  • Patent number: 12282963
    Abstract: Methods and systems described herein are directed to automatedly generating and issuing accident data gathering recommendations for a vehicle accident occurrence. In response to a recommendation system detecting an occurrence of a vehicle accident, the system can retrieve initial accident data for the occurrence. Using the initial accident data, the system can generate accident data gathering recommendations to obtain additional accident data via mapping to one or more characteristics for the vehicle accident occurrence. The recommendations, when executed, can yield additional accident data that can be compiled with the initial accident data into a vehicle accident evidence package.

  • Publication number: 20250099341
    Abstract: Systems, apparatus, and methods for placing and/or confirming a location of an end of a nasogastric or an orogastric tube within a body cavity are described herein. In some embodiments, an apparatus includes an elongated tube and a position indicator. The elongated tube has a first end, a second end, and defines a lumen. The position indicator is coupled to the elongated tube and disposed sufficiently close to the first end such that, when the first end is properly disposed in the cavity of the patient, the position indicator is disposed in the cavity of the patient. The position indicator is configured to produce an indication perceivable outside of the patient that the position indicator is disposed in the cavity of the patient. The indication is an indication differentiable from a sound naturally generated by the cavity of the patient.
