A method and an apparatus for assessing an effect of a relaxation stimulus exposed to a human have been disclosed. The method comprises the steps of providing a skin conductance signal measured at an area of the human's skin through a time interval; detecting peaks in the skin conductance signal through the time interval; determining a rate of the peaks through the time interval; and determining the effect of the relaxation stimulus based on the determined rate of peaks through the time interval.

A device, system, and method for facilitating a sleep cycle in a subject suing a peri COVID vaccination period, comprising determining a current awake or sleep stage of a person; automatically defining a desired sleep cycle pattern, dependent on the current awake or sleep stage of the person; generating an audio or optical stimulation pattern by an automated processor; entraining brainwaves of the brain of the person with the stimulation pattern corresponding to the desired sleep cycle pattern, to thereby induce a sleep cycle in the person according to the sleep cycle pattern; and administering the SARS-Cov-2 vaccination to the person.

An ear-worn electronic device includes a right ear device comprising a first processor and a left ear device comprising a second processor communicatively coupled to the first processor. A physiologic sensor module comprises one or more physiologic sensors configured to sense at least one physiologic parameter from a wearer. A motion sensor module comprises one or more sensors configured to sense movement of the wearer. The first and second processors are coupled to the physiologic and motion sensor modules. The first and second processors are configured to produce a three-dimensional virtual sound environment comprising relaxing sounds, generate verbal instructions within the three-dimensional virtual sound environment that guide the wearer through a predetermined mental exercise that promotes wearer relaxation, and generate verbal commentary that assesses wearer compliance with the predetermined mental exercise in response to one or both of the sensed movement and the at least one physiologic parameter.

Methods and systems for assessing characteristics of a lung of a patient. A method includes, during an applied positive end expiratory pressure, identifying a first position of a patient, acquiring first impedance data representative of at least a region of patient's lung when the patient is in the first position, during the applied positive end expiratory pressure, identifying a second different position of a patient, acquiring second impedance data representative of at least the region of patient's lung when the patient is in the second position, comparing the first impedance data with the second impedance data, and determining whether the applied positive end expiratory pressure is sufficient to effectuate recruitment.

Peritoneal dialysis, such as automated peritoneal dialysis (“APD”) is provided with any one or more or all of the following sensing or feedback features: impedance sensing to detect peritonitis, temperature sensing to detect peritonitis, bio-MEMS sensing to detect peritonitis, and glucose control for diabetes patients, wherein each sensing or feedback feature analyzes patient effluent fluid or fluid dwelling within a patient's peritoneal cavity.

An intelligent psychological assessment and intervention system based on an independent space, comprising a psychological intervention cabin and a central database which achieves data interaction with the psychological intervention cabin. The psychological intervention cabin comprises a housing, a data acquisition module, a data processing module, and an intervention module; the data acquisition module acquires physiological and psychological data of a subject; the data processing module performs operations on the acquired data, establishes a multi-dimensional state point of the subject according to a mathematical model of the data processing module, matches it with data in the central database, finds a suitable intervention procedure for the subject, and guides the intervention module to carry out intervention; in the intervention process, the data acquisition module continuously acquires the physiological and psychological data of the subject, and the data processing module forms a new multi-dimensional state point according to new data and re-matches it to adjust the intervention procedure. By repeating this cycle, the intervention procedure is continuously adjusted in the intervention process to seek a most suitable intervention solution for the subject, and an optimal intervention effect is achieved.
