20100005693	Linen identification tags and system - A Linen Identification Tag System for temporarily identifying linens can be used with sheets, towels, napkins, etc. Each linen identification tag comprises an attachment element and an identification element. The attachment element can be any appropriate type of mechanical or magnetic clip, and the identification element can be almost anything. It can hang from the clip or be adhered thereto. It can be soft as an embroidered applique or hard as a metal token. The system can be used by families or other groups traveling on vacation or can be used by clubs, companies, hotels, or others. The sets of Linen ID Tags can share a common theme. Using this identification system ensures that the same person uses the same linens over and over again so that germs are not shared between persons.	01-14-2010

20110263991	METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR CONTROL OF NON-INVASIVE PARAMETER MEASUREMENTS - Improved methods and apparatus for non-invasively assessing one or more parameters associated with fluidic systems such as the circulatory system of a living organism, when such parameters are potentially affected by other concurrent events. In one exemplary embodiment, apparatus and methods for compensating for occlusive events (e.g., pressure cuff inflation) occurring ipsilateral to the location of parameter measurement are disclosed. Upon passive detection of signal degradation resulting from the event, the apparatus selectively enters a “wait state” wherein further processing of the hemodynamic data is suspended until the degrading event subsides. This behavior mitigates any adverse effects the event might have on the accuracy of the representation of the measured hemodynamic parameter generated by the system. In another exemplary embodiment, the measured data is analyzed in order to classify the type of event (e.g., occlusive or other), such classification allowing the system to appropriately tailor its response to the event.	10-27-2011
