  • Publication number: 20250076279
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for managing information dealing with a medical test for assessing a predetermined medical condition by means of a distributed system (100) comprising a plurality of communication devices (210, 312, 322, 410), the method comprising obtaining by a user communication device (210) information on an access code provided in a test-kit for assessing a predetermined medical condition, the user communication device (210) being configured for receiving and displaying messages addressed to a unique identifier. Further, the method comprises providing instructions relating to analysis of the medical sample. A negative analysis result is communicated to the user communication device (210) of the user. In case of a positive analysis result, consultation by a medical entity is established. Further aspects relate to a user communication device, a computer program product, a central server and a medical test-kit for use with the proposed method.

  • Patent number: 11342868
    Abstract: A method for identifying the magnetic anisotropy of an electric rotary field machine comprising a rotor and a stator is described, the method comprising the steps of setting injection pulses of equal absolute values during an injection interval, detecting a respective current response in form of current difference vectors, and determining the anisotropy from the voltage vectors and current difference vectors. Such a method should allow identifying of magnetic anisotropy in a simple way. To this end, injection pulses in the three-phase domain are used.
