Patent number: 11273314Abstract: A defibrillator and method for using a defibrillator which adopts an ECG analysis algorithm that can detect a cardiac arrhythmia in the presence of noise artifact induced by cardio pulmonary resuscitation (CPR) compressions. The apparatus and method offers guidance throughout a cardiac rescue protocol involving both defibrillation shocks and CPR that improves the effectiveness of the rescue, resulting in more CPR “hands-on” time, better treatment of refibrillation, and reduced transition times between CPR and electrotherapy.Type: GrantFiled: May 16, 2019Date of Patent: March 15, 2022Assignee: Koninklijke Philips N.V.Inventors: Stacy Earl Gehman, James Knox Russell, Christopher William Fleming, Dawn Blilie Jorgenson, David Roy Axness

Patent number: 11197631Abstract: A defibrillator (AED) and method for using a defibrillator using two different ECG analysis algorithms which work sequentially to improve the accuracy of AED shock decisions. A first algorithm, such as (ART), is particularly suited for analysis in the presence of CPR periods. A second algorithm, such as (PAS), is particularly suited for analysis during hands-off periods. The AED switches algorithms depending on the period and on the current analysis of the cardiac rhythm. The inventions thus provide an optimized ECG analysis scheme in a manner that improves the effectiveness of the rescue, resulting in more CPR “hands-on” time, better treatment of refibrillation, and reduced transition times between CPR and electrotherapy.Type: GrantFiled: January 8, 2020Date of Patent: December 14, 2021Assignee: Koninklijke Philips N.V.Inventors: Chenguang Liu, Stacy Earl Gehman, James Knox Russell, Christopher William Fleming, Dawn Blilie Jorgenson, David Roy Axness, Jeffrey Martin Boschee

Publication number: 20210209185Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer readable medium for providing translated web content. A request is received from a user for content in a second language translated from content in a first language from a first Internet source. The content in the first language is obtained and divided into one or more translatable components. Whether the one or more translatable components have been previously translated, via at least one of machine translation, human translation, and a combination thereof, into the second language and stored as translated components in a storage is determined. If there are one or more translatable components previously translated and stored, the content is generated in the second language by modifying the content in the first language so that at least some translatable components are replaced with corresponding translated components and sent in the second language to the user as a response to the request.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 16, 2021Publication date: July 8, 2021Inventors: Enrique Travieso, Adam Rubenstein, William Fleming, Charles Whiteman, Eugenio Alvarez, Arcadio Andrade, Collin Birdsey

Patent number: 10752402Abstract: A technique for containing a wet article includes a top section, a middle section removably attached to the top section, and a bottom section removably attached to the middle section. The top section includes a dispenser and an article holding region. The dispenser forms a normally-closed compartment for holding liquid and has a depressible top. The top section is configured, upon depression of the depressible top, to open a passageway between the dispenser and the article-holding region for allowing liquid to flow from the dispenser to the article-holding region. The middle section includes a funnel having a more open end facing the top section and a less open end facing the bottom section. The funnel is configured to conduct fluid released from the wet article from the top section to the bottom section.Type: GrantFiled: April 17, 2018Date of Patent: August 25, 2020Assignee: FAMILY INNOVATORS B&F, LLCInventors: Cynthia Ann Beauregard, Edward Joseph Beauregard, Craig Edward Beauregard, Bethany Marie Fleming, James William Fleming

Publication number: 20200196723Abstract: A two-piece EMR-shielding smart-key holder is disclosed including a first piece having a cavity within a body sized to hold one or more smart keys, an EMR-shielding layer lining the cavity, and a first piece of a touch fastener incorporated into a second face of the body. A second piece of the smart-key holder includes a second piece of the touch fastener. A method is also disclosed including adhering a second face of the second piece of the smart-key holder to an object's surface leaving a first face of the second piece having the second piece of the touch fastener exposed. The method also includes fastening the first and second pieces of the smart-key holder together by way of complementary touch-fastener features, thereby attaching the first piece to the object's surface shielding the one or more smart keys from at least radiofrequency communications in place on the object's surface.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 19, 2019Publication date: June 25, 2020Applicant: LUCKY LINE PRODUCTS, INC.Inventors: William Fleming, Paul Northeimer

Patent number: 10583305Abstract: A method and associated apparatus (12) detects the presence and quality of chest compressions during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) by analyzing existing signals in automated external defibrillator (AED) devices without using a stand-alone CPR meter. The method includes analyzing both a thoracic impedance signal and a common-mode current signal, each of which can be measured with standard AED pads (18). The method applies criteria to the measured signals, the criteria being used to select which of the measured signals to use for providing CPR chest compression detections.Type: GrantFiled: May 23, 2016Date of Patent: March 10, 2020Assignee: KONINKLIJKE PHILIPS N.V.Inventors: Chenguang Liu, James Knox Russell, Dawn Blilie Jorgenson, Haris Duric, Stacy Earl Gehman, Christopher William Fleming

Patent number: 9944434Abstract: Techniques of transporting bath sponges involve holding a used bath sponge in a case that will carry and compress the used bath sponge. Such a case separates the soiled water and debris that is drained from the used bath sponge. The case is designed to facilitate the drainage of water and debris that have accumulated in the bath sponge after it is used. The action of compression of a bath sponge within this case will also help to maintain the original shape of the bath sponge. This case will keep all water and debris that has collected by the action of compression of the bath sponge contained in the lower sections of the case. In addition, when this case is stored in an upright position, the water and debris will not be able to flow back into the top section where the sponge is being stored.Type: GrantFiled: May 19, 2015Date of Patent: April 17, 2018Assignee: FAMILY INNOVATORS B&F, LLCInventors: Cynthia Ann Beauregard, Edward Joseph Beauregard, Craig Edward Beauregard, Bethany Marie Fleming, James William Fleming
