A removable wearable device sleeve includes a sleeve body, one or more sensors, and an interface for operative communication with the wearable device. A removable sleeve includes a sleeve body having a front element having a first aperture, a back element having a second aperture, a tubular element having a first end and a second end with a third aperture, and one or more back elements define a cavity to encase an earpiece, an interface, and a sensor, wherein the sensor communicates sensor readings to the wearable device through the interface. A method of placing a sensor configured to communicate with a wearable device onto the wearable device includes providing a removable sleeve and inserting the wearable device through the first aperture of the front element into the cavity of the removable sleeve to provide a removable wearable device sleeve.
SYSTEMS FOR ASSESSING AND CORRECTING BASELINE PRESSURE INSTABILITY OF MEDICAL PRESSURE SENSORS
Described herein are systems, devices, and methods to assess and correct for instability of baseline pressure of pressure sensors applied for measuring pressures inside a human body or body cavity, such as intracranial pressure (ICP) and arterial blood pressure (ABP). The present disclosure includes systems for assessing instability of baseline pressure by computing differences in single pressure wave parameters between single pressure waves, calculating pressure stability levels, determining differences between pressure stability levels and creating baseline pressure indicator plots. The baseline pressure indicator plots define instability of baseline pressure as a function of defined thresholds applied to parameters of the pressure stability levels. The disclosure also provides means for correcting mean pressure caused by baseline pressure instability.
