Electronic medical records system with active clinical guidelines and patient data

An active guidelines capability or component is linked to a computerized patient record system to integrate the use of clinical guidelines in the workflow of clinicians treating patients. Many healthcare entities maintain sets of clinical guidelines describing recommended treatment or analysis options for patients displaying sets of symptoms or for whom certain diagnoses have been made. The active guidelines feature adds an active guidelines tag to such clinical guidelines so that when the clinician accesses the clinical guidelines and wishes to follow the recommendation, the clinician merely has to click on a hypertext created from the tag which then transmits action orders, also contained in the tag, to be transmitted to the computerized patient record system for implementation. Patient data associated with the recommendations, such as relevant test or lab results, interaction or allergy information, or other current treatments, is also identified and displayed.

Method and apparatus for fuzzy logic control enhancing advanced process control performance

An apparatus and method for enhancing advanced process control (APC) performance based on fuzzy logic control (FLC) concept and methodology is described. The method and apparatus provide a systematic way to characterize / assess process operations (encompassing the manufacturing process, laboratory measurement systems, and control practices / results) automatically and then determine the best APC model update and feedback control strategies dynamically to cope with various control problems commonly observed in the polymer industry. Since the method is able to reach a single definite control output signal based upon vague, ambiguous, or imprecise input information, control issues that are difficult to quantify or model mathematically can now be addressed effectively and included as part of the APC control strategy. With the method, polymer manufactures can better use their existing off-line laboratory results for on-line APC controllers without resorting to costly on-line property measurements or inferential sensors.

Cross rhombic motion estimation searching method

The invention relates to a novel cross-diamond searching method. Firstly, a crosslet mode is adopted for pre-search to find a minimum block-matching distortion (MBD) point, the MBD is taken as a center to construct a large cross searching mode to find the MBD; secondly, the MBD of the large cross mode is taken as the center to start the diamond search that a large diamond is searched first, a small diamond mode is adopted for search if the MBD is positioned at the center, and the found MBD point is the final block-matching distortion point; and if not, the large diamond search is continued. A cross-diamond also adopts the halfway stopping technique, and the speed for searching stationary blocks and half stationary blocks is improved obviously; and the modified partial distortion criterion greatly reduces the computational complexity without influencing the distortion factor. The laboratory result shows that the novel cross-diamond searching method respectively saves 41 percent and 16 percent of searching points compared with the diamond searching method and the cross-diamond searching method under the circumstances that the signal-to-noise ratio is less reduced or even is not reduced; compared with other prevalent block-matching motion estimation methods, the novel cross-diamond searching method has higher searching speed and less distortion degree.

Parallel Processing Fluidic Method and Apparatus for Automated Rapid Immunohistochemistry

A sample processing system that may be configured to achieve parallel or coincidental sample processing such as histochemical processing may involve a plurality of samples arranged for coincidental movement perhaps by use of angular microscopic slide movements to cause processing activity that may include repeated elimination and reapplication of a fluidic substance perhaps through the action of capillary motion in order to refresh a microenvironment adjacent to a sample such as a biopsy or other such sample. Snap in antibody and other substances may be included to ease operator actions and to permit location specific substance applications perhaps by including single container multiple chamber multiple fluidic substance magazines, linearly disposed multiple substance source, and primary antibody cartridges. Through refreshing of a microenvironment, depletion of the microenvironment is avoided and the time necessary for slide processing may be dramatically shortened from a more common 60 to 120 minutes to perhaps less than 15 minutes so as to permit use of such a system in an intraoperative or surgical environment such as recommended by the College of American Pathologists intraoperative guidelines or the like. Patients may thus avoid a need to be subjected to an additional surgical procedure when lab results become available to see if tumors or the like were fully removed in a prior procedure.
