20110301965 | DYNAMICALLY PREDICTING PATIENT INFLUX INTO AN EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT - Current patients in an emergency department of a hospital are described according to their quantity, their triage classification levels, and their wait times to calculate a current patient backlog. A sum of weight-adjusted triage classification levels of all of the current patients is calculated. Current patient arrival rates in the emergency department are tracked to calculate a current change in patient arrival rates, which are compared with historical changes in patient arrival rates. A size of an imminent influx of arriving patients into the emergency department is then predicted based on the current patient backlog, the sum of weight-adjusted triage classification levels of patients currently in the emergency department, and the current change in patient arrival rates. | 12-08-2011 |
20110307264 | DYNAMICALLY ADJUSTING TRIAGE CLASSIFICATION LEVELS - An initial triage level classification for a latest patient to arrive at an emergency department (ED) is received. Availability levels of resources needed to treat the latest patient are electronically collected, along with triage level classifications for all other patients currently in the ED. The initial triage level classification of the latest patient is adjusted upward or downward based on the availability levels of resources needed to treat the latest patient and based on the triage level classifications for the patients in the ED. The triage level classifications for all patients currently in the ED are summed up. If a sum of all triage level classifications exceeds a first predetermined threshold, other resources are reallocated in order to provide the resources needed to treat the latest patient to arrive at the ED. If the sum of all triage level classifications exceeds a second predetermined threshold, then a disaster plan is implemented. | 12-15-2011 |

20090236195 | Garment compression system for travel and storage - A garment compression system for travel and storage which effectively increases the useable volume in luggage, storage closets and storage areas is disclosed. The system consists of two cooperating substantially flat plate members, at least two lengths of belting surrounding the flat plate members for use in generating compressive forces and suitable buckles and fittings to retain the system in the compressed state. Buckles of sufficient strength located on the belting are capable of holding tension forces generated in the compression process, to withstand the force generated by the compression of the items between the cooperating flat plate members. The belting has loose ends for ease of removal of the top plate member to facilitate placing items to be compressed between the top and bottom plate members. Each of the plate members has a cooperating notch suitably placed to guide the belting during the compression operation. The end of the belting is manually pulled by the user with a tensile force that causes the top and bottom plate members to move closer together. This moving of the plate members causes the articles between the two plate members to compress, thereby squeezing out the voids in the various fabrics between the plate members. | 09-24-2009 |
20100066020 | Method of playing ancient Pai-Gow dominoe game - A casino game or home recreational game played between a dealer with from one to seven players. In a casino the dealer is a paid employee, while in a home game any player can assume the role of dealer. The game is played with a set of 32 special dominoes or a set of 32 special standard size playing cards. The dealer will scramble the dominoes or cards face down on the table, then randomly stack eight (8) rows of four (4) dominoes or cards. Part of the game is determining who will get the first stack of dominoes or cards. Three dice are used for this purpose. The dice are scrambled when they settle down the dice are added together. The starting position is at the dealer and is counted counter clockwise. Therefore with the game capable of handling seven (7) players the dealer is number 1, 9, 17. The first stack of dominoie or cards is give to the position matching the sum of the dice. The players the arrange their dominoes or cards in such a fashion to get the four dominoes or cards into two sets of matching pairs or failing to have any matching pairs try to come as close as possible to the sum of nine (9) in each set of two. Once every player has set their dominoes or cards the dealer will open his hand and like the players look for pairs. Failing to have any pairs he will them try to make both hands as close to nine as possible. Once all hands are exposed the dealer must beat the player on both of their hands to collect the wager, additionally the player must beat the dealer both hands to win the hand. All split hands where either the dealer or player wins one part and looses the second part is called a push and the hand is finished. | 03-18-2010 |
