11654237 · 2023-05-23 · ·

A system and method to configure a rule set used in connection with a medical monitoring system for monitoring patients and patient care equipment, especially medication delivery pumps, based on a variety of conditions and parameters associated with monitored biometric information and equipment information and for providing user-defined responses to those conditions and parameters.

System and Method For Utilization of Data From Remote Regulation and Monitoring of Drug Delivery

Aspects and embodiments of the present invention generally include a device for patient self-administration of a prescribed medication. The device makes available for administration the precise quantity of medication constituting a dose at times designated by a health care provider (HCP). Preferably, the device also detects and transmits information to a remote management system accessible to the HCP, including detected attempts to tamper with the device. Advantageously, HCPs may render oversight and control over the device and its use to mitigate risks associated with patients self-administering medication without in-person supervision. This control may include establishing prerequisites the patient must meet prior to a dose being made available, or remote deactivation of the device. This oversight by the HCP may include patient-specific and aggregate data analysis for optimization of treatment or evaluation of the safety and efficacy of a treatment. Furthermore, this oversight may be conducted via a web-based interface.

INTELLIGENT MEDICATION DELIVERY SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR DOSE RECOMMENDATION AND MANAGEMENT

Systems, devices, and techniques are disclosed for administering and tracking medicine to patients and providing health management capabilities for patients and caregivers. In some aspects, a method includes receiving one or more analyte values associated with a health condition of the patient user; receiving contextual data associated with the patient user obtained by the mobile computing device, where the obtained contextual data includes information associated with a meal; determining a medicine metric value associated with an amount of medicine active in the body of the patient user; autonomously calculating a dose of the medicine without input from the user based at least on the one or more analyte values, the medicine metric value, and the information associated with a meal; and continuously displaying the calculated dose of the medicine.

DIALYSIS SYSTEM AND DIALYSIS SYSTEM OPERATION METHOD

A dialysis system includes a dialysis apparatus, a measurement apparatus, and a control apparatus. The dialysis apparatus performs hemodialysis on a dialysis subject. The measurement apparatus measures a cerebral regional oxygen saturation of the dialysis subject. The control apparatus adjusts a hemodialysis operating condition by the dialysis apparatus so as to suppress decrease in the cerebral rSO2 based on the cerebral rSO2 of the dialysis subject measured by the measurement apparatus during operation of the hemodialysis by the dialysis apparatus.

Resuscitation and ventilation asynchrony monitor

Resuscitation and ventilation monitoring devices are provided. A device includes an inlet in fluid communication with airflows exchanged with lungs of a patient and an airflow meter for measuring characteristics of the airflows. A user may provide a controller with patient information, e.g., height, weight, gender, or age, via a measurement selector, enabling the controller to determine acceptable ranges of measured airflow characteristics. The device may determine a current mode of ventilation and associated ventilator settings based on the measured airflow characteristics. The device may also identify and filter out artifacts present in the ventilation signal, and determine whether a respiratory failure phenotype is present in the ventilation. If the current mode of ventilation and associated ventilator settings fall outside an acceptable range, the ventilation is classified as off-target and the controller may cause a sensory alarm to alert the user. The device may suggest a corrective action based on the type of off-target ventilation detected. The device may also continuously analyze ventilation to determine changes in lung compliance over time and to identify pathological changes over time. The device may work within a network of devices and user interfaces via wired or wireless communication, and is not restricted to or dependent on the type of ventilatory device with which a patient is being supported.

METHODS OF ENHANCING NEUROSTIMULATION DURING ACTIVITIES

Systems and methods of the present disclosure are directed to neural stimulation via non-invasive sensory stimulation. Non-invasive sensory stimulations can comprise audio stimulation, visual stimulation, mechanical stimulation, or a combination thereof. The combination and/or sequence of one or more of audio, visual, and mechanical brain stimulations can adjust, control or otherwise manage the frequency of the neural oscillations to provide beneficial effects to one or more cognitive states or cognitive functions of the brain, while mitigating or preventing adverse consequences on a cognitive state or cognitive function that stems from, for example, sleep deprivation, stress, hormonal imbalance, or other physical, physiological, or psychological conditions. In doing so, the present systems and methods can improve the cognitive potential of a person.

Method and device for enhanced blood flow

A non-invasive method and device for promoting a localized change in a flow of blood through a blood vessel in a limb segment of a body by a series of electrically stimulated contractions of muscle tissue in the limb segment, the method including the steps of: (a) providing a device including: (i) first, second and third electrodes, each adapted to operatively contact the limb segment; (ii) a signal generator, operatively connected to the electrodes, adapted to produce a series of electrical impulses to the limb segment via the electrodes, and (iii) a control unit adapted to control the signal generator to produce the series of electrical impulses; (b) positioning the electrodes on the limb segment, wherein the first electrode is positioned on a lower end of the lower leg, the second electrode is positioned on the lower leg, and the third electrode is positioned on an upper end of the lower leg, whereby the first and third electrodes are disposed on opposite ends of the lower leg, and the second electrode and one of the first and third electrodes are disposed on a same end of the lower leg; (c) effecting a sequence of muscular contractions of the lower leg, by operations including: (i) applying a first electrical impulse between the electrodes on the same end of the lower leg to induce a first muscular contraction of a first portion of the tissue; and (ii) applying at least a second electrical impulse between the first and third electrodes to induce a longitudinal muscular contraction of a second portion of the muscular tissue; and (d) repeating operations (i) and (ii), to repeatedly induce the contractions, to effect the increased flow of blood.
