Decision Support Tool for Prevention of Failure to Rescue Events
TS-064718 — A clinical decision support tool for minimizing failure to rescue events at hospitals.
Failure to rescue (FTR) is a serious issue in patient safety and healthcare quality for hospitalized patients. The term implies that rescue is possible, and death is, therefore, a failure. On any given day across the country, two-thirds of deaths in hospitals could be judged as preventable. In 2005,…

Multimeric Notch ligands based on IgM-like fusion molecular structures for activation of ligand-specific Notch signaling
TS-064248 —
The Notch signaling pathway is important in immune cell differentiation and maturation. As a result, it has been shown that Notch receptor signaling can promote or suppress adaptive immune responses depending on the particular ligands and receptors involved. A set of native protein-inspired biolog…

Improved Dressing Design for Insertion Sheaths with Side Ports
TS-044969 — Dressing designed and tailored exclusively for insertion sheaths with side ports, used frequently for pulmonary artery catheters (PACs or Swan-Ganz catheters) among other intravascular devices in the hospital.
Central-line associated blood stream infections (CLABSIs) are a life-threatening and extremely costly problem in hospitals around the world. When patients in the hospital have indwelling catheters such as pulmonary artery catheters, they are at an increased risk of developing infections. Occlusive…

Six Degrees-of-Freedom Quality Assurance Phantom for Radiation Therapy Linear Accelerators
TS-037968 — The medical physics group in the Department of Radiation Oncology has devised a 6DoF phantom that is the first of its kind to fully integrate multiple routine QA tests specifically for a six degrees-of-freedom linac table.
6DoF treatment tables allow for 2 additional degrees (pitch and roll) compared to traditional 4DoF (vertical, lateral, longitudinal, and yaw) when correcting for patient setup during image-guidance prior to treatment delivery. These tables allow for more accurate patient treatments and could poten…
