Abstract: A dialysis system includes a fluidics system configured to perform a dialysis treatment session for a patient by having sensor(s) that measure corresponding parameter(s) and having dialysis actuator(s) that configures fluid flow through the fluidics system. The dialysis system includes a communication subsystem configured to communicatively connect to user device(s). A controller of the dialysis system is communicatively coupled to the fluidics system and the communication subsystem. The controller operates the fluidics system to perform the dialysis treatment session. The controller maintains data associated with the fluidics system. The data includes data types of patient health information, de-identified health information; and non-health information. The controller identifies access rights associated with first credential used by a first user device to the data types and communicates the data types to the first user device according to the access rights.

Abstract: The present approach relates to systems and methods for facilitating a client-agent conversation using dynamic, contextual information related to a client portal. The contextual information for the conversation may be determined using a server side script and/or a client side script that provides relevant portal usage data. The contextual information may be used to determine a conversation topic, which may be used to facilitate routing a request to chat to the appropriate agent for the topic.

Abstract: Exemplary embodiments relate to techniques for improving the speed and rendering quality of an image (e.g., a JPEG), and are especially useful in an end-to-end encrypted environment. The image may be analyzed on the sending-client side and the image data is broken into multiple categories. In one embodiment, the image data is broken into four chunks, where each chunk could be rendered (in conjunction with previous chunks) to provide increasingly high levels of quality (e.g., a thumbnail chunk, a mid-quality chunk, a high-quality chunk, and a full-quality chunk). The image is uploaded to a blob store, and a message is sent to the receiving client with image information. At the recipient side, the JPEG image data is retrieved from the blob store and each chunk is rendered at progressively increasing levels of quality. Consequently, images are rendered faster, and the quality increases over time.

Abstract: Exemplary embodiments relate to techniques for improving the speed and rendering quality of an image (e.g., a JPEG), particularly in an end-to-end encrypted environment. The image may be analyzed on the sending-client side and the image data may be broken into a thumbnail and a full-quality image, where the full-quality image data relies on the thumbnail data to render a high-quality image. The image is uploaded to a blob store, and a message is sent to the receiving client with image information. At the recipient side, the JPEG image data is retrieved from the blob store and the thumbnail is first rendered. Subsequently, as the remainder of the image data is received at the receiving client, the image is updated. Consequently, images are rendered faster, and the thumbnail can be automatically downloaded so that a user can determine if they wish to download the full image.
