Abstract: Systems and methods can include a provider institution accounts database structured to retrievably store data corresponding to a plurality of entities including a primary entity related to a plurality of secondary entities. The data for each of the plurality of entities may include values for a plurality of fields associated with the respective entity. A data management circuit may be configured to detect that one or more fields corresponding to at least one of the secondary entities has a value which is to be updated. The data management circuit may generate a first user interface that causes the user to confirm authorization to provide the value for the one or more fields, and a second user interface including a field for receiving the value. The data management circuit may receive the value, and update the data corresponding to the at least one secondary entity in the provider institution accounts database.

Abstract: A system for electrical stimulation of the salivary glands for the treatment of dry mouth is disclosed. In one embodiment, the system includes a headset with an electronic control module, placed on the back head, and a stimulating module, placed on the area to be stimulated.

Abstract: A droplet delivery device includes a housing with a mouthpiece port or outlet from a nasal device for releasing fluid droplets, a fluid reservoir, and an ejector bracket having a membrane positioned between a mesh with a plurality of openings and a vibrating member that is coupled to an electronic transducer, such as an ultrasonic transducer. The transducer vibrates the vibrating member which causes the membrane to push fluid supplied by the reservoir through the mesh to generate droplets in an ejected stream released through the outlet.

Abstract: A droplet delivery device includes an ejector mechanism with an ejector mesh or similar substrate with apertures that is treated by one or more of coatings, roughening, metal layer deposition and laser ablation to provide desirable production and size of droplets, such as in an inhaled aerosol from the device.

Abstract: A balanced armature receiver includes a gas permeable barrier located on a portion of the receiver defining a back volume to provide barometric relief. The barrier can be located in a wall portion or diaphragm of the receiver to vent the back volume to an exterior of the receiver directly, via a front volume, or via a nozzle. The gas permeable barrier is impermeable to liquid infiltration and can be configured to influence the low frequency response of the receiver.

Abstract: A method for operating a wellbore system for producing hydrocarbons from a wellbore in an underground formation in which a working fluid is circulated through the wellbore during operation. The method includes detecting a loss of the working fluid, allocating the loss to one or more layers of the underground formation, determining a ballooning potential of the wellbore based on the allocated loss and a lithology of the one or more layers of the underground formation, detecting an increase in a return flow of the working fluid from the wellbore, and comparing the increase in the return flow to the ballooning potential of the wellbore to determine whether the increase in the return flow is due to an influx of formation fluid into the wellbore. Remedial action may be taken in response to a determination that the increase in the return flow is due to an influx of formation fluid.
