BLOOD PRESSURE MEASUREMENT DEVICE
A blood pressure measurement device includes an annular bracelet that comes into contact with the user's wrist; a display that is disposed on the outer surface of the bracelet and includes a display surface; a camera that is disposed on the outer surface of the bracelet, has an optical axis tilted from the direction of a normal to the display surface, and captures images of the user; a pulse wave sensor that is disposed on an inner surface of the bracelet and detects a pulse wave at the user's wrist; and a processing circuit that estimates the user's blood pressure. The processing circuit calculates a first pulse wave timing from a temporal change in luminance in the cheek region in the images, determines a second pulse wave timing from the detected pulse wave, and estimates the blood pressure from a time difference between the first and second pulse wave timings.
Indicator and analytics for sensor insertion in a continuous analyte monitoring system and related methods
The present embodiments provide systems and methods for, among others, tracking sensor insertion locations in a continuous analyte monitoring system. Data gathered from sensor sessions can be used in different ways, such as providing a user with a suggested rotation of insertion locations, correlating data from a given sensor session with sensor accuracy and/or sensor session length, and providing a user with a suggested next insertion location based upon past sensor accuracy and/or sensor session length at that location.
PATIENT MONITOR PLACEMENT INDICATOR
A monitoring device for measuring one or more physiological parameters of a medical patient can include a finger clip sensor connected to a monitor. A placement indicator helps the patient to properly position the sensor. The monitor can display a message alerting the patient to reposition the sensor. The device can delay measurement until the sensor is properly positioned.
Devices utilizing fluorescent enhancement theragnosis technology
A plurality of devices that provide examination/diagnosis and/or treatment benefits to a patient are presented. The device including a plurality of light sources that provide for the emission of light in a plurality of wavelength ranges, wherein the plurality of light sources are activated by a sensor, configured to determine a proximity of the device to a patient, to control an application of a voltage to selected one of the plurality of light sources for a predetermined time period.
Physiological recording device with novel and proprietary connector
Electrodes for use in electroencephalographic recording, including consciousness and seizure monitoring applications, have novel features that speed, facilitate or enforce proper placement of the electrodes, including aligning tabs and arrowed aligning juts, color coding, and an insulating bridge between reference and ground electrodes which ensures a safe application distance between the conductive regions of the two electrodes in the event of cardiac defibrillation or to prevent shorting between the adjacent electrodes by preventing the conductive path to be shared. A method of using a set of four such electrodes is also disclosed.
