A medical device capable of determining its location is provided. The medical device comprises a memory, one or more antennas, one or more processors coupled with the memory and the one or more antennas, a location manager component executable by the one or more processors. The location manager component is configured to receive first location information from a first location information source and second location information from a second location information source, to rank the first location information source and the second location information source according to a hierarchy of location information sources, the hierarchy of location information sources specifying that the first location information source is of higher rank than the second location information source, determine an approximate location of the medical device based on the first location information, and improve the accuracy of the approximate location based on the second location information.

A method of administering insulin includes receiving scheduled glucose time intervals and obtaining glucose data of a patient that includes glucose measurements, glucose times, and insulin dosages previously administered by the patient. The method also includes applying a set of filters to identify which of the glucose measurements associated with at least one of the scheduled time intervals are usable and which of the glucose measurements associated with the at least one scheduled time interval are unusable. The method also includes aggregating the glucose measurements associated with the at least one scheduled time interval identified as usable to determine a representative aggregate glucose measurement and determining a next recommended insulin dosage for the patient based on the representative aggregate glucose measurement and the insulin dosages previously administered by the patient.

Systems and methods for vital sign monitors are disclosed herein. In some cases, a warning score is calculated based on first measurements of a first biological condition and second measurements of a second biological condition. In particular cases, the first measurements and the second measurements are automatically measured during the same time period. The warning score may be calculated based on an average of the first measurements and an average of the second measurements. Based on determining that the warning score is outside of a predetermined range, a clinical device may output an alert.

A health monitoring system and corresponding method for monitoring a physiological condition of a user may include collecting, by a monitoring device, measurements representing physiological signals of the body, transmitting the measurements from the monitoring device to a local device, and receiving, at a remote server, the measurements and additional data from the local device. The remote server may include a processing module, a review portal and a clinician portal, such that the remote server may be arranged to automatically classify the measurements representing physiological signals of the body, verify the classifications, and provide the verified measurements at a clinician portal.

A dry electrode and a physiological multi-parameter monitoring equipment are disclosed. The waterproof dry electrode comprises an encapsulation, extraction electrode and a contact surface layer, wherein the extraction electrode and the contact surface layer are connected with each other and disposed in the encapsulation; the contact surface layer comprises an exposed part and an embedded part encapsulation; the encapsulation comprises flexible silica gel and hard plastic portion, the embedded part being embedded into the hard plastic portion, and the hard plastic portion being packaged in the flexible silica gel. Through the above arrangement in the present invention, the dry electrode can reach a waterproof grade of IPX7, which is higher than living waterproof grade of an ordinary dry electrode. The PMPME can be a patch-type acquisition and monitoring equipment which is convenient for long time wearing and physiological multi-parameter monitoring, with excellent sealing and waterproofness, and the electrode is reusable.

Systems and methods are presented for monitoring brain pulsatility. A change in volume of the brain is estimated based at least in part on an output of a non-contact, surface measuring sensor (e.g., a distance sensor or a camera). A metric indicative of brain pulsatility is then calculated based at least in part on a ratio of the estimated change in volume of the brain relative to a change in arterial blood pressure.

Methods, apparatus, and systems relating to a Wearable Cardioverter Defibrillator (WCD) system capable of logging event data and/or broadcasting state changes and/or system status information to external clients are described. In an embodiment, a processor stores data corresponding to one or more event markers in memory in response to occurrence of an event. Occurrence of the event is detected based at least in part on detection of one or more parameters by one or more sensors or a signal to be generated by one or more of electrodes of the WCD system. A communication device transmits at least a portion of the stored data to a remote device. A patient condition or a WCD system condition can then be detected based at least in part on analysis of the stored data and/or the transmitted portion of the stored data.

A security portal has a body having sidewalls and a top, a floor, and an entrance passageway, a remotely operable entrance barrier at the entrance passageway, a remotely operable exit barrier at the exit passageway, input apparatus in the security portal, an optical temperature sensor positioned and remotely operable to sense the subject's skin temperature, and a computerized base station remote from the security portal. The operative opens the entrance barrier to admit the subject, uses the input apparatus to solicit information, performs an evaluation process involving identity and skin temperature, and, depending on result of the evaluation process, the operative opens the entrance barrier and asks the subject to leave through the entrance passageway, or opens the exit barrier and asks the subject to leave through the exit passageway into the secured area.

Techniques are described for integrating blood pressure measurement (BPM) into a portable electronic device. For example, an input interface of the device includes an integrated force sensor. Human-discernable feedback is output to the user, while using the force sensor to monitor fingertip pressure being applied by the user on the input interface, to guide the user into a first condition in which capillary fingertip blood flow (CFBF) is occluded. The human-discernable feedback is then output to the user, while continuing to use the force sensor to monitor the fingertip pressure, to guide the user into one or more subsequent conditions that allow non-occluded CFBF signals to be sensed by one or more sensors (e.g., the force sensor, an optical fingerprint sensor, etc.). The sensed non-occluded CFBF signals can be used to generate one or more CFBF-based BPM readings for the user (e.g., which can be calibrated to arterial BPM).

A method can include receiving, using one or more processors, a first record including a first data associated with a personal identification from a first database, receiving, using the one or more processors, a second record including a second data associated with a user identification from a second database, pairing, using the one or more processors, the first data and the second data based upon a shared data item contained in the first record and the second record, and displaying, using one or more processors, a report based upon the first data and the second data.
