Abstract: A method for substantially assuring the examination of a set of data elements by a first user with a messaging device, the set of data elements further comprising a metadata portion. The method further includes determining a set of data elements, each data element of the set of data elements further comprising a state. The method also includes creating a first set of rules for monitoring a change to the state, creating a second of rules for transforming the set of data elements from a first representation to a second representation, based in part on the metadata, and creating a third set of rules for optimizing the delivery of a notification to the first user, based in part on the first set of rules, the notification further comprising a link to the second representation. The method further includes sending the notification to the first user based in part on the third set of rules. And, if the first user does not redeem the second representation, the method includes sending the notification to a second user.

Abstract: A portable gas fractionalization apparatus that provides oxygen rich air to patients is provided. The apparatus is compact, lightweight, and low-noise. The components are assembled in a housing that is divided into two compartments. One compartment is maintained at a lower temperature than the other compartment. The lower temperature compartment is configured for mounting components that can be damaged by heat. The higher temperature compartment is configured for mounting heat generating components. An air stream is directed to flow from an ambient air inlet to an air outlet constantly so that there is always a fresh source of cooling air. The apparatus utilizes a PSA unit to produce an oxygen enriched product. The PSA unit incorporates a novel single ended column design in which all flow paths and valves can be co-located on a single integrated manifold. The apparatus also can be used in conjunction with a satellite conserver and a mobility cart.

Abstract: The invention is a method to improve in-home care for patients who require supplemental oxygen. Built around an intelligent portable oxygen concentrator which can acquire and store patient data and make the data available over the internet, the method allows a physician to access the data over the internet in sufficient detail to justify billing Medicare or other insurance providers, thus incentivising the physician to monitor the patient more often. The data system provider receives a fee for data access thus making the process profitable enough to be sustainable.

Abstract: A method of optimizing the delivery of a set of data elements to a device, the set of data elements further comprising a metadata portion. The method further includes determining a source of each element of the set of data elements, and creating a set of rules for transforming the set of data elements from a first representation to a second representation, based in part on the metadata. The method further includes transferring the set of data elements from the source to a first computer, transforming the set of data elements, based in part on the set of rules, and delivering the second representation to the device. Thereafter, the method includes monitoring the source for a change to the set of data elements. And, if required, the method further includes transferring the change from the source to the first computer.

Abstract: A gas fractionalization apparatus and methods for providing oxygen rich air to patients are disclosed. The apparatus comprises a variable output compressor, a PSA unit, a control system, and one or more pressure sensing devices. Pressure of the oxygen rich gas is maintained within a selected window by adjusting the output of the compressor in response to changes in the pressure of the oxygen rich gas. Methods of feedback control are further provided for calibration of the compressor under factory and in-service conditions, as well as under high-altitude conditions. Methods for providing diagnostic estimates and alarms of time to service are further provided.

Abstract: A system for delivering therapeutic breathing gas to patients is provided to deliver a variable bolus volume in response to the patient's breathing pattern. The system includes a gas source, a conserver between the gas source and the patient, a sensor which detects breaths by the patient and a controller which receives signals from the sensor and triggers delivery of gas boluses in accordance with predefined triggering parameters, with the controller determining the time elapsed since the last bolus was triggered and altering the triggering parameters as a function of the elapsed time.
