Systems and methods for sleep staging
The present disclosure describes a sleep staging system. The system comprises: one or more sensors configured to generate output signals conveying information related to breathing parameters of subject during a respiratory therapy session; and one or more physical computer processors configured by computer readable instructions to: determine, based on the output signals, one or more breathing features of individual breaths of the subject; determine a distribution of the one or more breathing features over a plurality of time windows, at least one of the time windows having a length of at least 60 seconds; determine sleep states of the subject by mapping the distribution of the breathing features to one or more sleep states using a sleep stage classifier model, the sleep stage classifier model configured to determine the sleep states; and provide feedback indicating the sleep states during the respiratory sleep session.
Adjustment of target interface location between separated fluid components in a centrifuge
A fluid separation device includes a centrifuge in which a fluid is separated into at least two components, with an interface therebetween. At least a portion of one of the separated fluid components is removed from the centrifuge and flows through a vessel. Light is reflected off of the separated fluid component in the vessel and received and analyzed to determine its main wavelength. If the main wavelength is higher than a maximum value, a target location of the interface is changed. If the main wavelength is less than the maximum value, then the location of the interface is compared to the target location. When the interface is sufficiently close to the target location, the optical density of the separated fluid component in the vessel is compared to a minimum value. If the optical density is less than the minimum value, the target location of the interface is changed.
VENTILATION SYSTEM COMPRISING AT LEAST ONE VENTILATOR AND AT LEAST ONE DIAGNOSIS DEVICE AND METHOD OF OPERATING
Ventilation system (having a ventilator and having a diagnostic device, wherein the ventilator comprises a ventilation unit for generating a respiratory gas flow for ventilation and a detection unit (for detecting a ventilation signal characteristic for the respiratory gas flow over time. The diagnostic device comprises a sensor unit for detecting a diagnostic signal over time. The synchronization unit is operationally connected to the detection unit and the sensor unit and is suitable and configured for studying a time curve of the ventilation signal and a time curve of the diagnostic signal respectively for a signal change caused by the same event and bringing the curve of the ventilation signal and the curve of the diagnostic signal into chronological correspondence so that the event occurs simultaneously in both signal curves.

CORRELATION BETWEEN INTRAPERITONEAL PRESSURE ("IPP") MEASUREMENTS AND PATIENT INTRAPERITONEAL VOLUME ("IPV") METHODS, APPARATUSES, AND SYSTEMS
Methods, apparatuses, and systems for determining a correlation between intraperitoneal pressure (“IPP”) measurements and patient intraperitoneal volume (“IPV”) are disclosed. In an example, an apparatus is configured to determine a maximum fill volume of dialysate to be pumped into a peritoneal cavity of a patient. The apparatus also determines a plurality of iterations to achieve the maximum fill volume and a volume of the dialysate to be pumped for each of the iterations. For each iteration, the apparatus causes a dialysis machine to pump the dialysate to the peritoneal cavity based on the determined volume for that iteration, records IPP measurement output data from a pressure sensor, records or determines a total accumulated fill volume, and creates a data point for a personalized patient model corresponding to a correlation between the IPP measurement output data and the total accumulated fill volume.
