SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MONITORING A CONSCIOUSNESS-ALTERING THERAPEUTIC SESSION
A system for monitoring patients during a consciousness-altering therapeutic treatment session including a data collection module in electronic communication with network servers for storage of data on non-transitory computer readable media for monitoring a patient's well-being during and after the treatment session. A method of using the system in treating a patient, by continuously, continually, or at the healthcare professionals discretion monitoring the well-being of the patient during a consciousness-altering therapeutic treatment session through one or more wearable devices and a patient mobile device in electronic communication with a facilitator mobile device, and continuously monitoring the well-being of the patient after the treatment session with the wearable device.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR EVALUATING AND MITIGATING PROBLEM BEHAVIOR BY DETECTING PRECURSORS
Systems and methods for predicting problem behavior in individuals with developmental and behavior disabilities. A plurality of sensors are configured to collect multimodal data signals of a subject individual including a wearable upper body motion sensing device with a plurality of inertial measurement units (IMUs). An electronic controller is configured to receive output signals from each of IMUs and to model an upper body position of the subject individual based on the output signals from the IMUs. A trained machine-learning model is then applied by providing an input data set that includes multimodal signal data (e.g., including signal data from at least one IMU) and/or features extracted from the multimodal signal data. The machine-learning model is trained to produce as output an indication of whether a precursor to the problem behavior is detected and, in response to detecting the precursor, a notification (or alarm) is generated.
Dual sensor electrodes for providing enhanced resuscitation feedback
A system for facilitating resuscitation includes: a first electrode assembly having a therapy side and a first motion sensor; a second electrode assembly having a therapy side and a second motion sensor; processing circuitry operatively connected to and programmed to receive and process signals from the first and second motion sensors to estimate at least one of a chest compression depth and rate during administration of chest compressions and to compare the chest compression depth or rate to a desired range; and an output device for providing instructions to a user to administer chest compressions based on the comparison of the estimated chest compression depth or rate to the desired range. One or both of the electrode assemblies may be constructed so that the conductive therapeutic portion is able to maintain substantial conformance to the anatomy of the patient when coupled thereto. For example, at least a portion of the flexible electrode pad may be able to flex from a more rigid sensor housing, or the sensor housing itself may be relatively small compared to the flexible electrode pad so as not to cause lift off of the therapeutic side from the patient.

DETERMINATION OF SEPARATION DISTANCE FROM THERMAL AND ACOUSTIC INPUT
A method for dynamically determining a separation distance in which thermal images of a space are received that indicate a count and location of users within the space, temperature of the users within the space are received along with acoustic data from the users within the space, which is filtered to include specific symptom-related sounds and discard other sounds. The one or more processors generate a probability of a contagious infection of users within the space at a location determined by the thermal images, based on correlating the temperature and the acoustic data associated with the users within the space. A separation distance from the users within the space is calculated, based on the locations and the probabilities of infection of the users within the space, and a notification corresponding to the calculated separation distance is delivered to a protected user.
