System and method for enhanced training using a virtual reality environment and bio-signal data
A training apparatus has an input device and a wearable computing device with a bio-signal sensor and a display to provide an interactive virtual reality (“VR”) environment for a user. The bio-signal sensor receives bio-signal data from the user. The user interacts with content that is presented in the VR environment. The user interactions and bio-signal data are scored with a user state score and a performance scored. Feedback is given to the user based on the scores in furtherance of training. The feedback may update the VR environment and may trigger additional VR events to continue training.
Administering Exposure Treatments of a Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Using a Smartphone App
A method for administering an exposure treatment of a cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) uses a mobile app and a server application. A user state of a patient undergoing a first step of the CBT based on the patient's condition during the first step is detected by sensors of the patient's smartphone. A situational state of the patient's surroundings during the first step is detected by the smartphone sensors. The mobile app determines whether the patient has made progress performing the first step. A user prompt is generated based on the user state and situational state. A next step of the CBT is configured based on the user state and situational state. The characteristics of the user prompt are generated using machine learning based on past task completions by the patient and other users so as to increase the likelihood that the patient will complete the next step of the CBT.
System and apparatus for fertility and hormonal cycle awareness
A system and apparatus is disclosed for indicating a window of fertility based on the fertility awareness method (FAM).
WEARABLE SURGICAL ROBOT ARM
The present disclosure relates to a wearable surgical robot arm comprising: a base configured to move together with an arm of an operator; a motion part that has a plurality of accommodating grooves in which a surgical instrument is be mounted and that is moveably installed on the base such that one of the plurality of accommodating grooves is positioned in a first position; a shaft that is disposed such that the shaft moves forward or backward to selectively penetrate the accommodating groove positioned in the first position at a rear of the motion part; a first driver that moves the motion part such that one surgical instrument selected from the surgical instruments mounted in the plurality of accommodating grooves moves to the first position; a second driver that moves the shaft to move the surgical instrument positioned in the first position to a second position positioned in front of the first position; and a third driver that provides driving force to the surgical instrument that moved to the second position.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR INDICATION AND SELECTION OF REGION OF INTEREST FOR X-RAY DOSE ADJUSTMENT
A system and a method by which multiple regions or objects of interest can be indicated within an X-ray image, from which a user can select a primary region or object of interest and accordingly adjust the appropriate X-ray dose for obtaining a better quality image of the selected regions or objects of interest.
NURSING BED SYSTEM AND NURSING BED POSTURE CHANGING DEVICE
A nursing bed system includes a nursing bed and a nursing bed posture changing device. The nursing bed posture changing device includes care recipient data acquiring circuitry that acquires care recipient data containing at least one of voice data of a care recipient who lies on the nursing bed, and image data obtained by imaging the care recipient, bed posture information generating circuitry that generates bed posture mode information according to a demand by the care recipient based on the care recipient data, and posture changing circuitry that changes the posture of the nursing bed based on the bed posture mode information.

SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR OPERATING A TOUCHSCREEN IN AN ELECTROSURGICAL GENERATOR
A system and method for operating a touchscreen of a gas-enhanced electrosurgical generator. The generator has a display module and a primary controller. The display module has a plurality of touch sensors, a PCB power relay and a CPU. The method comprises selecting electrosurgery settings through a graphical user interface, activating through an input device plasma delivery from the gas-enhanced electrosurgical generator, disabling the plurality of touch sensors through software running on the primary controller, disconnecting power from the plurality of touch sensors with the PCB power relay in response to the disabling of the plurality of touch sensors, applying power to an electrode in the plasma accessory connected to the gas-enhanced electrosurgical generator, and de-activating through an input device plasma delivery from the gas-enhanced electrosurgical generator to the plasma accessory connected to the gas-enhanced electrosurgical generator.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR VOICE-CONTROL OF ELECTROSURGICAL SYSTEM
A system and method for voice control of operating room electrical equipment. The system comprises an electrosurgical generator a controller with a memory, a graphical user interface controlled by said controller, a power module, a field programmable gate array, and a voice recognition module connected to said field programmable gate array, a data storage connected to said controller in said electrosurgical generator; and electrical operating room equipment connected to said voice recognition module, wherein said electrical operating room equipment is configured to receive and decrypt encrypted commands from said voice recognition module. The electrical operating room equipment may said electrosurgical generator or a robotic surgical system or other electrical equipment in an operating room. The connection between said electrical operating room equipment and said voice recognition module may be wireless. The connection between said data storage and said controller in said electrosurgical system also may be wireless.
Systems, apparatus, and methods for documenting code blue scenarios
An apparatus may be configured for providing feedback to caregivers during a code blue scenario when adhered to the chest of a subject undergoing resuscitation by sensing and transmitting information associated with the code blue scenario. Such information may include one or more of vital signs of the subject during resuscitation, information associated with chest movements of the subject during resuscitation, and audio information from an environment of the subject during resuscitation. One or more processors may generate real-time feedback for communication to the caregivers during the code blue scenario based on the sensed and transmitted information.
