Abstract: A computer-based system for providing coordinated health monitoring, emergency response, and medical record delivery. The system can include computing devices configured to process emergency-related indicators and data. The system can also include monitoring devices linked to the computing devices. The monitoring devices can monitor a particular area for the emergency-related indicators and data, where the monitoring devices detect among speech, sounds, images and other detectable emergency-related indicators. The monitoring devices can also transmit the emergency-related indicators and data to the computing devices. Furthermore, the system can include a module linked to the monitoring devices and configured to execute on the computing devices.

Abstract: A method of diagnosis. The method can include the steps of sampling the breathing of a patient and from the sampling, obtaining a waveform corresponding to a pattern of the breathing of the patient in which the waveform is a repetitive waveform that is indicative of a carbon dioxide concentration in air expired by the patient. The method can also include the steps of processing the waveform to obtain a set of data that reflects the carbon dioxide concentration in the expired air and based on the processing of the waveform, detecting a potential adverse respiratory event in the patient.

Abstract: A computer-based systems and methods for task processing in a computing device are provided. A method includes the step of entering a slice mode for at least one task, the entering comprising reserving one or more portions of a cache memory to yield a slice cache memory for the task. The method also includes the step of storing a slice in the slice cache memory, wherein the slice comprises at least one program residing in at least one memory space outside of the slice cache memory and associated with the at least one task. The method further includes the step of processing the at least one task utilizing the at least one program by accessing the at least one slice cache memory until the slice mode is terminated.

Abstract: A system for generating measurable indexes for providing a total wellness assessment of an individual is provided. The system can include a communications interface for accessing databases of population data derived from samplings of populations. The system further can include an integration and synthesis engine for generating weighting factors based upon a combination of the data, each weighting factor corresponding to a body region of the individual or to a health condition associated with the individual and based upon the population data. The system also can include a conditions capture engine for capturing individual-specific data corresponding to predetermined health conditions. The system can further include a modeling tool for combining the weighting factors with the individual-specific data.

Abstract: A computer-based system for monitoring product usage, value, and suitability for use or sale. The system can include one or more processors configured to process and manage data. Additionally, the system can also include product packaging comprising a machine-readable medium. Notably, the machine-readable medium can comprise product information among other types of information. The one or more processors can be configured for receiving the product information of the machine-readable medium. The machine-readable medium and corresponding medication information can be adjusted based automated signals or interactive signals, where the signals are generated based on current or historical data regarding the product or the packaging.

Abstract: A computer-based system for monitoring medication compliance. The system can include one or more processors configured to process and manage data. Additionally, the system can also include one or more medication packagings comprising a machine-readable medium. Notably, the machine-readable medium can comprise medication information among other types of information. The one or more processors can be configured to receive the medication information of the machine-readable medium. The machine-readable medium and corresponding medication information can be adjustable based on a dispensing of a medication from the one or more medication packagings.

Abstract: A computer system adapted to store a record of a patient's data received from at least one of doctor, patient, hospital, therapist, wherein the data is in at least one format selected from audio, visual, text, and wherein a patient can access the patient's own record and optionally add comments in one of said formats is disclosed. Also disclosed is a method of storing patient's data, comprising inputting data from at least one of doctor, hospital, or therapist in at least one format selected from audio, visual, text and authorizing the patient to access that patient's record so that patient can review the accuracy of the data and to input additional data or corrected data in one of said formats if the patient wishes to add comments to the record.

Abstract: A computer-based system for monitoring medication compliance. The system can include one or more processors configured to process and manage data. Additionally, the system can also include one or more one or more medication packagings comprising a machine-readable medium. Notably, the machine-readable medium can comprise medication information among other types of information. The one or more processors can be configured to receiving the medication information of the machine-readable medium. The machine-readable medium and corresponding medication information can be adjustable based on a dispensing of a medication from the one or more medication packagings.

Abstract: A computer-based system for regulating entry of data into a protected system. The system can include a first processor configured to process and manage data for the computer-based system. The system can also include one or more indelible memories communicatively linked with the first processor for the computer-based system. Additionally, the system can include a second processor configured to process and manage data for the protected system, wherein the second processor for the protected system is communicatively linked to the first processor for the computer-based system. The first processor for the computer-based system can be configured to receive one or more parameters from the second processor, wherein the one or more parameters defines which data from a data stream can pass to the protected system.
