  • Patent number: 11763929
    Abstract: A medical tool is described for supporting an individual suffering from a mental condition or disorder characterized by auditory psychosis symptoms. The tool can assist in training the individual to distinguish between an acute auditory psychosis episode and ambient sounds. The tool can monitor for a non-audio input by a patient, where the input represents an indication that the patient is hearing sounds potentially symptomatic of psychosis. A microphone can monitor ambient sounds, which are tested against a threshold to determine and whether an auditory psychosis episode may be occurring.

  • Publication number: 20230203995
    Abstract: In some examples, a system including a gas turbine engine, the engine including a high-pressure (HP) shaft; HP compressor; HP turbine, second shaft; second compressor; second turbine, the second turbine being coupled to the second compressor via the second shaft (e.g., LP shaft); and a generator coupled to the LP shaft. The generator is configured to generate electrical power from rotation of the LP shaft, and increase electrical power generated by the generator to increase a torque applied to the LP shaft by the generator, e.g., in combination with reduction in engine thrust, or in response to the detection of a stall and/or surge of the engine. The increase in torque applied to the second shaft is configured to increase a rate at which a rotational speed of the second shaft decreases, e.g., in combination with the reduction in engine thrust or during the stall/surge of the engine.

  • Publication number: 20230084447
    Abstract: A sterilization system with automated sterilization data processing and related methods. In one aspect, the sterilization system receives mechanical indicator values and chemical indicator values for the sterilization cycle. The system determines whether the mechanical indicator values and chemical indicator values for the sterilization cycle match predetermined criteria. In response to the mechanical indicator and chemical indicator values for the sterilization cycle matching predetermined criteria, the system automatically generates a sterilization record in accordance with the first sterilization cycle data and second sterilization cycle data, stores the sterilization record in a sterilization database, and prints a sterilization label for each sterilized item in the sterilization cycle. Each sterilization label includes a Quick Response (QR) code encoding information for sterilization cycle.
