Distributive Processing Simulation Method And System For Training Healthcare Teams

US Patent:
6739877, May 25, 2004
Filed:
Mar 6, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/800104
Inventors:
Bradford E. Bailey - Louisville KY
Bill B. Clark - Castle Rock CO
Chen Yuanming - Englewood CO
Qiang Gao - Englewood CO
Dave Wilson - Castle Rock CO
William E. Younkes - Greenwood Village CO
Assignee:
Medical Simulation Corporation - Denver CO
International Classification:
G09B 2328
US Classification:
434262, 434219
Abstract:
A simulation method and system based on a distributive processing model is used for training and educating healthcare teams. The system allows team members to be at the training facility or located remotely and connected via data communication links. The system allows multiple participants for individual team member roles at various connected simulation workstations. If simulation participants cannot man all the team roles, the system can provide virtual team members in their stead. The simulation server computer delivers to each workstation the particular programs and outputs required for any given simulation exercise.

Computer Aided Interactive Medical Management Information And Control System And Method

US Patent:
2006002, Feb 2, 2006
Filed:
Jul 28, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/901364
Inventors:
William Younkes - Greenwood Village CO, US
Scott Barnes - Thornville OH, US
Sandra Schreiber - Castle Rock CO, US
Dave Wilson - Castle Rock CO, US
International Classification:
G06Q 10/00, G06G 7/48
US Classification:
705002000, 703011000
Abstract:
A computer aided interactive medical management information and control system and method includes one or more devices and a computing platform and associated software that assists the health care provider in performing a treatment on a patient. Output information of equipment relevant to performing the treatment is integrated with reference databases of best demonstrated practices, similar cases, industry guidelines, and procedure and equipment trouble shooting. The present invention can also serve as a remote control for networked medical equipment and provide data for the patient record. The health care provider is able to immediately access emergency procedures and/or be voice and/or video linked to other institutions and personnel for consultation while performing the treatment. Diagnostic systems information may be combined with current patient information and analyzed to provide real time guidance and alerts for adverse events, and provide references for managing critical stages of the treatment.

Medical Simulation System And Method

US Patent:
7455523, Nov 25, 2008
Filed:
Apr 15, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/107025
Inventors:
Daniel Lee Hendrickson - Golden CO, US
Raymond Lopez - Denver CO, US
William Younkes - Greenwood Village CO, US
Assignee:
Medical Simulation Corporation - Denver CO
International Classification:
G09B 23/28
US Classification:
434262, 434272
Abstract:
A portable medical simulation system and method employs an artificial patient with a built-in haptic interface device, with up to four carriages for engaging different diameter catheters. A catheter stabilizer between each carriage expands and contracts in an accordion fashion as the carriages move in relation to each other, preventing the catheter from bending and bowing. A contrast display visual effect derived from a particle emitter software tool simulates the release of radiopaque dye within a simulated vasculature system for display on a monitor. A computer software based system is used for generating haptic effects on the catheter through control signals passed to each of the carriage motors controlling translation movement of the catheter and magnetic particle brakes controlling rotational movement of the catheter.

Trainee-As-Mentor Education And Training System And Method

US Patent:
2008016, Jul 3, 2008
Filed:
Dec 28, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/617049
Inventors:
William Younkes - Greenwood Village CO, US
Dave E. Wilson - Castle Rock CO, US
Assignee:
MEDICAL SIMULATION CORPORATION - Denver CO
International Classification:
G09B 19/00
US Classification:
434219
Abstract:
An education and training system and method where a trainee plays the role of a mentor to a simulated colleague who is performing a simulated procedure. Various views of the simulated colleague are presented on one or more monitors so that the trainee-as-mentor can observe the actions taken by the simulated colleague. The views will often be focused upon the hands of the simulated colleague. The trainee-as-mentor must observe the simulated colleague and provide instructions or commands to the simulated colleague in order to correct inappropriate actions. The trainee-as-mentor is evaluated on his or her ability to discern mistakes, miscues, poor technique, out of order steps, etc., and provide instructions to correct the mistake and prevent undesired outcomes.

Syringe Infusion Device

US Patent:
5709663, Jan 20, 1998
Filed:
Feb 6, 1996
Appl. No.:
8/595881
Inventors:
William E. Younkes - Greenwood Village CO
International Classification:
A61M 3700
US Classification:
604154
Abstract:
A device for transferring liquid between the body of a patient and a syringe includes a syringe barrel defining a bore, a plunger that may slide through the bore to force liquid into or out of the bore, and a pump capable of sliding the plunger. The pump housing positively connects to the bore by sliding a protrusion formed on the exterior of the pump housing into an indentation formed within the interior surface of the bore.
