Patent number: 11980450Abstract: Systems and Methods are disclosed for detecting acute coronary syndrome (ACS) events, arrythmias, heart rate abnormalities, medication problems such as non-compliance or ineffective amount or type of medication, and demand/supply related cardiac ischemia. The system may have both implanted and external components that communicate with a Physicians's programmer, and smart-devices for monitoring and alerting to detected medically relevant events or states. At least one processor provides event detection using statistical threshold criteria calculated upon at least a portion of a patient's data/distributions and set for a patient or based upon what a doctor determines as abnormal for a patient. Cardiovascular condition is tracked using histogram, trend, and summary information related to heart rate and/or cardiac features such as S-T segment measures of heartbeats.Type: GrantFiled: August 15, 2022Date of Patent: May 14, 2024Assignee: Avertix Medical, Inc.Inventors: David R.

Patent number: 11808606Abstract: Methods and apparatus are provided for generating a runway landing alert for an aircraft. The method comprises establishing an altitude parameter and a safety envelope for a designated target runway of the aircraft. A track of the aircraft is monitored with reference to a centerline of the target runway. Any deviation by the aircraft from the centerline of the target runway is detected and determined if it is within a margin of error. If the deviation is within the margin of error, an altitude parameter is increased. If the aircraft is determined to still be maneuvering with respect to the centerline of the target runway, the altitude parameter is decreased. Otherwise, an alert is generated if the aircraft is outside of the safety envelope.Type: GrantFiled: December 13, 2022Date of Patent: November 7, 2023Assignee: HONEYWELL INTERNATIONAL INC.Inventors: Glen Burlingame, Yasuo Ishihara, Steve Johnson, James Ehlers, Esko Mannisto

Patent number: 11472570Abstract: A system and method of shifting a premature descent protection envelope for an aircraft has been developed. First, a premature descent protection envelope (PDP) is determined including a first boundary at a first distance from the runway. Next, a nominal approach path is determined for approaching the runway and an approach path angle. Also, a flight path angle of the aircraft is determined. The first boundary is shifted in an upward direction from the runway in response to the aircraft being below the nominal approach path, and the flight path angle being greater than the nominal approach path angle.Type: GrantFiled: January 6, 2020Date of Patent: October 18, 2022Assignee: HONEYWELL INTERNATIONAL INC.Inventors: Yasuo Ishihara, Steve Johnson, Kevin J Conner

Patent number: 11426089Abstract: A device for detecting acute coronary syndrome (ACS) events, arrythmias, heart rate abnormalities, medication problems such as non-compliance or ineffective amount or type of medication, and demand/supply related cardiac ischemia is disclosed. The device may have both implanted and external components and can communicate with other user devices such as smartphones and smartwatches for monitoring and alerting in response to detected medically relevant events or states of a patient. The processor is configured to provide event detection based upon various criteria including what is found to be statistically abnormal for a patient or what has been defined by a doctor to be abnormal. A patient's cardiovascular condition can be tracked over time using histogram, trend, and summary information related to heart rate and/or cardiac features such as those measured from the S-T segment of heartbeats.Type: GrantFiled: June 24, 2021Date of Patent: August 30, 2022Assignee: Angel Medical Systems Inc.Inventors: David R.
