A method and a computer program product are also provided.

A patient monitoring system, including: a bone plate configured to be secured to a bone; a plurality of sensors on the bone plate configured to: measure a parameter; transmit a data signal communicating the measured parameter value; and wherein the transmitted data signals from the plurality of sensors are time division multiplexed; and an external wireless reader including an antenna, a processor, and wireless communication radio, wherein the external wireless reader is configured to: transmit an modulated RF signal; and receive the time division multiplexed transmitted data signals from the plurality of sensors.

A monitoring system a user activity sensor to determine patterns of activity based upon the user activity occurring over time.

A sensor including electrodes, a control module and a physical layer module. The electrodes are configured to (i) attach to a patient, and (ii) receive a first electromyographic signal from the patient. The control module is connected to the electrodes. The control module is configured to (i) detect the first electromyographic signal, and (ii) generate a first voltage signal. The physical layer module is configured to: receive a payload request from a console interface module or a nerve integrity monitoring device; and based on the payload request, (i) upconvert the first voltage signal to a first radio frequency signal, and (ii) wirelessly transmit the first radio frequency signal from the sensor to the console interface module or the nerve integrity monitoring device.

The present invention relates generally to systems, devices, and methods for tracking compliance of orthodontic appliance usage, and more specifically to systems, devices, and methods for tracking compliance of orthodontic appliance usage using a compliance device and/or a light therapy apparatus. The invention provides compliances device that can be configured to be disposed within a patient's mouth. In some embodiments, the compliance device can comprise a sensor configured to detect an input associated with whether an orthodontic appliance is at least partially disposed within the patient's mouth at a first time and at a second time, with the second time being subsequent to the first time.

An active implantable medical device (IMD) which, in operation: repeatedly senses a body temperature of a person having the IMD implanted therein; stores the sensed body temperature values; repeatedly senses a cardiac physiologic parameter of the person; stores the sensed cardiac physiologic parameter values; determines whether one of the body temperature values exceeds a predefined body temperature threshold; if an excess is determined, the IMD: determines whether one of the cardiac physiologic parameter values exceeds a predefined cardiac physiologic parameter threshold, wherein the one cardiac physiologic parameter value is determined in the same time period as the one body temperature value exceeding the body temperature threshold; classifies an infection of the person as a local infection if the one cardiac physiologic parameter value does not exceed the threshold; or classifies an infection of the person as a systemic infection if the one cardiac physiologic parameter value exceeds the threshold.

Embodiments herein relate to ear-wearable systems and devices for detecting heat stress and related methods. In an embodiment, an ear-wearable heat stress risk assessment system is included having a control circuit, a microphone, and a sensor package. The system is configured to process signals of one or more sensors of the sensor package and/or the microphone, detect dehydration symptoms, environmental conditions, and activity levels of a device wearer based on the processed signals, and determine a heat stress risk level based on detected dehydration symptoms, environmental conditions, and activity levels of the device wearer. Other embodiments are also included herein.

Methods, systems, and devices for temperature analysis are described. The method may include receiving physiological data associated with a user collected via a first set of sensors of a wearable device. The physiological data may include skin temperature data. The method may include receiving surrounding temperature data associated with an environment surrounding the user. The surrounding temperature data may be collected via the first set of sensors, a second set of sensors, or both. The method may additionally include identifying one or more physiological characteristics associated with the user based at least in part on a comparison of the skin temperature data and the surrounding temperature data, and causing a graphical user interface (GUI) of a user device to display an indication of the one or more physiological characteristics, a message or alert associated with the one or more physiological characteristics, or both.

Aspects relate to a portable device that may be used to identify a critical intensity and an anaerobic work capacity of an individual. The device may utilize muscle oxygen sensor data, speed data, or power data. The device may utilize data from multiple exercise sessions, or may utilize data from a single exercise session. The device may additionally estimate a critical intensity from a previous race time input from a user.

Systems and methods for aiding a clinician in the proper positioning, placing or otherwise locating of a non-contact detector component of a non-contact patient monitoring system are described. The systems and methods may employ a targeting aid superimposed on a display screen component of the non-contact patient monitoring system, the targeting aid being designed to assist the clinician in properly locating the non-contact detector for proper and accurate functioning of the non-contact patient monitoring system. The systems and methods described herein may also employ a bendable mounting arm to which the non-contact detector is attached such that the non-contact detector can be easily moved into the proper location when used in conjunction with the targeting aid superimposed on the display.
