The cradle can further include a first opening in the back wall configured to receive the first connector port and a second opening in the first sidewall configured to receive the first locking tab when the physiological monitoring device is secured to the cradle and the first locking tab is in the extended position.
BLOOD PRESSURE MONITOR ATTACHMENT ASSEMBLY
A blood pressure monitor configured to removably mount to a cuff in a substantially symmetrical position with respect to a width of the cuff can include a housing defining an interior, a first port, and a second port. The first port can: secure to a first prong of the cuff when the cuff is mounted in a first orientation; receive and secure to a second prong of the cuff when the cuff is mounted in a second orientation; and enable fluid communication between the interior and at least one of a first fluid passage within the first prong and a second fluid passage within the second prong. The second port can: secure to the second prong of the cuff when the cuff is mounted in the first orientation; and receive and secure to the first prong of the cuff when the cuff is mounted in the second orientation.
Wearable electrocardiographic monitoring technology (ECG) with an airtight container for medicines, and integrated medical monitoring system
The present invention refers to a wearable, individual, customized and different sized technology for men and women, composed of electrodes, conductive track and airtight container for medicines, coupled to one another, and a mini electrocardiogram (ECG) apparatus containing a GSM (Global System Mobile) modem and a GPS (Global Positioning System) or a Bluetooth system which, through a wireless network specification within a personal scope (Wireless Personal Area Networks—PANs) deemed as PAN-type or even WPAN, the electrical signal acquisition begins when the user press the button down. It is in the field of medical, recreational and/or sport applications, aiming at monitoring patients at high cardiovascular risk, being possible to diagnose it as soon as possible, aiming at shortening time to definite treatment of those who present acute coronary syndrome (ACS), acute myocardial infarction (AMI), acute atrial fibrillation-type (AAF) cardiac arrhythmias, and other cardiac arrhythmias or other cardiac pathologies capable to be detected by the electrocardiographic trace. Moreover the invention has tools to analyze a bunch of data—big data analytics and deeplearning—by utilizing artificial intelligence. Finally, the invention also has a module to proper administer the drug contained into the airtight container.

APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR HEARTBEAT CLASSIFICATION BASED ON TIME SEQUENCE AND MORPHOLOGY OF INTRACARDIAC AND BODY SURFACE ELECTROCARDIOGRAM (ECG) SIGNALS
Classification of heartbeats based on intracardiac and body surface electrocardiogram (ECG) signals are provided. Intracardiac ECG (IC-ECG) signals and body surface ECG (BS-ECG) signals are processed to perform heartbeat classifications. A BS annotation of BS-ECG signals reflective of a sensed heartbeat is defined, the BS annotation including a BS annotation time value. IC annotations of IC-ECG signals which reflect atrial-activity or ventricular activity of the sensed heartbeat are also defined, each IC annotation including an IC annotation time value. The IC-ECG signals are discriminated as A-activity or V-activity and IC annotations are designated as IC-A annotations or IC-V annotations, respectively. A respective A/V time sequence comparison of IC annotations reflective of the sensed heartbeat is made with one or more time sequence templates for heartbeat classification. Morphology comparisons of the BS-ECG oscillating signal segments reflective of the sensed heartbeat morphology templates for classification may also be made.
