Abstract: Described herein is an integrated health management system, and method that includes a pre-packaged tablet delivery apparatus configured to deliver pre-packaged tablets to a user. The delivery apparatus comprising an alignment guide, a processor modulated differential drive used for the directional control of the pre-packaged tablets, a sensor for sensing a location and an orientation of the pre-packaged tablet, a cutter mechanism, and cutter mechanism control logic. The sensed location and orientation of the pre-packaged tablet is used to modulate the differential drive. The cutter mechanism control logic is configured to monitor the sensed pre-packaged tablet location and orientation, then initiate a cutting sequence responsive to at least one of the predetermined configuration within the processor and the dynamic configuration responsive to determining an optimal sensed location and orientation. The control logic generates and logs a message into the distributed database responsive to the cutting sequence.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a system for use in motorized vehicles to provide a vehicle back-up alarm system, intended for mounting on a vehicle, that also incorporates an apparatus for detecting and alarming low battery conditions. Preferably incorporated into a main housing are the electronic components that perform power regulation, system control, voltage sensing, timing, alarm tone generation, sound emitting and, optionally, light emitting. The housing serves to securely fix and retain these components and to protect them from moisture and dirt. The circuitry is connected to the vehicle upon which it is installed by preferably three connection terminals situated on the housing. Distinctive tones and/or lamp sequences alert the operator and those by-standers within proximity to the vehicle to different alarm conditions.

Abstract: A system and method for providing medical treatment, such as medication, to a patient. The administration of the medication may include the use of an infusion pump. The system may be implemented in a variety of ways including as a computer program. The computer program accessing information related to the identity of a clinician, the identity of a patient, the identity of a medical treatment, and the identity of a medical device. The computer program determines whether the medical treatment has been previously associated with the patient and whether a plurality of operating parameters for the medical device are consistent with the medical treatment. The computer program also includes logic for providing a first error signal if the medical treatment has not been previously identified with the patient; and a second error signal if the operating parameters for the medical device are not consistent with the medical treatment.

Abstract: Provided is a process for producing a durable low hydrogen over-voltage cathode. An interim coating is applied to a metallic substrate by plasma spraying an intermetallic compound comprising at least 10% cerium oxide by x-ray diffraction analysis and at least one non-noble Group 8 metal. The metallic substrate bearing the interim coating is then heated in a non-oxidizing atmosphere including an inert gas to produce the electrode.

Abstract: Durable low hydrogen over-voltage cathodes bearing a coating which has an outer layer which comprises at least 10% cerium oxide by XRD and at least one non-noble Group 8 metal. Such cathodes may be prepared by a process involving at least the steps of coating a metallic substrate with an interim coating comprising cerium oxide and at least one non-noble Group 8 metal by plasma spraying an intermetallic compound of cerium and nickel and heating the interim coating in a non-oxidizing atmosphere.
