A system for clinical decision support for a caregiver during a clinical encounter involving respiratory distress includes a defibrillator/patient monitor including sensors configured to gather patient physiological data, a user interface device, a memory, and a processor communicatively coupled to the defibrillator/patient monitor, the memory, and the user interface device and configured to control the user interface device to display diagnosis and treatment pathways (DTPs) comprising a respiratory distress DTP, receive a user selection of the respiratory distress DTP; control the user interface device to provide at least a portion of the physiological data in response to the user selection of the respiratory distress DTP, provide a suggested respiratory distress diagnosis at the user interface device based on the physiological data and the user selection of the respiratory distress DTP, and provide a respiratory distress treatment protocol at the user interface device based on the suggested respiratory distress diagnosis.

In embodiments, a CPR chest compression system includes a retention structure that can retain the patient's body, and a compression mechanism that can perform automatically CPR compressions and releases to the patient's chest. The compression mechanism can pause the performing of the CPR compressions for a short time, so that an attendant can check the patient. The CPR system also includes a user interface that can output a human-perceptible check patient prompt, to alert an attendant to check the patient during the pause. An advantage can be when the attendant checks in situations where the condition of the patient might have changed, and an adjustment is needed. Or in situations where the patient may have improved enough to where the compressions are no longer needed.

A trauma scene monitoring system includes a medic-worn illumination device, a casualty-worn informatics system, and a remote monitoring station. The illumination device includes a frame with boom-mounted light sources positioned below the wearer's eyes near the zygomatic bones, thus orienting the light sources to project light in the direction of the wearer's view. Also included are audio/video means to capture audio/video information from a scene attended by the medic, and a telemetry unit to transmit that information to the remote monitoring station. The casualty-worn informatics system is integrated within a headband worn by a monitored individual. The informatics system includes sensors to provide the monitored individual's vital statistics and a telemetry unit to transmit data concerning the monitored individual to the remote monitoring station. At the remote monitoring station, receiving and presentation stations provide views of the data concerning the monitored individual and audio/video data from the medic-worn illumination device.

Embodiments of the disclosure provide systems and methods for detecting an intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). The system includes a communication interface configured to receive a sequence of image slices and an end-to-end multi-task learning model. The sequence of image slices is the head scan images of a subject acquired by an image acquisition device. The end-to-end multi-task learning model includes an encoder, a bi-directional Convolutional Recurrent Neural Network (ConvRNN), a decoder, and a classifier. The system further includes at least one processor configured to extract feature maps from each image slice using the encoder, capture contextual information between adjacent image slices using the bi-directional ConvRNN, and detect the ICH of the subject using the classifier based on the extracted feature maps of the image slices and the contextual information or segment each image slice using the decoder to obtain an ICH region based on the extracted feature maps of the image slice.

Systems and methods for remotely sensing movement of a mammalian subject utilize a radio frequency (RF) transmitter configured to impinge a RF signal on tissue of a mammalian subject, a RF receiver configured to receive a reflected RF signal, a processor configured to separately identify presence of respiratory and non-respiratory motion of the mammalian subject, and a memory configured to store processes signal values generated by or derived from the processor, wherein the processor is configured to compare one or more processed signals against one or more stored processed signal values, and detect a health state or health condition of the mammalian subject. Sleep apnea and respiratory events may be detected. In one embodiment, motion of a human infant may be mapped over time, and motion trends may be used to assess proper development of the infant.

Embodiments herein relate to systems, devices, and methods for assessing hemorrhage and other conditions and treating patients suffering from the same. In an embodiment, a method for detecting hemorrhage in a patient is included. The method can include obtaining a breath sample from the subject and contacting it with a chemical sensor element, the chemical sensor element including a plurality of discrete graphene varactors; sensing and storing capacitance of the discrete graphene varactors to obtain a sample data set; and classifying the sample data set into one or more preestablished hemorrhage classifications. Other embodiments are included herein.

Technologies and implementations for using unmanned aerial vehicles in emergency applications.

Example defibrillator electrode assemblies compression assemblies are described that may be dimensioned and configured for use on a patient despite physical constraints that limit the area or locations on a patient onto which an electrode assembly may be placed. A cardio pulmonary resuscitation (CPR) assembly is also described that protects a patient with a transthoracic incision from further injury during application of CPR compressions proximate to the incision.

This document relates to computer-based systems and techniques for analyzing skin coloration using spectral imaging techniques to determine a medical condition of an individual. This document further relates to providing feedback to a rescuer or other medical professional based on the colorimetric properties of the patient's skin.

An alarm indicator (4) is provided with a light guiding member (41), a first light source (42) and a transmissive member (43). The light guiding member (41) extends in a first direction that is parallel to a display screen in which medical information is displayed. The first light source (42) faces an end face (41a) of the light guiding member (41) in the first direction. The transmissive member (43) covers the light guiding member (41) from a second direction intersecting with the first direction. The light guiding member (41) is provided with a light reflecting portion and an outer face (41d). The light reflecting portion extends in the first direction and reflects the light incident from the end face (41a) at least toward the second direction intersecting with the first direction. The light reflected by the reflecting portion is emitted from the outer face (41d) while being diffused.
