Patent number: 9501482Abstract: An exemplary method includes an on-demand content management system detecting a user request for a content library view and displaying, in response to the request, the content library view in a graphical user interface, the content library view including a list of entries graphically representing a plurality of on-demand content instances included in a library of on-demand content, the list of entries comprising a first set of one or more entries representing one or more on-demand content instances included in the library and in a download queue and a second set of one or more entries representing one or more other on-demand content instances included in the library but not in the download queue, wherein a position of the first set of entries is prioritized over a position of the second set of entries in the list of entries. Corresponding methods and systems are also disclosed.Type: GrantFiled: March 30, 2012Date of Patent: November 22, 2016Assignee: VERIZON PATENT AND LICENSING INC.Inventors: Heath Stallings, Omar Abou-Khamis, Andrien J. Wang, Don G. Archer, Nathan J. Maxfield, Matthew R. Bruce, Jarrod S. Courtney, Michael S. Sanchez, Michelle Felt

Patent number: 8696596Abstract: A device and method for lancing a patient, virtually simultaneously producing and collecting a small fluid sample from a body. The device comprises a blood collection system including a lancing needle (16), drive mechanism (11), kneading or vibration mechanism (25), optional suction system (7), and sample ejection mechanism. The device is preferably sized to be hand-held in one hand and operable with one hand. The device can optionally contain integral testing or analysis component (83) for receiving the sample and providing testing or analysis indication or readout for the user. A method involves piercing the skin at a rapid rate, kneading the surrounding area by ultrasonic action, piezoelectric or mechanical oscillation to stimulate the blood flow from the wound, drawing the fluid using a pumping system.Type: GrantFiled: December 22, 2009Date of Patent: April 15, 2014Assignee: Roche Diagnostics Operations, Inc.Inventors: Joel S. Douglas, Jeffrey N. Roe, Ryszard Radwanski, Henry M. Grage, Michael S. Sanchez

Publication number: 20100331731Abstract: A device and method for lancing a patient, virtually simultaneously producing and collecting a small fluid sample from a body. The device comprises a blood collection system including a lancing needle, drive mechanism, kneading or vibration mechanism, optional suction system, and sample ejection mechanism. The device is preferably sized to be hand-held in one hand and operable with one hand. The device can optionally contain integral testing or analysis component for receiving the sample and providing testing or analysis indication or readout for the user. In one configuration, the lancing needle may be withdrawn very slightly from the point of maximum penetration to create an opening in which blood can pool before being suctioned through to device.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 29, 2010Publication date: December 30, 2010Inventors: Joel S.
