HEADSETS AND ELECTRODES FOR GATHERING ELECTROENCEPHALOGRAPHIC DATA
Example headsets and electrodes are described herein. Example electrode units described herein include a housing having a cavity defined by an opening in a side of the housing and an electrode. In some such examples, the electrode includes a ring disposed in the opening and an arm, where the arm has a first portion extending outward from the opening away from the housing and a second portion extending from an end of the first portion toward the housing and into the cavity, and the first and second portions connect at a bend.
Systems, monitor mounts, monitors, racks, modules, and cable holders
A monitor mount is configured to detachably secure a monitor via a coupling which can be disengaged with an actuator. The monitor mount may be configured to detachably secure the monitor to a support structure via a clip. The monitor may have a reversible cover. The monitor may have a simplified back portion. The simplified back portion may omit couplings or electrical connections such that a back surface of the monitor is continuous. A rack is configured to detachably secure a module therein in multiple positions in which the module is mechanically connected to the rack and electrically connected or disconnected to the rack. The monitor may be a patient monitor and the module may be a patient monitoring module.
UNIVERSAL PERIPHERAL EXTENDER ARCHITECTURE, SYSTEM, AND METHOD
A universal peripheral extender architecture, system, and method is disclosed that addresses the need of communicatively connecting peripheral I/O devices and the smart host devices in legacy, medical, and industrial applications. As disclosed, a universal peripheral extender includes an I/O device translation & management module that has a device-side utility, a host-side I/O device translation & management utility, and a host/device translation & management scheduler utility.
Generic Box for Electrophysiology System Adapters
Apparatus, including an enclosure having a base and a cover with respective conductive layers. The conductive layers connect to form a shield attenuating electromagnetic radiation originating outside the enclosure in a range of 10 kHz-100 kHz by at least 20 dB within the enclosure. An adapter circuit within the enclosure processes electrophysiological signals to generate an output signal. A first connector passing through the enclosure connects to a probe to receive the electrophysiological signals and convey them to the adapter circuit. A second connector passing through the enclosure receives the output signal from the adapter circuit and conveys it to a console. A control input receives a control signal indicative of a frequency within the range, and a sensing circuit senses a magnetic field within the enclosure and outputs a warning signal when the magnetic field at the frequency indicated by the control signal exceeds a preset threshold.
Physiological signal monitoring device and sensor holder thereof
The present invention discloses a holder carrying thereon a sensor to measure a physiological signal of an analyte in a biological fluid, wherein the sensor has a signal detection end and a signal output end, and the holder includes an implantation hole being a channel for implanting therethrough the sensor and containing a part of the sensor, and a containing indentation containing the signal output end, wherein the containing indentation has a surrounding wall kept apart from the signal output end to define a space.
Sensor cable support device including mechanical connectors
A sensor cable support device is described. The sensor cable support device can be used to implemented in wearable monitoring device to support a proximal portion of a sensor cable and electrically connect the proximal portion with a sensing circuitry. A distal portion of the sensor cable is insertable into a person's skin. The sensor cable support device may include a rigid body defining a pair of openings, a set legs attached to the rigid body, and a pair of electrical traces extending between the pair of openings and distal ends of a pair of legs of the set of legs. The pair of openings may be sized and configured to receive a pair of pucks that mechanically retain a sensor cable to the body and electrically connect the sensor cable with the electrical traces.
CONNECTOR PROVIDING A CONNECTION THROUGH A FLEXIBLE BARRIER
The present invention relates to a connector for connection through a flexible barrier. The connector comprises at least a device pad and at least a landing pad. The device pad is arranged in close proximity to the landing pad for contactless connection through the flexible barrier to transmit and/or receive data and/or power between each other. The device pad and the landing pad are configured to attach and/or align to each other. Furthermore, a system for connection through a flexible barrier, an according method, computer program element and computer readable medium are provided.
GUIDE WIRE CONNECTOR
A connector is provided with a holding component, a support component, a terminal electrically connected to a contact of a guide wire held by the holding component, and a guide component rotatable around an axial line of the guide wire with respect to the support component. The holding component is provided with a body having an insertion hole for the guide wire and a holding piece extending along an axial line of the insertion hole from the body and capable of being elastically deformed inward in a radial direction with respect to the axial line. The guide component has a guide surface guiding the holding piece inward in the radial direction. The holding component is slid along the axis line of the insertion hole with respect to the guide component, whereby the holding piece abuts on the guide surface to be elastically deformed inward in the radial direction.
HIGHLY INTEGRATED ANALYTE DETECTION DEVICE
A highly integrated analyte detection device is provided. The transmitter is composed of a shell, a cover body, a circuit module and an electrical connection module. The circuit module is fixedly connected with the shell, one end of the electric connection module is fixedly connected with the circuit module, the other end extends to the outside through the through hole on the shell, and is electrically connected with other structural parts. The sealing material is filled between the electric connection module and the through hole, and the cover body and the shell are clamped together to form a seal for the circuit module, which makes the transmitter structure simpler. The shell and the circuit module can be processed separately and then assembled. The production process is less difficult and the production cost is reduced at the same time.
Devices, systems and methods for controlling a spring force exerted on a sensor for obtaining bio-conductance readings using a linear actuator
A probe device provides an enhanced bioelectric and spring-loaded sensing tip with an integrated force sensor. The probe device measures the bioelectric conductance value from a patient for therapeutic and/or diagnostic purpose using the spring-loaded sensing tip. In addition, the probe device measures the force applied by the spring-loaded sensing tip against the patient using the integrated force sensor. Using feedback from the force sensor and the bioconductive data of the patient, the force applied at the spring-loaded sensing tip may be adjusted to obtain improved results.
