Publication number: 20070129983Abstract: A task management system uses patient tags (e.g., wireless RFID, Infrared tracking, GPS etc.) for patient location tracking, together with an integrated workflow system to automatically, track patient location how long they have been there and how many patients are at the same location (e.g., waiting room) and manages waiting time and an overall waiting queue, supporting automated adjustment of healthcare staffing, patient flows, and team coordination. A task management system for use in providing healthcare to a patient includes a patient tracking processor and a workflow processor. The patient tracking processor automatically acquires data derived by wireless communication from patient attached tag devices for use in identifying a location of multiple patients in a healthcare enterprise and identifying a first number of patients at a particular location and a second number of patients awaiting receiving a particular type of treatment.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 13, 2006Publication date: June 7, 2007Applicant: SIEMENS MEDICAL SOLUTIONS HEALTH SERVICES CORPORATIONInventors: Harm Scherpbier, John Weis

Patent number: 6475271Abstract: A multicolor ink jet printing process employs an ink jet ink composition comprising water, a colorant of pigment, dye, or mixtures thereof, and a low boiling point additive to produce high quality multicolor ink jet images with minimal intercolor bleed and lines with sharp edges as characterized by a relatively low mid frequency line edge noise (MFLEN) number. The additive is an alcohol or thiol having a boiling point less than or equal to about 115° C. The aforementioned ink jet ink composition can further include an optional additive of alcohol or thiol with a boiling point less than or equal to about 135° C. if necessary. The desired additive increases the ink's drying rate with fast evaporation and an accelerated penetration into a print substrate (e.g. paper) upon printing. As a result, little or minimum residual ink (e.g. carbon black ink) comprising the aforementioned additive is available on the surface of the print substrate to intermix with a previously or subsequently printed ink (e.g.Type: GrantFiled: December 28, 2000Date of Patent: November 5, 2002Assignee: Xerox CorporationInventor: John Wei-Ping Lin

Patent number: 6383275Abstract: The present invention relates to aqueous ink jet ink compositions comprising an anti-intercolor bleed agent, preferably a water soluble or ink-compatible agent. The inks typically also comprise water and at least a colorant of a dye, a pigment, or a mixture of dye and pigment. In one embodiment, ink jet ink compositions comprising an anti-intercolor bleed agent which is represented by {[(R)m—G)b]n}s(A)(X)p (Formula (I)), and ink jet printing processes which print the ink jet ink compositions in any desired printing sequence or order onto an optionally heated substrate are provided. The water-soluble or ink-compatible anti-intercolor bleed agent may form hydrophobic layers near the image boundary, thus preventing undesired mixing of two different neighboring inks which forms intercolor bleed. The ink jet ink compositions of the present invention exhibit reduced drying time, intercolor bleeding, and image defect as well as providing uniform ink images on transparencies.Type: GrantFiled: November 24, 1999Date of Patent: May 7, 2002Assignee: Xerox CorporationInventor: John Wei-Ping Lin
