Tiered time-in-range guiding interfaces for diabetes management
11587672 · 2023-02-21 · ·

Introduced here are diabetes management platforms able to guide people with diabetes toward a glycemic target. Rather than state the absolute amount of glucose within the blood, the diabetes management platform can instead produce personalized glycemic goals based on the physiological data associated with an individual. For example, if the diabetes management platform determines that the time spent within a first glycemic range exceeds a specified threshold, then the diabetes management platform may recommend that the individual attempt to keep their blood glucose level within a second glycemic range. Generally, the second glycemic range is closer than the first glycemic range to a target glycemic range corresponding to a healthy glycemic state.

Biomagnetic field sensor systems and methods for diagnostic evaluation of cardiac conditions

The present disclosure provides a biomagnetic field sensor system for diagnostic evaluation of a cardiac condition of an individual. The biomagnetic field sensor system may comprise an array of biomagnetic field sensors configured to sense an electromagnetic field associated with a heart of the individual and generate electromagnetic field data therefrom; a computer processor coupled to the array of biomagnetic field sensors; a memory configured to store the electromagnetic field data generated by the array of biomagnetic field sensors; and a non-transitory computer-readable medium encoded with a computer program including instructions that, when executed by the computer processor, cause the computer processor to receive the electromagnetic field data, and generate a diagnostic evaluation of a cardiac condition of the individual based at least in part on an analysis of the electromagnetic field data.

Analysis of the severity of skin disease through entropy quantification

The present invention provides an analysis and method of quantifying the severity of skin diseases through the skin exhibited entropy. Quantitative analysis and evaluation of skin is a new, non-invasive, quick, and reproducible method of assessing skin disease and skin disease progression. The quantitative analysis of the skin disease applies a entropy algorithm to quantify the severity of the disease and compared to healthy skin. The method is applied in determination of the severity of the skin disease or applied to determine the effectiveness of the subsequent treatment modalities. It is highly reproducible and removes physician's own bias and past experience.

SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROGNOSIS MANAGEMENT BASED ON MEDICAL INFORMATION OF PATIENT

The disclosure relates to a method for prognosis management based on medical information of a patient, a device, and a medium. The method includes acquiring, by a processor, medical information of the patient at a first time. The method further includes receiving the medical information of the patient at a first time. The method may further include predicting, by a processor, a progression condition of an object associated with the patient at a second time based on the acquired medical information of the first time. The progression condition is indicative of a prognosis risk, and the second time is after the first time. The method may also include outputting the predicted progression condition to an information management system. The method is helpful for users to understand the potential prognosis risk of the object at the second time to aid users in making treatment decisions.

ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND METHOD OF MEASURING BIOMETRIC INFORMATION USING SAME
20230096622 · 2023-03-30 ·

An electronic device includes a display panel and a biometric information module. The display panel includes red-light emitting elements, green-light emitting elements, blue-light emitting elements, and light receiving elements that are spaced from each other. The blue-light emitting elements emit blue light in a biometric information mode of the electronic device. The light receiving elements receive at least one of red light and green light in the biometric information mode of the electronic device after the blue-light emitting elements have emitted the blue light. The light receiving elements generate electrical signals in response to the at least one of the red light and the green light. The biometric information module is electrically connected to the display panel and generates biometric information about a skin of a user based on the electrical signals.

Exemplary embodiments are disclosed of systems and methods for monitoring for and lowering the risk of addiction-related or restriction violation-related behavior(s).

SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROGNOSIS MANAGEMENT BASED ON MEDICAL INFORMATION OF PATIENT

The disclosure relates to a method, a system, and a computer-readable medium for prognosis management based on medical information of a patient. The method may include receiving the medical information including at least a medical image of the patient reflecting a morphology of an object associated with the patient at a first time, The method may further include predicting a progression condition of the object at a second time based on the medical information of the first time, where the progression condition is indicative of a prognosis risk, and the second time is after the first time. The method may also include generating a prognosis image at the second time reflecting the morphology of the object at the second time based on the medical information of the first time. The method may additionally include providing the progression condition of the object at the second time and the prognosis image at the second time to an information management system for presentation to a user.

Battery module for wireless exchange of data and power of a patient monitoring system

The present invention relates to a battery module for wireless exchange of data and power between the battery module and another device of a system, in particular of a patient monitoring system, to which said battery module is coupled. The battery module comprises a sealed housing (93), a battery unit (91) for storing electrical energy, a data storage unit (94) for storing data, and a connector (95). Said connector comprises a data transmission unit (96) for transmitting data to and/or receiving data from another device of the system having a counterpart connector and a magnetic coupling unit (92), separate from the transmission unit (96), for transmitting power to and/or receiving power from another device of the system having a counterpart connector by use of inductive coupling. The battery module is configured for mobile use and for coupling with different devices of the system.

Method for communicating with implant devices

Disclosed is a reader device, system, and method for communicating with a wireless sensor. The reader device may be configured to communicate wirelessly with an implant device associated with a proprietary system provided by a first entity. An external device, that may not be associated with said first entity, is provided and is configured to be calibrated to communicate with the implant device that is located within a patient. The external device may be used in place of an existing reader device that was initially calibrated to communicate with the implant device prior to the implant device being placed within the patient. The external device may be particularly useful for implant devices that communicate wirelessly with external devices where said implant devices are intended to be located within the human body on a permanent or indefinite duration of time.

Virtual ligament balancing

A method of generating a correction plan for a knee of a patient includes obtaining a ratio of reference bone density to reference ligament tension in a reference population. A bone of the knee of the patient may be imaged. From the image of the bone, a first dataset may be determined including at least one site of ligament attachment and existing dwell points of a medial femoral condyle and lateral femoral condyle of the patient on a tibia of the patient. Desired positions of contact in three dimensions of the femoral condyles of the patient with the tibia of the patient may be obtained by determining a relationship in which a ratio of bone density to ligament tension of the patient is substantially equal to the ratio of reference bone density to reference ligament tension.
