The present invention relates generally to systems and methods for measuring an analyte in a host. More particularly, the present invention relates to systems and methods for processing sensor data, including calculating a rate of change of sensor data and/or determining an acceptability of sensor or reference data.

An oximetry device sealed in a sheath directs a user to allow the oximetry device to make oximetry readings at a number of different tissue locations of a patient and average two or more of the oximetry readings by directing the lifts and placements of the oximetry device and sheath to and from the different tissue locations and detecting the lift and placements. The averages are generated and displayed on a display of the device for the oximetry readings if the lifts are made while use directions for the lifts are displayed on a display of the oximetry device. The averages are not generated if the lifts are not made while the user directions for the lifts are not displayed. The averages are simultaneously displayed with the oximetry readings which are instantaneous measurement for patient tissue.

An ambulatory medical device including a plurality of sensing electrodes and one or more processors operably coupled to the plurality of sensing electrodes is provided. Each sensing electrodes is configured to be coupled eternally to a patient and to detect one or more ECG signals. The one or more processors are configured to receive at least one electrode-specific digital signal for each of the plurality of sensing electrodes, determine a noise component for each of the electrode-specific digital signals, analyze each of the noise components for each of the plurality of sensing electrodes, generate electrode matching information for each sensing electrode of the plurality of sensing electrodes based upon analysis of each of the noise components, determine one or more sensing electrode pairs based upon the electrode matching information, and monitor each of the one or more sensing electrode pairs for ECG activity of the patient.

A computer implemented method for determining heart arrhythmias based on cardiac activity that includes under control of one or more processors of an implantable medical device (IMD) configured with specific executable instructions to obtain far field cardiac activity (CA) signals at electrodes located remote from the heart, and obtain acceleration signatures, at an accelerometer of the IMD, indicative of heart sounds generated during the cardiac beats. The IMD is also configured with specific executable instructions to declare a candidate arrhythmia based on a characteristic of at least one R-R interval from the cardiac beats, and evaluate the acceleration signatures for ventricular events (VEs) to re-assess a presence or absence of at least one R-wave from the cardiac beats and based thereon confirming or denying the candidate arrhythmia.

A computer-implemented method for direct photoplethysmography or direct PPG comprises obtaining during a time interval plural PPG signals for respective sensors in a wearable device; and combining the plural PPG signals to thereby obtain a multi-sensor PPG signal.

The present invention relates to a physiological monitor and system, more particularly to an electroencephalogram (EEG) monitor and system, and a method of detecting the presence or occurrence of suppression in the EEG signal. Accurately detecting signal suppression in real-time provides the clinician with the ability to prevent possibly severe, long-term damage to patients as a result of excessive anesthetic or sedative. The present invention provides such a system and method for accurately and automatically detecting suppression in physiological, particularly EEG, signals in real-time and allowing for the administration of treatment or medication to reverse the effects of such situations, or minimize the harm caused. The present invention also allows for the use of closed-loop treatment or drug delivery systems to further automate the process and provide rapid treatment to a patient to reverse or minimize potential harm.

An analyte monitoring system and method. The analyte monitoring system may include an analyte sensor and a transceiver. The analyte sensor may include an analyte indicator that exhibits one or more detectable properties based on an amount or concentration of an analyte in proximity to the indicator. The transceiver may be configured to receive one or more measurements from the sensor. The transceiver may be configured to assess in real time a performance of the sensor based on at least the one or more measurements. The transceiver may be configured to determine whether the performance of the sensor is deficient based at least on the assessed performance of the sensor. The transceiver may be configured to calculate an analyte level based on at least the one or more sensor measurements. The transceiver may be configured to determine whether the calculated analyte level is a spike.

The present invention relates to a device (100), system (500) and method for determining SpO2 (160) of a subject. Two types of PPG measurements, widefield PPG with a homogenous illumination and/or a spot pattern and radial PPG with a spot illumination, are used to quantify the discrepancy in penetration depths for electromagnetic radiation in the red spectral range and infrared spectral range. This discrepancy in penetration depth is then used to find a more stable ratio signals of ratios, RR, and thus a more accurate SpO2 (160).

A detection result output method, an electronic device, and a medium are provided. The detection result output method includes: obtaining first image information of a first object, where the first image information includes skin information of the first object; outputting a target detection result in a case that a matching degree between a first image and a target image meets a first preset condition; and outputting a first detection result in a case that the matching degree between the first image and the target image does not meet the first preset condition. The target detection result is a detection result corresponding to the target image, and the first detection result is a detection result corresponding to the first image.

Systems and methods for assessing, monitoring, or theranosing a condition or disorder based on a comparison of limb stability for one or more limbs of a subject from a baseline. The method includes placing two or more inertial measurement sensors on the limbs of the subject, acquiring baseline limb excursion data from the inertial measurement sensors while a patient is performing at least one of a static balance activity and a dynamic balance activity by tracking the relative displacement of the respective two or more inertial measurement sensors; acquiring post-injury limb excursion data after an injury from the inertial measurement sensors while a patient is performing at least one of a static balance activity and a dynamic balance activity; and determining the activity clearance index as a function of a comparison of the baseline limb excursion data compared to the post-injury limb excursion data.
