20080234558 | METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR PERFORMING A CLINICAL ASSESSMENT - The invention provides method and systems for performing clinical assessment of a patient that includes determining of a base clinical assessment for the patient by generating information on a clinical rating scale. At least one objective signal is recorded, and each objective signal involves an indicator corresponding to the state of the patient or the state of the patient's environment. Each objective signal is analyzed for generating a corresponding rating on the clinical rating scale. The clinical assessment of the patient may be provided by combining the information from the base clinical assessment with the information generated from analysis of each objective signal. In an embodiment, the clinical assessment may be based exclusively on information generated by analysis of each objective signal. The methods for performing clinical assessment of a patient may also be provided as computer program products having computer readable instructions embodied therein. | 09-25-2008 |
20140214895 | SYSTEMS AND METHOD FOR THE PRIVACY-MAINTAINING STRATEGIC INTEGRATION OF PUBLIC AND MULTI-USER PERSONAL ELECTRONIC DATA AND HISTORY - In one embodiment, a method of transmitting a directed query from a client device that stores private data elements includes determining relationships between elements of the private data, where each of the relationships associates two or more elements of the private data. The method may further include receiving a query related to a target element of the private data, where the query requests data related to the element that is not present in the private data. The method may further include storing the query in electronic memory. The method may further include determining a recipient for the query based on the relationships associated with the target element of the query. The method may further include electronically transmitting the query to the recipient. | 07-31-2014 |

20110115498 | Detection and Mitigation of Particle Contaminants in MEMS Devices - Detecting and/or mitigating the presence of particle contaminants in a MEMS device involves including MEMS structures that in normal operation are robust against the presence of particles but which can be made sensitive to that presence during a test mode prior to use, e.g., by switching the impedance of sensitive structures between an exceptionally sensitive condition during test and a normal sensitivity during operation; surrounding sensitive nodes with guard elements that are at the same potential as those nodes during operation, thereby offering protection against bridging particles, but are at a very different potential during test and reveal the particles by their resulting leakage currents; extending the sensitive nodes to interdigitate with or otherwise extend adjacent to the guard structures, which neither contribute to nor detract from the device operation but cover otherwise open areas with detection means during test; and/or converting benign areas in which particles might become trapped undetectably by electric fields during test to field-free regions by extending otherwise non-functional conductive layers so that the particles can then be moved into detection locations by providing some mechanical disturbance. | 05-19-2011 |
