  • Patent number: 12592303
    Abstract: Methods and systems for performing dose regimen modification are provided. The methods and systems perform operations comprising: receiving prescription related data for treating a patient with an expected level of efficacy, the prescription related data comprising medication regimen information including dose and interval; determining, using a model, a first amount of drug waste based on the prescription related data; comparing the first amount of drug waste to a threshold value; and in response to determining that the first amount of drug waste transgresses the threshold value, identifying an alternate medication regimen that is associated with a treatment having a given level of efficacy corresponding to the expected level of efficacy, the alternate medication regimen being associated with a second amount of drug waste that is lower than the first amount of drug waste; and triggering a notification associated with the alternate medication regimen.

  • Publication number: 20250154097
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing isocyanates by reacting at least one amine or the salt thereof with a stoichiometric excess of phosgene in the condensed phase in the presence of a solvent, having the steps of: A) transitioning to a hot phosgenation process and B) expelling remaining phosgene and/or hydrogen chloride. The invention is characterized in that the reaction is carried out in batches in at least two reactors which are arranged parallel to one another and in that step A) and/or step B) is carried out asynchronously in at least two of the reactors arranged parallel to one another.

  • Publication number: 20070168359
    Abstract: A method for use in processing audio includes receiving audio data associated with each of two or more characters in a virtual world, determining a proximity of the other characters in the virtual world for each of the characters, altering the received audio data based on the determined proximity of another one of the characters for each of the characters, and providing the altered audio data to a client associated with the other character for which the audio data was altered for each of the characters.
