Methods and systems for conditioning a signal indicative of electrosurgical unit activity are described. A hardware circuit acquires AC current from an electrosurgical unit on patient isolated circuitry and conditions the signal in either of two alternate processing methods. The processed signal is routed as input to an analog to digital converter circuit. A method for determining saturation on referential inputs and recovering inputs to an unsaturated state is also described.

Systems and methods are proposed for generating a sleep-inducing audio signal for a subject. Such concepts may aid and/or induce sleep through the provision of subject-specific (i.e. personalized) audio that is based on psychological states previously experienced by the user (e.g. in the preceding day or week). In particular, embodiments propose that sounds experienced by a subject when in a target psychological state (e.g. positive, feel-good state) may be captured and used to generate an audio signal that may have improved sleep inducing capabilities/qualities.
