Publication number: 20160132652Abstract: Systems and methods for controlling the spread of a communicable disease are provided. A combination of physiological data and location data is used to estimate the likelihood that an individual is ill. Once an individual is determined to be ill, the individual's location history may be examined and individuals who were exposed to the individual identified. By tracking individuals who may be ill or who have reported themselves to be ill, and by identifying individuals with a possible exposure to those who may be ill, potential carriers of illness can be quarantined and their access to areas where communicable diseases pose a high risk limited.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 11, 2014Publication date: May 12, 2016Inventors: Richard Chapman Bates, Bryant Luk, Robert He, Christopher Diebold O'Toole, Jennifer Brenner, Ananya Das, Jason Ziaja, Yu Tang

Publication number: 20160132653Abstract: Embodiments provide a method, system and non-transitory computer medium for processing clinical data. In particular, the method comprises configuring at least one processor and at least one memory including computer program instructions to perform the steps of: receiving an identity of a patient; conducting a patient consultation session using a point of care computing device, the patient consultation session comprising: transmitting the identity of the patient to a database adapted to store clinical data, the clinical data comprising at least data corresponding to a clinical intervention program; receiving first data relating to said clinical intervention program for the patient from the database; outputting the first data to a display of the point of care computing device; and determining second data indicative of an action taken in response to the outputting of the data, wherein the second data is for transmission to the database.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 6, 2015Publication date: May 12, 2016Inventor: Sanket BARALAY

Publication number: 20160132654Abstract: A method of building classifiers for neurological assessment is described. The method comprises the steps of extracting quantitative features from a plurality of clinical features, and selecting a subset of features from the extracted pool of features to construct binary classifiers. A device for performing point-of-care neurological assessment using clinical features is also described.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 14, 2016Publication date: May 12, 2016Inventors: Neil Rothman, Arnaud Jacquin, Samanwoy Ghosh Dastidar, Thomas Radman, Jonathan Miller, William Koppes, Leslie Prichep

Publication number: 20160132655Abstract: A method is provided that includes processing biological data using a biological simulation model, including calculating a set of measurements called indexes that measure interrelationships between hormones and/or blood test data; and analyzing from the indexes, the endocrine system by axis and in sequence along an adaptation process. The method includes running a selection algorithm from the indexes to identify biological dysfunctions across the endocrine system and the autonomous nervous system, and recommending corrective actions based on the identified biological dysfunctions. The method includes validating potential organism dysfunctions of the patient through the identified biological dysfunctions, consolidating diagnostic actions including the recommended corrective actions into a single diagnostic, and receiving selection of diagnostic actions therefrom.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 29, 2015Publication date: May 12, 2016Inventor: Jean-Claude Lapraz

Publication number: 20160132656Abstract: A method for modelling the direction of incident abdominal pressures through a strait and directed towards the female pelvic cavity and for modelling the direction of pressures reflected by the pelvic paraboloid of an individual so as to allow correlating with occurrence of prolapses and incontinence in the said individual. The method includes compiling morphological data of a plane of a pelvic cavity strait by 3D cube MRI; modelling a center of gravity CG1 of the strait at a level at which the incident pressure vector penetrates in the true pelvis; modelling by 3D cube MRI a plane of a pelvic paraboloid, as well as an axis of the paraboloid; determining a CG2 reflection point of the incident vector on the plane; and determining the orientation of a reflected pressure vector.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 27, 2015Publication date: May 12, 2016Inventor: Edgard Cornier

Publication number: 20160132657Abstract: A system for noninvasively determining at least one physiological characteristic of a patient may include at least one computer system configured to, using a three-dimensional surface mesh model created using patient-specific imaging data, create a three-dimensional combined surface and volume mesh model, including at least a first model portion that has a different spatial resolution than at least a second model portion. The computer system may be further configured to input the three-dimensional surface and volume mesh model into a fluid simulation system and determine a measurement of the physiological characteristic, using the fluid simulation system.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 5, 2016Publication date: May 12, 2016Inventors: Jin KIM, Michael SINGER

Publication number: 20160132658Abstract: The present invention relates to novel technology suitable for reducing errors introduced into the process of medication administration. In particular, the present invention provides an instrument for on demand printing of patient database information directly to medication packaging, e.g., multi-compartment packaging, through a patient database interfacing control unit (DICU), which is capable of generating a dose label for a multi-compartment package, wherein each compartment label of the complete package label is independently compliant to state guidance documents incorporating the requirements of the five rights for split package administration. Accordingly, the present invention provides multi-compartment dosage cards engineered for safer split package administration, and systems to produce such cards.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 9, 2015Publication date: May 12, 2016Inventor: Bhuren Patel
