    Abstract: A system and method are disclosed that track a deliverable to a user. The system includes an identifier or tag secured to the deliverable, a computer system for interrogating the identifier, and a personal device in communication with the computer system, wherein the personal device is held by the user at the time the user is administered the deliverable to detect the unique identity associated with the identifier device and confirms delivery of the deliverable to the user. The method includes attaching an identifiable tag that produces a unique signature to the deliverable, interrogating the tag at about the time of delivery to the user, and confirming that the user has been administered the deliverable through detecting the identifiable tag.

  • Patent number: 10376218
    Abstract: A device for gathering data has first and second electrodes. The first electrode is coupled to a surface of interest, and the second electrode is coupled to “everything else” or “the air”. The first electrode is shielded from the second, and from most sources of parasitic capacitance, by a shield that is driven by an active driver that drives the shield to track, and ideally to match, the instantaneous potential of the electrode. The second electrode is likewise shielded in a similar way from most sources of parasitic capacitance. These shields likewise help to limit the extent to which RFI from the device electronics couples with either of the electrodes. In this way the sensing device achieves a markedly better signal-to-noise ratio at frequency bands of interest.

  • Publication number: 20180279910
    Abstract: A system including a sensor, a mobile device, and a computer system is disclosed. The sensor is configured to detect physiologic data from the body of the patient. The mobile device includes a patient data input device. The computer system, communicatively coupled to the mobile device, includes a patient record indicating: patient data comprising a plurality of patient activities, and detected physiological data received from the sensor via the mobile device. The computer system is configured to identify an unhealthy physiological data value from the detected physiological data of the patient record, correlate the unhealthy physiological data value to a patient activity of the patient data, select a therapeutic recommendation to address the unhealthy physiological data value, and transmit the selected therapeutic recommendation to the patient, via the mobile device, at a future time associated with the patient activity correlated to the unhealthy physiological data value.
