20120290319 | AUTOMATIC CODING OF PATIENT OUTCOMES - Systems and methods can mine structured clinical event data in an electronic health record (EHR) system to determine patient outcomes. Mining the structured clinical event data instead of or in addition to mining discharge summaries can increase the accuracy of patient outcome identification.

20110045847 | Digital content distribution system for delivering location specific content to an ad hoc group of mobile subscribers - A digital content distribution system and method are disclosed for delivering location specific content to an ad hoc group of mobile subscribers and method of delivering subscriber-requested, location-based content directly to a mobile communication device, such as a cell phone or personal digital assistant (PDA) or other mobile communication device. The system consists of a downloadable application that runs on the subscribers mobile communication devices and communicates with the server-based content composer system. The content composer system manages outgoing content based upon the geographic location reported by the mobile communication device application and the demographic and preference data stored in a subscriber database. Using available messaging technology, such as Short Message Service (SMS) and Multimedia Messaging Service (MMS) messaging, relevant sponsored content, mobile emergency alerts, and the ability to facilitate 2-way text or voice based services utilizing Global Positioning System (GPS) mapping is provided to an ad hoc group of subscribers in designated geographic locations. In order to optimize the utility for deaf and hard of hearing subscribers, the mobile communication device may be placed in a low power sleep or hibernate mode instead of a no power mode when the device is turned off. In a hibernate mode, in response to emergency content, the mobile communication device will wake up to an alert even when it is hibernating. Moreover, the alerts take over the portable device no matter what other tasks are being executed. In accordance with another important aspect of the invention, in response to emergency content, the system will cause the mobile communication device to vibrate even if the mobile communication device has been configured with the vibrate feature turned off. | 02-24-2011 |

The content composer system manages outgoing content based upon the geographic location reported by a mobile communication device application and the demographic and preference data stored in a subscriber database. Emergency alerts are sent only to subscribers in a area covered by the alert. The emergency alerts are executed on the mobile communication device even though the mobile communication device is in a low power sleep or hibernate mode. Moreover, the emergency alerts take over the mobile communications device no matter what other tasks are being executed when the emergency alert is received. | 11-22-2012 |

20150315710 | CLADDING APPARATUS AND METHOD - The inventions disclosed by this application are for a cladding apparatus, a cladding head, and a method of cladding a relatively planar solid object such as a boiler waterwall. Cladding of non-horizontal surfaces is complicated by the effects of gravity as melted clad material trends to runoff the surface before the cladding material bonds to the appropriate location. The disclosed inventions overcome these limitations by controlling the relative angle of application by either rotating the workpiece or the cladding head through a pre-programmed sequence. Also presented in a compact design for a laser cladding head that facilitates such cladding by minimizing movement of the laser fiber and improves cladding speed over irregular shaped objects. | 11-05-2015 |
