Patent CA-2651417-A1 (CA)
Inventor: FREY WILLIAM E
IPC: A61F7/12
Filed: 2007-05-03
Abstract: A disposable warmer cartridge is used to heat fluids to be infused to the patient to prevent hypothermia in the patient. The cartridge has in its chamber a pair of spaced in parallel electrodes that have substantially the same dimension. When RF power is fed to the electrodes, an alternating electric field is generated between the electrodes to directly heat the fluid that is in the chamber. The heating of the fluid is achieved in a substantially instantaneous manner by controlling the energization of the electrodes through the distributed impedance of the electric field between the electrodes. Heat is readily controlled by modulating the RF power fed to the electrodes. Feedback to control the temperature of the fluid in the cartridge may be provided by non-contact and direct contact sensor(s).

Patent CA-2659506-A1 (CA)
Inventor: DUBE RINO
IPC: C02F3/30
Filed: 2009-03-19
Abstract: A liquid effluent bio-filtration method by simultaneous nitrification and denitrification uses the addition of an oxygen source at a pre-determined flow rate and optionally the addition of a carbon source (such as whey) thus permitting the complete transformation of the nitrates (NO3) present in the effluent during treatment through a bio-filter.  The specific conditions of the operation promote simultaneous nitrification and denitrification including the controlled injection of a small quantity of air, the adjustment of the nitrogen content (NTK + NO3) and the carbon content thus substantially eliminating the liberation of undesirable nitrogen in the form of NO3 or NO2.

Title: Medical assessment support system and method
Inventor: ARMSTRONG JOHN M
IPC: G06Q10/00
Filed: 2007-08-22
Abstract: The invention is directed to a medical assessment support system. In one embodiment, a user inputs a query that identifies an adverse event that a patient has experienced and the ailments (diseases, disorders, symptoms, conditions etc.) that the patient has experienced. In response, the system causes one or more database searches to be performed to identify one or more possible causes of the adverse event for a patient with the identified ailments. In another embodiment, the user inputs a combination of one or more drugs that a patient has taken and one or more ailments that the patient has experienced. The system operates to determine if there is an adverse event associated with the specified combination and reports any such adverse event to the user. The system retains a copy of any such report for comparison to later searches so as to avoid reporting the same possible adverse event multiple times. The system conducts any such search on a predetermined schedule or can do so at the request of the user. In another embodiment, the system integrates adverse event-drug-ailment associations with electronic medical record (EMR) systems to identify, to health care providers or users, patients who may be potentially at risk for those adverse events.
