A measuring apparatus (100) is provided for fitting to an animal body for measuring changes in concentration of a chromophore in the animal body. The measuring apparatus (100) has a plurality of devices (120). Each device (120) has a light source (122) for emitting light towards an animal body and a light detector (124) for detecting light returning from the said animal body. A device controller (126) receives signals from and sends signals to a main controller (160). The device controllers (126) of the plural devices (120) are respectively connected to a connection arrangement (150).

A system and method for comprehensive remote monitoring of a user's vital signs and bodily functions includes a wearable monitor in bi-directional communication with a gateway element that communicates with one or more external devices to allow remote access to user vital sign and bodily function information.

A system is provided for monitoring glucose in a host, including a continuous glucose sensor that produces a data stream indicative of a host's glucose concentration and an integrated receiver that receives the data stream from the continuous glucose sensor and calibrates the data stream using a single point glucose monitor that is integral with the integrated receiver. The integrated receiver obtains a glucose value from the single point glucose monitor, calibrates the sensor data stream received from the continuous glucose sensor, and displays one or both of the single point glucose measurement values and the calibrated continuous glucose sensor values on the user interface.

A sensor system for monitoring patients is provided. The sensor system includes a wireless charging dock, one or more patient sensors, and a processing module. The patient sensor is configured to collect patient physiological data and send the data to the processing module. The processing module wirelessly transmits the patient physiological data to a patient monitor system. The wireless charging dock is wirelessly and removably coupled to the processing module to wirelessly provide power for the processing module. The wireless charging dock is magnetically coupled to the processing module.

An assembly for enabling a caregiver to secure a physiological monitoring device to an arm of a user can include the physiological monitoring device a cradle configured to removably secure to the physiological monitoring device and to the user’s arm. The physiological monitoring device can include a first connector port configured to electrically connect to a first cable and a first locking tab movable between an extended position and a retracted position. The cradle can include a base, first and second sidewalls, a back wall connected to the base and the first and second sidewalls. The cradle can further include a first opening in the back wall configured to receive the first connector port and a second opening in the first sidewall configured to receive the first locking tab when the physiological monitoring device is secured to the cradle and the first locking tab is in the extended position.

A biological-information acquisition device is provided that includes a biometric sensor part including a biometric sensor that detects biological information and a living-body wearable part that enables the biometric sensor part to be in contact with a living body and a main body part including an information processing section that processes biological information and a battery that supplies power. The biometric sensor part is configured to be replaceable by being separated from the main body part, and the main body part is detachably attached to the biometric sensor in such a manner as not to come into contact with a living body when the biometric sensor part is worn on the living body.

A blood pressure monitor configured to removably mount to a cuff in a substantially symmetrical position with respect to a width of the cuff can include a housing defining an interior, a first port, and a second port. The first port can: secure to a first prong of the cuff when the cuff is mounted in a first orientation; receive and secure to a second prong of the cuff when the cuff is mounted in a second orientation; and enable fluid communication between the interior and at least one of a first fluid passage within the first prong and a second fluid passage within the second prong. The second port can: secure to the second prong of the cuff when the cuff is mounted in the first orientation; and receive and secure to the first prong of the cuff when the cuff is mounted in the second orientation.

An intraoral monitoring device includes a flexible substrate, a plurality of sensors, a rechargeable battery, a device module and a communication module. The plurality of sensors senses a plurality of health parameters from an associated user, in real time, to generate a plurality of sensed signals. The device module includes a memory, a controller and a segregation module. The memory stores various health parameters and their respective ranges, various health reports of the user, and basic details of all users. A controller is configured to generate sensed data and the segregation module is configured to segregate the data corresponding to the plurality of health parameters associated with the users. A communication module is configured to enable data communication to and from the intraoral device.
