  • Patent number: 12067360
    Abstract: An example method includes receiving, by a computing system, an identification of a recipient of an electronic message being composed from a message account associated with a user; predicting, by the computing system and based on text contained in previous electronic messages sent from the message account, text for a body of the electronic message; and outputting, for display, the predicted text for optional selection and insertion into the body of the electronic message.

  • Publication number: 20240252046
    Abstract: A non-invasive electronic patient monitor tracks one or more physiological parameters of a patient, such as intravascular volume index (IVI), extravascular volume index (EVI), total hemoglobin (SpHb), impedance, and/or weight. The patient monitor determines if one or more of the physiological parameters are within a predetermined range. The patient monitor activates an alarm if one or more of the physiological parameters are outside the predetermined range and indicates a patient can be experiencing edema and/or heart failure, or sepsis.

  • Publication number: 20240003729
    Abstract: A method and a system for the time determination of a phase interface level of a multiphase fluid present in a vertical pipe, include placing a distributed optical fiber sensor comprising an optical fiber cable wound in spiral around the pipe and optically coupled to a DAS interrogator, determining, from the data acquired by the DAS interrogator, the power spectral density over a predetermined duration and for each point of a discretized length of the optical fiber cable, integrating the power spectral density over a predefined frequency band for each point of the discretized length of the optical fiber cable, and setting in matrix form the results of the integration of the power spectral density in order to determine at least one interface level of the multiphase fluid.

  • Publication number: 20230385543
    Abstract: A computing system is described that includes user interface components configured to receive typed user input; and one or more processors. The one or more processors are configured to: receive, by a computing system and at a first time, a first portion of text typed by a user in an electronic message being edited; predict, based on the first portion of text, a first candidate portion of text to follow the first portion of text; output, for display, the predicted first candidate portion of text for optional selection to append to the first portion of text; determine, at a second time that is after the first time, that the electronic message is directed to a sensitive topic; and responsive to determining that the electronic message is directed to a sensitive topic, refrain from outputting subsequent candidate portions of text for optional selection to append to text in the electronic message.

  • Publication number: 20230386658
    Abstract: A web-based interface enables medical personnel to remotely monitor medical devices. A monitoring system records operational data and alarms from the medical devices in a file. However, since network connections between the medical devices and the monitoring system are intermittent, the file does not contain a contiguous stream of data for each medical device. The file pauses recording during gaps in network connectivity. The system displays current data, as well as a list of alarms. If medical personnel wish to view more detail about an earlier time or one of the alarms, the system calculates where in the file the medical device data was recorded. This calculation accounts for the discontiguous nature of the data. The system uses times the network connection is made and broken to calculate an index into the file that corresponds to the time of the user-selected alarm.

  • Publication number: 20230230405
    Abstract: A medical device monitoring system and method extract information from screen images from medical device controllers, with a single OCR process invocation per screen image, despite critical information appearing in different screen locations, depending on which medical device controller's screen image is processed. For example, different software versions of the medical device controllers might display the same type of information in different screen locations. Copies of the critical screen information, one copy from each different screen location, are made in a mosaic image, and then the mosaic image is OCR processed to produce text results. Text is selectively extracted from the OCR text results, depending on contents of a selector field on the screen image, such as a software version number or a heart pump model identifier.

  • Publication number: 20200314207
    Abstract: A medical device monitoring system and method extract information from screen images from medical device controllers, and intelligently vary rates at which the screen images are fetched from the respective medical device controllers, so as to reduce computer network load, timely report high-priority information, such as alarms, and provide information at intervals requested by users. The rates at which the screen images are fetched are automatically varied based on information available to a server, such as available network bandwidth, level of network congestion, number of medical device controllers co-located at a single medical institution or on a given local area network (LAN), alarm status of a medical device controller and/or historical timing information regarding use of medical devices connected to the medical device controllers.
