Device for treating an individual suffering from cardiac insufficiency, cardiac arrest, circulatory arrest or stroke
The invention relates to a device for treating an individual suffering from cardiac or circulatory arrest or from a stroke, comprising a blood withdrawal device (BE) that is applied to the individual (P), an analysis unit (BA) which is directly or indirectly connected to the blood withdrawal device for detecting a blood analysis result (BAE) providing at least one characteristic of the blood, directly or indirectly connected to a blood return device (BR) that is applied to the individual (P) and is designed to deliver a substance to the individual via the return device (BR).
Contactless photoplethysmography for physiological parameter measurement
Provided are systems and methods for determining a subject's physiological parameters such as heart rate, blood glucose level, variation in heart rate and/or oxygen saturation in a non-contact manner. A photoplethysmography (PPG) signal representing physiological parameter is obtained from a subject by a sensor that generates non-contact PPG signal in red, blue, green (RBG) components. The method further includes a step of analyzing the RBG components for simultaneously measuring the oxygen saturation level and any of the heart rate, blood glucose level or variation in heart rate of the subject.
Regional oximetry pod
A regional oximetry pod drives optical emitters on regional oximetry sensors and receives the corresponding detector signals in response. The sensor pod has a dual sensor connector configured to physically attach and electrically connect one or two regional oximetry sensors. The pod housing has a first housing end and a second housing end. The dual sensor connector is disposed proximate the first housing end. The housing at least partially encloses the dual sensor connector. A monitor connector is disposed proximate a second housing end. An analog board is disposed within the pod housing and is in communications with the dual sensor connector. A digital board is disposed within the pod housing in communications with the monitor connector.
Spectroscopic monitoring for the measurement of multiple physiological parameters
The present disclosure relates to devices, systems, methods and computer program products for continuously monitoring, diagnosing and providing treatment assistance to patients using sensor devices, location-sensitive and power-sensitive communication systems, analytical engines, and remote systems. The method of non-invasively measuring multiple physiological parameters in a patient includes collecting photoplethysmograph (PPG) signal data from a wearable sensor device, applying one or more filters to correct the signal data and extracting a plurality of features from the corrected data to determine values for blood glucose, blood pressure, SpO2, respiration rate, and pulse rate of the patient. An alert may be automatically sent to one or more computing devices when the value falls outside a custom computed threshold range for the patient. The method offers ease of usage, allows continuous real-time monitoring of the patient in any setting for timely intervention, and results in improved accuracy of the signal data.
Techniques for Non-Invasive Determination of Estimated Cardiac Output During Dialysis Treatment
Techniques and apparatuses for determining an estimated cardiac output for a patient during dialysis treatment are described. In one embodiment, for example, an apparatus may include a memory and logic coupled to the memory. The logic may be configured to determine an upper body oxygen consumption for a patient, determine, during a dialysis process: a hemoglobin concentration and a venous oxygen saturation measured via an optical blood monitor operably coupled to an extracorporeal circuit of a dialysis system performing the dialysis process,; an arterial oxygen saturation measured via a pulse oximeter operably coupled to the extracorporeal circuit; an arterial-venous oxygen content difference based on the arterial oxygen saturation and the venous oxygen saturation; and an upper body blood flow (UBBF) as (upper body oxygen consumption)/(arterial-venous oxygen content difference), and determine a treatment recommendation based on the upper body blood flow. Other embodiments are described.

A system includes a cuvette including a cuvette body forming a substantially planar exterior surface and having a sensor window defined within the substantially planar exterior surface. The cuvette further includes a probe retention structure extending from the cuvette body. The system includes a probe with a probe body and a protrusion that is removably coupled to the probe retention structure.
Health Sticker: A Modular Adhesive Platform Monitoring Vital Signals
Systems and methods for medical monitoring devices are provided. Various embodiments include a monitoring device platform. The platform may adhere to a smartphone and house one or more medical monitoring devices to accommodate for one or more health conditions. The medical monitoring devices may be interchangeable and the types of medical monitoring devices on the platform is customizable. The platform may include Bluetooth® functionality and is compatible with smart phones or other smart devices. Medical information collected by the platform is transmitted to the smart phone for viewing by the user. The medical information may be processed by a machine learning engine and can be used to highlight relevant information within an action plan created by a medical professional. Individual medical devices can slide and lock into the platform and may be used while the phone is in use.
REGIONAL OXIMETRY USER INTERFACE
A regional oximetry system has a display and at least one processor causing a plurality of views to be displayed on the display, each configured to occupy at least a portion of the display. The views are adapted to present data responsive to at least one physiological signal. A first sensor port is configured to receive at least a first physiological signal representative of a regional tissue oxygenation level, and a second sensor port is configured to receive at least a second physiological signal representative of an arterial oxygen saturation level. One view presents a first trend graph of the first physiological signal and a second trend graph of the second physiological signal. An area between the first trend graph and the second trend graph can include a differential analysis of regional-to-central oxygen saturation.
PATCH-TYPE WEARABLE DEVICE
A patch-type wearable device includes a circuit layer including a light emitting element and a light receiving element, a wireless communication module mounted on the circuit layer and configured to communicate with another device, and a passive radiation layer constituting an upper layer of the circuit layer and exhibiting passive radiation characteristics.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR MONITORING AN ANALYTE OR PARAMETER FOR A PATIENT
A sensor system includes a probe, and a photon source configured to direct photons at the probe. The probe can emit light in response to receiving photons. The sensor system can include a photodetector configured to detect the light emitted from the probe, and a configured to cause the photon source to emit photons according to a first time-varying intensity profile having a first frequency. The controller can be configured to receive optical data from the photodetector based on the interaction between the light emitted from the probe and the photodetector. The optical data can include a second time-varying intensity profile having a second frequency. The second frequency can be substantially the same as the first frequency. The controller can be configured to determine a difference in phase between the first time-varying intensity profile and the second time-varying intensity profile, and generate a report based on the difference in phase.
