Systems and Methods for determining a physiological parameter are disclosed. The physiological sensing device can measure a physiological parameter, determine a mood based on the physiological parameter, and render one or more songs associated with the mood.

An alarm indicator (4) is provided with a light guiding member (41), a first light source (42) and a transmissive member (43). The light guiding member (41) extends in a first direction that is parallel to a display screen in which medical information is displayed. The first light source (42) faces an end face (41a) of the light guiding member (41) in the first direction. The transmissive member (43) covers the light guiding member (41) from a second direction intersecting with the first direction. The light guiding member (41) is provided with a light reflecting portion and an outer face (41d). The light reflecting portion extends in the first direction and reflects the light incident from the end face (41a) at least toward the second direction intersecting with the first direction. The light reflected by the reflecting portion is emitted from the outer face (41d) while being diffused.

The head-position sway measuring device (D) includes a touch panel (1a) that gives the instruction to open or close eyes, an acceleration sensor (2a) that measures a displacement of a head position, and a sway recognition unit (1b) that recognizes a head-position sway value based on the displacement of the head position. The acceleration sensor (2a) measures a first measurement value, which is a measurement value obtained in the eye-open state, and then measures a second measurement value, which is a measurement value obtained in the eye-closed state. The sway recognition unit (1b) recognizes the head-position sway value based on the first measurement value and the second measurement value.

In various examples, a cognitive load of a user may be inferred. Motion sensor data indicative of head movement of the user may be generated with a motion sensor disposed adjacent a head of the user. The motion sensor data may be analyzed to infer a feature of a gait of the user. The user's cognitive load may be inferred based on the feature of the gait.

A display device including a display panel that displays an image, an input sensor disposed on the display panel, and a readout circuit that receives sensing signals from the input sensor and outputs a moisture level signal, in a skin measurement mode. The readout circuit divides the input sensor into a plurality of blocks, selects a valid sensing block based on the sensing signals from the plurality of blocks, and outputs the moisture level signal based on the sensing signals from the valid sensing block.

There is provided an information processing device including an information acquisition unit that acquires information from an information providing device that provides the information related to quantitative numerical values to be grasped by the medical practitioner involved with a medical practice, an image data generation unit that generates image data related to the acquired information, and a control unit that controls an installation position of a light source irradiating drawing light having illuminance visually recognizable under a shadowless lamp or an operation state of an optical system that scans an irradiation position of the drawing light so as to draw the image data.

A medical instrument for enhancing diagnosis and treatment comprising a handle, an ablation probe extending from the handle, a catheter extending from the handle. The catheter defines a lumen and the ablation probe is located within the lumen of the catheter. A port in fluid communication with the lumen of the catheter is configured for connection to a vacuum or fluid source, and application of a vacuum or an injection of fluid creates a consistent zone of permittivity around the ablation probe.

A system and method for maintaining a patient's body temperature during and after surgical exposure is provided. A surgical, insulative cap both aids in maintaining the patient's core body temperature at an euthermic range and further incorporates a graphic display panel for providing a remote caregiver informational interface. Vital signs sensors may therefor communicate, either directly or remotely, to said informational interface and allow, access to vital signs information to the caregiver in a convenient manner that does not require diversion of attention from the patient in order to monitor.

An apparatus for making combined vestibular and somatosensory function assessments, comprising: a portable base unit comprising: a movable platform being at least partially rotatable about an axis of rotation; in use, a user stands with both feet on the movable platform; an adjustable stopping mechanism for adjusting an extent to which the movable platform can rotate in at least one direction with respect to a horizontal plane; and a controller for controlling the adjustable stopping mechanism to selectively adjust the extent to which the movable platform is rotated by one of a plurality of discrete measurable amounts based on a control signal; a visual occlusion headset worn by the user, the headset comprising a device for recording a vestibular function response in response to a vestibular function test.

A system for screening impairment of a subject includes an imaging device and a display connected to a controller, the controller configured to send a first eye test signal to the imaging device and a second eye test signal to the display to initiate an eye test, and further configured to receive an eye test feedback signal based on captured images of subject eye movement during the eye test. The controller is configured to send a first cognitive test signal to the imaging device and a second cognitive test signal to the display to initiate a cognitive test, and is further configured to receive a cognitive test feedback signal based on captured images of subject eye movement during the cognitive test. A balance sensor is connected to the controller, the controller configured to receive a balance test feedback signal from the balance sensor indicative of subject movement during a balance test. A physiological sensor is connected to the controller, the controller configured to receive a physiological activity feedback signal from the physiological sensor indicative of subject physiological activity. The controller is configured to generate an impairment indication based on the eye test feedback signal, the cognitive test feedback signal, the balance test feedback signal, and the physiological activity feedback signal. A method for screening impairment of a subject is also disclosed.
