The case portion has a shape of protruding from the belt portion in a longitudinal direction of the arm when the belt portion is worn on the arm, and amounts D1 and D2 of protrusions protruding in the longitudinal direction are different between one protrusion and the other protrusion.

There is provided an apparatus (100) for detecting tissue inflammation. The apparatus (100) comprises a processor (102) configured to acquire, from at least one sensor (104), a plurality of photoplethysmography, PPG, signals indicative of light detected in a region of tissue at a plurality of respective locations within the region. The processor is also configured to process the acquired plurality of PPG signals to determine an amplitude and a phase of each of the plurality of PPG signals and detect tissue inflammation based on the determined amplitude and phase of each of the plurality of PPG signals.

Examples of a device for guiding and detecting a motion of a target joints and a motion assistance system such motion guiding devices are described. The motion guiding and detecting device comprises a motion generator and a motion transfer and target interfacing unit to transfer the motion generated by the motion generator to the target joint. The system further includes a motion detection and feedback unit that interfaces with the target, and a controller that interfaces with both the feedback unit and the motion generator to control and coordinate the motion of the motion generator and the target joint.

A diagnosis device, and more particularly, a compartment syndrome diagnostic device is described herein. The diagnostic device may include a display that renders information associated with stimulation of a motor unit suspected of suffering from compartment syndrome. The diagnostic device may generate a stimulation signal for stimulating the motor unit through an electrode. The device may determine whether the motor unit is at risk for compartment syndrome based on the response of the motor unit to the stimulation. The diagnostic device may also measure pressure of a compartment. The device may determine whether the motor unit is at risk for compartment syndrome based on the measured pressure and the response of the motor unit to the stimulation.

A computer implemented method for consolidating and visually presenting information related to the physique of the user and their muscle training volume; specifically, tracking weight lifted per muscle group.

Provided is a non-invasive system and method for determining a fuel value for a target muscle and potentially at least one indicator muscle. The method includes receiving an ultrasound scan of a target muscle; evaluating at least a portion of the ultrasound scan to determine fuel value within the target muscle; recording the determined fuel value for the muscle as an element of a data set for the muscle; evaluating the fuel data set to determine a value range; and in response to the range being at least above a pre-determined threshold, establishing a target score for the muscle as based on an upper portion of the value range. The method may be repeated to identify ranges for a plurality of muscles, the muscle with the greatest range being identified as an indicator muscle. Based on these findings the muscles estimated fuel level, fuel rating and energy status may be determined. An associated system is also disclosed.

Embodiments of devices and methods for evaluating tissue are disclosed. In one embodiment, a method for measuring a characteristic of a tissue may include passing a current through the tissue, measuring a signal corresponding to the voltage resulting from passing the current through the tissue, analyzing current passed through the tissue and resulting voltage to determine the electrical characteristics of the tissue; and analyzing the electrical characteristics of the tissue to determine a status of the tissue. Methods for achieving relatively constant sensor application pressure are disclosed.

An implant unit configured for implantation into a body of a subject is provided. The implant unit may include a flexible carrier unit including a central portion and two elongated arms extending from the central portion, an antenna, located on the central portion, configured to receive a signal, at least one pair of electrodes arranged on a first elongated arm of the two elongated arms. The at least one pair of electrodes may be adapted to modulate a first nerve. The elongated arms of the flexible carrier may be configured to form an open ended curvature around a muscle with the nerve to be stimulated within an arc of the curvature.

The disclosed system for interacting with objects in an extended reality (XR) environment generated by an XR system may include (1) neuromuscular sensors configured to sense neuromuscular signals from a wrist of a user and (2) at least one computer processor programmed to (a) determine, based at least in part on the sensed neuromuscular signals, information relating to an interaction of the user with an object in the XR environment and (b) instruct the XR system to, based on the determined information relating to the interaction of the user with the object, augment the interaction of the user with the object in the XR environment. Other embodiments of this aspect include corresponding apparatus, and computer programs recorded on one or more computer storage devices, each configured to perform the actions of the methods.

A system, device and method are provided for exposing a patient to therapeutic resonant frequency patterns (RFP) for therapy and treatment of a patient, for example, biological tissue such as muscle, tendon, ligament, and nerve tissue. The resonance frequencies originate from many bioactive substances, pharmaceuticals or other compounds, and key frequencies of the RFP of a compound can be replicated and then delivered to a patient using an electromagnetic catalyst to provide therapeutic benefits. RFPs can be imprinted in a separate device using a plasma imprinting device and method. This separate device can be actively excited by a delivery mechanism that uses electromagnetic or mechanical waves to interact with the device. The actively excited device transmits the RFPs or therapeutic resonant frequency patterns to the patient for similar enhancements and therapeutic benefits.
