Tissue hydration monitor
11690567 · 2023-07-04 · ·

A tissue hydration monitor and method includes a sensor module having a plurality of LEDs positioned to emit a plurality of different wavelengths of light toward the user's skin and a detector that detects light transmitted and reflected through the user's skin to generate signals corresponding to an intensity of detected light at each of the different wavelengths. A processor/controller module generates a baseline hydration level based on the received signals, calculates a relative hydration level, and generates an output indicative of relative hydration personalized to the user. The housing is secured against the user's skin by an adhesive patch or a strap.

Catheter Having A Fiber Optic Force Sensor With A Mirror Having A Patterned Reflectance
20230000437 · 2023-01-05 ·

An ablation catheter Has a spring assembly residing between an ablation head and a proximal catheter body. Three optical fibers extend through a lumen in the catheter body. Three mirrors supported by the ablation head face proximally but are spaced distally from the optical fibers. The mirrors are provided with a pattern of reflectance that varies along a radius from a central area of reflectance. Light of a respective defined power shines from each of the optical fibers to a corresponding one of the mirrors with a reflected percentage of the respective defined light power being reflected back to the optical fiber. A percentage of the reflected percentage of the respective defined light power is captured by and travels along each optical fiber to a dedicated light wave detector connected to a controller. From the percentage of the reflected percentage of the light of the respective defined power received by each detector, the controller is programmed to calculate whether an axial or lateral force is imparted to the ablation head and, if so, the magnitude and vector of those forces.

Wearable Cardioverter Defibrillator (WCD) system logging events and broadcasting state changes and system status information to external clients

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.

USER MOBILE DEVICE INPUT INTERFACE WITH INTEGRATED BLOOD PRESSURE DETECTION
20220400958 · 2022-12-22 ·

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).
