Patent number: 11683676Abstract: A converged communication device comprises a first processor operable using a first communications protocol and a second processor operable using a second communications protocol. The first processor is configured to detect a factory reset. The factory reset selectively enables one of a multi-tier factory reset comprising: a factory reset of both the first and second processor; a factory reset of the first processor only; and a factory reset of the second processor only. The configuration may be triggered by an external input to the converged communication device.Type: GrantFiled: August 20, 2021Date of Patent: June 20, 2023Assignee: MOTOROLA SOLUTIONS. INC.Inventors: Sanjaykumar S Karpoor, Mykola Nikolayev, Robert Hartman, Yuval Namir, Mark Antilla, Graeme Johnson, Daniel P Zetzl

Publication number: 20160269440Abstract: A recipient-centric gateway sits at the corporate network perimeter, retaining all outgoing e-mail, organizing the e-mail by recipient so that senders or other designated individuals can view the retained mail from the perspective of the recipient. A login retry limit is based on password strength. A system that guarantees the sender that the recipient is not phished with e-mail fraudulently purported to be from the sender's domain. A system that, without communicating certificates or publishing certificates to third parties and without requiring any workflow changes, enables the transparent two way sending of secure e-mail. A system that, based on feedback and usage, optimizes mailbox responsiveness across the network.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 26, 2016Publication date: September 15, 2016Inventor: Robert HARTMAN

Publication number: 20150019257Abstract: Systems and methods for notifying clinicians of potential patient care risk scenarios and identifying remedial protocols to mitigate the risk. Patient data is downloaded from medical devices associated with the patient, such as, without limitation, a ventilator, bedside monitor, infusion pump, and/or dialysis machine. In addition physician medical orders and treatment notes are received. The patient data, medical orders, and treatment notes are analyzed by a state machine programmed to identify patient risk scenarios based upon known risk factors. Alerts and recommended courses of treatment are generated to enable caregivers to recognize high risk scenarios and to take preventative steps to reduce or avoid suboptimal outcomes. A plurality of state machines may be instantiated, enabling the system to monitor an arbitrary number of patients and treatment protocols.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 15, 2013Publication date: January 15, 2015Inventors: Peter Doyle, Gardner James Kimm, Mehdi M.

Publication number: 20150019256Abstract: A patient communication system includes a patient communication device, a facility update device, a server, and a portal. The patient communication device is in the bedside environment of a patient within the medical facility. The patient uses the patient communication device to post statuses and send messages to individuals outside of the medical facility to the server. The facility update device provides updates to the server from clinicians and medical devices in the bedside environment of the patient. The server compiles the information from the patient communication device and from the facility update device and automatically posts the status updates to a portal associated with the patient. The portal is accessed by the individuals associated with the patient to receive updates concerning the status of the patient.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 15, 2013Publication date: January 15, 2015Inventors: Peter Doyle, Gardner James Kimm, Mehdi M. Jafari, Warren Sanborn, Sidney A. Jacobi, Robert Hartman

Publication number: 20150013674Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method of issuing an alert for optimizing interaction between a patient and a ventilatory system. The method includes ventilating a patient using a ventilatory system and retrieving one or more of current ventilatory settings, collected ventilatory data, and patient data. The method also includes detecting corruption of interaction between a patient and the ventilatory system, determining one or more root causes of the corruption, and determining and displaying a recommendation for resolving the corruption based on the one or more root causes.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 15, 2013Publication date: January 15, 2015Inventors: Peter Doyle, Gardner James Kimm, Mehdi M. Jafari, Warren Sanborn, Sidney A. Jacobi, Robert Hartman

Publication number: 20150019237Abstract: A method for computer assisted holistic patient monitoring includes receiving patient parameters from at least one medical device monitoring a patient, receiving historical patient data from a database, receiving clinician-generated data from a remote device, generating advisory feedback based on the received patient parameters, the received historical data, and the received clinician-generated data, and outputting the advisory feedback for review by a clinician. The method may further include the step of receiving a clinician response to the advisory feedback and storing the clinician response in the database. Additionally, the advisory feedback may be delivered to a second remote device operated by a supervising clinician.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 15, 2013Publication date: January 15, 2015Inventors: Peter Doyle, Gardner James Kimm, Mehdi M. Jafari, Warren Sanborn, Sidney A. Jacobi, Robert Hartman

Publication number: 20140236625Abstract: A method for indentifying a clinician team using a computer system including accessing a social graph with nodes for each clinician in a medial institution and collecting patient data from patients treated by the medical institution. Edges are created between patient nodes and element nodes corresponding to patient data. Edges are also created between each element node the clinician node of each treating clinician. Additional edges are created by monitoring the usage of patient data by each clinician. A weight is assigned to each connection between each of the nodes. A data set is created which scores each clinician node with respect to a chosen node. Each clinician with a clinician node with a score over a threshold score is displayed. The display may automatically form a team of clinicians.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 15, 2013Publication date: August 21, 2014Applicant: COVIDIEN LPInventor: Robert Hartman

Publication number: 20140188499Abstract: Systems and corresponding methodologies that enable continuous, real-time or near real-time monitoring of joint activity of patients who are undergoing physical therapy is provided. A joint's motion patterns can be measured using a six degree of freedom combine accelerometer, magnometer and gyroscope sensors that are placed above and below (or in proximity of) the joint. The data is stored on a data logger that is carried by a patient, e.g., clipped to the patient's belt and can be uploaded onto a website when attached to a computer, e.g., via a USB cord. While portable sensors are available in the market for research or gaming purposes, one key feature of the device is to provide continuous monitoring of the injured joint and electronically relay this information to the therapist, for example, via the designated website. Thus, the therapist is always informed about the patient's joint and could recommend alterations to their treatment plan.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 12, 2012Publication date: July 3, 2014Inventors: Kevin Bell, Bernard P. Bechara, Robert A. Hartman
