Publication number: 20230014808Abstract: A remote patient monitoring system having a main patient monitor and a remote patient monitor. The main patient monitor is configured to receive and collect one or more patient physiological parameters and to provide an alarm in response to an alarm trigger. The alarm trigger includes a determination that at least one of the collected patient physiological parameters has reached a predetermined value. The remote patient monitor has an alarm reset and is configured to be carried by a caregiver. It is also configured to receive a signal from the main patient monitor in response to the alarm and to transmit an indication about the alarm trigger. The indication includes one or more of a notification that the patient is being attended to, a request by the caregiver for additional help, or a message about resolution of the alarm trigger.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 23, 2022Publication date: January 19, 2023Inventors: Richard Mark Lyon, Robert G.

Patent number: 9358087Abstract: The power appliance (10) for cleaning teeth includes a drive system (16) and a substrate (10) for supporting a field of bristles (14) which contact teeth for cleaning. The drive system is connected to the substrate, moving the substrate in operation to produce an action of the bristle field against the teeth. The assembly, which includes internal stiffeners (60, 62, 64) in one embodiment, has two physical states, including a first state in which the substrate is softened so as to be formable to conform to the geometry of the teeth, and a second hardened state following its conformance to the teeth in which the substrate is sufficiently rigid to effectively transmit a driving motion to the bristles.Type: GrantFiled: December 9, 2011Date of Patent: June 7, 2016Assignee: KONINKLIJKE PHILIPS N.V.Inventors: Kevin A. Miller, Patrick A. Headstrom, Bethany Joyce Johnson, Ian Gordon Blanch, Tijn Pieter Lodewijk Huttenhuis

Patent number: 9314159Abstract: A remote patient monitoring system provides patient physiological data and alerts/alarms from a main patient monitor to a remote patient monitor worn by a medical professional. The medical professional is alerted as to physiological data of the monitored patient, and provided alerts or alarms when predetermined levels are reached. The medical professional is able to reset the alert or alarms at the remote patient monitor.Type: GrantFiled: September 24, 2013Date of Patent: April 19, 2016Assignee: Physio-Control, Inc.Inventors: Richard Mark Lyon, Robert G.

Publication number: 20150265384Abstract: The appliance includes a body (12) which includes a tank (22) for liquid. A pump/regulator assembly (18, 20) maintains pressure in the tank in the range of 70-120 psi. A valve, timer and controller (30, 31, 37) controls sequential bursts of liquid, with each burst having a duration of 0.02-2 seconds, with the total amount of liquid in a single cleansing event being less approximately 0.2 ml or less. A firing rate is such that successive bursts of liquid are separated by a controlled time when there is no liquid delivery.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 27, 2013Publication date: September 24, 2015Applicant: Koninklijke Philips N.V.Inventors: Koji Intlekofer, Bethany Joyce Johnson

Publication number: 20140349246Abstract: An appliance body which includes a fluid delivery system providing a fluid flow to the appliance body and an exit for the fluid. A cavitation assembly is responsive to the fluid flow, and includes a constriction or obstruction member, wherein the flow rate to and through the cavitation assembly and the flow velocity and other factors results in a cavitation number in the range of 0.1 to 6, so that hydrodynamic cavitation is produced at the exit of the appliance for delivery to a treatment surface.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 13, 2012Publication date: November 27, 2014Applicant: KONINKLIJKE PHILIPS N.V.Inventors: Bethany Joyce Johnson, Tyler G.

Publication number: 20140100496Abstract: In one embodiment, a manual CPR device, also known as a CPR derrick, includes a frame that is put close to a patient who is on the ground. The device also includes a piston that can be moved up and down, and is aligned to be over the patient's chest. The device also has an actuator that the rescuer can operate manually so as to move the piston up and down, which will deliver compressions to the patient's chest. A bottom stop prevents the compressions from being too deep. In some embodiments, proper dimensioning of the CPR derrick permits the rescuer to perform CPR chest compressions while standing up, i.e. without kneeling. The rescuer may be able to perform higher quality CPR, and for a longer time, giving more opportunity to a life-saving team to arrive in time.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 19, 2013Publication date: April 10, 2014Applicant: PHYSIO-CONTROL, INC.Inventors: Bethany Joyce Johnson, John Carlton Daynes, Fred W. Chapman, Robert P. Marx, Jr., Gregory T. Kavounas, Erik Carl Bernhard von Schenck

Patent number: 6685527Abstract: An extendable, modular toy bank for storing coins and the like. The toy bank is substantially tubular and includes a head portion, a segmented extendable body portion and a tail portion. One of the portions, preferably the head portion, has a slot therein, dimensioned to receive a coin. The portions are hollow and, in combination, define an interior compartment. The body portion includes a plurality of tubular members, which may be bent, having forward and rearward ends that are adapted to be interconnected, end to end, by body segment connector rings placed therebetween, thereby elongating the body portion to increase the interior volume of the toy. A releasable locking mechanism on the ends of the head, body and tail portions of the toy interconnect with the body segment connector rings and enable the head, body and tail portions to be releasably attached to an adjacent tubular body portion segment of the device.Type: GrantFiled: September 17, 2002Date of Patent: February 3, 2004Inventor: Joyce Johnson
