SYSTEMS, METHODS, AND DEVICES FOR BIOMARKER SHAPING AND SLEEP PROFILE ENHANCEMENT
Provided are systems, methods, and devices for biomarker shaping and sleep profile enhancement. Systems include a plurality of electrodes configured to be coupled to a brain of a user and configured to obtain a plurality of measurements from the brain of the user, and an interface configured to obtain the plurality of measurements from at least the plurality of electrodes. Systems also include a processing device comprising one or more processors configured to generate a first target sleep profile for the user based, at least in part, on the plurality of measurements and a plurality of biomarkers, the processing device being further configured to generate a plurality of stimulus parameters based, at least in part, on the target profile.
METHODS FOR PREVENTING AND TREATING MOTOR-RELATED NEUROLOGICAL CONDITIONS
Methods for preventing or treating motor-related neurological conditions include using ocular light therapy in connection with a conventional therapy for a motor-related neurological condition, such as a drug regimen, to adjust levels of melatonin and/or dopamine in the body of a subject. The ocular light therapy may include elevated levels of blue-green light or green light (e.g., light within a wavelength range of 460 nm to 570 nm, 490 nm to 570 nm, about 520 nm to 570 nm, etc.). The ocular light therapy may also include reduced levels of amber, orange and/or red light. Methods for diagnosing motor-related neurological conditions include use of ocular light therapy to cause a subject to temporarily exhibit one or more symptoms of any motor-related neurological condition to which the subject is predisposed, or which the subject may already be experiencing. A temporary increase in such symptoms may be effected by ocular administration of light including increased amounts of amber, orange and/or red light.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ADMINISTERING, MONITORING AND CONTROLLING BIOMIMETIC SLEEP
Systems and methods for inducing natural sleep in a subject is provided. In some aspects, the method includes inducing a first sleep state; monitoring a first plurality of characteristics of a brain of the subject to verify the subject is in the first sleep state; inducing a second sleep state after the subject has been in the first sleep state for a predetermined amount of time; and monitoring a second plurality of characteristics of the brain of the subject to verify the subject is in the second sleep state.
SYSTEMS, METHODS AND DEVICES FOR PAIRED PLASTICITY
Systems, methods and devices for paired training include timing controls so that training and neural stimulation can be provided simultaneously. Paired trainings may include therapies, rehabilitation and performance enhancement training. Stimulations of nerves such as the vagus nerve that affect subcortical regions such as the nucleus basalis, locus coeruleus or amygdala induce plasticity in the brain, enhancing the effects of a variety of therapies, such as those used to treat tinnitus, stroke, traumatic brain injury and post-traumatic stress disorder.
System and method of improving sleep
A method of transplanting a sleep state of a first subject (donor) to a second subject (recipient) comprising: capturing a sleep state of the first subject represented by brain activity patterns; and transplanting the sleep state of the first subject in the second subject by inducing the brain activity patterns in the second subject.
METHOD AND APPARATUSES FOR MODULATING SLEEP BY CHEMICAL ACTIVATION OF TEMPERATURE RECEPTORS
Apparatuses (including devices, kits, and systems) and methods to non-invasively and chemically (rather than thermally) activate thermoreceptors to modulate sleep. For example, described herein are apparatuses including topical compositions that stimulate thermoreceptors on the subject's skin (e.g., forehead, hands, and/or feet) for a period of time to induce a sensation of temperature (heat or cold) without significantly altering the person's actual skin temperature to improve sleep quality, including reducing sleep-onset latency, enhancing depth of sleep, and/or extending the amount of time a subject sleeps. The subject may be suffering from insomnia or some other sleep disorder.
SLEEP AND WAKE ENVIRONMENT APPARATUS
A sleep and wake environment apparatus includes an aromatherapy diffuser; a speaker; a light source; a clock; and a user interface with controls and a display. Each of these elements are in communication with a control computing device configured to control the aromatherapy diffuser, the speaker, the light source, and the clock automatically and without contemporaneous user input.
A MULTI-USERS MEDICAL CANNABIS DISPENSER
Provided is a multi-users cannabis dispenser comprising: a vessel comprising at least two compartments, each compartment configured to contain at least one cannabis composition comprising at least one active component; at least one dispensing unit associated with said at least one compartment, said dispensing unit configured to controllably release from said compartments a metered dose of said composition contained therein; a control unit comprising a data input unit configured to receive data relating to a specific user, data indicating a metered dose of one or more said cannabis compositions to be administered to said specific user and/or to receive data relating to a specific cannabis composition, data indicating a metered dose of said specific composition to be administered to said specific user and configured to control the dispensing unit to release at least one said metered dose. Further provided are methods of use of the multi-users cannabis dispenser.
SLEEP MONITORING AND SLEEP AID USAGE
A method and apparatus to improve sleep aid efficacy are provided. The method comprises monitoring the sleeping patterns of a user utilizing a non-intrusive sleep monitoring device. The method further correlates the user's sleep quality and sleep quantity with use of the sleep aid. In one embodiment, the method adjusts the sleep aid based on the sleep statistics. The efficacy of sleep aids is increased by monitoring user's sleep patterns continuously.
Methods for preventing and treating motor related neurological conditions
Methods for preventing or treating motor-related neurological conditions include using ocular light therapy in connection with a conventional therapy for a motor-related neurological condition, such as a drug regimen, to adjust levels of melatonin and/or dopamine in the body of a subject. The ocular light therapy may include elevated levels of blue-green light or green light (e.g., light within a wavelength range of 460 nm to 570 nm, 490 nm to 570 nm, about 520 nm to 570 nm, etc.). The ocular light therapy may also include reduced levels of amber, orange and/or red light. Methods for diagnosing motor-related neurological conditions include ocular administration of increased amounts of amber, orange and/or red light to cause a subject to temporarily exhibit one or more symptoms of any motor-related neurological condition to which the subject is predisposed, or which the subject may already be experiencing.
