An electronic vaporizer system includes an anesthetic sump containing anesthetic agent, a vaporizer unit that vaporizes the anesthetic agent from the sump and delivers the vaporized agent to a patient breathing circuit, and a gas sensor configured to measure end tidal concentration of the anesthetic agent and exhalation gasses from the patient. A control system is configured to receive the measured end tidal concentration of anesthetic agent and compare the measured end tidal concentration to a desired end tidal concentration to be maintained for the patient. The vaporizer unit is then automatically controlled to deliver an amount of vaporized agent to the patient based on the comparison.

A cognitive assessment system includes a computing device, a server coupled to the computing device and an eye tracking device coupled to the computing device. The computing device includes a cognitive assessment program with at least one cognitive assessment task for assessing at least one cognitive function of a user. The server includes a database. The database stores a historical task performance data of the user, a historical task performance model of the user, task performance data of a healthy population, and task performance data of a patient population. The eye tracking device is for capturing the eye movement data of the user.

A system for mapping neuromuscular junctions for botulinum neurotoxin (BoNT) injections includes a stimulation electrode and an electromyography (EMG) sensor array including EMG sensors configured to be arranged about a person's face. Each EMG sensor detects muscle activity of a facial muscle of a facial muscle group. An EMG amplifier includes a plurality of input channels. Each input channel receives data of facial muscle activity in the facial muscle group from the EMG sensor array. A computer is in communication with the EMG amplifier. A processor of the computer identifies neuromuscular junctions (NMJs) of the facial muscle group based on the data of facial muscle activity received from the EMG sensor array. The plurality of NMJs are mapped with respect to the at least one facial muscle group of the body of the person. At least one NMJ site for BoNT injection is recommended by the computer.

Provided is a detector assembly for determining a ratio of lactate to pyruvate from dialysis, said detector assembly comprising: a first pump, a dialysis probe, a first tube fluidically coupling the first pump to an inlet of the dialysis probe, an infrared (IR) detector, a second tube fluidically coupling an outlet of the dialysis probe to the IR detector, and a controller. The first pump pumps a perfusate at a first flow rate to the dialysis probe, via the first tube, and to, in turn, pump a dialysate at a second flow from the dialysis probe to the IR detector, via the second tube. The IR detector detects respective absorbances due to lactate and pyruvate in the dialysate, and the controller determines the ratio of lactate to pyruvate in the dialysate.

A body temperature measurement method applied to a wrist wearable device includes, when a body temperature of a user is measured, measuring a first temperature at a forehead of the user using a temperature sensor, and measuring a second temperature at a wrist of the user is using a second temperature sensor at a relatively close time. Through calculation, a third temperature associated with the first temperature is displayed on a display. A fourth temperature at the wrist is then measured using the second temperature sensor. When the fourth temperature is the same as the second temperature, the third temperature is displayed on the display according to the foregoing relationship.

A method of deriving depth EEG data from non-invasive 2D EEG data is described. The method receives several EEG scalp signals, each of which is produced by a contact of an EEG recording device. The method converts each EEG scalp signal into multiple frequency band signals. The method identifies a set of contacts that have similar signal fragments in frequency band signals for a particular frequency band. The method determines relative time delay in frequency band signal arrival at the set of contacts. The method determines relative radius of sphere for the set of contacts based on the relative time delay in frequency band signal arrival at the set of contacts. The method then determines a signal source location by performing trilateration on the set of contacts using locations of the set of contacts and the relative radius of sphere for the set of contacts.

A diagnostic mask and method of diagnosing are disclosed. The method includes collecting data from a plurality of sensors in a mask placed on a patient's face such that the mask covers the patient's eyes, the data representing a plurality of health signs of the patient, wherein at least one of the health signs relates to the patient's eyes; and transmitting a signal from the mask, the signal representing the data representing the plurality of health signs.

The present invention relates to a method and system for calculating eating bites of a user. The method comprises: (a) continuously measuring the electrical properties data of mastication of a user for a predetermined period of time; (b) periodically determining single eating bites according to the data obtained in step (a) through a time interval; (c) periodically storing the bites determined throughout the predetermined period of time, through a time interval.

A flexible head probe and modular head probe system that includes an optical functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) system and integrated position sensor. The head probe and modular head probe system determines physiological data based upon the optical information gathered by the fNIRS system and gathers motion and position data from the position sensor. The physiological data and motion and position data are combined to permit topographical and tomographic analyses of a user's brain tissue.

Systems and methods for managing power and data usage in a mobile electronic communications device entail detecting a sleep state of a user of the device, and entering an idle mode when the sleep state of the user is deep sleep, wherein the idle mode restricts device CPU and network activities to exclude user-centric operations. When the sleep state of the user changes from the deep sleep state, the device exits the idle mode and enters an operative state to execute any pending user-centric operations.
