Publication number: 20240249807Abstract: Methods are provided for the surveillance and monitoring of a patient's medical care when the patient is treated at two or more medical organizations having different medical record systems. Patient information is received from a first medical organization and populated into an active risk assessment array that monitors the patient's risk for developing a particular disease or condition. Patient information is then received from a second medical organization and populated into the array. It is determined that actionable criteria have been met, and in response, a notification or alert is sent to the medical organizations indicating that the patient is at risk.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 2, 2024Publication date: July 25, 2024Applicant: CERNER INNOVATION, INC.Inventors: Mark A. HOFFMAN, Hugh RYAN, Bharat SUTARIYA, Leo V. PEREZ, John KUCKELMAN

Publication number: 20230343221Abstract: Technologies for platooned include a leader vehicle and one or more follower vehicles each including a computing device. The leader vehicle computing device controls velocity of the leader vehicle within a predetermined route based on a grade profile of the predetermined route. The leader vehicle may perform nonlinear model predictive control using a cost function based on predicted velocity error and predicted fuel consumption. The follower vehicle computing device controls velocity of the follower vehicle within the predetermined route based on headway distance to the leader vehicle and the grade profile. The follower vehicle may perform nonlinear model predictive control using a cost function based on predicted headway error, predicted headway rate of change, and predicted fuel consumption. Other embodiments are described and claimed.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 21, 2023Publication date: October 26, 2023Inventors: Jacob Ward, Evan Stegner, Mark A. Hoffman, David M. Bevly

Patent number: 11398310Abstract: Methods are provided for validating theoretical improvements in the decision-support processes facilitating surveillance and monitoring of a patient's risk for developing a particular disease or condition and detecting the disease or condition. Patient information is received from a source and populated into an active risk assessment that monitors the patient's risk for developing Sepsis. At least a first and second set of actionable criteria for determining a patient's risk for developing sepsis are received. For each set of actionable criteria, it is determined that actionable criteria have been met. In some embodiments, software agents, operating in a multi-agent computing platform, perform each determination of whether actionable criteria are met.Type: GrantFiled: May 7, 2020Date of Patent: July 26, 2022Assignee: CERNER INNOVATION, INC.Inventors: Douglas S.

Publication number: 20180122516Abstract: Processes implemented within a computer system for preventing atypical clinical events resulting from administering unsuitable clinical agent(s) are provided. Initially, the processes involve receiving a list of possible clinical agent(s) that may be administered to a patient during a medical procedure. The processes further involve acquiring heredity data associated with the clinical agent(s) by comparing the clinical agent(s) against a data set or the patient's medical records. If the heredity data indicates that the patient scheduled to receive the clinical agent(s) would experience atypical clinical events as a potential outcome, a warning that the clinical agent(s) should not be administered by a clinician is presented or reference information about the atypical clinical event is output. Accordingly, a preemptive determination of the atypical clinical events potentially occurring upon administering the clinical agent(s) to the patient is made.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 27, 2017Publication date: May 3, 2018Inventors: MARK A.
