MOTION DATA DISPLAY METHOD AND SYSTEM
A motion data display method and system is provided. The motion data and the reference motion data corresponding to the motion data of the user during moving of the user may be obtained; and the motion data of the user and the reference motion data may be combined with the virtual character, and the comparison between the motion data of the user and the reference motion data is intuitively displayed by using the animation of the virtual character, so that the user may intuitively find a difference between the motion data of the user and the reference motion data by observing the animation of the virtual character, so as to correct the motion during moving and move properly.
Urodynamic investigation apparatus, system and methods
A urodynamic investigation apparatus for receipt of urine from a bladder is provided. The apparatus is characterized by a tubular element, first and second fittings, and a sleeve element, for select passage of urine there through, within the tubular element. The tubular element is characterized by opposing first and second end portions, and a port. The fittings are adapted to be received by the opposing end portions of the tubular element so as to delimit an apparatus chamber. The sleeve element, suspended between the fittings within the chamber, has collapsed and open configurations. The collapsed configuration is indicative of a no urine flow condition, and the open configuration indicative of a urine flow condition, with the sleeve element urine flow condition being a function of pressure applied to the chamber via the port of the tubular element.

SYSTEMS, METHODS, AND DEVICES FOR DETECTING THE THRESHOLD OF NERVE-MUSCLE RESPONSE USING VARIABLE FREQUENCY OF STIMULATION
A method for determining a lowest stimulation threshold current level in a group of channels of a neuromonitoring device. The method includes stimulating tissue at a current level from a predetermined range of current levels as a sequence of pulses delivered at a frequency. The stimulating includes increasing the current level of each pulse in the sequence of pulses from an immediately preceding pulse by a first current increment. The method includes determining that a first evocation pulse from the sequence of pulses evokes a first muscular response. The method includes stimulating the tissue with a second evocation pulse from the sequence of pulses to evoke a second muscular response. The stimulating includes decreasing the frequency of the delivery of each pulse in the sequence of pulses and increasing the current level of each pulse in the sequence of pulses from the immediately preceding pulse by a second current increment. The method includes determining that the second evocation pulse from the sequence of pulses evokes the second muscular response.

Method and system for identification of source of chronic pain and treatment
A method for identifying and treating a neural pathway associated with chronic pain via nerve stimulation and brain wave monitoring of a mammalian brain is described. The method includes positioning a probe to stimulate a target nerve, wherein the target nerve is suspected of being a source of chronic pain; delivering a first nerve stimulation from the probe to the target nerve, wherein the first nerve stimulation is sufficient to elicit a chronic pain response in the brain; and monitoring for evoked potential activity in the brain as a result of the first nerve stimulation. The method can also include delivering second and third nerve stimulations to confirm the correct identification of the neural pathway and to treat the chronic pain, respectively. A system and apparatus for performing a procedure to identify and treat a nerve that is the source of chronic pain are also described.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR DETECTING EVOKED COMPOUND ACTION POTENTIAL (ECAP) FEATURES IN RESPONSE TO NEUROSTIMULATION
Systems and methods are disclosed for conducting spinal cord stimulation or other neurostimulation and sensing evoked compound action potential (ECAP) signals.
