A chatbot capable of empathic engagement with a user is disclosed. An identified trend in a user's mood or goals between a first time and a second time can be associated with open input (e.g., open text string input) from the user. As the user's mood or goals continue to be tracked, a subsequent trend can be identified that is the same as, similar to, different from, or opposite to the first identified trend. The user can then be automatically engaged based on the open input associated with the first identified trend. In an example, a user may input thoughts or reasons why they have been having a positively trending mood over a duration of time. The chatbot can then repeat or otherwise use those same thoughts or reasons to engage the user empathically when the chatbot detects that the user is experiencing a negatively trending mood.

Disclosed is a system for associating a symptom with a medical condition. The system comprises a server arrangement, associated with a user device. The server arrangement is operable to: provide, to user device, a set of user activities; receive, from user device, information relating to selection of a user activity from set of user activities; receive, from user device, user input associated with selected user activity; analyse user input and assign performance score thereto; identify, based on performance score, one or more symptoms; and assign severity score to symptom for associating symptom with medical condition. Disclosed also is method for associating symptom with medical condition and computer program product to execute aforementioned method.

A wearable device for monitoring physical activity of a user, the wearable device being reversibly attachable to a chest strap and an arm strap. The wearable device comprises an ECG sensor arranged to collect ECG measurements of the user only when the wearable device is attached to the user's chest by the chest strap, and a PPG sensor arranged to collect PPG measurements of the user when the wearable device is attached to the user's arm or wrist by the arm strap. The wearable device also comprises control circuitry arranged to switch the wearable device between an ECG only mode and a PPG only mode. In the ECG only mode, the control circuitry is configured to control the ECG sensor to collect ECG measurements but prevent the PPG sensor from initiating PPG measurements. In the PPG only mode, the control circuitry is configured to control the PPG sensor to initiate PPG measurements but prevent the ECG sensor from collecting ECG measurements.

In part, the disclosure relates to computer-based methods, devices, and systems suitable for performing intravascular data analysis and measurement of various types of data such as pressure and flow data. The disclosure relates to probes and methods suitable for determining an event in a cardiac cycle such as flow threshold such as a peak flow, a fraction thereof, other intravascular parameters or a point in time during which peak flow or a change in one of the parameters occurs. An exemplary probe includes one or more of a pressure sensor, a resistor, a flow sensor and can be used to generate diagnostic data based upon measured intravascular and other parameters. In part, the disclosure relates to methods and systems suitable for determining a coronary flow reserve value in response to one or more of intravascular pressure and flow data or data otherwise correlated therewith.

A combined MRI and radiotherapy apparatus comprises a radiotherapeutic source, an MRI system, a patient support, drive motors for the patient support arranged to adjust the position of the patient support while a patient is on the support, a control panel having a user-operable input interface for controlling the drive motors, and a display unit. A mounting arrangement for a display device comprises a transparent cover, a display panel held against a rear face of the cover so as to be visible through a front face of the cover, and a retaining structure for holding the display panel in place. The retaining structure comprises a chassis fixable in position relative to the cover, the chassis having at least one resilient finger extending therefrom alongside a rear face of the display panel, a part of which bears against the rear face of the display panel to resiliently urge the display panel against the rear face of the cover. The radiotherapeutic source, MRI system, patient support and the control panel will usually be located within an enclosed space, to confine the therapeutic radiation; a second control panel is provided outside the enclosed space, able to control at least the radiotherapy source.

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.

Aspects of the present disclosure describe systems and methods that enable a user of a computing device (e.g., a smartphone, tablet, etc.) to interact with a wearable device worn by the user. In one embodiment, the computing device provides a touchscreen-based graphical user interface (GUI). The GUI displays a three-quarter view of a plurality of icons arranged in a ring, where each of the icons is associated with a respective health/fitness parameter (e.g., heart rate, blood oxygen saturation, etc.). The GUI enables the user to interact with the wearable device through the computing device, via swiping gestures, presses of icons, and press-and-holds of the icons.

A point-of-care diagnostic system that includes a cartridge and a reader. The cartridge can contain a patient sample, such as a blood sample. The cartridge is inserted into the reader and the patient sample is analyzed. The reader contains various analysis systems, such as an electrophoresis detection system that uses electrophoresis testing to identify and quantify various components of the blood sample. The reader can process data from the various patient sample analysis to provide interpretative results indicative of a disorder, condition, disease and/or infection of the patient.

A wearable biofluid volume and composition system includes a microfluidic flexible fluid capture substrate having a microfluidic channel configured as a sweat collection channel and is configured to be worn on a human body and to collect and analyze biofluid. The microfluidic flexible fluid capture substrate further has a plurality of conductive traces and electrodes. An electronic module is attached to the microfluidic flexible fluid capture substrate and is configured to measure and analyze data from the biofluid collected by the microfluidic flexible fluid capture substrate and to transmit the analyzed data to a smart device.

The present disclosure provides a method, performed in an accessory device, for communicating a leakage state of an ostomy appliance, wherein the accessory device comprises an interface configured to communicate with one or more devices of an ostomy system, the one or more devices comprising a monitor device, and/or the ostomy appliance configured to be placed on a skin surface of a user. The method comprises obtaining monitor data from the one or more devices, the monitor data being indicative of presence of fluid at a proximal side of a first adhesive layer of the ostomy appliance towards the skin surface; determining a leakage state at the proximal side of the first adhesive layer of the ostomy appliance based on the monitor data, and communicating the leakage state of the ostomy appliance via the interface.
