ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS FOR PHYSIOLOGICAL MONITORING DEVICE
The present disclosure relates to a device configured to be adhered to the surface of a mammal for recording physiological signals. The device may include a housing enclosing a circuit board and a flexible wing extending from the housing. The device may include an electrode coupled to the flexible wing and an electrical trace for transmitting an electrical signal between the electrode and the circuit board. The electrical trace may have an insulator with a conductive material and resistors printed on the surface of the insulator. The trace layer may include conductive vias for transmitting the signal from a bottom of the trace layer to a top of the trace layer. The housing may include a battery having a battery terminal connector configured to provide electrical access to both terminals on a single side of the battery. The housing may include a floating trigger button.
Wearable device with conductive traces and insulator
The present disclosure relates to a wearable device that includes a housing, battery terminal connector, conductive traces, and an insulator for recording signals. The device may include a housing enclosing a circuit board and a battery. The device may include two conductive traces electrically connected to terminals of the battery and an insulator separating the conductive traces. The battery terminal connector can present both the conductive traces to the outer surface for coupling to a circuit board. The device can assess the physiological signals to infer a likelihood of arrhythmia of a user.
CASE-SPECIFIC FLUID MANAGEMENT
A method of managing fluid conditions in a patient involves advancing at least one medical instrument into a target organ of a patient, the at least one medical instrument comprising an irrigation channel and an aspiration channel, coupling the at least one medical instrument to an irrigation fluid source, providing irrigation from the irrigation fluid source into the target organ through the irrigation channel of the at least one medical instrument, determining an irrigation pressure limit based at least in part on one or more case-specific parameters, providing irrigation into the target organ through the irrigation channel, and limiting the irrigation based at least in part on the determined irrigation pressure limit.
Surgical visualization systems and displays
A medical apparatus is described for providing visualization of a surgical site. The medical apparatus includes an electronic display disposed within a display housing. The medical apparatus includes a display optical system disposed within the display housing, the display optical system comprising a plurality of lens elements disposed along an optical path. The display optical system is configured to receive images from the electronic display. The medical apparatus can include.
Ultrasound apparatus and method of displaying ultrasound images
A method of displaying an ultrasound image includes reading, based on a user's input, the ultrasound image stored in a storage medium; displaying, on a screen, the ultrasound image and TGC information that is matched to the ultrasound image; receiving an input of modifying the TGC information by adjusting a TGC value in the TGC information, the at least one TGC value corresponding to a depth value; and updating the ultrasound image based on the modified TGC information.
X-ray detector, mobile device and host device
A mobile device, a host device, and an X-ray detector are provided. The mobile device includes a first communicator configured to receive identification information of the X-ray detector from the X-ray detector, and a second communicator configured to send the received identification information of the X-ray detector to the host device.
IMAGE ANALYSIS FOR DETECTING DEVIATIONS FROM A SURGICAL PLANE
Systems, methods, and computer readable media related to detection in video of surgical instrumental deviations from surgical planes are disclosed. The methods may include receiving video frames from a surgical video feed. The frames are analyzed to identify a surgical instrument. The frames are evaluated with the identified surgical instrument to ascertain an interface area corresponding to a location of an interaction between the identified surgical instrument and tissue. Stored data is accessed characterizing a surgical plane corresponding to the interaction, and the stored data is used to determine whether the interface area is outside of the surgical plane. An out-of-surgical plane signal is outputted indicating a deviation from the surgical plane by the surgical instrument.
AUTOMATED ASSESSMENT OF SURGICAL COMPETENCY FROM VIDEO ANALYSES
Systems and methods for analyzing surgical procedures and assessing surgical competency of subjects are disclosed. A method may include receiving a plurality of video frames associated with at least one surgical procedure and accessing stored data based on prior surgical procedures. The method may further include processing, using the stored data, the video frames to assess at least one of tissue handling, economy of motion, depth perception and surgical procedure flow in the video frames. Based on the assessment of at least one of tissue handling, economy of motion, depth perception and surgical procedure flow, a competency-related score for a subject may be generated. The method may further include selecting, from the video frames, at least one video clip from which the competency score was derived, outputting the score, and presenting in association with the at least one score, a link to the at least one video clip.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR INTRAOPERATIVE VIDEO REVIEW
Systems, methods, and computer readable media related to providing intraoperative video review are disclosed. They involve receiving a plurality of video frames from a surgical video of an ongoing surgical procedure. Stored data based on prior surgical procedures may be accessed and at least one expected future event in the ongoing surgical procedure may be predicted based on the plurality of video frames and the stored data. At least one option to review at least one surgical video clip associated with the expected future event in the surgical procedure may be generated. A data structure containing the at least one surgical video clip may be accessed and the at least one surgical video clip associated with the expected future event may be outputted for intra-surgical presentation.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR ASSIGNING SURGICAL TEAMS TO PROSPECTIVE SURGICAL PROCEDURES
Systems, methods, and computer readable media related to assigning surgical teams to prospective surgeries are disclosed. They involve analyzing a plurality of video frames of prior surgical procedures performed by a particular surgeon to ascertain a skill level of the particular surgeon. Stored data containing patient characteristics and a surgical schedule including a plurality of prospective surgical events may be accessed and patient characteristics may be obtained. A plurality of video frames of prior surgical procedures may be analyzed to ascertain an expected amount of time for the particular surgeon to perform at least one particular prospective surgical procedure, to determine requirements for a particular prospective surgical procedure, and to determine whether the particular surgeon meets the requirements of the particular prospective surgery. An indicator may be output when the particular surgeon meets the requirements of the at least one particular prospective surgical procedure.
