Improved assessment of brain injuries, and improved brain injury management, is achieved using a combination of impact-related data derived from instrumented mouthguard devices, human function performance testing, and biomarkers derived from biological fluid (such as saliva and/or blood). The human function performance testing may include brain function performance testing, and/or other forms of human function performance testing. This involves combining a data-driven understanding of a head impact event (based on data collected via an instrumented mouthguard device) with a data-driven understanding of human function performance following that head impact event. The biomarkers may include salivary mRNA and/or ncRNA, and/or blood proteins (for example via a FDA-approved Brain Trauma Indicator test).

An apparatus device may include a bio-impedance sensor configured to take a bio-impedance measurement from a body of an individual, an optical sensor configured to take an optical measurement from the body of the individual, and a processing device configured to receive a first bio-impedance measurement from the bio-impedance sensor taken during a first period of time and a first optical measurement from the optical sensor taken during the first period of time, receive first location information of the individual during the first period of time, determine a first correlation between a physiological parameter and at least one of the first location, the first bio-impedance measurement, or the first optical measurement, and determine a first level of the physiological parameter based on the first correlation.

A method for monitoring a patient in a bed using a camera. The method includes identifying a boundary of the bed using data from the camera, identifying parts of the patient using data from the camera, and determining an orientation of the patient using the parts identified for the patient. The method further includes monitoring movement of the patient using the parts identified for the patient and computing a departure score indicating the likelihood of the patient departing the bed based on the orientation of the patient and the movement of the patient. The method further includes comparing the departure score to a predetermined threshold and generating a notification when the departure score exceeds the predetermined threshold.

A system for monitoring a patient's orientation to reduce a risk of the patient developing a pressure ulcer can include one or more hardware processors that can receive and process data from a sensor to determine the patient's orientation. The one or more hardware processors can maintain a plurality of timers associated with available orientations of the patient. The one or more hardware processors can modify a value of the plurality of timers based on an amount of time the patient is oriented in the plurality of orientations. The one or more hardware processors can generate an interactive graphical user interface on the display screen. The user interface can include a graphic for illustrating an orientation history of the patient. The one or more hardware processors can modify an appearance of the graphic based upon the values the plurality of timers.

Systems and methods for assessing compliance with position therapy. In an embodiment, position therapy is provided to a user while the user is wearing a position therapy device. The position therapy comprises, by the device, collecting positional data, determining positions of the user over a time period based on the positional data, and, when it is determined that the user is in a target position, providing feedback to the user to influence the user to change to a non-target position. In addition, the device stores a duration of use in its memory. The duration of use indicates a duration that the user has used the wearable position therapy device in each of one or more positions. An assessment of the user's compliance with the position therapy is then provided based, at least in part, on the duration of use.

An example method includes obtaining, a virtual model of a portion of an anatomy of a patient obtained from a virtual surgical plan for an orthopedic joint repair surgical procedure to attach a prosthetic to the anatomy; identifying, based on data obtained by one or more sensors, positions of one or more physical markers positioned relative to the anatomy of the patient; and registering, based on the identified positions, the virtual model of the portion of the anatomy with a corresponding observed portion of the anatomy.

Systems and methods that provide audio feedback in response to gesture validity can provide a more intuitive interface that can train users to correctly complete gestures. Moreover, systems and methods that provide line-specific audio feedback can provide more specific feedback that can allow a user to better understand what sensing line is being contacted. The systems and methods can further include basing the audio feedback based at least in part on obtained activity data, such that invalid and valid feedbacks can provide different sounds dependent on the determined activity state.

A walking support system includes: an information output device (260); a motion detector (220) which detects a motion of a user; a foot landing position detector (230) which detect a foot landing position of the user; a determiner (240) which determines a recommended foot landing position which is a landing position of the feet suitable for stabilizing motions of a gait of the user on the basis of motions of a gait of the user detected by the motion detector, the foot landing position detected by the foot landing position detector, and dynamics; and an output controller (250) which outputs information indicating the recommended foot landing position determined by the determiner to the information output device.
