Methods and devices include automated coaching for management of glucose states by receiving a user's glucose levels using a continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) device, determining a time in range (TIR) value, determining a TIR state, receiving a glucose variability (GV) value, determining a GV state, determining a starting state based on the TIR state and the GV state, determining that the starting state corresponds to a non-ideal state, generating an optimized pathway to reach an ideal state based on one or more account vectors such as addressing self-management behavior including food, activity, and medication use. The optimized pathway may further be based on computer detection and classification of significant events of interest over time.

Systems and methods use patient speech samples as inputs, use subjective multi-point ratings by speech-language pathologists of multiple perceptual dimensions of patient speech samples as further inputs, and extract laboratory-implemented features from the patient speech samples. A predictive software model learns the relationship between speech acoustics and the subjective ratings of such speech obtained from speech-language pathologists, and is configured to apply this information to evaluate new speech samples. Outputs may include objective evaluation of the plurality of perceptual dimensions for new speech samples and/or evaluation of disease onset, disease progression, or disease treatment efficacy for a condition involving dysarthria as a symptom, utilizing the new speech samples.

Provided is an apparatus for detecting a characteristic point to non-invasively estimate bio-information by analyzing a pulse waveform. The apparatus for detecting a characteristic point may include a bio-signal sensor that may obtain a bio-signal from an object, and a processor configured to obtain a first envelope by removing a first baseline change from an oscillometric waveform envelope of the bio-signal; obtain a second envelope by removing a second baseline change from the oscillometric waveform envelope of the bio-signal; obtain a third envelope based on the first envelope and the second envelope; and detect the characteristic point from the oscillometric waveform envelope based on the third envelope.

At least partial function of a human limb is restored by surgically removing at least a portion of an injured or diseased human limb from a surgical site of an individual and transplanting a selected muscle into the remaining biological body of the individual, followed by contacting the transplanted selected muscle, or an associated nerve, with an electrode, to thereby control a device, such as a prosthetic limb, linked to the electrode. Simulating proprioceptive sensory feedback from a device includes mechanically linking at least one pair of agonist and antagonist muscles, wherein a nerve innervates each muscle, and supporting each pair with a support, whereby contraction of the agonist muscle of each pair will cause extension of the paired antagonist muscle. An electrode is implanted in a muscle of each pair and electrically connected to a motor controller of the device, thereby simulating proprioceptive sensory feedback from the device.

Embodiments of the present systems and methods may provide techniques that may provide the capability to autonomously and automatically identify cases of suspected abuse, which may then be subject to follow up review and action. For example, in an embodiment, a system for identifying potential physical abuse in a location may comprise at least one video camera provided at the location and a computer system comprising a processor, memory accessible by the processor, and computer program instructions stored in the memory and executable by the processor to cause the computer system to perform: receiving video data from the at least one video camera, identifying potential physical abuse from the video data, the identification being to within a predetermined confidence level, and transmitting information indicating that a potential human threat has been identified.

A device is provided that may include an illuminator operable to interrogate at least a lens of an eye. The illuminator may include at least one light source and a lens positioned with respect to the light source to produce interrogating radiation. The device also may include a detector operable to image the total autofluorescence response of the lens of the eye as viewable through a pupil of the eye, the detector comprising an image sensor. The device can also include a controller operable to control operation of the illuminator and the detector. The controller may interrogate at least the lens of the eye by activating the illuminator for a select time, obtain at least one image of the total autofluorescence response of the lens at the detector during or immediately subsequent to the select time, and transmit the at least one image to a remote device.

As a method for diagnosing jaundice of a user based on an image by a jaundice diagnosis device, a jaundice diagnosis image is obtained including a jaundice diagnosis reference device divided into a first area and a second area, and a specific body part of a user located in the first area. The identification information of the jaundice diagnosis reference device inserted in the second area is extracted, and validity authentication of the identification information is requested through an interlocked authentication system. When the validity authentication success message is received from the authentication system, the user is diagnosed with jaundice based on the image of a specific body part located in the first area and the jaundice diagnosis comparison image included in the second area.

A method for non-invasive detection of ingested medication which provide for one or more processors to receive images of medications designated for a user prior to ingestion of the medications by the user. The one or more processors capture an ultrasound image during ingestion by the user by an ultrasound device removably adhered to a throat area of the user. The one or more processors determine whether contents of the ingestion by the user includes one or more of the medications designated for the user, and responsive to determining the contents of the ingestion by the user includes one or more of the medications designated for the user, the one or more processors generate a confirmation that includes identification of the detected medications ingested by the user.

A method and system for generating pulse oximetry predictive scores for predicting adverse outcomes in preterm infants.
