  • Publication number: 20230187047
    Abstract: This document generally describes systems and methods for simulating a medication delivery system. Some embodiments can include a medication delivery simulation system that simulates an operation of a medication delivery system, such as delivery of a medication and detection of a response to the delivery. The simulation system can be used to simulate at least part of the operation of a medication delivery system and can check operations of one or more components in the medication delivery system, such as a pump, a sensor, a user device (e.g., a mobile device), and a server computing device.

  • Publication number: 20220409805
    Abstract: A therapy delivery device stores a plurality of time-dependent therapy settings. The therapy delivery device is configured to administer time-dependent therapies according to the time-dependent therapy settings based on a universal conception of time that is independent of a local time zone. A mobile device includes a display adapted to depict information about therapy or therapy-related data as compared to a local time that is stored on the mobile device based on a local time zone setting found in the mobile device. The therapy delivery device and a mobile application executing on the mobile device are configured to keep separate clocks, with each clock being based on a universal concept of time that is independent of a local time zone.

  • Publication number: 20220031948
    Abstract: A variety of location-based and/or proximity-based features related to diabetes management systems can be used to improve maintenance compliance and/or to provide important information to PWD designated assistance entities (e.g., family, friends, givers, HCPs, emergency medicine providers) under certain conditions. In some cases, a user's location can be tracked or determined to trigger and/or time alerts about upcoming maintenance tasks in a way that will increase the likelihood that the PWD will immediately perform the designated maintenance task. In some cases, methods, devices, and systems provided herein can use proximity to non-paired mobile computing devices to deliver data to PWD designated assistance entities.

  • Patent number: 11229810
    Abstract: Methods and systems are described for producing non-invasive and targeted neuronal lesions using magnetic resonance and acoustic energy. Imaging data corresponding to a region of interest is obtained, the region of interest within an imaging subject. Information indicative of a target region within the region of interest is received from the obtained imaging data. Focused acoustic energy directed to the target region within the region of interest is generated to disrupt a barrier between a therapeutic agent and parenchymal tissue in response to insonification by the focused acoustic energy, the therapeutic agent comprising a neurotoxin and microbubbles.

  • Patent number: 5174576
    Abstract: A portable mirror apparatus for a golfer to view his swing which has a U-shaped hollow tubular frame (20) with cross bars (34), (36) and (38) inbetween, also divided in the middle and a mirror (40) attached on the front. A pair of retracting legs (48) support the invention in the vertical position each having a support bar (52) for stiffening. The invention folds in the middle for transportation and storage with the legs pivoted inward contiguous with the frame. The mirror contains marks in the form of lines (42) both horizontal and vertical to indicate proper alignment of the golfer during the swing of a golf club. The mirror is thermoplastic for strength and durability, also to reduce weight.
