Layered and multi-sectional pulse wave sensors and use thereof
An apparatus includes a wearable sensor structure that includes multiple individual sensor units placed in a row. Each individual sensor unit includes a first portion to contact a surface of skin under which arteries and/or veins are to be located, and a second portion that contacts the first portion and is configured to have a capacitance. The first and second portions are configured to create a capacitance change in response to a squeezing or bending between the first portion and a fixed part of the second portion caused by a pulse pressure and release of the pulse pressure. The apparatus includes circuitry configured to measure waveforms for the individual sensor units. Each waveform captures the capacitance change for its corresponding individual sensor unit. The apparatus includes a wireless interface configured to transmit the waveforms. A computing system is also disclosed that analyzes the waveforms and can provide alerts based thereon.
Imaging System and Method
An imaging connector includes a proximal side and a distal side. The proximal side includes a light input opening and an image output opening. The distal side includes a light output opening and an image input opening. The imaging connector is operable to (i) transmit light from the light input opening to the light output opening, and (ii) transmit an image from the image input opening to the image output opening.
SYSTEM FOR MONITORING PHYSIOLOGICAL PARAMETERS
The present invention relates to a system for monitoring physiological parameters to an integrated digital system, which is able to determine several biological parameters, such as from photoplethysmographic (PPG) signals and other connected devices or sensors to give a personalized supplement, nutritional and lifestyle recommendation to improve specifically said parameters. By using new algorithms based on PPG signals the cardiovascular condition of a person can be analyzed by estimating cardiovascular parameters.

Systems and methods for remote and host monitoring communication are disclosed. In some implementations, monitoring systems can comprise a host monitoring device associated with a Host communicatively coupled to one or more remote monitoring devices associated with Remote Monitors. The host monitoring device can send communications based at least in part on analyte measurements of a Host sensor and/or other contextual data giving such measurements context. Different remote monitoring devices can receive different communications based at least in part on the role of the respective Remote Monitors relative to the Host. These roles can be reflected in classifications of Remote Monitors.
Continuous long-term monitoring of a subject
A method includes obtaining monitoring data recorded by first and second devices, the first and second devices being attached to the subject at different first and second sties, respectively. The monitoring data comprises signals associated with at least one physiological parameter of the subject. The method also includes extracting one or more features of the signals recorded by the first and second devices during a transitionary period when the first and second devices simultaneously monitor the at least one physiological parameter of the subject. The method further includes generating at least one correlation parameter by analyzing the extracted features of the signals recorded by the first and second devices for at least a portion of the transitionary period, the at least one correlation parameter when applied to signals recorded by the second device at least partially compensating for relative changes in signals recorded by the first and second devices.
Vehicular health monitoring system and method
A vehicle includes a control system for controlling one or more operations of the vehicle. A touchpoint integrated in the vehicle is configured to receive PPG signals reflected from skin of an occupant, wherein the PPG signals are at a plurality of wavelengths. A processing circuit is configured to determine a signal quality of at least one of the PPG signals and generate one or more of: a visible feedback, an audible feedback or a tactile feedback in response the signal quality of the at least one PPG signal. The PPG signals to obtain health information of a user and generate a health message to the control system of the vehicle in response to the health information, wherein the control system controls one or more operations of the vehicle in response to the health message.
Pulse sensing device
A pulse sensing device including main body with at least a pair of sensors, a power source, a power connector, at least one light source electrically coupled to the at least a pair of sensors and a divider configured to separate the power source from the power connector, a casing surrounding the main body, and, an adhesive layer located on a surface of the casing.
COMPACT MOBILE THREE-LEAD CARDIAC MONITORING DEVICE
Compact, mobile three-lead cardiac monitoring devices for remote detection and/or diagnosis of cardiac events (e.g., acute myocardial infarction). The apparatus may include two integrated hand electrodes and two chest electrodes disposed on two pivotable arms that are capable of retracting in the compartments, enabling a compact size when the device is not used. Also described herein are systems including these devices and methods of using them.
Apparatus and method for estimating bio-information
An apparatus for estimating bio-information according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes a processor configured to obtain spectra from an object, obtain a component produced based on a change in pressure applied to the object, correct the spectra based on the obtained component produced based on the change in pressure, and estimate bio-information of the object based on the corrected spectra.
MULTIPARAMETER NONINVASIVE SEPSIS MONITOR
A system for monitoring sepsis comprises one or more sensors that noninvasively monitor a patient to produce sensor data and processing circuitry to: derive, from the sensor data, one or more physiological parameters of the patient that are indicative of a sepsis state of the patient; apply a set of rules to the one or more physiological parameters; determine a sepsis state for the patient based on the set of rules applied to the one or more physiological parameters; and output at least one signal indicative of the sepsis state of the patient. The system includes an output device that outputs a notification based on the at least one signal.
