-type material and p-type material on the substrate arranged such that there is an interface junction between the regions exposed directly to vacuum for the liberation of electrons. The p-type region may be a thin layer on top of the n-type region or the two regions may be layers on adjacent parts of the substrate with adjacent edges forming the interface junction. Alternatively, there many be multiple interface junctions formed by p-type particles or by both p-type and n-type particles. The particles may be deposited on the substrate by an ink-jet printing technique. The p-type material is preferably diamond, which may be activated to exhibit negative electron affinity.

Abstract: Parallel cathode electrodes extend across the base plate of a display. Each electrode has teeth projecting from both sides, the teeth of adjacent electrodes being closely spaced from one another by a gap that is bridged by a dot of an electron emitter material. A glass screen spaced by a vacuum gap above the base plate carries transparent anode stripes extending transversely of the cathode electrodes and a fluorescent layer of colored phosphors on the anode stripes. A voltage applied between adjacent cathode electrodes and gates conduction via each electron emitter dot. A voltage applied to an anode stripe causes a part of the current from the emitter directly below the stripe to be directed towards the anode, thereby illuminating the phosphor pixel above the emitter.

Abstract: An electric hand truck having positive and negative lift capability. The hand truck can lower objects from stairs, loading docks, or trucks. The hand truck can also lift objects from the floor upward and climb stairs. It has a platform with caster wheels for easy of mobility in tight places. It has brakes and an adjustable tilt with a dolly such that the cargo hauled can be wheeled on the hand trucks main wheels and on the dolly wheels which support the object at an angle. The objects are raised or lowered by an electric motor run on a battery. The switch for the motor is a strip switch running the length of the rail extrusions for ease of access. The hand truck is lightweight and maneuverable. The dolly tilts the rail extrusions are easily adjustable angles to suit the load. Handles attached to the rail extrusions make the hand truck easy to maneuver.

Abstract: A method for the measurement of cardiac output in a patient in which the arterial blood pressure waveform of a patient from a blood pressure monitoring device over a period of time is subjected to various transformations and corrections, including a Fourier analysis in order to obtain the modulus of the first harmonic. The nominal stroke volume is then determined from the first harmonic and data relating to the arterial blood pressure and heart rate. The nominal cardiac output is then obtained from the nominal stroke volume.
