  • Publication number: 20240115299
    Abstract: A targeting system is disclosed. In use, the targeting system is configured to target (e.g., aim, locate, etc.) a fastener opening in a bone plate, more particularly, a variable angled fastener opening formed in a periphery of a periprosthetic bone plate. In one embodiment, the targeting system includes an alignment guide including a plurality of combo-slots for targeting a plurality of openings formed in the periprosthetic bone plate. In addition, the targeting system includes a plug configured to be positioned within the combo-slots formed in the alignment guide. In use, positioning the plug into the combo-slot formed in the alignment guide transforms the combo-slot into a substantially circular hole or opening with a predefined trajectory aligned with one of the variable angled openings formed in the periphery of the periprosthetic bone plate thereby defining a trajectory from the alignment guide to the variable angled opening.

  • Publication number: 20240098513
    Abstract: Systems and methods to identify a growth classification/categorization for a geographic area that helps a network provider to solve for what types of planning opportunities are available at various area granularities is disclosed. The system computes values for a set of growth criteria for a geographic area. The growth criteria are related to planning, usability, customer experience, sales, population, and so on. Based on the growth-criteria values, the system identifies a classification/categorization for the area. For example, the system classifies an area as an invest area (e.g., requiring engineering action), a grow area (e.g., requiring sales action/being sales ready), a defend area (e.g., requiring engineering and sales actions to continue current trend), or a fix area (e.g., likely requiring both engineering and sales actions to improve current trend). Based on the area classification, the system can then provide actionable insights to drive improvement in network coverage and customer experience.

  • Patent number: 11929164
    Abstract: Systems and methods for visually displaying instances of increased susceptibility for commission of medical errors are provided. Execution of programming instructions on a computer-readable medium causes a processor to retrieve historical workload data corresponding to environmental conditions experienced by and near misses associated with an individual or team of individuals during a first period of time from one or more data repositories. Retrieved workload data is processed to establish threshold limits for distinct working conditions represented within the workload data for the individual or team of individuals. Workload data corresponding to a second period of time is retrieved for the individual or team of individuals and compared to established threshold limits by the processor. Based on the comparison, the processor generates one or more displayable indicia indicative of the individual's or team of individuals' risk of committing a medical error due to an experienced workload.

  • Publication number: 20240074067
    Abstract: A printed circuit board having an electrically insulative layer and a conductive solder pad. The conductive solder pad is disposed at least partially over the electrically insulative layer, and defines a solder contact area. The solder contact area is configured for making an electrical connection to an electrical component via laser soldering. The printed circuit board further includes a solder mask coating the conductive solder pad and defining an exposed area of the conductive solder pad. The conductive solder pad protects the electrically insulative layer from incident heat during the laser soldering by extending a length underneath the solder mask along a periphery of the exposed area.

  • Publication number: 20230199514
    Abstract: Systems and methods for telecommunications network coverage optimization are disclosed. The network coverage optimization system computes a usability index value for a geographic area using measured values of telecommunications network usability indicators. The telecommunications network usability indicators are related to network coverage (e.g., whether the user has enough bars and can make a call), quality of service (e.g., whether the speech and data quality are good), and data speed (e.g., the amount of buffering the user is experiencing). The telecommunications network usability indicators can be selected based on an importance rating associated with them. Then, for each geographic area, the network coverage optimization system computes a score value and a weight value for each selected telecommunications network usability indicator. Using the computed score values and the computed weight values, the network coverage optimization system computes a usability index value for the geographic area.
