Abstract: A digital micromirror device comprises an array of micromirror pixels, the array comprising a first micromirror pixel and a second micromirror pixel. The first micromirror pixel comprises a hinge, where the hinge is configured to tilt toward a first raised address electrode and toward a second raised address electrode. The first micromirror pixel also comprises a first micromirror coupled to the hinge, where the first micromirror has a sculpted edge. The second micromirror pixel comprises a second micromirror, where a first gap between a first point on the sculpted edge and a nearest point to the first point on the second micromirror is larger than a second gap between a second point on the sculpted edge and a nearest point to the second point on the second micromirror.

Abstract: The invention disclosed is a rotor ventilator which includes a base to which a shaft is connected to extend upwardly therefrom and a rotor. The rotor is rotatable about the shaft and includes a plate and a plurality of vanes extending downwardly therefrom. Also included is a bearing means for supporting the rotor on the shaft. The bearing means is located at the plate, above the centre of gravity of the rotor.

Abstract: Software and a system created by the software with its application are applied in the healthcare setting for various patients corresponding to the CMS or JCAHO core measures. The software and its system captures necessary patient data related to future P4P initiatives designed by federal authorities, private payors or other organizations plus report safety events. The software allows real-time data entry at the bedside, during patient care processes, from admission to discharge. The system provides real-time feedback to practitioners on their performance as well as hospital benchmarking. The software can be used on a variety of hardware devices, and may gather data from various hospital information systems.

Abstract: A rotor ventilator which includes a base to which a shaft is connected to extend upwardly therefrom and a rotor. The rotor is rotatable about the shaft and includes a plate and a plurality of vanes (19) extending therefrom. Also included is a bearing means (30) for supporting the rotor on the shaft. The bearing means can be a double race assembly and is located at the plate, above the centre of gravity of the rotor. A deflector (58) can be located between the base and the plate to deflect gas away from the bearing means.
