Apparatus, system, and method for physiological sensing in vehicles

Methods and apparatus provide physiological movement detection, such as gesture, breathing, cardiac and/or gross motion, such as with sound, radio frequency and/or infrared generation, by electronic devices such as vehicular processing devices. The electronic device in a vehicle may, for example, be any of an audio entertainment system, a vehicle navigation system, and a semi-autonomous or autonomous vehicle operations control system. One or more processors of the device, may detect physiological movement by controlling producing sensing signal(s) in a cabin of a vehicle housing the electronic device. The processor(s) control sensing, with a sensor, reflected signal(s) from the cabin. The processor(s) derive a physiological movement signal with the sensing signal and reflected signal and generate an output based on an evaluation of the derived physiological movement signal. The output may control operations or provide an input to any of the entertainment system, navigation system, and vehicle operations control system.

SYSTEM FOR MENTAL HEALTH CLINICAL APPLICATION
20180011971 · 2018-01-11 ·

A system for mental health clinical application includes a virtual reality (VR) headset, a physiological sensor device and a computer device. The computer device is used to perform an illness test on a user by establishing a virtual 3D environment via the VR headset according to test data provided by the computer device. The computer device receives, from the physiological sensor device, a physiological signal of the user in response to the illness test to analyze an illness condition of the user.

20180008830 · 2018-01-11 ·

Systems and methods are provided for optimizing hemodynamics within a patient's heart, e.g., to improve the patient's exercise capacity. In one embodiment, a system is configured to be implanted in a patient's body to monitor and/or treat the patient that includes at least one sensor configured to provide sensor data that corresponds to a blood pressure within or near the patient's heart; at least one component designed to cause dyssynchrony of the right ventricle, and a controller configured for adjusting the function of the at least one component based at least in part on sensor data from the at least one sensor.

BLOOD PUMP
20230233840 · 2023-07-27 ·

Apparatus and methods are described including a blood pump that includes a catheter, a first impeller disposed on the catheter, and a second impeller disposed on the catheter, proximally to the first impeller. A motor drives the first and second impellers to pump blood of a subject, by driving the first and second impellers to rotate. The blood pumps is configured such that (a) the first and second impellers are shaped differently from each other when the first and second impellers are in non-radially-constrained configurations, (b) the first and second impellers are sized differently from each other when the first and second impellers are in non-radially-constrained configurations, and/or (c) the first and second impellers are driven by the motor to rotate under respective rotation conditions that are different from each other. Other applications are also described.

SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR SWITCHING BETWEEN CLOSED LOOP AND OPEN LOOP CONTROL OF AN AMBULATORY INFUSION PUMP
20230233763 · 2023-07-27 ·

An infusion pump system providing therapy to a patient in a closed-loop or semi-closed loop mode can safely automatically revert to open-loop therapy. The system stores a default open-loop basal rate profile in memory. The system also continually tracks the insulin on board for the patient over a plurality of closed-loop therapy intervals. When an error or event occurs requiring reversion to open-loop therapy, the system automatically provides therapy according to the open-loop basal rate profile and the tracked insulin on board amount.

ACTIVITY MODE FOR ARTIFICIAL PANCREAS SYSTEM

A wearable drug delivery device, techniques, and computer-readable media that provide an application that implements a diabetes treatment plan for a user are described. The drug delivery device may include a controller operable to direct operation of the wearable drug delivery device. The controller may provide a selectable activity mode of operation for the user. Operation of the drug delivery device in the activity mode of operation may reduce a likelihood of hypoglycemia during times of increased insulin sensitivity for the user and may reduce a likelihood of hyperglycemia during times of increased insulin requirements for the user. The activity mode of operation may be manually activated by the user or may be activated automatically by the controller. The controller may automatically activate the activity mode of operation based on a detected activity level of the user and/or a detected location of the user.

A METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR MEASURING A LEVEL OF ANXIETY
20230233121 · 2023-07-27 · ·

There is described a method and system for measuring a level of anxiety. Measured data comprising EEG data collected from a parietal (P) EEG electrode is received. A group 8 indicator based on a power, P-power (dt), associated with a delta-theta frequency band, dt, within a delta-theta frequency range is extracted. Based on said group 8 indicator, a level of anxiety, LoA, is determined which is a value indicative of the level of anxiety of the subject.
