  • Patent number: 12633397
    Abstract: Systems and methods for optimizing drug management are disclosed. A disclosed system implements a method that includes receiving, from a first client system, a new drug code and drug information associated with new drug code, determining, by the computing system based on the received drug information, a predetermined medication and a first local identifier used by the first client system to identify the predetermined medication, determining, based at least in part on identifying the first local identifier, one or more second local identifiers that identify the predetermined medication, identifying, based on the one or more second local identifiers, a plurality of second client systems that use the one or more second local identifiers, and automatically providing, an instruction to each of the plurality of second client systems to associate, at the second client system, one or more corresponding second local identifiers with the new drug code.

  • Patent number: 5722228
    Abstract: A hydraulic start system is provided having separate, sequentially started hydraulic motors for the controller PMG and for the gas turbine engine starter. Fluid pressure is provided by a hydraulic accumulator to both motors through separating valves. The PMG motor is supplied with fluid first and that drives the PMG to power up and initialize the controller before the starter motor is utilized. The engine itself is coupled to both the starter motor and the PMG through overrunning clutches such that starting the PMG does not start the engine. Once the controller is initialized, fluid is provided to the starter motor and the engine is accelerated through the light-off window and up to a self sustaining speed. As the engine accelerates, it couples with and drives the PMG, decoupling the PMG from its hydraulic motor and shutting off the fluid flow to that motor.
