A method for performing dynamic classification of a breathing session is disclosed. The method comprises capturing breathing sounds of a subject using a microphone. Further, it comprises recognizing a plurality of breath cycles and a plurality of breath phases within each of the plurality of breath cycles from the breathing sounds. It also comprises detecting characteristics regarding the plurality of breath cycles and the plurality of breath phases. Finally, it comprises extracting metrics concerning a breath pattern quality of the subject using the detected characteristics.

Examples herein may include a computer-implemented method for providing outcome tracking of patients, which may include generating an event trigger for the patient, wherein during a duration of the patient's recovery, the event trigger may correspond to values of a patient biomarker over or under threshold values while the patient is performing a post-surgery activity related to the patient's recovery. The computer-implemented method may include receiving actual patient biomarker data from a patient sensor system for the patient while the patient is performing a post-surgery activity. If the actual patient biomarker data includes values over or under the threshold value while the patient is performing a post-surgery activity, the method may include triggering the event trigger. The method may include generating a notification alert corresponding to the event trigger.

A surgical computing system may receive usage data associated with movement of a surgical instrument and user inputs to the surgical instrument. The surgical computing system may receive motion and/or biomarker sensor data from sensing systems applied to the operator of the surgical instrument. The surgical computing system may determine, based on at least one of the usage data and/or the sensor data, a control feature for implementation by the surgical instrument. The surgical computing system may communicate the determined control feature(s) to the surgical instrument. The surgical instrument may modify its operation based on the control features.

A respiratory device may include an inlet port and an outlet port. A fluid pathway may extend between the inlet port and the outlet port. A filter housing may be positioned between the inlet port and the outlet port. A filter may be positioned within the filter housing. A first pressure port may be positioned on an inlet side of the filter housing. A second pressure port may be positioned on an outlet side of the filter housing. The first pressure port and the second pressure port may extend parallel to the fluid pathway. A pressure transducer may be coupled to the first pressure port and the second pressure port and configured to measure a pressure drop between the first pressure port and the second pressure port.

Systems and methods are configured to inexsufflate a subject and provide cough-by-cough feedback during treatment and/or therapy of the subject. Through sensors that are included in the systems, various gas and/or respiratory parameters maybe measured and/or determined in real-time, such as, for example, peak cough flow and/or inspiratory tidal volume.

Provided are apparatuses and methods for non-invasively and continuously measuring physiological parameters of a mammal subject. The apparatus includes multiple sensor systems attached to the mammal subject, and a microcontroller unit (MCU). The sensor systems are time-synchronized and communicate with each other wirelessly and bidirectionally. Each of the sensor systems includes at least one sensor configured to detect a vital sign of the mammal subject and generate a corresponding one of the physiological parameters. The MCU is in wireless communication with the plurality of sensor systems. In operation, the MCU receives, from the sensor systems, and displays the physiological parameters of the mammal subject. The apparatus and method can be used in applications such as developing therapeutics or vaccines for a disease, or diagnosing a disease.

A method of cough detection in a headset, the method comprising: receiving a first signal from an external transducer of the headset; receiving a second signal from an in-ear transducer of the headset; and detecting a cough of a user of the headset based on the first and second signals.

Methods and systems for temperature screening using a mobile device. In one example, a mobile temperature screening system may comprise a mobile device including a display, a memory, a processor, a thermal imaging camera, a visible light imaging camera, and a wireless communication capability. The processor may be configured to obtain a thermal image of a person and a visible light image of the person, determine a body temperature of the person based at least in part on the thermal image, and classify the person as having a normal body temperature when the body temperature of the person is below a threshold temperature. When the body temperature of the person exceeds the threshold temperature the processor may be configured to classify the person as having an elevated body temperature, generate a visual alert, and transmit the thermal image, the visible light image and the classification to a remote device.

A system and method for collecting symptomatic data to screen for a targeted disease. Testing hardware incorporates a plurality of testing units with corresponding indicators that can be altered to indicate whether a symptom is present or not. The resulting data from the testing use can then be analyzed to determine the likelihood of presence of a disease.

A method and apparatus may capture a video of a crowd of people near a first person, transmit the video of the crowd to a second device, and receive, from the second device, an indication that a second person in the crowd appears to be at least one of (a) interested in meeting the first person, and (b) a threat to the first person. A display on the frame may display the received indication to the first person.
