  • Publication number: 20220374736
    Abstract: A system according to an embodiment optimizes communications with users using machine learning based models. The system receives user profile data for a set of users. For each user from the set of users, the system provides the user profile data as input to a machine learning based model and determines attributes describing the user, for example a measure of adherence rate for the user. The system ranks the set of users based on the predicted attributes. The system selects a subset of users from the set of users based on the ranking. For each selected user from the set of selected users, the system determines communication parameters for communicating with the selected user and sends a communication to the selected user based on the determined communication parameters.

  • Publication number: 20070099513
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to a plug-in device having a printed circuit board. A plurality of conductor pins arranged in a circular configuration are surface mounted or through-hole mounted to the circuit board and extend outwardly therefrom. A plastic base with a key shaft is secured to the circuit board over the conductor pins. The key shaft and the conductor pins are adapted for insertion into a socket. The circuit board may be insert-molded into the plastic base, or the plastic base may be pre-formed and secured to the circuit board by heat staking and/or adhesive.

  • Patent number: 7153273
    Abstract: A catheter assembly for sensing the temperature of an arterial wall or other body lumen includes a blood-flow-occluding feature to increase the accuracy of the temperature measurements. In addition to the flow-occluding feature, the catheter includes a distal end with a temperature sensing structure and a proximal end including a manually operated expansion control. The temperature sensing structure including one or more presentation elements in the form of a basket or braided structure having at least one temperature sensor supported thereon, each sensor being operative to generate an electrical signal indicative of temperature.

  • Patent number: 6450976
    Abstract: Apparatus for measuring length in a blood vessel includes an inner barrel slideably fitting within an outer barrel. The apparatus also preferably includes a zero ring for initializing a position of the inner barrel relative to the outer barrel, wherein the zero ring is rotatably positioned on the outer barrel. The apparatus further includes a small-diameter clamp extending outwardly from the inner barrel for holding a catherization mechanism for visualizing a blood vessel, wherein the catherization mechanism includes a marker and a scale is positioned on the inner barrel for indicating a displacement of the inner barrel relative to the outer barrel in response to the catherization mechanism marker.
