  • 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.

  • Patent number: 11823103
    Abstract: Systems and methods presented herein provide a server that receives a service request from a user device. The server matches the service request against one or more technician profiles. Then the server sends a message to a corresponding technician device to accept the service request and starts an acceptance timer. If the technician accepts, the server sends a control application to the user device for installation. The user can enter a PIN received from the server into the control application, which then shares control of the user device with the technician device. The technician device can cancel the service request during a grace period. Otherwise, the technician must complete the service request. The control application can notify the server whether the service request was completed, and the server can update a score in the technician profile accordingly.

  • Patent number: 11677736
    Abstract: In an approach to transient identification generation, one or more computer processors receive a request for one or more identification artifacts associated with a user from a requesting entity. One or more computer processors determine a first set of identification artifacts. One or more computer processors transmit the first set of identification artifacts to the requesting entity. One or more computer processors determine whether the first set of identification artifacts is an approved response to the request for the one or more identification artifacts. In response to determining the first set of identification artifacts is the approved response to the request for the one or more identification artifacts, one or more computer processors generate a transient identification that includes the first set of identification artifacts. One or more computer processors transmit the transient identification to the requesting entity.

    Abstract: A system can receive a request for a transport service from a first device. The request can include a user identifier associated with a first user of the first device, contact information associated with a second user, and a pickup location information. The system can make a determination whether a user account associated with the second user is stored in a user database using the contact information in the request. Based on the determination, the system can select a messaging protocol to transmit data to a second device associated with the contact information. The system can transmit a message corresponding to the transport service to the second device using the selected messaging protocol.
