| 20110028885 | METHOD OF PROVIDING CARE TO A PATIENT - The present invention is directed to a system and method for providing care to a patient, comprising a patient care device having a number of configuration databases stored in a memory in the device. Each configuration database preferably includes protocols, operating limits, rule sets and/or operating features that collectively define an operating environment, or personality, of the device. Selection of a specific configuration database preferably is based at least in part upon patient-specific information obtained from any location in a distributed hospital network. Examples of such patient-specific information include patient age or size, patient medical characteristics, a location of the patient or a location of the care device. In a preferred embodiment, programming a patient care device to deliver a drug to a patient entails activating a configuration database and scanning a machine-readable drug label identifying a particular protocol stored in the activated database. The selected protocol includes default parameters for delivering the drug, and the label optionally includes instructions for deviating from the default protocol. | 02-03-2011 |

| 20090281843 | CALENDAR SCHEDULING SYSTEMS - Calendar scheduling systems are described. In one embodiment, a client system receives an input, within a calendar application program, to schedule an event, the input specifying at least one of the event, a representation of a location for the event, or metadata of a physical facility at the location, and the client system transmits the input to a calendar server to determine an availability of at least one physical facility at the location and receives and presents data specifying the availability of at least one physical facility at the location. The client system may further cause an invitation to be sent to attendees of the event. Other systems and other methods are also described. | 11-12-2009 |

| 20080307323 | CALENDARING TECHNIQUES AND SYSTEMS - The calendaring techniques and systems described herein enable a user to more easily resolve conflicts for attendees to an event by visually indicating available time slots for all attendees in a calendar window or in a timeline window separate from the calendar window. The first available time slot may be automatically selected or the user may select an available slot to reschedule the event. In another aspect, inspector windows are displayed within a calendar window to show summary or details for an event. An inspector window can also be displayed when a change to an event is detected. In yet another aspect, calendars for multiple accounts accessible by a user are merged into a single calendar view. | 12-11-2008 |
