Medical device for diagnosing pressure ulcers
Medical device or instrument for diagnosing pressure ulcers using optical reflectance spectroscopy. The device may comprise a tip and a controller. The tip is pressed against the skin of the patient and collects the optical reflectance data. The controller processes the data to determine whether there exists a pressure ulcer and, if there is one, its depth. The tip may also include a pressure sensor for sensing the pressure at which the tip is applied to the patient's skin.
Biomaterial collection method
Apparatus and assemblies for automated sterile collection of urine and other biomaterials for medical testing, law enforcement testing, etc. Individual sample collection cartridges include an inflatable collection conduit and an inflatable collection vessel. The collection vessel can be sealed in multiple locations in a chronologically sequential manner to segregate an initial or “dirty” portion of a urine stream.
Personal wellness and wellbeing information system
System for the purpose of realizing wellness and wellbeing that enables users to define personal wellness and wellbeing objectives that establish the scope of contextualizing user specific condition. The system collects and co-analyzes ambient pollution and physiological biomarkers data that include ambient airborne pollution, electric field radiation pollution, magnetic field radiation pollution, RF signal radiation pollution, temperature changes, relative humidity, and users' physiological biomarkers. The system operates in three modes: interactive, passive, and physical mode, and it uses range extender remote ambient pollution monitors to cover any desired indoor-space. The system is built on a universal holder that expands and retracts both vertical and horizontal dimensions to fit as a protective case and sleeve for various sizes of smartphone and handheld devices. The system guides and orchestrates users' deliberate effort of achieving target wellness and wellbeing objectives, and it informs any adverse condition to the users' wellness and wellbeing.
