Device and method for fast acquisition of vital signs
10674922 · 2020-06-09 · ·

The present invention is directed to a self-contained hand-held device that obtains vital signs accurately, simultaneously, comfortably, and quickly. Unlike currently used devices that require trained personnel and the attachment of sensors to the different parts of the patient's body, this device can obtain all vital signs +ECG and pulse-ox by being held by the patient for approximately half a minute. The device contains sensors on the hand-held unit as well as on the individual/disposable mouthpiece. The method of the present invention includes simultaneously acquiring the following measurements: temperature, pulse rate, breathing rate, blood pressure, electrocardiogram, and pulse-ox waveform and blood oxygen level.

20200170536 · 2020-06-04 ·

Physiological monitoring can be provided through a lightweight wearable monitor that includes two components, a flexible extended wear electrode patch and a reusable monitor recorder that removably snaps into a receptacle on the electrode patch. The wearable monitor sits centrally (in the midline) on the patient's chest along the sternum oriented top-to-bottom. The placement of the wearable monitor in a location at the sternal midline, with its unique narrow hourglass-like shape, significantly improves the ability of the wearable monitor to cutaneously sense cardiac electrical potential signals, particularly the P-wave and, to a lesser extent, the QRS interval signals indicating ventricular activity in the ECG waveforms. Additionally, the monitor recorder includes an ECG sensing circuit that measures raw cutaneous electrical signals and performs signal processing prior to outputting the processed signals for sampling and storage.
