Abstract: A system for providing aggregated patient data may include a processor and memory. The processor may receive clinical data items from a healthcare data system and device data items from healthcare devices, where the clinical data items and the device data items are associated with patients. The processor may generate patient data objects corresponding to the patients, where each patient data object includes the clinical data items and the device data items associated with one of the patients. The processor may filter the patient data objects based on access privileges of a third party organization to generate filtered patient data objects and transform the filtered patient data objects based on a data transformation rule associated with the third party organization to generate transformed patient data objects. The processor may provide, e.g. over a network, the transformed patient data objects to at least one device associated with the third party organization.

Abstract: A bottom loaded water dispenser having a water dispensing area that can be elongated to accommodate any size refillable bottle or other container, including large or wide based bottles or refillable containers. The bottom loaded water dispenser accommodates a standard bottom loaded water bottle. The bottom loaded water dispenser has a door that fits into the recess of the dispenser housing that does not interfere with bottom loaded water bottle and allows the drip tray to be adjusted to any height under the dispensing nozzle.

Abstract: A method of generating thickened collagen bundles or clusters, comprising the steps of: preparing a neutralized collagen gel sample; warming the neutralized collagen gel sample to provide a warmed neutralized collagen gel sample; and agitating the warmed neutralized collagen gel sample to provide an agitated collagen gel sample.

Abstract: A centralized communication system is disclosed that provides a modular, extendible, and scalable communication system that can exchange information between any information systems or networked devices. Adapter interfaces are provided to modify message communications between medical systems in a hospital network, and a graphic interface is provided for modification of communication topology information pertaining to the adapter interfaces in the centralized communication system. The graphical interface provides one or more controls configured to modify at least a portion of the communication topology information, and displays an indication of the modification.

Abstract: A centralized communication system (CCS) is disclosed that provides a modular, extendible, and scalable communication system that can exchange information between any information systems or networked devices. Information from a single source device or system can be selectively broadcast to one or more predetermined destination devices and systems rather than broadcast to every device on the network. Information may be filtered and processed at one or more selectable points in the communication flow between systems. In certain embodiments, an incoming message is received from the source device in the native message format using the native protocol of the source device and converted to an internal messaging format for internal handling within the CCS, then converted to the native message format of a receiving system and sent to the receiving system using its native protocol. In certain embodiments, a graphical representation of the topology of the CCS may be provided.
