  • Patent number: 11857720
    Abstract: Systems and methods are described for monitoring usage of a medicament dispenser—particularly an inhaled medicament dispenser. The usage monitoring device is configured to emit a detection signal responsive to receiving a request to locate the medicament dispenser. The detection signal alerts presence of the medicament dispenser to the user of the medicament dispenser. The usage monitoring device can be embodied as an attachment configured to be selectively coupled to one of a variety of different inhalers including, for example, a Diskus-type inhaler and a Respimat-type inhaler.

  • Patent number: 10688261
    Abstract: Systems and methods are described for monitoring usage of a medicament dispenser—particularly an inhaled medicament dispenser. While operating in a low-power mode, a first sensor is monitored for a signal indicative of handling of the medicament dispenser by a user. In response to detecting such handling, the device exits the low-power mode and begins to monitor a second sensor for a signal indicative of dispensing of the medicament. The usage monitoring device can be embodied as an attachment configured to be selectively coupled to one of a variety of different inhalers including, for example, a Diskus-type inhaler and a Respimat-type inhaler.

  • Patent number: 10450779
    Abstract: A lock is provided, the lock having: a lock mechanism having a first member and a second member, the first member and the second member each being slidably mounted to a housing of the combination lock, wherein the first member is capable of movement between a first position and a second position and the second member is capable of movement between a first position and a second position and wherein movement of the first member from the first position to the second position causes the second member to move from the first position to the second position; a bolt configured for movement between a locking position and an unlocking position, the bolt preventing the second member from moving from the second position to the first position when the bolt is in the locking position.

  • Publication number: 20190088370
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are unique systems and methods for remotely located physician specialists to diagnose and treat patients in a non-acute care facility having symptoms typically indicating a need for transfer to an acute care facility. The disclosed principles minimize the transfer of patients from a non-acute care facility to an acute care facility when not needed. The disclosed principles provide for the use of telemedicine units by geographically remote physician specialists to diagnose and treat patients in a non-acute care facility. If the physician specialist determines via the telemedicine unit that transfer of the patient to higher level of facility is needed, then the patient is transferred. If the physician specialist determines that the patient's new, elevated condition may be treated in the current, lower level facility, the physician specialist can prescribe a treatment for the current facility's staff to implement, even under the supervision of the physician specialist if it is needed.
