Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to cell processing techniques. By way of example, a cell processing system may include a plurality of tracking devices coupled to a respective plurality of sample processing containers and storing sample identification information for a patient sample for use with sample processing devices configured to process the patient sample according to workflow steps of a processing protocol. A plurality of readers are configured to receive signals from the plurality of tracking devices. A controller may be coupled to the plurality of readers and configured to determine if the patient sample is processed according to the processing protocol based at least in part on the signals from the plurality of tracking devices.
Abstract:
Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture are disclosed to facilitate proximity detection and location tracking. An example method includes receiving messages collected by a badge in an environment, the messages including signal strength and a timestamp. The example method also includes assigning a location in the environment to the badge based on a first subset of the messages. The example method also includes identifying an asset in a second subset of the messages. The example method also includes updating a current location associated with the asset based on a relative proximity of the asset to the badge, wherein the current location corresponds to a first time and the updated location corresponds to a second time, and wherein a change in location between the current location and the updated location indicates movement of the asset in the environment.
Abstract:
Certain examples provide systems and methods to monitor and control hospital operational systems based on occupancy data and medical orders. An example healthcare workflow management and reasoning system includes a workflow engine including a first particularly programmed processor to monitor one or more medical orders from one or more hospital information systems to identify a condition indicating that a first patient in a first room is ready for a clinical activity such as discharge. The example healthcare workflow management and reasoning system includes a sensing component including a second processor to gather occupancy data regarding the first patient in the first room and transmit the occupancy data to the workflow engine. The example workflow engine controls one or more hospital operational systems to trigger cleaning of the first room, lighting settings for the first room, and transportation of a second patient to the first room based on occupancy data from the sensing component.
Abstract:
A sensor calibration system includes a plurality of sensors and a user interface configured to receive user-provided locations of at least two sensors of the plurality of sensors. The sensor calibration system further includes a motorized apparatus including a drive system, at least one detector, and a localization system. The sensor calibration system further includes a controller communicatively coupled to the user interface and the motorized apparatus. The controller is configured to determine a whether each of at least two sensors is a key sensor based on the user-provided locations. The controller is configured to determine a path for the motorized apparatus based on the user-provided locations. The controller is further configured to determine a position of each sensor based on the location of the motorized apparatus when each sensor is detected by the at least one detector. The controller is further configured to relate the location of the motorized apparatus and the position of each sensor to a common origin.
