  • Publication number: 20080183496
    Abstract: A system for developing a patient care plan and executing the patient care plan and assessing the success of the planning and execution of the patient care plan. A coordinated, collaborative approach to the development of a patient care plan at the admission of a patient to a health care facility and may include a plurality of healthcare professionals in the development of the plan. The plan may include a plurality of phases spanning from admission through treatment and discharge of the patient from the health care facility. A system of executing the patient care plan with specific milestones established before transitioning the treatment from one stage of the care plan to the next stage of the care plan. A method of developing, executing and assessing the execution of a patient care plan including a plurality of phases of patient care and milestones to be met before transitioning to the next phase of care.

  • Publication number: 20050230978
    Abstract: A wind actuated turbine which causes a permanent maqnet-brush spinner and a copper foil covered disk spinner to counter rotate and generate electricity by the Faraday Principle is improved by fastening a solar recharged battery driven electromagnet to the spinner to work in combination with the generators permanent magnet brush, and by changing the disk from its solid form to one that has multiple copper radian spokes that constitute magnetic force line cutters, as the spoked disk counter rotates through the rotating magnetic lines of force of the generator.

  • Publication number: 20050053464
    Abstract: A method facilitates assembling a gas turbine engine. The method comprises providing a rotor assembly including a rotor shaft and a rotor disk that includes a radially outer rim, a radially inner hub, and an integral web extending therebetween, wherein the rotor assembly is rotatable about an axis of rotation extending through the rotor shaft, and coupling a disk retainer including at least one discharge tube to the rotor disk wherein the discharge tube extends outwardly from the disk retainer for pumping the air to a higher pressure before discharging cooling fluid therefrom in a direction that is substantially perpendicular with respect to the axis of rotation.
