A method of indicating an oxygen desaturation period has been initiated includes detecting an oxygen mask configured to supply oxygen to a patient to saturate the patient, detecting a removal of the oxygen mask from the patient to stop saturation of the patient, initiating a desaturation timer in response the removal of the oxygen mask from the patient, and operating an image display device to display a first running time on a screen of the image display device indicating a desaturation time elapsed from a time of the removal of the mask.

A system and method of validating and performing operations on homomorphically encrypted data are described herein. The methods include processing a secure financial transaction by receiving a transaction request to complete a financial transaction, with at least a portion of the request encrypted according to a homomorphic encryption scheme, and the transaction request comprising confidential cardholder data including an account number, non-confidential cardholder data, and transaction data, and retrieving one or more sets of encrypted comparison cardholder data encrypted according to a homomorphic encryption scheme. The confidential cardholder data is then compared to each set of the comparison cardholder data using one or more homomorphic operations to determine which set of comparison cardholder data matches the confidential cardholder data and validating the confidential cardholder data. An encrypted indicator is generated indicating authorization or rejection of the request and forwarded to a party seeking authorization to complete the financial transaction.

Systems, methods and devices for reducing noise in health monitoring including monitoring systems, methods and/or devices receiving a health signal and/or having at least one electrode or sensor for health monitoring.

Disclosed embodiments include methods and systems including a receiver unit of a glucose monitoring system. The receiver unit is configured to receive a key associated with a transmitter unit that enables the receiver unit to identify the transmitter unit, initiate communication with the transmitter unit, access a communication key uniquely associated with the transmitter unit, and receive communication packets from the remote transmitter unit on a periodic basis including data indicative of a glucose level of a bodily fluid. The receiver unit is further configured to process the data determine the glucose level for display, output a numerical representation of the determined glucose level in a GUI, and transmit data indicative of the glucose level to a second receiver unit.

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide techniques and configurations for an apparatus for a user's physiological context measurements. In one instance, the apparatus may include a head-fitting component to be mounted at least partly around a user's head, and a sensor disposed on the head-fitting component to generate a signal indicative of a user's physiological context in response to contact with the user's head. The physiological context may comprise a respiration cycle, and the sensor may sense vibration in a portion of the user's head produced in response to the respiration cycle. The apparatus may further include a controller coupled with the sensor, to process the signal and generate data indicative of the physiological context of the user. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.

The present disclosure provides methods and apparatuses for determining a fatigue index. A method of determining a fatigue index may include receiving physiological signals, generating a plurality of parameters of heart rate variability based on the physiological signals, and determining the fatigue index based on the plurality of parameters of heart rate variability.

To provide a biological-information analyzing device, a biological-information analyzing system, and a biological-information analyzing method that can appropriately measure biological information even in a user having an athlete's heart. A biological-information analyzing device includes a biological-information detecting section configured to detect biological information of a user, a user determining section configured to determine an exercise capability of the user, an information setting section configured to set, when it is determined that the exercise capability of the user satisfies a predetermined condition, analysis information corresponding to the exercise capability of the user, and an analyzing section configured to analyze the biological information on the basis of the set analysis information.

Diagnostic apparatus (24) includes a sealed case (40), including a biocompatible material and configured for implantation within a body of a human subject (22). At least one antenna (42) is configured to be implanted in the body in proximity to a target tissue (28) and to receive radio frequency (RF) electromagnetic waves propagated through the target tissue and to output a signal in response to the received waves. Processing circuitry (44,46), which is contained within the case, us coupled to receive and process the signal from the antenna so as to derive and output an indication of a characteristic of the target tissue.

The present invention relates to a method and system for estimating blood analyte levels using a noninvasive optical coherence tomography (OCT) based physiological monitor. An algorithm correlates OCT-based estimated blood analyte data with actual blood analyte data determined by other methods, such as invasively. OCT-based data is fit to the obtained blood analyte measurements to achieve the best correlation. Once the algorithm has generated sets of estimated blood analyte levels, it may refine the number of sets by applying one or more mathematical filters. The OCT-based physiological monitor can be calibrated using an Intensity Difference plot or the Pearson Product Moment Correlation method.
