  • ADMINISTRATION SERVICES FOR GOALS PLATFORMS
    Publication number: 20240095645
    Abstract: A method of generating customizable goal representation is disclosed. A request from a user to view a goal representation is received. A flexible goal ontology is accessed that comprises one or more goal entities, one or more goal relationships between the goal entities, or one or more goal properties, the one or more goal properties including one or more metadata attributes relating to the one or more goal entities. A set of mapping rules is obtained that defines mappings between one or more goals. The set of mapping rules is evaluated to assemble a customized goal representation tailored to the user. The customized goal representation is updated based on a revaluation of the mapping rules affected by changes to the one or more goal entities, the one or more goal relationships, or the one or more properties.

  • Navigable catheter distal tip configuration
    Patent number: 10532185
    Abstract: In some examples, a catheter includes an elongated body extending between a proximal end and a distal end, and defining an inner lumen, an outer body wall having a wall cross-sectional diameter, and a distal aperture at the distal end. A distal portion of the elongated body including a taper section that tapers from the outer body wall of the distal portion to the distal aperture, with the distal portion defining a plurality of slits open to the distal aperture. The distal aperture has an aperture diameter greater than zero and less than the wall cross-sectional diameter. The distal portion defining the plurality of slits is configured to substantially center the distal end around a guide member when the guide member is introduced in the inner lumen and extends through the distal aperture.

  • Cross-reference to related applications
    Publication number: 20070102318
    Abstract: A package 10 has a sliding blister card 12 and a locking sleeve 14 made from a base 16 and a top 18. The card is made from conventional blister dose packaging material, with blisters 30 formed in a single layer plastic top holding medicaments on a sealing paper, board, or foil layer. The top and base form a closed case, open along one end 26. Blister cards with receiving aperture(s) 34 are slid between guides and cylinders, and pushed inward until detent(s) 29 engage aperture(s) 34. Appurtenant(s) 48 adjacent to the detent(s) urge the blister card to engage the detent(s) at the card's receiving aperture. Pressing on release 20 disengages the card and detent by warping the card to move the aperture away from the detent so that the card may be slid through the open end of the sleeve. Reverse pressure easily slides the blister card back into the containment element without manipulation of parts.
