  • Patent number: 11304812
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to methods of; non-transitory, computer-readable media for; and systems for fabricating or modifying an implant. One example embodiment includes a method. The method includes registering a plurality of intraoperative locations of a surgically resected anatomical region of a patient. The method also includes generating, based on the registered plurality of intraoperative locations, a two-dimensional representation of the registered plurality of intraoperative locations. Further, the method includes determining, based on the two-dimensional representation, a two-dimensional shape of an anatomical feature excised from the surgically resected anatomical region. In addition, the method includes determining, based on the two-dimensional shape of the anatomical feature and a three-dimensional model of a portion of the patient that contains the surgically resected anatomical region, a three-dimensional shape of the anatomical feature.

  • Patent number: 10383794
    Abstract: Example embodiments relate to medication compliance alert devices. An example embodiment includes a method. The method includes capturing information about a medication label associated with a medication. The method also includes analyzing, by a first computing device, the information about the medication label to extract medication information. Further, the method includes generating, by the first computing device, a medication schedule for a corresponding patient associated with the medication. The medication schedule includes a dosage strength and dosage frequency. In addition, the method includes prompting, by a second computing device, the corresponding patient to take an amount of the medication corresponding to the dosage strength at a predetermined time according to the medication schedule. Still further, the method includes receiving, by the second computing device, an indication that the corresponding patient has taken the amount of the medication corresponding to the dosage strength.

  • Patent number: 9949895
    Abstract: A device can include an alert mechanism and a detection mechanism. The alert mechanism can activate an alert for a user to take a medication from a target medication receptacle. The detection mechanism can detect a tag associated with a medication receptacle. Actions may be performed based on a correlation between the detected tag and the target medication receptacle, such as deactivating the alert based at least in part on detecting the tag associated with the target medication receptacle.

  • Publication number: 20060067821
    Abstract: An airfoil having a root, a tip, and an outer surface for pressuring air flowable thereover. The outer surface includes one or more slots elongate in a direction selected to preclude or reduce circulation within the slots, and the one or more slots are configured to bleed a boundary layer from the outer surface to the tip utilizing one or more passageways within the airfoil.
