Introduced here are health management platforms able to monitor changes in the health state of a subject based on the context of digital activities performed by, or involving, the subject. Initially, a health management platform can identify a physiological response by examining physiological data associated with a subject. Then, the health management platform can identify a stimulus presented by an electronic device that provoked the physiological response by examining contextual data associated with the subject. The contextual data may be in the form of a screenshot of a computer program in use by the subject during the physiological response. In some embodiments, the health management platform prompts the subject to specify whether the physiological response is a positive physiological response that resulted in an upward shift in health or a negative physiological response that resulted in a downward shift in health.

A method and a system are provided for taking biomarker measurements of patients who have ADHD. Mathematical analysis (e.g., pattern recognition, machine learning and AI algorithms) of the biomarker measurements is used to create a unique personal prediction model and data set for an individual patient. The unique personal data set is used to diagnose and monitor a particular problem of the individual patient associated with ADHD, or to recommend a treatment for a particular problem of the individual patient associated with ADHD, or to predict an outcome of a treatment for a particular problem of the individual patient associated with ADHD.

Electronic device for providing health information based on biometric data, and control method therefor

Disclosed is an electronic device comprising a processor and at least one sensor circuit comprising at least a biometric sensor and a fatigue sensor. The processor may be configured so as to detect biometric data of an external object by means of the biometric sensor, detect fatigue data of the external object by means of the fatigue sensor if the biometric data exceeds a designated second range, and output, by means of a designated external device, a fatigue notification indicating a fatigued state if the fatigue data exceeds a designated third range. Other various embodiments identified in the description are possible.

Automated ultrasound apparatus and methods to non-invasively monitor fluid responsiveness

A fully automated ultrasound apparatus includes a sensor or probe which can be initially manually attached to a side of the neck of a patient, an ultrasound interface to control the sensor and periodically acquire raw ultrasound data, a signal and image processing system to autonomously convert the raw ultrasound data into a measurement that is useful to physicians, and a display to relay the current measurements and measurement history to provide data trends. The sensor can include one or more ultrasound transducers built into a housing. A disposable component can serve to secure the sensor to the neck of the patient and to provide a coupling medium between the sensor and the skin of the patient.
