  • Publication number: 20240374149
    Abstract: In accordance with some embodiments, systems, methods, and media for estimating compensatory reserve and predicting hemodynamic decompensation using physiological data are provided. In some embodiments, a system for estimating compensatory reserve is provided, the system comprising: a processor programmed to: receive a blood pressure waveform of a subject; generate a first sample of the blood pressure waveform with a first duration; provide the sample as input to a trained CNN that was trained using samples of the first duration from blood pressure waveforms recorded from subjects while decreasing the subject's central blood volume, each sample being associated with a compensatory reserve metric; receive, from the trained CNN, a first compensatory reserve metric based on the first sample; and cause information indicative of remaining compensatory reserve to be presented.

  • Patent number: 5316171
    Abstract: A thermal insulating shipping container having an elongate rectangular box-like configuration, made up of panels, each having an evacuated area therein. Each panel comprises inner and outer panel sections each having inner and outer skins and a honeycomb core. Standoff units in the evacuated area resist compression loads exerted on the inner and outer panel sections, and a radiation shield is positioned in the evacuated area.

  • Patent number: 4992123
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for laying down a weft filament. The weft yarns are propelled over a moving substrate, whereupon they are clamped and pulled down into the substrate. The apparatus propels the filaments through an elongate hollow chamber where they are clamped by clamping means. They are then transferred from the chamber onto the substrate. By pivoting the apparatus the angles at which the filaments can be layed onto the substrate can be carefully controlled enabling hitherto unobtainable products to be produced.

  • Patent number: 4973490
    Abstract: This invention relates to a method of producing animal feed products.A method of producing animal feed products using rapeseed is described wherein rapeseed is mixed together with the species Vicia Faba (field beans) in predetermined proportions and the mix is extruded at a predetermined temperature to substantially inactivate components in the rapeseed and said species which otherwise directly or indirectly cause components in the extruded product which are detrimental when contained in an animal feed product.
