Abstract: Continuous temperature monitors can be used to collect frequent temperature data over large periods of time. A machine learning system trained with collected temperature data can be used to predict future temperature data for patients. Such predictions can be clinically beneficial for disease states in which fever can be fatal, particularly for those fevers having fast onset. For example, patients undergoing chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) therapy may suffer fevers caused by cytokine release syndrome (CRS). Accordingly, a continuous temperature monitor is used to collect temperature data from CAR-T patients with high risk of CRS (or like patients with high fever risk), and the collected temperature data processed by a machine learning system to predict the patient's future temperature profiles. Results of analysis of the predicted temperature profiles may then be provided to the patient and/or clinician.

Abstract: The invention is a battery with power output terminals on opposite ends of a battery and a power output terminal on the side wall of the battery that has the same polarity as one of the end power output terminals. The presence of the side terminal is indicative of a battery characteristic and allow a battery operated device requiring that characteristic to selectively use the battery when designed to use the side terminal and opposite polarity end terminal to provide energy to operate the device. Because the battery also has opposite polarity end terminals, the battery can be used in devices designed to use batteries of the same dimensions and having the same nominal voltage, whether or not they possess the characteristic associated with the presence the side terminal. The location of the side terminal can also be indicative of additional battery characteristics, allowing the selective use of batteries in devices based on various device requirements.

Abstract: A flat, flexible electrochemical cell is provided. The within invention describes various aspects of the flat, flexible electrochemical cell. A printed anode is provided that obviates the need for a discrete anode current collector, thereby reducing the size of the battery. An advantageous electrolyte is provided that enables the use of a metallic cathode current collector, thereby improving the performance of the battery. Printable gelled electrolytes and separators are provided, enabling the construction of both co-facial and co-planar batteries. Cell contacts are provided that reduce the potential for electrolyte creepage in the flat, flexible electrochemical cells of the within invention.

Abstract: A tabless battery housed in a sealed package is provided. The packaging material for the battery comprises a conductive material and a sealing material. At least a portion of the interior surface of the conductive material is exposed to form an internal contact between at least one electrode and the conductive material. At least a portion of the exterior surface of the conductive material is also exposed to form an external contact between the electrode and the device.
