CLOSED-LOOP ARTIFICIAL PANCREAS DEVICE WITH INTEGRATED DETECTION AND INFUSION
The invention discloses a closed-loop artificial pancreas device with integrated detection and infusion, comprising: infusion unit configured to deliver drugs; program unit comprising input end and output end, and the input end comprises a plurality of electrically connective regions for receiving signals of analyte data in the body fluid, after the output end is electrically connected to the infusion unit, according to the received signals of analyte data in the body fluid, the program unit controls whether the infusion unit delivers drugs; an infusion cannula with conductive area, the infusion cannula is the drug infusion channel; and a plurality of electrodes for detecting analyte data in body fluid, the electrode comprising conductive-area electrode and cannula-wall electrode, the conductive area of the infusion cannula being at least as a conductive-area electrode, and one or more cannula-wall electrodes being located on/in the wall of the infusion cannula.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR WOUND HEALING
A system and method is provided for healing a wound in a subject in need thereof. The system includes a wound dressing that has a therapeutic agent and at least one electrode in electrical communication with the therapeutic agent. The system also includes a power source in electrical communication with the at least one electrode and a vacuum source in fluid communication with the wound dressing.
Wearable medication delivery device
Systems and methods for delivering a medication to a person experiencing an emergency medical event without requiring intervention or action on the part of the person. A device encases a reservoir of medication and a delivery mechanism. Sensors in the housing sense a physical attribute of the person and circuitry monitors information collected by the sensors to determine if the person is experiencing a severe medical condition or event based on the information. An input device on or in the housing, such as a button, may be used or activated by the person if the detected condition or event is a false positive to cancel further action. If the system does not include the button or if the user does not press it in time, the system activates the delivery device and injects the medication into the person.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR TREATING PATIENTS WITH (OR AT RISK FOR) ABNORMAL BLOOD CLOTS, PARTICULARLY COVID-19 PATIENTS
The present disclosure provides, among other things, methods and systems for treating or removing blood clots in a biological fluid. In some embodiments, the present disclosure provides dialysis-like systems for capturing blood clots. The present disclosure encompasses the recognition that such methods and systems are useful for patients at risk for pulmonary embolism (e.g., patients with deep vein thrombosis and/or COVID-19 patients).
Device for treating an individual suffering from cardiac insufficiency, cardiac arrest, circulatory arrest or stroke
The invention relates to a device for treating an individual suffering from cardiac or circulatory arrest or from a stroke, comprising a blood withdrawal device (BE) that is applied to the individual (P), an analysis unit (BA) which is directly or indirectly connected to the blood withdrawal device for detecting a blood analysis result (BAE) providing at least one characteristic of the blood, directly or indirectly connected to a blood return device (BR) that is applied to the individual (P) and is designed to deliver a substance to the individual via the return device (BR).
Systems and methods for predicting patient health status
Systems and methods are provided herein for treating a patient in cardiogenic shock. An intravascular heart pump system is inserted into vasculature of the patient. The heart pump system has a cannula, pump outlet, pump inlet, and rotor. The heart pump system is positioned within the patient such that the cannula extends across the patient's aortic valve, the pump inlet is located within the patient's left ventricle, and the pump outlet is located within the patient's aorta. Data related to time-varying parameters of the heart pump system is acquired from the heart pump system. A plurality of features are extracted from the data. A probability of survival of the patient is determined based on the plurality of features and using a prediction model. The heart pump system is operated to treat the patient.
Secure artificial intelligence enabled wearable medical sensor platforms
A secure artificial intelligence (AI) enabled wearable medical sensor platform is used for adaptive operation according to features and techniques described herein. Operational parameters are modified based on data inputs thereto that provide feedback to the AI systems of the wearable sensor platform. The described technology can facilitate adaptive optimizations provided by AI machine learning algorithms in a manner that can beneficially assist in the monitoring and treatment of a patient. For example, the system described herein may be used for the continuous monitoring of the physiological parameters and health of a patient's vascular access point (for example, the fistula) and may provide, among other things, early warnings of possible infection at the vascular access location.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR IDENTIFICATION AND VERIFICATION OF AUTHORIZATION OF A SUBJECT TO USE A SUBSTANCE DELIVERY DEVICE
System and method for identification and verification of authorization of a subject to use a substance delivery device.
PREDICTION AND AVOIDANCE OF ADVERSE OXYGEN DESATURATION EVENTS IN PATIENTS RECEIVING SUPPLEMENTAL OXYGEN
The present disclosure is directed to systems and methods of controlling supplemental oxygen supply devices, the methods include: receiving data from one or more sensors of a patient device operably connected to a patient; using the data as an input to a machine learning model that predicts whether or not a change to a supply amount of an oxygen enriched gas from the supplemental oxygen supply device is to be made; and transmitting a control signal to the supplemental oxygen supply device based on the predicted change.
System and method for estimating an amount of a blood component in a volume of fluid
