A system used to entrap clots in arteries, such as cerebral arteries, between the artery wall and an external surface of a stent to provide restoration of blood flow therethrough that includes a stent forming an annular wall that defines a set of openings, and an expansion member extendable through the stent to place a distal portion thereof distal to the stent. The stent is advanced into a clot disposed within a vessel and transitioned to an expanded configuration such that the annular wall engages the clot. The expansion member extends through the stent and is transitioned to an expanded state such that a diameter of the distal portion is greater than a diameter of a proximal portion thereof. The expanded distal portion is sized to fill a portion of the vessel to prevent clot fragments from flowing distal to the expansion member.

The present disclosure relates to force reading device. The products are multi-sensor, meaning they operate using two or more independent sensors, and communicate weight distribution and force data to the user in real time. The weight-lifter/user is notified by a visual aid via mobile app display and/or LCD screen and verbal feedback. Through real-time data feedback, the user is able to correct their form/balance as needed, in efforts to center their body weight and/or more evenly distribute their limbs. This in turn allows for the collection of data on how one may perform exercises and job tasks, and also offers a real-time solution for preventing injury and increasing exercise/job task functionality.

A flexible circuit package. The circuit package includes a termination point on a flexible base substrate. The termination point is connected with an interface by conductive material on the base substrate. The conductive material extends across the surface area of the base substrate in multiple individual connections, which are in communication with each other and separated by voids in the conductive material for mitigating communication failure between the termination point and the interface during or following flexion, stretching, compression or other deformation of the base substrate and the circuit package. The termination point may include an input module such as a sensor, switch or other input. The termination point may include an output module such as a light, vibrator or other output. The interface may include an output interface for receiving data or an input interface for sending a command or other signal.

A medical photometer includes a signal producing section that produces a first control signal to emit a first light having a first wavelength, a second control signal to emit a second light having a second wavelength, a third control signal to emit a third light having a third wavelength, and a fourth control signal to emit a fourth light having a fourth wavelength, a signal acquiring section that acquires a first to fourth intensity signals, a processor, and a memory that stores instructions. In the medical photometer, the first wavelength and the second wavelength are selected as two wavelengths at each of which an extinction coefficient of blood is a first value. The third wavelength and the fourth wavelength are selected as two wavelengths at each of which the extinction coefficient of the blood is a second value which is different from the first value.

Generally, abnormal pressures in the sinus cavity can have physiological effects due to stimulation or injury of various nerves that are in proximity to the sinus, including increased or decreased pressure on the nerves as well as extrusion of the nerves into the sinus cavities due to bony dehiscence. Methods and devices for alleviating disorders associated with the sinus cavities are described. Embodiments herein include diagnosing these disorders by occluding or restricting the sinus ostium and assessing the physiological effects caused by the occlusion/restriction and treating these disorders by navigating/directing a dilating device to the sinus ostium and dilating the sinus ostium. Other embodiments are directed to devices for maintaining the ostial opening.

The invention comprises a method and apparatus for sampling a common tissue volume and/or a common skin layer skin of a person as a part of noninvasive analyte property determination system, comprising the steps of: providing an analyzer, comprising at least three detectors at least partially embedded in a probe housing, the probe housing comprising a sample side surface, the detectors including a first and second range of detection zones of differing radial distances from a first illumination zone and second illumination zone, respectively coupled to separate sources; repetitively illuminating the illumination zones of the skin with photons in a range of 1200 to 2500 nm; and detecting portions of light from the sources with the at least three detectors, the detectors positioned on a common line with the sources.

Systems, methods, apparatus, and non-transitory computer readable media for measuring and analyzing galvanic skin response. Responses to stimuli including electromagnetic waves and mechanical waves, as well as substances exposed to electromagnetic waves and mechanical waves, are recorded and analyzed. Electromagnetic waves and mechanical waves are constructed based on biological outputs in one embodiment.

The present invention provides a method for monitoring the actual pressure exerted by the interior wall of a biological channel at different locations along the length of said biological channel. The method comprises: i) introducing into the lumen of the biological channel a device comprising an elongated tube and at least two expandable means located at a predetermined distance on said elongated tube; ii) inflating each of the expandable means to its contact pressure (Pc); and iii) measuring the internal pressure in each expandable means, wherein when said internal pressure is greater than Pc, the actual pressure exerted by the interior wall of the biological channel is equal to the difference between said internal pressure and Pc.

A system for monitoring a health status of a person remotely from a medical facility, includes a display device to be installed in the medical facility, a wireless sensor device attachable to a leg of the person to acquire measurement information on a state of the leg of the person, and a compute server in wireless communication with the sensor device to acquire the measurement information. The compute server is configured to determine a risk of an arterial disease and a venous disease of the leg based on the acquired measurement information, and output, to the display device, information on the determined risk of the arterial disease and the venous disease of the leg.

The present invention generally relates to blood pressure monitoring. In some embodiments, methods and devices of measuring a mean arterial pressure are provided and/or monitoring blood pressure changes. A wrist-worn device may include a plurality of sensors backed by a plurality of actuators. Subsets of the plurality of sensors may be selectively actuateable against a wrist of a user using one or more of the plurality of actuators. A preferred sensor and location may be identified based on pressure signals received from each of the sensors. In some embodiments, devices may use a fluid bladder coupled with piezoelectric film sensors. A fluid bladder pressure sensor may be used to calibrate the piezoelectric film signal to provide a static and dynamic pressure reading. In yet another embodiment, a mean arterial pressure may be calculated by processing a swept pressure signal obtained as a sensor is swept through different heights.
