Compression garment compliance
11077011 · 2021-08-03 · ·

Determining whether a compression garment is worn by a wearer of the garment by analyzing a pressure signal waveform indicative of a fluid pressure in an inflatable and deflatable bladder of the compression garment. Variance detected in the pressure signal waveform during the analysis is indicative of a change in condition of the compression garment. In one aspect the change in condition is verified using confirmatory analysis. In another aspect, the variance is one of a pressure rise and a pressure impulse. In yet another aspect, the variance is an oscillating amplitude as a function of time representative of a pulse of the wearer.

SMART WATCH FOR TREMOR MONITORING AND CONTROL
20210244316 · 2021-08-12 · ·

A smart watch for tremor monitoring and control of tremors in an extremity of a user, comprises a wearable band including a camera, a plurality of motors, an onboard communications module configured to communicate with a cloud server storing a tremor control application, and a computing system including circuitry and a processor having program instructions configured to actuate the camera to take a series of images, generate an analysis of the series of images and actuate the motors to generate tremor control vibrations based on the analysis of the series of images. The tremor control application stores a body profile and performs a high level analysis of the tremor reduction effect. Motor tuning parameters are communicated to the smart watch to improve the tremor reduction effect.

SMART WALKER SYSTEM AND METHOD OF USE THEREOF
20210236376 · 2021-08-05 ·

A smart walker system includes a walker attachment and a user proximity sensor. The walker attachment is configured to be attached to the medical assistance walker. The user proximity sensor is in communication with the walker attachment on the medical assistance walker for determining a proximity of the user proximity sensor relative to the walker attachment on the medical assistance walker. The user proximity sensor is configured to be worn by a user. The user proximity sensor is configured to detect when the user moves away from the medical assistance walker a set distance. Wherein, when the user wearing the user proximity sensor moves the set distance away from the walker attachment on the medical assistance walker, the smart walker system is configured to alert the user to use the medical assistance walker.

EMERGENCY MEDICAL SERVICES SMART WATCH
20210169346 · 2021-06-10 ·

Systems and methods related to the field of cardiac resuscitation, and in particular to devices for assisting rescuers in performing cardio-pulmonary resuscitation (CPR), are described herein. In one aspect, a method for managing cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) treatment to a person in need of emergency assistance includes monitoring a parameter that indicates a fatigue level of a rescuer and providing an indication that a different person should perform the CPR component if the rescuer is exhibiting fatigue.

DEVICE AND METHOD FOR MONITORING PATIENT COMPLIANCE

Disclosed are a joint manipulation device and system for increasing the range of motion of a joint of a user, and monitoring the compliance of the user's operation of the joint manipulation device to standards or guidelines set by a monitoring entity. Certain sensors associated with the joint manipulation device may cause an indicator to transmit an alert to the user based on whether or not the device is sufficiently engaged with a limb or joint of the user to be considered in compliance. Additionally, progress data associated with the range of motion of the user's joint may be obtained by a sensor assembly and transmitted to one or more systems associated with the device system. Progress data obtained during a period of non-compliant use of the device may be excluded from the transmitted data, thereby generating a set of compliant progress data for accurate analysis of device effectiveness.
