Methods for using the systems to administer drugs and monitor and control fluid pressures in various biological systems are also disclosed.
Patent CA-2651087-A1 (CA)
Title: Vehicle cooling system with directed flows
Inventor: CLOUGH MALCOLM J
IPC: F01P7/14
Filed: 2007-05-08
Abstract: A cooling system for internal combustion engines provides directed flows of heated or cooled coolant to various engine components and/or accessories as needed. By providing directed flows, the overall coolant flow volume is reduced from that of conventional cooling systems, allowing for a smaller capacity water pump to be employed which results in a net energy savings for the engine. Further, by reducing the overall coolant flow volume, the hoses and/or galleries required for the directed flows are reduced from those of conventional cooling systems, providing a cost savings and a weight savings. Finally, by preferably employing an impellor type water pump, the expense of an electric water pump and its associated control circuitry can be avoided. The direct flows are established by a multifunction valve which , in a preferred implementation, comprises a two-plate valve wherein each plate is operated by a wax motor.

Title: Method and system for tracking and managing animal health and food quality
Inventor: PRATT WILLIAM C
IPC: G06Q50/02
Filed: 2005-01-19
Abstract: Embodiments of a method and system are described for tracing, for example, an animal's location history. These embodiments collect information such as a universal identifier, which uniquely identifies an animal and premise identifiers, which indicate a location or locations occupied by an animal. This collected data is transmitted to a secure data trustee that protects and screens the data so that confidential information is not released publicly. For example, when a public health issue arises, such as mad cow disease, the data trustee generates a traceback report indicating which animals have commingled with the infected animal. Based on the traceback report, other sick or potentially sick animals can be treated, quarantined, or slaughtered. As another example, the disclosed embodiments of the method and system facilitate commercial transactions by providing trace information that validates, for example, the animal health and food quality.

IPC: G16H20/10
Filed: 2009-06-30
Abstract: Systems and methods for processing drug sample prescription transactions that determine whether a drug to be prescribed is eligible for sampling and/or whether the patient is eligible for sampling that drug. A prescription transaction for that drug is created and transmitted to a switch provider and is then routed to a pharmacy for prescription fulfillment.  Once the prescription has been filled a message may be sent to the prescribing clinician.  Moreover, the pharmacy may generate a prescription claim to be adjudicated by a claim processor where the claim specifies voucher and/or coupon information associated with the drug to be sampled that is taken into consideration either prior to or during claim adjudication. A database containing patient and/or drug information may be used to track a patients' receipt of drug samples as well as used for analyzing and/or reporting on the use of the drug sampling prescription based system.
