A reliable technology for determining the masticatory side of the user is provided. First and second electromyographic waveforms respectively originating from left and right muscles related to masticatory actions of a user are acquired; a coefficient of correlation between pieces of information respectively extracted from the first and the second electromyographic waveforms is calculated as a first feature value; a second feature value is calculated from a power spectrum obtained by performing frequency analysis on the first electromyographic waveform; a third feature value is calculated from a power spectrum obtained by performing frequency analysis on the second electromyographic waveform; a learning model is generated by associating the first, second, and third feature values with a plurality of labels; and the masticatory side of the user is determined based on first, second, and third feature values calculated from a newly acquired electromyographic waveform and the learning model.

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.

The method includes: obtaining a first biological signal collected when a first audio signal in a sleep-aiding audio library is played, where the first biological signal is a biological signal of a first user; determining a sleep quality of the first user based on the first biological signal; and updating the sleep-aiding audio library based on the sleep quality of the first user, so that a sleep-aiding audio signal can be updated, to provide a proper sleep-aiding audio signal for a user, and ensure a sleep-aiding effect.

A body electrode unit includes a body electrode and a release sheet to which the body electrode is attached. The body electrode includes a first electrode configured to stimulate a muscle of a body, a second electrode, and a third electrode. The second electrode and the third electrode are configured to detect a physiological signal from the muscle that is stimulated by the first electrode. The body electrode also includes a first connection portion arranged between the first electrode and the second electrode, and a second connection portion arranged between the third electrode and one of the first electrode and the second electrode. The first connection portion has at least one first direction changing part configured to change a direction in which the first connection portion extends, such that at least one of a distance and an angle between the first electrode and the second electrode is adjustable.

A probe includes an insertion portion insertable into a body organ, a projecting portion being exposed to an outside of a body after the insertion portion is inserted into the body organ, a device mounting area onto which an external-device coupler is removably mountable, and sensing electrodes provided on the insertion portion and the device mounting area. When the insertion portion is inserted into the body organ, the sensing electrodes detect a biosignal and become conductive with coupling electrodes of the external-device coupler mounted onto the device mounting area. The probe is an electromyograph probe that detects a biosignal measurable by an electromyograph. The insertion portion and the projecting portion of the probe may be integrated or separate from each other.

Methods, systems, and apparatus for surgical equipment monitoring are disclosed. In some embodiments, an electronic health records database and a database of surgical tools is provided. At least one sensor and at least one surgical tool are used before, during, or after a surgical procedure. The at least one sensor associated with the at least one surgical tool is monitored for at least one parameter. The monitored data is compared to the expected value of that parameter for the current step in the surgical procedure from the surgical tools database. In response to determining a potential surgical complication, the system generates a notification indicating the potential surgical complication.
