A non-invasive system, and method for simple, quantitative screening for mTBI and other forms of mid cognitive impairment using a visuo-motor performance test (for example, a submaximal grip test) in response to visual feedback to quantitatively measure the intra-individual variability of performance metric for initial screening of patients with mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI), and other neurological disorders. The system and method can be administered in minutes, by any level of caregiver, in any environment including military in-the-field or sports on-field deployments, and is useful in screening those truly injured from those disguising or mimicking injury. In addition to screening, the system and method can be used to monitor and/or detect changes to intra-individual variability over time by comparison to a baseline, which in turn is helpful in determining estimated recovery trajectory or other related information.

Sensors include a motion sensor, a thermographic sensor, a photographic device, and a dynamometer. Each sensor transmits medical information via an integrated computer system.

A grip-strength device with detection function comprises: a grip-strength assembly comprising a first supporting piece, a second supporting piece, a rebounding element, a plurality of detection elements, a circuit element, a pull-force measuring element, and a power-supply element. The user can hold the grip-strength assembly and press the first supporting piece and the second supporting piece; and the force given by the user to the first supporting piece and the second supporting piece is measured by the pull-force measuring element; thereby detecting the user's grip force; or touching the detection elements with both hands, the circuit element will generate the detection current to enter the human body through the detection elements and then returns to the circuit element to detect the muscle mass in the human body; thereby the grip-strength assembly can have the functions of simultaneously detecting the grip strength and the body's muscle mass.

A pain monitoring and feedback system for dental procedures includes: a sensing device for taking a picture of a patient for the muscle change detection of the patient undergoing dental procedures, a heat-sensing unit for sensing the body temperature change of the patient, and a grip force-sensing unit for measuring the grip force of the patient; and a computing device for receiving data from the sensing device and outputting a signal corresponding to pain information, a control unit for analyzing at least one of the muscle change, the body temperature change and the grip force change of the patient by using the monitoring data received via the communication unit so as to estimate the pain of the patient and outputting a pain signal or controlling a procedure device according to the estimated pain, and a memory for storing data necessary for processing the control unit.

A system for detecting a problematic health situation generally includes a vehicle. The vehicle comprises a sensor configured to detect a physiological characteristic of an occupant of the vehicle, an environmental sensor configured to detect an environmental characteristic of the vehicle, and a profile generation module including a memory. The profile generation module is configured to store a physiological characteristic measurement corresponding to the occupant of the vehicle, store an environmental characteristic measurement corresponding to the vehicle, and transmit the physiological characteristic measurement and the environmental characteristic measurement. The system comprises a server configured to compare the physiological characteristic measurement to a database of physiological characteristic measurements corresponding to the occupant of the vehicle. The server is further configured to formulate a baseline for the physiological characteristic based on the comparison of the physiological characteristic measurement and historical physiological characteristic data of the occupant of the vehicle.

A device for detecting a state of a vehicle operator includes a first vibration detection unit installed on a vehicle side and configured to detect vibration, a second vibration detection unit installed on a steering part of the vehicle and configured to detect vibration, and a controller configured to process and compute input signals from the first vibration detection unit and the second vibration detection unit. The controller determines a gripping state of the steering part based on a difference between the respective input signals of the first vibration detection unit and the second vibration detection unit.

Disclosed is a wearable robotic device that can replace the standard clinical tests used in the follow-up of MS (Multiple Sclerosis) disease, can make measurements with high precision, and enables monitoring the phase of MS disease and the process of response to the treatment at frequent intervals. The device allows the patients to perform dynamic activities and contributes to the good course of the disease as it is able to stimulate when the patients deliver different performance than the healthy people normals.

A lower support type rehabilitation device for fingers is disclosed. It comprises a cover plate having a hand covering portion and a plurality of through holes; a plurality of finger supports disposed to the hand covering portion, each having a first finger base, a second finger base pivotally connected to the first finger base, two side arms and a beam disposed on the first finger base; and a traction device disposed on the hand covering portion and having a first processing module, a plurality of driving modules electrically connected to the first processing module, a plurality of pulling ropes connected to the plurality of driving modules and a plurality of pressure sensors electrically connected to the first processing module, wherein each of the plurality of pulling ropes passes through one of the plurality of through holes for fixing to the beam of the first finger base.

Improved systems and methods for improving lean muscle mass monitoring of patients and for identifying and treating at least one of Cachexia or Sarcopenia are disclosed. The system may include a dynamometer provided to patients, the dynamometer being configured to perform remote monitoring. The dynamometer may be used and data may be collected by patients without the supervision of a healthcare professional. Using the collected data, lean muscle mass may be tracked over time, to provide fast and more accurate assessment of conditions. Using such an assessment, early treatment options can be targeted to patients to avoid progression into various disease states, for examples, more severe states of at least one of Cachexia or Sarcopenia.
