COMBINATION SPIROMETER-INHALER
20210402110 · 2021-12-30 ·

Various spirometer-inhaler systems and devices are disclosed. The spirometer-inhaler system may estimate physiological parameters of a user based on the user's inhaled and/or exhaled breaths received by the spirometer-inhaler device. The spirometer-inhaler device may comprise one or more flow paths. A first flow path may direct medication from a medicine canister to an opening of the device. A second flow path may direct a user's exhaled breath from the opening of the device to one or more flow measurement devices.

Wrist-worn device for coordinating patient care

A feedback device for an acute care provider includes: at least one motion sensor; a haptic output component for providing feedback having a varying haptic pattern to the acute care provider regarding performance of a resuscitation activity; and a controller. The controller can be configured to receive and process a signal representative of performance of the resuscitation activity from the at least one motion sensor, compare the acute care provider's performance of the resuscitation activity to a target performance of the resuscitation activity, and cause the haptic output component to provide haptic feedback to the acute care provider by changing the haptic pattern based, at least in part, on the signal from the at least one motion sensor and the comparison of the acute care provider's performance to the target performance of the resuscitation activity. The device can be adapted to be wrist-worn by the acute care provider.

SMART PLATFORM FOR STRESS REDUCTION AND SLEEP PROMOTION
20210386964 · 2021-12-16 · ·

The present invention provides systems and methods for management and orchestration of a fleet of remote Internet-of-Things (IoT) devices. The present invention includes a platform for onboarding, provisioning, and managing remote IoT devices throughout their lifetime. The platform includes portals for manufacturers, vendors, and consumers to access device data and sensor data collected by the devices. The data collected by the portal is used to control the fleet of remote IoT devices as well as make recommendations, e.g., for sleep promotion and stress reduction.

Blood filtration systems
20210379264 · 2021-12-09 ·

A blood filtration system can reduce the amount of plasma constituents (e.g., water and/or electrolytes) in the blood of the patient, and accordingly increase the hematocrit value of the patient. The blood filtration system (e.g., a controller, or the like) can determine a hematocrit value of a patient. The blood filtration system can determine a venous pressure of vasculature of a patient. The blood filtration system can compensate for pressure head in a component of a blood circuit (e.g., a withdrawal line of a catheter), for example to improve the accuracy of the venous pressure determination. The blood filtration system can determine one or more resistance characteristics of a blood circuit for the blood filtration system. The resistance characteristics can correspond to a resistance to a flow of blood through a component of the blood circuit.
