WEARABLE BLOOD PRESSURE BIOSENSORS, SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR SHORT-TERM BLOOD PRESSURE PREDICTION
Wearable blood pressure biosensors, systems, and methods for short-term blood pressure predictions are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, a blood pressure prediction system is configured to provide short-term predictions of average blood pressures for future time period(s) or horizon(s) (e.g., for a coming week). The system can include models trained to predict future systolic values, diastolic blood pressure values, and/or trends. The models can be trained on data related to personalized body, health, and/or physical characteristics of the user, e.g., the current or previous blood pressure, amount of sleep, heart rate, blood glucose (BG), activity, weight, etc. In some embodiments, the models can also determine whether the blood pressure of the user will change or remain relatively constant over a period/range of time.
Method and system for indicating a breathing pattern
A method and system for indicating a breathing pattern is disclosed. The system comprises a plurality of smart wearable devices, a plurality of mobile devices, an application server and a database. The plurality of smart wearable devices is either connected to the mobile devices or directly connected to the application server. The database is connected to the application server to store the data transmitted by the smart wearable device or the mobile device. The plurality of smart wearable devices is capable of monitoring the health index and identifying the variation in health conditions of the user, in real-time and activating a suitable breathing pattern to normalize such medical condition.
DETECTING WALKING IN A WEARABLE CARDIOVERTER DEFBRILLATOR SYSTEM
A wearable medical includes a walking detector module with a motion sensor that is configured to detect when the patient is walking or running. In embodiments, a parameter (referred to herein as a “Bouncy” parameter) is determined from Y-axis acceleration measurements. In some embodiments, the Bouncy parameter is a measurement of the AC component of the Y-axis accelerometer signal. This detection can be used by the medical device to determine how and/or whether to provide treatment to the patient wearing the medical device. For example, when used in a WCD, the walking detector can prevent “false alarms” because a walking patient is generally conscious and not in need of a shock.
FIRST RESPONDER DISPATCH SYSTEM AND METHODS OF OPERATION THEREOF
A first responder dispatch system is disclosed comprising a sensing wearable configured to be worn by a first responder. The sensing wearable can comprise a wrist-worn electronic device. The sensing wearable can comprise a plurality of biometric sensors configured to measure a plurality of vital signs of the first responder. The system can comprise a server programmed to receive biometric data concerning a plurality of vital signs of the first responder measured by the sensing wearable. The server can also transmit alerts to a plurality of dispatch client devices over a plurality of secured real-time bidirectional connections concerning a status of the first responder. At least one dispatch client device can transmit a response to the server and the server can, in turn, transmit additional biometric data concerning the first responder to the dispatch client device.
Activity monitoring device with assessment of exercise intensity
Aspects relate to a portable device that may be used to identify a critical intensity and an anaerobic work capacity of an individual. The device may utilize muscle oxygen sensor data, speed data, or power data. The device may utilize data from multiple exercise sessions, or may utilize data from a single exercise session. The device may additionally estimate a critical intensity from a previous race time input from a user.
Method for providing alert of potential thyroid abnormality
Provided are a system and a computer program for managing and predicting thyrotoxicosis using a wearable device. The system for predicting thyrotoxicosis is a system for predicting thyrotoxicosis using a resting heart rate, the system including a wearable device for measuring the heart rate of a patient at regular intervals, and a bio-signal computing device for receiving heart rate information from the wearable device, the bio-signal computing device outputting a warning alarm when a resting heart rate is greater than a reference heart rate when the patient is in a normal state.
