  • Publication number: 20240079133
    Abstract: A ventilation system operates in one of a plurality of modes for communicating ventilation information with a computing device, and operating parameters of a ventilation device are remotely modified based on system data. Ventilation data is received from a ventilation device and an alarm associated with the ventilation device or the patient associated with the ventilation device is determined based on at least a portion of the ventilation data. Responsive to determining the alarm, the alarm is transmitted to the computing device before the ventilator data is transmitted to the computing device.

  • Publication number: 20230282444
    Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods for performing a non-contact electrical measurement (NCEM) on a NCEM-enabled cell included in a NCEM-enabled cell vehicle may be configured to perform NCEMs while the NCEM-enabled cell vehicle is moving. The movement may be due to vibrations in the system and/or movement of a movable stage on which the NCEM-enabled cell vehicle is positioned. Position information for an electron beam column producing the electron beam performing the NCEMs and/or for the moving stage may be used to align the electron beam with targets on the NCEM-enabled cell vehicle while it is moving.

  • Patent number: 11430282
    Abstract: A standard sized coin roll holder is loaded with a stack of alternating coins and spacers such that a variable number of coins can be accommodated in a standard sized holder. The number of coins loaded into the holder can be configured to be one more than the number of spacers, starting with a coin, then a spacer and so on, such that a coin occupies both the first position and the last position in the stack and making a coin face visible at each end. A twenty coin holder can be loaded, for example, with 10 coins and 9 spacers or with 5 coins and 4 spacers. A compressible silicone rubber washer can also be included to account for slight variations in coin thickness, thus securing the stack within the available height inside a closed and sealed case.

  • Publication number: 20220240881
    Abstract: A device may obtain first information relating to one or more first lung nodules identified in first imaging of a chest of a patient and second information relating to one or more second lung nodules identified in second imaging of the chest of the patient. The device may provide the first information and the second information to a machine learning model. The device may determine, using the machine learning model, a risk of lung cancer associated with the patient based on an elapsed time between performance of the first imaging and the second imaging and differences between the first information and the second information. The risk of lung cancer may have an inverse correlation to the elapsed time and a direct correlation to the differences.
