State assessment system, diagnosis and treatment system, and method for operating the diagnosis and treatment system
A state assessment system, a diagnosis and treatment system and a method for operating the diagnosis and treatment system are disclosed. An oscillator model converts a physiological signal of a subject into a defined feature image. A classification model analyzes state information of the subject based on the feature image. An analysis model outputs a treatment suggestion for the subject based on the state information of the subject. An AR projection device projects acupoint positions of a human body onto the subject, for the subject to be treated based on the treatment suggestion.
Implantable monitoring device and method of operating the implantable monitoring device
An implantable monitoring device includes first sensors to measure state information of one or both of a posture and an activity of a user and second sensors to measure bioinformation of two or more of an electrocardiogram (ECG) of a heart of the user, a pulmonary impedance of a lung of the user, a movement of the heart, a movement of a thorax including the lung, and a respiratory quotient (RQ) of the lung, two electrodes to detect bioinformation to measure one or both of the ECG and the pulmonary impedance, an analog circuit to process the detected bioinformation to measure the one or both of the ECG and the pulmonary impedance, and a processor to monitor an abnormal state of the heart and the lung of the user based on the state information and the bioinformation.
DETERMINING AN AMOUNT OF NITRIC OXIDE
In examples, there is a method comprising receiving an esophageal gas sample at a nitric oxide sensor, the nitric oxide sensor generating a signal indicative of the amount of nitric oxide in the esophageal gas sample, the nitric oxide sensor outputting the signal, and, based on the signal, determining the amount of nitric oxide in the esophageal gas sample.
LUNG TESTING DEVICE
A device for determining measurement values describing the function of the lungs or the respiratory system of a patient includes a mouthpiece including a tube for introducing respiratory air and for sucking in air, and a gas measurement space. At least one of the following gas sensors is arranged in the gas measurement space: nitrogen monoxide sensor, carbon dioxide sensor, oxygen sensor, carbon monoxide sensor, multi-gas sensor, sensor for volatile organic compounds, alkane sensor, infrared sensor, fiber optic sensor, resistance sensor, and semiconductor sensor. The gas measurement chamber is separated by a closable opening into a first gas measurement chamber and a second gas measurement chamber, the second gas measurement chamber being closed or closable. The closable opening opens a flow path from the first gas measurement chamber into the second gas measurement chamber. A gas sensor is arranged in the second gas measurement chamber.
INFRARED IMAGE SEQUENCE-BASED SLEEP QUALITY EVALUATION SYSTEM AND METHOD
An infrared image sequence-based sleep quality evaluation system and method. The method comprises: obtaining a plurality of respiratory infrared image sequences to be evaluated, one respiratory infrared image sequence comprising a plurality of respiratory infrared image frames to be evaluated; performing sleep quality evaluation on each respiratory infrared image sequence in the plurality of respiratory infrared image sequences by means of a classifier to obtain a sleep quality evaluation result corresponding to each respiratory infrared image sequence; and counting the number of different sleep quality evaluation results according to the sleep quality evaluation results respectively corresponding to the plurality of respiratory infrared image sequences, and determining the sleep quality evaluation result with the largest number as a sleep quality evaluation result of a user. Contactless sleep monitoring can be carried out on a user, monitoring costs are reduced at the same time, and evaluation accuracy of sleep quality is improved.

Devices and methods for monitoring physiologic parameters
Devices and methods for monitoring physiologic parameters are described where an airway device, in one embodiment, may comprise a mouthpiece section and an opening section defining one or more airway lumens therethrough with a first sensor in fluid communication with the one or more airway lumens and a second sensor positioned upon a hand-piece for contact against a portion of the user. The first sensor may be configured to detect an airway pressure when a user inhales or exhales through the one or more airway lumens, and the second sensor may be configured to detect a physiological signal from the user. Additionally, a controller may be in communication with the first and second sensors where the controller is programmed to correlate pressure oscillations in the airway pressure with heartbeats.
DEVICE AND SYSTEM FOR PASSIVE CLINICAL ASSESSMENT
A device for gathering vital sign and other heath indicator data. The device is constructed to register with a person’s anatomical structure in a predictable fashion, and to include integrated sensors positioned to register with specific anatomical portions of the person. Accordingly, relevant data and assessment may be performed passively, e.g., during physical contact/engagement of the patient with the sensors of the device, which may be for, example, a chair or other piece of furniture in which the patient may sit. The device may analyze gathered sensor data and draw clinical assessment conclusions. Data analysis may be done at the device, or remotely. Vital sign/data and/or assessment conclusions may be displayed to the caregiver only, e.g., via a display device or via an EHR or other computing system receiving data from the device. A separate display screen may display information to the patient for entertainment or instructive purposes.
