Activity monitoring device with assessment of exercise intensity

Aspects relate to a portable device that may be used to identify a critical intensity and an anaerobic work capacity of an individual. The device may utilize muscle oxygen sensor data, speed data, or power data. The device may utilize data from multiple exercise sessions, or may utilize data from a single exercise session. The device may additionally estimate a critical intensity from a previous race time input from a user.

MEASURING PHYSIOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS

A data processing system comprising a processing device configured to collect sets of sensed data representing motion characteristics of a user's gait at a first time and at a second time subsequent to the first time, to process each set of sensed data to form a respective information set dependent on the user's gait at the first and second times, and to compare the first information set with one of (i) the second information set and (ii) a predetermined reference data set in accordance with a predetermined algorithm to identify a condition or change in condition of the user.

The following relates generally to measuring a patients O.sub.2 level with a mote implanted in the patient's tissue. For example, a mote implanted in a patients tissue may be powered by ultrasound (US) signals generated by an ultrasound interrogator that is external to the patient. Components on the mote may be duty cycled off to advantageously decrease power consumption. A luminescence sensor on the mote may be used to measure the O.sub.2 level, and the luminescence sensor may be optically isolated from the patients tissue by an opaque material such as black silicon.

Assessing sepsis risk based on dwell times of invasive devices

Various methods, systems, and devices relate to identifying a sepsis risk of an individual based on a dwell time of an invasive device in the individual. An example method includes receiving, from multiple transceivers, location data indicating first signals transmitted between the multiple transceivers and a tag attached to the invasive device. A location of the invasive device can be identified based on the location data. The dwell time can be determined based on the location. In certain examples, a second signal indicating the sepsis risk can be generated.
