  • Publication number: 20230379681
    Abstract: A method includes receiving data identifying a responder in response to a call to an emergency operator, identifying one or more persons associated with the responder, determining communication addresses of communication devices associated with respective persons of the one or more persons, and sending a communication to each of the communication devices using the communication addresses to issue a pre-alert to the one or more persons that allows the one or more persons to prepare for a call to action. A system using natural language processing may be used to analyze a call in progress and aid in dispatching. The system may also identify the responder and assist in initiating the pre-alert prior to an alarm being sounded.

  • Publication number: 20130116733
    Abstract: A bone clamp and method of using the bone clamp are provided. The bone clamp includes a pair of squeeze handles. Movement of one of the handles forces a push rod in a uniaxial direction. The push rod has a moveable jaw secured to a distal end thereof. A stationary jaw is connected to the other handle member. A curved slot formed in the handle member receives the push rod and ensures a unidirectional or linearly directed force is applied to the push rod. This uniaxial force prevents shifting of the bone plate when the clamp makes contact with a bone and a bone plate. The orientation of the clamping surfaces of the jaws provide an optimal orientation to attach the bone plate to the anterior surface of a bone allowing an unimpeded view of the fracture around the superior and inferior surfaces of the bone.

  • Publication number: 20070254271
    Abstract: An apparatus, method, and software product are used to sense a repetitive motion, such as walking, running, or tapping. Thus, a rate of the repetitive motion is determined. A piece of music is then selected in response to the determined rate, and the piece of music is played. This piece of music has a tempo selected to match or approximate the rate of the repetitive motion, so that the repetitive motion and the music are substantially in harmony.
