Patent number: 11900290Abstract: One embodiment provides a method for generating a predictive display on a graphical user interface. The method includes benchmarking performance of a hospital by evaluating metrics of departments within the hospital. The method includes obtaining current facility utilization information for each of the departments within the hospital. The method includes displaying, on a user interface, a graphical display of the current facility utilization information for each of the departments. The method includes receiving a user selection of a second time that is a future time relative to the current time. The method includes calculating at least one predictive utilization level of the departments at the second time. The method includes calculating a difference between the predictive utilization level and the current utilization level.

Patent number: 9047873Abstract: A self-contained breathing and communication apparatus is described that can facilitate communication between a first user and a second user. A microphone can record sound when the first user speaks. The microphone can convert the recorded sound to a voice signal. A voice activity detection processor can detect spoken words and informative sounds of the first user from the converted voice signal. For this detection, the voice activity detection processor can remove noise from the voice signal. A voice-to-text processor can convert the detected words and informative sounds to a text message. A transmitter of the transmitting module can transmit the text message to a receiver of the second user via a communication network. A display device of the second user can display the text message on a graphical user interface. Related methods, apparatus, systems, techniques and articles are also described.Type: GrantFiled: December 21, 2012Date of Patent: June 2, 2015Assignee: Draeger Safety, Inc.Inventor: Joseph C. Schuck
