Abstract: A crosslinker composition is prepared from a reaction mixture including: (a) a prepolymer including a reaction product of a prepolymer mixture including: (i) a polyfunctional isocyanate; and (ii) a first compound comprising two or more active hydrogen groups, where the polyfunctional isocyanate and/or the first compound comprising two or more active hydrogen groups includes a greater than two functional isocyanate and/or active hydrogen groups, respectively; and (b) a polyfunctional hydrazide. The crosslinker composition is not self-crosslinkable. The crosslinker composition has an acid value of at least 15 based on total resin solids of the crosslinker composition.

Abstract: Embodiments are directed to managing the provisioning of healthcare services. A visit profile that includes a reason for the visit and patient demographic information may be provided by a patient requesting a visit to obtain healthcare services. Match scores for providers may be generated based on matching models and the visit profile. A provider may be assigned to the visit based on the match scores. A virtual waiting room may be provided for the patient based on the visit profile. The visit profile may be updated with supplemental information based on the interactions between the patient and the virtual waiting room, patient information, or visit information. Updated match scores may be provided for the providers based on the updated visit profile. If an updated match score exceeds a previously determined higher match score, another provider associated with a higher match score may be assigned to the visit.

Abstract: A device and method yielding a blood analysis employable in combination with an introducer for a catheter for a concurrent testing of blood from the introducer flash chamber during placement of a venous catheter. The device employs a colorimetric blood analysis to provide the user a visually discernable alert to the results of tested blood concurrent with the placement of the catheter with the introducer.

Abstract: Blood sample optimization systems and methods are described that reduce or eliminate contaminates in collected blood samples, which in turn reduces or eliminates false positive readings in blood cultures or other testing of collected blood samples. A blood sample optimization system can include a blood sequestration device located between a patient needle and a sample needle. The blood sequestration device can include a sequestration chamber for sequestering an initial, potentially contaminated aliquot of blood, and may further include a sampling channel that bypasses the sequestration chamber to convey likely uncontaminated blood between the patient needle and the sample needle after the initial aliquot of blood is sequestered in the sequestration chamber.

Abstract: A user interface (UI) property mapping system allows for efficient collaboration between a user experience (UX) team and a technical development team developing the UI. The UI mapping system assigns each component of the UI an identification key and exposes the identification key externally through an XML Schema, wherein such an XML Schema may be used by a UX team to generate an XML file specifying values of various properties of the UI. Subsequently, a UI object model reads the XML file to retrieve the values of various properties of the UI as specified by the UX team. The UI property mapping system may encode the XML file into a resource file that may be shipped with the final software using the UI. Alternatively, the XML file may be exposed for external modifications by end users to make changes to the UI as they desire.

Abstract: The claimed method and system provides programmers of client-server applications the ability to implement extensions to a standard style sheet language by using a preprocessor at a client to first parse, extract, and transform noncompliant, proprietary code. A new standards compliant style sheet may be created based on the transformed noncompliant code. This style sheet may then be executed on a client browser. The claimed system may be used to conform a client application schema with a client operating system schema.
