A system includes a memory storing a user profile for a user of the system and machine-readable instructions and a control system including one or more processors configured to execute the machine-readable instructions to receive physiological data associated with the user during a sleep session, determine, based at least in part on the received physiological data, a set of sleep-related parameters for the sleep session, subsequent to the sleep session, select one of the set of sleep-related parameters as a targeted parameter, the selection of the targeted parameter being based at least in part on the stored user profile, the set of sleep-related parameters, or both, and cause information to be communicated to the user via a user device, the information being indicative of the targeted parameter, a recommendation associated with improving the targeted parameter for the user in one or more subsequent sleep sessions, or both.

A system and method for providing sensory relief from distractibility, inattention, anxiety, fatigue, and/or sensory issues to a user in need. The user can be autistic/neurodiverse, or neurotypical. The system can be configured to connect to a datastore storing one or more sensory thresholds specific to a user of a wearable device of the system, the sensory thresholds selected from auditory, visual or physiological sensory thresholds; record, using one or more sensors of the wearable device, a sensory input stimulus to the user; compare the sensory input stimulus with the sensory thresholds to determine an intervention to be provided to the user, the intervention configured to provide the user relief from distractibility, inattention, anxiety, fatigue, or sensory issues; and provide the intervention to the user, the intervention comprising filtering, in real-time, an audio signal presented to the user or an optical signal presented to the user.

Systems and methods are provided to combine multiple stimulation modalities to significantly increase the effectiveness of non-invasive stimulation. Multiple sensor and stimulation devices and modalities can be combined into a single, compact unit that minimizes the need for additional sensors or stimulation devices. The system features several subunits, referred to as sensory and stimulation devices (SSD), that are integrated into a headphone setup. The system is controlled by a centralized controller that communicates with all of the SSDs and with an external computer system that delivers learning material synchronized with the delivery of stimulations and the collection of user responses based on physiological signals.

A device, method, and use of a device for temporary management of a wound, such as a wound in a heart. The device has a shaft, a blood flow blocking membrane at the first end of the shaft for blocking blood flow through the wound, and an abutment member that is mounted to the shaft and is axially movable along the shaft towards and away from the blood flow blocking membrane for abutting the wound and holding the blood flow blocking membrane adjacent the wound. The blood flow blocking membrane is resiliently flexible and movable between at least a first collapsed state for inserting the blood flow blocking membrane through the wound, and a deployed state for blocking blood flow through the wound.

Systems and methods are provided for identifying a therapeutic VR activity or exercise for a subject/patient based on the subject's impairments, dynamically adjusting a VR activity for a patient, and identifying potential impairments based on a patient's performance in a VR activity. Patients may each have various physical, neurological, cognitive, and/or sensory impairments to be treated. Not all therapeutic activities may be appropriate for some patients and their impairments. A VR therapeutic activity platform may increase patient engagement and challenge patients at more appropriate times by better matching activities corresponding to a patient's impairments and dynamically adjusting each VR activity based on performance to offer a challenging and rewarding therapeutic experience.
