Abstract: A home battery backup system may include a plurality of battery modules. Each battery module from the plurality may include one or more battery cells, a power output operably connected to the one or more battery cells, one or more module processors operably connected to the one or more battery cells or the power output, and an enclosure at least partially enclosing the one or more battery cells, the one or more module processors. The power outputs of each of the battery modules in the plurality may be connected to a common bus. A first battery module from the plurality may be settable to a first output power profile and a second battery module from the plurality may be simultaneously settable to a second output power profile different from the first output power profile.

Abstract: A battery module may include a rectangular tower comprised of four longitudinal faces, a top face, and a bottom face; one or more battery cells disposed inside the rectangular tower; chamfered edges disposed around a perimeter of the bottom face, the chamfered edges reducing a perimeter of the bottom face as the chamfered edges extend downwards towards at an extreme end of the bottom face; and a battery module connector disposed adjacent the extreme end of the bottom face recessed from the extreme end of the bottom face and at least partially shrouded by the chamfered edges, the battery module connector including or having formed thereon one or more alignment pins or one or more alignment pins receivers and one or more electrical contacts.

Abstract: Provided are a medical information importer and method for importing medical information into a network-accessible database. The medical information importer includes a housing includes with an external stand-alone form factor, the housing including an interface for receiving a portable computer-readable medium storing medical information. An information reading component is provided for reading the medical information from the portable computer-readable medium when operatively connected to the interface. A computer-readable memory in communication with the information reading component stores, at least temporarily, the medical information read by the reading component under the direction of a controller. And a network interface connects the medical information importer to a communication network without a local connection between the medical information importer and a computer terminal including a display device for viewing the medical information.

Abstract: Provided is a method of documenting a medical procedure including receiving medical data captured during the medical procedure to be documented. Information indicative of an identity of at least one of a patient that is a subject of the medical procedure and a physician involved with the medical procedure is received. The medical data is stored in a non-transitory computer readable medium associated with the at least one of the patient and the physician. Access to the medical data stored on the computer readable medium is restricted, allowing the physician involved with the medical procedure to subsequently retrieve the medical data stored in the computer readable medium and view the medical data retrieved. Restricting access to the recorded medical data prevents another physician, who may not have been involved in the medical procedure, from viewing the medical data without first entering information indicative of authorization to view the medical data.
