A power-optimized eco-system for tracking a user's health comprises: one or more wearable remote sensors, each wirelessly communicating only with one wearable central sensor; a portable device readily accessible to the user; and a cloud platform. Each sensor is configured to measure data indicative of one or more physiological parameters. The central sensor is configured to receive and subsequently process data measured by each remote sensor, to process data measured by the central sensor, and to generate corresponding instructions. The portable device comprises: a receiver wirelessly receiving the processed data and instructions from the central sensor; a processor running a mobile application handling the processed data and instructions; and a transmitter. The cloud platform is configured to: receive the processed data from the transmitter; analyze the received processed data; and transmit the results of the analysis to at least one of the portable device and an authorized healthcare entity.

A system for detecting strokes includes a sensor device configured to obtain physiological data from a patient, for example brain activity data. A computing device communicatively coupled to the sensor device is configured to receive the physiological data and compare it with reference data. The reference data can be patient data from an opposite brain hemisphere to the hemisphere being interrogated or the reference data can be non-patient data from stroke and normal patient populations. Based on comparison of the physiological data and the reference data, the system indicates whether the patient has suffered a stroke.

Implantable and wearable devices and system for transmitting signals ultrasonically through biological tissue are implemented based on an Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) platform software and hardware architecture. The devices are size-, energy-, and resource-constrained and implement ultrasonic communication protocols and communicate with each other through ultrasound.

Exosuit systems and methods according to various embodiments are described herein. The exosuit system can be a suit that is worn by a wearer on the outside of his or her body. It may be worn under the wearer's normal clothing, over their clothing, between layers of clothing, or may be the wearer's primary clothing itself. The exosuit may be assistive, as it physically assists the wearer in performing particular activities, or can provide other functionality such as communication to the wearer through physical expressions to the body, engagement of the environment, or capturing of information from the wearer.

A vapor-based ablation method mitigates constriction of the airways for the treatment of asthma and COPD. A vapor ablation catheter is advanced along the airways, through the airway wall, and to an extra-airway target tissue. The position of the catheter is assessed to determine whether the catheter is in contact with the target tissue. In embodiments, the distal energy delivery section of the catheter is manipulated to contact an exterior surface of the target tissue, or to enter the target tissue. Once the position is confirmed, vapor is delivered to the target tissue through an egress port with a sufficient amount of energy to ablate the target tissue. The target tissue may vary and include smooth muscle surrounding the airways, and nerves that control the smooth muscle. Methods for treating lung cancer are also described including delivering a vapor at lung tumors and growths, and blood vessels feeding the lung tumors and growths.
