Patent number: 10973528Abstract: A modular wound treatment system includes a central modular hub having a modular connection for one or more pneumatically-actuated, modular components, such as a pneumatically-actuated soft robotic gripper component configured to curve and at least partially encircle the wound when actuated and thereby apply direct pressure to the wound, and a pneumatically-actuated tourniquet component configured to apply pressure proximal to the wound to limit the flow of arterial blood to the wound. The system also includes a pressurized gas supply in pneumatic communication with the modular connection, sensors for measuring the amount of pressure being applied by the pneumatically-actuated, modular components, a display for providing system information, and a controller for controlling the system. Methods of treating a wounded subject using the system are also provided.Type: GrantFiled: April 2, 2020Date of Patent: April 13, 2021Assignee: The Government of the United States of America, as represented by the Secretary of Homeland SecurityInventors: Howard Rittenhouse, Michael Bishop, Michael Zeller, Perry Jenkins, Jonathan Yake, Ronald Adrezin, Michael Plumley, Paola Jaramillo Cienfuegos, Michael Daeffler

Publication number: 20070050289Abstract: A system for processing credit applications. An adaptive decision engine produces a score determined by the risk associated with a credit application. The credit application is automatically approved or rejected if the score is above or below certain thresholds, and is otherwise referred for manual processing. The system may include a rules system that automatically approves applications if all conditions are met, and generates exceptions if all conditions are not met and refers the application to the adaptive decision engine for further processing. A decision to approve or reject an application may be based on a combination of the risk score and number of exceptions.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 15, 2005Publication date: March 1, 2007Inventors: Michael Zeller, Alex Guazzelli
