Publication number: 20240164703Abstract: Various methods and systems are provided for a sepsis alert engine for sepsis detection. In one example, a computing device comprising a display screen displays a menu listing one or more electronic medical records (EMRs) of one or more patients, and additionally is configured to display a sepsis alert graphical user interface (GUI) accessible from the menu while the one or more EMR systems are in an un-launched state. The sepsis alert GUI displays a sepsis level element identifying a sepsis level for each patient displayed as well as a limited list of criteria that triggered the identified sepsis level. The limited list of criteria is obtained from the one or more EMRs and each criterion in the limited list is selectable to launch a pop-up UI with additional information relating to the identified sepsis level.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 22, 2022Publication date: May 23, 2024Inventors: Jehoshua Joon Chang, Jeffrey R Terry, Kathleen Martin, Angelica Resendiz Mora, Rajitha Gurram, Anish Patel, Jennifer Naylor, Adam Schuller

Publication number: 20230070292Abstract: A rinse-off hair treatment product with a multi-chamber tube package that can contain a dual-phase rinse-off hair treatment composition that can provide a warming sensation and hair conditioning. The multi-chamber tube package can be a tube-in-tube package with an outer tube with an outer chamber that contains a conditioning composition and an inner tube with an inner chamber that contains a warming composition. The inner chamber is fluidly connected to one or more central orifices by an inner nozzle channel and the outer channel is fluidly connected to one or more outer orifices by an outer channel. The ratio of the area of the central orifice(s) to the outer orifice(s) can be greater than 1. The ratios can help the product dispense as a single stream with two visible phases, which has been found to prompt the consumer to intuitively mix the composition, thereby activating a warming sensation.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 23, 2022Publication date: March 9, 2023Inventors: Michele Tsu Fern Chua, Chern Ping Goh, Rong He, Qiao Li, Marcus Tay Jing Wen, Martin Chang Shou Lee, Jun Ji Zhang

Patent number: 7742411Abstract: A technique for managing traffic within a network processor integrated circuit (IC) involves establishing multiple queue groups, associating a different hardware counter with each queue group, and then using the hardware counters to support rate shaping and scheduling of all of the queues in the queue groups. For example, 512 queue groups of thirty-two queues each queue group are established for a total of 16,384 (16 k) different queues and a different hardware counter is associated with each queue group for a total of 512 hardware counters. The group-specific hardware counters are used to implement hardware-based rate shaping and scheduling of all 16 k queues in a resource efficient manner that supports high throughput, e.g., on the order of 40 Gbps.Type: GrantFiled: November 5, 2007Date of Patent: June 22, 2010Assignee: Bay Microsystems, Inc.Inventors: Man Trinh, Steve Chen, Martin Chang, Ray Chen

Patent number: 7190973Abstract: A method is disclosed for adapting base station equipment at a sectorized cell site to relieve high call blocking rates in a first heavily utilized sector. The method includes selecting a TCB cabinet corresponding to a second more sparsely utilized sector and placing first sector transceivers in a first set of designated slots of the TCB cabinet and second sector. A split receive (uplink) signal path within the second sector TCB cabinet is achieved by substituting a four input port combiner card for a conventional two input port combiner card. First and second sector receive signals are respectively directed to first and second input port pairs of the combiner card and are separately routed by the TCB cabinet backplane circuitry to the first and second sector transceivers. The foregoing method allows the cell site owner to add needed transceivers to the heavily-utilized sector without purchasing and installing a new base station.Type: GrantFiled: February 20, 2004Date of Patent: March 13, 2007Assignee: Cingular Wireless II, LLCInventors: Christopher Erwin, Martin Chang

Patent number: 7180641Abstract: A combination of an optical module and a transmitting and carrying structure includes an optical module, at least one carrying seat, and two rollers. The at least one carrying seat is combined with the optical module, for mounting the two rollers. The two rollers are located at the two opposite sides of the optical module. The two opposite sides of the optical module are perpendicular to the movement direction of the optical module. Thus, the at least one carrying seat and the two rollers are used to support and transmit the optical module, so that the optical module may be well balanced. In addition, the assembly height and the cost of fabrication are reduced.Type: GrantFiled: November 4, 2002Date of Patent: February 20, 2007Assignee: Avision Inc.Inventors: Martin Chang, Ching-Jung Tu, Li-Fen Heu
