An ambulatory medical device can detect a device condition and determine if the device condition satisfies a set of normal operating parameters. If the normal operating parameters are not satisfied, the ambulatory medical device can determine if the device condition stratifies a set of minimum operating parameters. If the minimum operating parameters are satisfied, the ambulatory medical device can maintain a delivery of therapy to a subject and generate an alert based on the device condition.

An apparatus and method involve leveraging unobtrusive sleep monitoring technologies, even consumer ones, to predict the phase of a viral infection and is usable for guiding patient treatment and tracking treatment effectiveness. An apparatus and method determine a phase of a viral infection based at least in part upon a data set that is input to an algorithm.

A method and apparatus for detecting a medical conflict, an electronic device, and a storage medium are provided. A specific implementation solution includes: acquiring a medical quality control requirement of a user, and converting the medical quality control requirement into structured data corresponding thereto; detecting, through a pre-established rule-based reasoning network, whether medical entities in the structured data meet detection conditions corresponding to a leaf node, with each field in the structured data as a medical entity; in response to the medical entities in the structured data meeting the detection conditions corresponding to the leaf node, determining that the medical quality control requirement hits the leaf node; and pushing medical conflict information corresponding to the leaf node to the user.

A waveguide apparatus includes a planar waveguide and at least one optical diffraction element (DOE) that provides a plurality of optical paths between an exterior and interior of the planar waveguide. A phase profile of the DOE may combine a linear diffraction grating with a circular lens, to shape a wave front and produce beams with desired focus. Waveguide apparati may be assembled to create multiple focal planes. The DOE may have a low diffraction efficiency, and planar waveguides may be transparent when viewed normally, allowing passage of light from an ambient environment (e.g., real world) useful in AR systems. Light may be returned for temporally sequentially passes through the planar waveguide. The DOE(s) may be fixed or may have dynamically adjustable characteristics. An optical coupler system may couple images to the waveguide apparatus from a projector, for instance a biaxially scanning cantilevered optical fiber tip.

A device and a method for evaluating what kind of accommodation measure should be taken to reach the reasonable accommodation are provided. This device stores accommodation measure evaluation data that associates an accommodation measure for a minority employee (a person with disabilities, an elderly person, a foreigner) with evaluation of the accommodation measure. When the accommodation measure to be provided for the minority employees is input, the evaluation of the accommodation measure to be provided is acquired based on the input accommodation measure and the accommodation measure evaluation data, and the evaluation is displayed on a display monitor or the like.

Systems and methods are disclosed herein for updating an application controlling an ambulatory medical device such that application updates can be identified, downloaded and installed without interrupting therapy provided by the ambulatory medical device to a subject. The ambulatory medical device may receive an indication that an update to an application executing on the ambulatory insulin pump is available, establish a communication connection to a host computing system configured to host the application update, and download the application update. The disclosed systems and methods can determine an execution time of an installation and install the downloaded application update without interrupting therapy provided by the ambulatory medical device to the subject.

A system and method are disclosed for effectuating a payment to a patient relating to the cost of pharmaceutical product between a discount payer, having a computing system including a processor, a memory, and an internet connection, and a patient. The method includes the steps of providing a discount manager, the discount manager having a computing system including a processor, a memory, and an internet connection, the discount manager facilitating the relationship between the discount payer and the patient; the system includes allowing all parties to align on, discuss, and debate who should receive a discount; the discount payer providing a payment, based on stakeholder alignment, to the patient for acquisition of the pharmaceutical product; and the patient receiving the payment, the payment received in the form of cash to the patient or as a credit to the discount manager for future use by the patient.
