AUTO-FIT MASK
Devices and systems with methods for detecting a sealing condition between a patient interface and a patient, and adjusting the patient interface to maintain the patient interface in sealing contact with the patient. The patient interface may include a sealing structure to form a seal on the patient, and a positioning structure to secure the sealing structure to the patient. The patient interface may include a sensor coupled to the sealing structure. A processor determines the sealing condition between the sealing structure and the patient based on a signal from the sensor, and adjusts at least one of the sealing structure and the positioning structure to maintain the sealing structure in sealing contact with the patient. A prediction system predicts a leak between the sealing structure and the patient based on the sensor signal. A learning system learns how to fit the sealing structure to the patient to form a seal.
Stimulation of penis erection
A method of implanting a penis erection stimulation system into a patient's body comprises cutting the skin of the patient body, dissecting free an area near the left and right corpus cavernosum, placing a drug delivery device within the dissected area and placing at least one infusion needle of the drug delivery device in a first position in the patient's body in between the left and right corpus cavernosum.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS OF TRANSCUTANEOUS VIBRATION TO SYNERGIZE WITH OR AUGMENT A TREATMENT MODALITY
Systems and methods disclosed herein relate to augmenting a treatment modality. A method of providing stimulation therapy to a user may include generating transcutaneous vibratory output comprising one or more variable parameters, subjecting the user, in conjunction with the transcutaneous vibratory output, to a treatment modality, wherein the one or more variable parameters of the transcutaneous vibratory output comprise at least one of a perceived pitch, a perceived beat, a perceived intensity, an envelope, or a base tone, and at least one of selecting or modifying the one or more variable parameters of the transcutaneous vibratory output to augment the treatment modality.
Systems and methods of wave generation for transcutaneous vibration
Systems and methods of assisting a subject to reach a target state include obtaining input of the target state of the subject; and generating a transcutaneous vibratory output to be applied to a portion of a body of the subject to assist the subject in achieving the target state, the transcutaneous vibratory output having variable parameters comprising a perceived pitch, a perceived beat, and a perceived intensity wherein the step of generating the transcutaneous vibratory output further comprises the step of modifying the variable parameters to correspond to the target state.

Systems include a plurality of electrodes configured to be coupled to a brain of a user and configured to obtain a plurality of measurements from the brain of the user, and an interface configured to obtain the plurality of measurements from the plurality of electrodes. Systems include a processing device comprising one or more processors configured to generate a sleep state model associated with the user, the sleep state model identifying characteristics of a plurality of sleep stages, and further identifying characteristics of transitions between the plurality of sleep stages. Systems include a controller comprising one or more processors configured to generate a control signal based on the sleep state model and the plurality of measurements.
DIALYSATE POTASSIUM CONTROL DURING A DIALYSIS SESSION
The present invention relates to devices, systems, and methods for controlling the concentration of potassium in dialysate in a closed loop potassium control system. The devices, systems, and methods can be compatible with any dialysis system including sorbent-based dialysis systems, single pass dialysis systems, or other multi-pass dialysis systems. The systems can use closed loop potassium control over potassium concentration in the dialysate to reduce the probability of patient arrhythmias. The potassium concentration can be controlled and personalized to a patient using certain predetermined patient parameters. Related systems, algorithms, and control systems are contemplated for optimizing the potassium concentration in the dialysate.
DYNAMIC TARGET RATE FOR GUIDED BREATHING
Aspects of the present disclosure provide methods, apparatuses, and systems for dynamically adjusting a breathing entrainment based on whether a user is stressing or relaxing. According to an aspect, a first target breathing period is selected, and a guiding stimulus configured to alter a current breathing period of the user towards the first target breathing period over an interval of time is output. One or more relaxation biometrics are measured and analyzed to determine whether the user is stressing or relaxing. Based on whether the user is relaxing or stressing, at least one of the guided stimulus and the first target breathing period are adjusted, where the first target breathing period is adjusted to a second target breathing period different from the first target breathing period. By making adjustments based on whether a user is relaxing or stressing, the breathing entrainment is more effective and comfortable for users.
Electromagnetic wave sensing and modulating of neuronal activities
The present invention presents methods and apparatus for detecting, imaging, monitoring, and modulating of brain activities and neuronal activities in the brain using radiofrequency (RF) electromagnetic (EM) waves, as well as methods and apparatus for detecting, imaging, and monitoring breathing and heart-beating using RF EM waves.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR CONTROLLED DELIVERY OF ANALGESIC AND HYPNOTIC AGENTS
The invention relates to administration of clinical anesthesia. Particular embodiments provide systems and methods for controlled delivery of a combination of an analgesic agent and a hypnotic agent.
