  • Publication number: 20240115824
    Abstract: Systems and methods can determine respiratory rates of a patient using a respiratory device by performing one or more frequency analyses of a signal from the gases flow. The signal from the gases flow can be one that varies with the patient's breathing. The system can include a non-sealed patient interface, such as a nasal cannula in a nasal high flow therapy, or any other patient interfaces. The respiratory system can also detect whether the patient has taken off the patient interface and/or whether the patient connected to the patient interface is talking or eating. Data of the patient's use of the respiratory system and the patient's respiratory rates can provide therapy compliance and long-term trend of use information and/or progress in the patient's respiratory functions and/or other physiological functions.

  • Patent number: 11171963
    Abstract: A multi-factored authentication system is provided to identify users. Accordingly, the authentication system may utilize a combination of multiple authentication methods to identify and authenticate a user, such as facial recognition, voice recognition, fingerprint/retinal recognition, detection of cards/chips or smartphones located with the user, PINs, passwords, cryptographic keys, tokens, and the like. The various authentication methods may be used to calculate a confidence value for the authentication system, where the confidence value reflects the degree of certainty of the user's identity. Each authentication method may, upon identifying a positive match for a user, increase the confidence value by a certain degree.

  • Publication number: 20210090043
    Abstract: Embodiments of the invention are directed to systems, methods, and computer program products for terminal based real-time resource deposition processing. In this way, a hold recommendation screen may be presented on a terminal upon identification of a potential hold on one or more physical resource distribution document depositions. The screen may transmit information regarding the hold to the user based on real-time decisioning at the terminal. The user able to reverse the recommendation and cancel a specific resource distribution document deposition within a group of resource distribution documents based on the processing hold indication.

  • Publication number: 20210090042
    Abstract: Embodiments of the invention are directed to systems, methods, and computer program products for a multi-group holding system at a computer terminal that does not require user re-authentication for continued depositing. The invention provides a multi-group hold capability so that a hold can be placed on more than one group of resource distribution documents in a session without requiring re-authentication for additional groups. The invention provides for a system for evaluating each group of resource distribution documents individually and providing the user with the ability to cancel a specific group, but allows for continued processing of the additional groups of resource distribution documents without requiring the user to re-authenticate and re-deposit the checks from the remaining groups. Once a group is held, the user may request to return it or continue processing another group.
