摘要： An integrated weight loss system generally comprises an electronic stimulation device in communication through the Internet with a host server. The electronic stimulation device serves to stimulate reduction of fat cells as a key part of a weight loss protocol. The protocol takes advantage of the Internet to combine new and previously available weight loss modalities in a manner designed to obtain greater weight loss success than likely through individual usage of the component modalities. Additionally, the integrated weight loss system and the protocol take advantage of the Internet to provide the user with a unique compliance monitoring scheme designed to promote as high as possible weight loss success.

摘要： A billing system for a service provider-client environment, which includes a service provider site, a first computer-based device disposed at the service provider site having billing software operably associated with the first computer-based device for enabling logging of client data and service provider data. The billing software prompts a service provider to select one of a logging and no logging of time for one of a matter and a call and can accrue an amount of time and associate the time with a client upon selection of the logging. The billing software also prompts a service provider to select one of a logging and no logging of print cost and postage cost in response to a printer job being initiated for one of a print document and an envelope document and associate the time with a client upon selection of the logging. The billing software manipulates the data corresponding to the amount of time, print cost and postage cost and said client data in a manner to produce a billing data file and accounts for crediting and debiting the billing data file. Additionally, billing software produces invoice indicia corresponding to billing data file. A printer is operably associated with said first computer-based device for printing an invoice having the corresponding billing data file and indicia thereon. A scanner is optionally operably associated with said first computer-based device for scanning the indicia from the invoice to enable the billing software to apply a credit to the billing data file. An interface device is optionally operably associated with said first computer-based device for providing a triggering event to software resident on said first computer-based device and for producing DTMF tones enabling said first computer-based device to automatically place telephone calls when prompted by said software.

摘要： An automated screening tool for the exclusion of deep venous thrombosis generally comprises a sensor array for gathering thermal data from the lower limbs of a patient suspected of DVT; a processor for automated analysis of the gathered data; and a display device for reporting the exclusion or non-exclusion of DVT. In the preferred embodiment of the present invention, a microprocessor based system is utilized to control the gathering of thermal data and, thereafter, the reporting of the gathered data to the processor. According to the preferred method for use of the present invention, the gathered thermal data is utilized, alone or in combination with other indicators, as a factor for exclusion of DVT based upon an implemented algorithm. According to the preferred embodiment of the present invention, a neural network or genetic algorithm is implemented within the processor in order to make an entirely objective determination relative the presence of DVT. This feature makes the present invention particularly adapted to multiple risk factor analysis, wherein factors such as calf circumference; positive Homan sign; colorimetry reading of the limbs; recent surgery or trauma; history of DVT, phlebitic syndrome or venous insufficiency; or presently uncannulated veins may be considered along with thermographic data.
