A stimulation probe device including a first electrode, a stimulation module, a control module and a physical layer module. The stimulation module is configured to (i) wirelessly receive a payload signal from a console interface module or a nerve integrity monitoring device, and (ii) supply a voltage or an amount of current to the first electrode to stimulate a nerve or a muscle in a patient. The control module is configured to generate a parameter signal indicating the voltage or the amount of current supplied to the electrode. The physical layer module is configured to (i) upconvert the parameter signal to a first radio frequency signal, and (ii) wirelessly transmit the first radio frequency signal from the stimulation probe to the console interface module or the nerve integrity monitoring device.

Systems, methods, and computer program products are disclosed that can receive temperature data from at least one temperature sensor over a period of time. At least one metric of the temperature data can be calculated, which may utilize the temperature data from a particular sensor over the period of time and may be indicative of variability in the temperature data. A tissue assessment can be determined by utilizing a classifier with at least one feature input to the classifier, the feature(s) being determined from the metric(s).

A system for detecting a physiological parameter of a subject includes a sensing device attached to a patient and an interrogation device for monitoring an operation of the sensing device. The interrogation device is used to interrogate the sensing device to confirm that the sensing device is in proper operation while being attached to the patient. The interrogation device further performs user authentication and determines a type and/or extent of information that can be presented on the interrogation device based on the level of user authentication.

Support structures for positioning sensors on a physiologic tunnel for measuring physical, chemical and biological parameters of the body and to produce an action according to the measured value of the parameters. The support structure includes a sensor fitted on the support structures using a special geometry for acquiring continuous and undisturbed data on the physiology of the body. Signals are transmitted to a remote station by wireless transmission such as by electromagnetic waves, radio waves, infrared, sound and the like or by being reported locally by audio or visual transmission. The physical and chemical parameters include brain function, metabolic function, hydrodynamic function, hydration status, levels of chemical compounds in the blood, and the like. The support structure includes patches, clips, eyeglasses, head mounted gear and the like, containing passive or active sensors positioned at the end of the tunnel with sensing systems positioned on and accessing a physiologic tunnel.

Detection and identification of auditory events in distributed lighting networks is provided. Lighting fixtures or other devices in a distributed lighting network can incorporate an audio sensor (e.g., a microphone) through which auditory events (e.g., air leaks in compressed air systems, high noise events, shots fired, clapping, voice commands, etc.) are detected and measured. Through machine learning (e.g., a convolutional neural network), a type of auditory event can be identified, and action can be taken based on the type of the auditory event, such as to provide notification, alert nearby users, log events, provide sound cancelation, and so on. In some examples, the auditory event can be localized using multiple audio sensors. In some examples, a learning algorithm can fuse information from multiple sensor inputs, such as temperature sensors, cameras, occupancy sensors, light sensors, and so on.

Other populations addressed by these methods include nursing homes, office buildings, and factories as well as the general citizenry of entire cities, counties, states, and even countries at large. Further apparatus and devices include disease detection patches and disease detection bracelets for identifying the onset of an infection and for detecting the present of antibodies to such infectious diseases. Related mitigation and contact methods for several different addressed groups and large populations are also provided for these disease detection patches and bracelets.

A method for measuring the strength and variation of Ying-nutrient Qi: heating tissue to a set temperature on a site near a human meridian, and then measuring infrared radiation to calculate an obscuration ratio so that a numerical representation of the strength of Ying-nutrient Qi can be obtained. A Ying-nutrient Qi measurement system, including at least two pairs of infrared temperature sensors and contact temperature sensors, a CPU, and a storage device, wherein the contact temperature sensors is in direct contact with a human body, and every infrared temperature sensor is paired with a contact temperature sensor to measure the temperature of a site. By measurement, whether a patient has blood stasis or phlegm retention can be inferred. In addition, a fluctuation condition of Ying-nutrient Qi or the relative strength of Ying-nutrient Qi/Wei-defensive Qi of different meridians can further provide auxiliary bases for syndrome differentiation of six meridians.
