An object of the present invention is to provide a garment for measuring biological information for animals, in which the electrode portion is less likely to be displaced from the body even upon a movement of an animal and the biological information can be measured accurately, and to provide a method for measuring biological information.

A garment for measuring biological information comprising a front body and a back body having a large tensile elongation EMT. Since the garment for measuring biological information has a band around a torso, it is possible to prevent the electrodes from being displaced from the body due to a movement. Further, since the connection portion between the front body and the back body of the garment for measuring biological information is made of a woven or knitted fabric that expands and contracts in the direction from the head to the tail, the electrodes are less likely to be displaced from the body even upon a great movement. Therefore, the garment for measuring biological information of the present invention can accurately measure the biological information of a moving animal.

A wearable sensor device includes a temperature and humidity sensor that measures ambient environmental information around a living body. The temperature and humidity sensor is provided on an outer wall surface of a housing or provided to be separated from the outer wall surface. The outer wall surface of the housing faces a left or right side or diagonally downward when the wearable sensor device is attached to the living body and the living body is in a standing posture.

Each conductor of a plurality of insulated conductors of a wiring harness extends between, and electrically connects, a corresponding terminal of a first electrical connector to either a corresponding terminal of an electrical connector jack of a plurality of electrical jacks located along the wiring harness, or to a corresponding terminal of a corresponding auscultatory sound-or-vibration sensor of the plurality of auscultatory sound-or-vibration sensors. The plurality of insulated conductors are organized in a plurality of distinct branches, each distinct branch originating either from the first electrical connector or from another portion of the wiring harness, and the locations of the plurality of distinct branches, in cooperation with the plurality of electrical jacks, if present, are implicitly suggestive of a corresponding location of the corresponding auscultatory sound-or-vibration sensor on a thorax of a test subject.

Disclosed is a system (100) and method (200) for 12-lead ECG recording and wireless remote monitoring. The system (100) provides a wearable ECG acquisition unit (40) recording 12-lead ECG from torso positions of electrode sensors on user's body thereby permitting unrestrained free movement during recording without compromising on accuracy achieved by conventional 12-lead ECG system. Thus, the system (100) and method (200) provides a reliable, quick to deploy, cost effective and portable alternative to bulky conventional 12-lead ECG systems and eliminates need for resorting to skilled physician every time the 12-lead ECG is to be recorded. The system (100) and method (200) is universal in use and torso placement positions, facilitating uniform acquisition of the 12-lead ECG without altering the placement positions of the electrode sensors irrespective of ECG modalities, thereby serving as a standard format for ECG recording and long term ECG monitoring.

A wearable medical includes a walking detector module with a motion sensor that is configured to detect when the patient is walking or running. In embodiments, a parameter (referred to herein as a “Bouncy” parameter) is determined from Y-axis acceleration measurements. In some embodiments, the Bouncy parameter is a measurement of the AC component of the Y-axis accelerometer signal. This detection can be used by the medical device to determine how and/or whether to provide treatment to the patient wearing the medical device. For example, when used in a WCD, the walking detector can prevent “false alarms” because a walking patient is generally conscious and not in need of a shock.

Described herein are functionalized garments that can be worn on the torso of a subject and can be configured with varying zones or areas of compressions and can provide increased signal-to-noise ratios and reduced motion artifacts in areas while allowing a substantially unimpeded freedom of motion.

An adaptive noise quantification system and associated methods are disclosed for use in the dynamic biosignal analysis of a user. In at least one embodiment, the system includes a biosignal sensor positioned and configured for obtaining and transmitting data related to a select at least one vital of the user as a biosignal, and a motion sensor positioned and configured for obtaining and transmitting data related to a motion level of the user as a motion signal. A computing device is configured for receiving and processing the biosignal and motion signal.

An apparatus for determining balance compensation includes a platform, sensors and a processor. The platform is configured for a person to stand on the platform. The sensors are coupled to the platform and measure at least one of a weight and a pressure. The processor determines a balance of the person based on the measurements of the sensors.

A medical vast and using method thereof. The medical vest has a clothe capable of surrounding the chest of a user's body, one or more vibration devices located in the clothe respectively and a motion sensor located in the clothe. Hence, when a user wears the medical vest and/or when the user actives one or more vibration devices to apply a net vibration force to the users' chest, the motion sensor may detect the user's real posture and/or both the vibration intensity and/or the vibration frequency of the vibration force applied to the user's chest. Accordingly, the user may adjust the vibration intensity and/or the vibration frequency of one or more vibration devices, also may adjust how the clothe is worn on the user's chest.

A wearable cardiac monitoring and treatment device for improved skin interface contact and easy assembly and disassembly includes a garment including an inner surface and an outer surface, ECG sensing electrodes, and at least one stiffener forming a section of the garment in proximity to one or more of the ECG sensing electrodes. The at least one stiffener is configured to resist rotation or pulling away of the one or more of the ECG sensing electrodes from a patient's torso. The device includes therapy electrodes, at least one separate module including a therapy delivery circuit, and a controller. The device includes compartments configured to receive the therapy electrodes and at least one separate module, and retention loops configured to route external wires extending between at least the therapy electrodes and at least one separate module, where the compartments and retention loops are disposed on the outer surface of the garment.
