Noninvasive blood glucose measurement method and apparatus
A blood glucose measurement apparatus includes: a control unit configured to determine a user's blood glucose level based on a concentration of body fluid secreted from the user; and a biometric information acquisition unit configured to acquire biometric information indicating a status of a user's autonomic nervous system. The control unit is configured to correct the determined blood glucose level based on the biometric information.
PREDICTIVE USE OF QUANTITATIVE IMAGING
The present disclosure provides systems and methods for predicting a disease state of a subject using ultrasound imaging and ancillary information to the ultrasound imaging. At least two quantitative measurements of a subject, including at least one measurement taken using ultrasound imaging, as part of quantified information can be identified. One of the quantitative measurements can be compared to a first predetermined standard, included as part of ancillary information to the quantified information, in order to identify a first initial value. Further, another of the quantitative measurements can be compared to a second predetermined standard, included as part of the ancillary information, in order to identify a second initial value. Subsequently, the quantitative information can be correlated with the ancillary information using the first initial value and the second initial value to determine a final value that is predictive of a disease state of the subject.
Method and Apparatus for Non-Invasively Monitoring Analytes in Domesticated Animals
A device and method for noninvasively monitoring biofluids of an animal provides measuring physical parameters of an analyte with a device located within an oral cavity of the animal.
Physiological method to regulate Immune and Endocrinal systems to cure Cancers, blood and neurological diseases.
The Invention of a method of Closing an Orifice located right behind the Epiglottis under the vocal cords unlocks the keys of Immune System and adjusts the Endocrine system. This Orifice is responsible of letting Saliva streaming abnormally into capillaries to imbue them with extra water and inhibiting digested nutrients of Plasma to enter capillaries due to deregulation of Starling Forces. A phenomenon that damages capillaries membranes by creating perforations and reducing the functioning capacity of the lymphatic system and T, B and NK Cells, responsible of enhancing the Immune System. Closing this Orifice will drain out Extra water (Saliva) of capillaries and regulate Starling forces to enable nutrients to enter bloodstream and to increase cells Metabolism, regulate hormones secretion, enable the maturation of NK cells to kill cancers, regulate blood sugar, regulate blood pressure, repair brain's neurons and reproduce new cells to replace defected ones.
Diabetes control using postprandial feedback
Disclosed is a postprandial glucose-measuring device for preventing the development of or reversing T2D. Included are methods for using the device as well as better use for invasive and noninvasive glucose meters. Further disclosed are novel exercise-sensitizing compositions useful for managing blood glucose levels in Type-2 diabetics with minimal risk of hypoglycemia. The disclosed glucose meters allow a user to also measure exercise and meal sizeall with relatively instant feedbackmore effectively than having to track the complexity posed by labels, glycemic index and calories. Also disclosed is integration of glucose-measuring devices with smartphones and health monitoring technology to make possible safe and effective interpretation of postprandial glucose readings by a patient to control or reverse Type-2 diabetes.
DEVICE AND SYSTEM FOR SENSING MEDICALLY RELEVANT INFORMATION FROM THE MOUTH
An intraoral multisensor device includes a mouthpiece, a plurality of sensors at least one of attached to or integrated with the mouthpiece, and a data communications unit configured to receive signals from the plurality of sensors. The mouthpiece has a form to permit stable arrangement at least partially within a person's mouth such that it can remain for hands-free sensing of a plurality of biological parameters. Also, an intraoral multisensor system includes an intraoral multisensor device and a data processing device adapted to communicate with the intraoral multisensor device.
Salvia assessing method, device, and system
Various embodiments of a swab device, system, and method are provided for measuring and assessing saliva flow in the mouth of a person. In one embodiment, a system includes a swab device and a measuring device. The swab device includes a handle portion and a swab portion, the handle portion being elongated to extend between a proximal end and a distal end. The swab portion is coupled to a distal portion of the handle portion and is sized and configured to collect saliva from the mouth. The measuring device is sized and configured to measure an amount of the saliva collected with the swab portion, the measuring device including a nesting portion integrated therewith. Such nesting portion of the measuring device is sized and configured to receive the proximal end of the handle portion of the swab device to measure the saliva collected therewith.
Personalized healthcare P4 drug monitoring system and method
The claimed invention provides real-time and subsequent analysis personalized user based health, wellness and pharmaceutical and illicit drug detection information. Non-invasive techniques utilize saliva for body levels of wellness indicators and pharmaceutical and illicit drug ingestion which are coordinated over time. Saliva captured on sample strips are real-time indicator reviewed and subsequently analyzed using traditional analytical chemistry techniques including liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (LC/MS) and coordinated with time of administration with optional genetic sequence analysis to confirm related disease conditions. By using P4 (Participatory, Personalized, Predictive, and Preventive) health management techniques the patient determines if the pharmaceutical is having the correct and desired effect for maximum therapeutic benefit. While illustrative embodiments detecting Metformin and Keppra are provided the system has broad pharmaceutical and illicit drug monitoring applicability.
Device and Method for Equine Condition Monitoring
An equine condition monitoring device and method is provided which employs one or more sensors operatively engaged upon the body of a horse during exercise, to gather and store electronic signals correlating to physiological characteristics of the horse during exercise. The electronic signals may be input to software to provide graphic depictions such as video displays or printed depictions showing the physiological characteristics being monitored at any point in time for the duration of exercise of a horse.
Detecting Substances Using A Wearable Oral Device
Systems and methods for detecting substances using a wearable oral device are described. For example, a wearable device is described comprising a mouth guard, a sensor coupled to the mouth guard and being configured to detect chemical signals, and a transmitter coupled to the sensor and being configured to transmit the detected chemical signals to a receiver. In another example, a wearable device is described comprising a bond being configured to be removably attachable to a tooth of a user, a sensor coupled to the bond and being configured to detect chemical signals, and a transmitter coupled to the sensor and being configured to transmit the detected chemical signals to a receiving device.
