A remotely-interfaceable extended wear electrocardiography and physiological sensor monitor recorder is provided. A sealed housing forms on a bottom surface a cavity shaped to accommodate an upward projection of a battery compartment formed on a non-conductive receptacle of a disposable extended wear electrode patch and includes a set of electrical contacts that protrude from the bottom surface and are arranged in alignment with electrical pads provided on the non-conductive receptacle. Electronic circuitry is provided within the sealed housing and includes an externally-powered micro-controller operable to execute under micro programmable control. An electrocardiographic front end circuit is electrically interfaced to the micro-controller. A wireless transceiver electrically interfaces with the micro-controller and externally-powered flash memory is electrically interfaced with the micro-controller and operable to store samples of the electrocardiographic signals.

A system and method for monitoring the blood pressure of a patient that allows for a device sensor to be recalibrated according to atmospheric pressure without removing the device sensor from inside the patient. This permits quickly monitoring the blood pressure of a patient if a re-zero is needed. The invention has a blood pressure monitor (BPM) that obtains an atmospheric pressure observation. The atmospheric pressure observation is adjusted and stored to memory as a zero value. The zero value is retrieved to recalibrate the system and method if a device sensor has been disconnected from and reconnected to the same or a different BPM, the patient has been moved such that the surroundings have been altered to make it necessary to recalibrate according to atmospheric pressure, and/or the device sensor has been connected to a different patient care monitor.

Here provided are systems and methods for monitoring bladder and/or abdominal pressures, and a bladder function recovery device. In the systems and methods, the bladder pressure can be detected in real time with a bladder pressure detection unit that is communicated with a urinary catheter. In addition, the abdominal pressure can also be obtained in real time according to the corresponding relationship between the bladder pressure and the abdominal pressure. Furthermore, the bladder function recovery device can be used for bladder function recovery for patients in need.

Parameters extracted from high definition manometric measurements of the pharynx and upper esophagus at preidentified locations and times are applied to a supervised learning machine trained using x-ray fluoroscopy data to provide diagnostic information comparable to that of x-ray fluoroscopy without radiation exposure.

A calibration system for a pulsed phase-lock loop ultrasound measurement system comprising an apparatus having a compartment for holding a pressure sensitive liquid. The compartment has an opening by which a flow of the pressure sensitive liquid may be controlled. A sensor arranged relative to the compartment to receive ultrasonic signals that reflect off one or more inner surfaces of the compartment. The system includes a processing device for receiving an integrated error signal output by the sensor based on pressure changes of the pressure sensitive liquid responsive to a change in flow of pressure sensitive liquid between the source and the compartment.

Medical devices are provided, comprising a medical device and a sensor.

Methods, systems and devices for evaluating the integrity of a uterine cavity. A method comprises introducing transcervically a probe into a patient's uterine cavity, providing a flow of a fluid (e.g., CO2) through the probe into the uterine cavity and monitoring the rate of the flow to characterize the uterine cavity as perforated or non-perforated based on a change in the flow rate. If the flow rate drops to zero or close to zero, this indicates that the uterine cavity is intact and not perforated. If the flow rate does not drop to zero or close to zero, this indicates that a fluid flow is leaking through a perforation in the uterine cavity into the uterine cavity or escaping around an occlusion balloon that occludes the cervical canal.

Wireless intracranial monitors are provided. The wireless intracranial monitors comprise a main body, a wireless transceiver, a processing module, and a sensing module, in which the sensing module contains a catheter. On the catheter, a pressure sensor is configured to detect deformation of the catheter or a diaphragm connected to the pressure sensor. The detected deformation is then transmitted to the processing module through an in-catheter wire.

A cast equipment including a fixed element, a filling device with a first site fastened to the fixed element, and a pressure sensor attached to the filling device is disclosed in this application. The pressure sensor is able to detect and collect pressure data, and the fixed element has a first container and a shape-retaining moldable material inside the first container. The present application provides an equipment to detect a pressure data to a casted region. A method for using the cast equipment is also provided in this application.
