In a method for adjusting a driving force for moving a patient table of a magnetic resonance apparatus, position-relevant and/or drive-relevant patient data is provided, a minimum required driving force is determined based on the provided position-relevant and/or drive-relevant patient data, the minimum required driving force for moving the patient table is determined, and the patient table is moved with the minimum required driving force.

A universal respiratory detector for detecting a respiratory gas. The universal respiratory detector may include a plurality of layers with a visual indicator to quickly and reversibly change color to detect a respiratory gas parameter such as carbon dioxide. The color change may be visible from both sides of the detector. In some examples, the respiratory detector may be a biocompatible and conformable sticker for mounting on a person's face or an oxygen delivery device.

A micro-environment controllable temperature and humidity system evaluates heat and humidity comfort level of textiles. The system includes a bed-shaped partitioned platform having one or more non-temperature and humidity-controllable sections and one or more temperature and humidity controllable sections. One or more temperature and humidity control machine is in communication with the one or more temperature and humidity control sections for supplying air with a pre-set temperature and humidity. A central controller electrically is connected to the one or more temperature and humidity control machines. The micro-environment controllable temperature and humidity system can perform partitioned control on the temperature and humidity in a micro-environment during sleep, and is used for studying the influence of the temperature and humidity on the comfort level of different regions of a subject.

A stool monitoring and health guidance system is provide with a color sensor and an image sensor mountable at the toilet seat of a toilet to detect the color and physical properties of stools deposited in the toilet in bowel movement. The system provides a sanitary and convenient means to examine the stool without having to obtain a specimen from the stool directly, and providing guidance to the user of possible health issues.

A magnetically shielded room, that is capable of suppressing positional deviation of a measuring tool in an internal space, has an upper shielding body, a side periphery shielding body, and a lower shielding body, which form a magnetically shielded internal space of the magnetically shielded room. A pedestal has a higher rigidity than the lower shielding body, and is located on an under surface of the lower shielding body. First and second supporting members are located on and stand erect from the pedestal. The first and second supporting members penetrate the lower shielding body and extend into the internal space.

The invention includes a system to determine body surface area (BSA) or volume of an animal that can be used to determine a health status of the animal. The system has a plurality of integrated measuring devices such as radar or infrared sensors. The measuring devices are mounted within a confined space. A plurality of measurements is taken along vertically oriented sections or slices of the animal as the animal passes by the confined space. The measurements are combined and numerically converted to BSA or volume estimations. The health status can be derived as a direct relation to BSA or volume, or changes in BSA or volume over a selected time period.

A resuscitation chamber apparatus for administering hyperbaric oxygen to a patient. More particularly, the present invention relates to a hyperbaric oxygen compatible critical care chamber apparatus preferably for use in emergency departments and/or prehospital ambulance management of patients. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the apparatus is a resuscitation monoplace hyperbaric chamber preferably used in critical care management of acutely ill or injured patients in prehospital emergency medical services (EMS) settings or in hospital emergency departments. The apparatus preferably allows a critical care shock or arrested patient to be pressurized preferably without compromise for application of best medical equipment, medications and human resuscitating intervention.

A health booth (10) includes a shell (20), at least one chair (30), and at least one measurement arrangement (31, 32, 33, 34) for measuring data relative to the health of a user. The booth includes: a determination apparatus (41-50) for determining, at the time of taking a measurement, at least one condition under which said measurement is taken; and a storage device for storing the measurement results in a data structure together with said condition.

Presented are systems and methods for the accurate acquisition of medical measurement data of a body part of patient. To assist in acquiring accurate medical measurement data, an automated diagnostic and treatment system provides instructions to the patient to allow the patient to precisely position a medical instrument in proximity to a target spot of a body part of patient. Based on a series of images acquired from a kiosk camera and an instrument camera, these instructions are generated. Subsequent images from instrument camera are analyzed by automated diagnostic and treatment system utilizing a database and deep convolution neural network (DCNN) to obtain measured medical data. An error threshold measurement by the automated diagnostic and treatment system may determine the accuracy of the instrument positioning and the medical measured data. The measured medical data may be communicated to a physician.
