A subject information acquisition apparatus comprises a casing in which a transmissive member capable of transmitting acoustic waves and laser beams therethrough is provided; a light irradiating unit disposed inside the casing so as to irradiate a subject with laser beams with the transmissive member interposed; an acoustic wave probe disposed inside the casing so as to receive acoustic waves with the transmissive member interposed; and a scanning mechanism disposed inside the casing so as to move the light irradiating unit and the acoustic wave probe in relation to the casing, wherein the casing is configured to be movable on the subject.

The present invention is an adjustment means for a mandibular advancement device. The mandibular advancement device being of the type having both intraoral and extraoral portions, including a body portion that is at the interface between the intraoral and extraoral portions and thereby is part intraoral and part extraoral. The extraoral portion includes a lower arm that is substantially straight and extends directly outwardly from the extraoral part of the body portion, and a curved upper arm that curves upwardly from the lower arm and back towards the face of a person using the device. The posterior end of the upper arm includes a pad assembly that is adapted to make contact with, and apply pressure to, the subnasal maxillary bone of the wearer. A substantial portion of the lower arm is engageable with motorised means that are encapsulated within the body portion and are adapted to engage with the lower arm and cause it to slide further out of, or slidably retract further into, the body portion.

A pulse diagnosis apparatus includes a base, a bearing and a plurality of sensing module. The base has a motion module. The motion module is disposed on the base and moves back and forward in a first direction. The bearing is disposed on the motion module and includes a first face and a second face. Each sensing module includes a driving element, a flexible element and a sensing unit. The driving element moves in the first direction and passes through the bearing. The driving element includes a first terminal and a second terminal. The first terminal is adjacent to the second face. The second terminal is adjacent to the first face. The flexible element is hitched up the driving element. Two terminals of the flexible element are against the second terminal and the bearing. The sensing unit is disposed on the second terminal.

Systems and apparatuses for securing and protecting diabetes management devices, such as continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) devices and insulin infusion sets. An apparatus comprises a base having multiple pairs of arms which can be attached to a band. The apparatus also comprises a shell for retaining a diabetes management device and which may be unitarily formed with, or removably attached to, the base. A system may include an apparatus, a diabetes management device retained in the shell of the apparatus, and a band attached to the base of the apparatus. The band may be placed around a body part of a user, such as an arm or the abdomen. A system can include an adhesive patch which can adhere to the shell of an apparatus and which has an adhesive layer overlaid with multiple liners having cutlines formed therebetween.

An electrocardiography device (ECG device) designed for use in combination with a magnetic resonance device, including: a carrier unit; a receiving unit designed to mount on the carrier unit; an electrode; an electrode conductor connecting the electrode to the receiving unit, wherein the electrode conductor is stabilized at least partially by way of a shapeable guide element.

A blood pressure monitor configured to removably mount to a cuff in a substantially symmetrical position with respect to a width of the cuff can include a housing defining an interior, a first port, and a second port. The first port can: secure to a first prong of the cuff when the cuff is mounted in a first orientation; receive and secure to a second prong of the cuff when the cuff is mounted in a second orientation; and enable fluid communication between the interior and at least one of a first fluid passage within the first prong and a second fluid passage within the second prong. The second port can: secure to the second prong of the cuff when the cuff is mounted in the first orientation; and receive and secure to the first prong of the cuff when the cuff is mounted in the second orientation.

A wearable device for detecting and/or measuring physiological information from a subject includes a housing, at least one optical emitter supported by the housing, at least one optical detector supported by the housing, a first light guide supported by the housing, a second light guide supported by the housing, a motion sensor supported by the housing, and a processor supported by the housing. The processor is configured to calculate footsteps, distinguish footsteps from heart beats, and to remove footstep motion artifacts from signals produced by the at least one optical detector. Also, the processor is configured to process signals produced by the at least one optical detector to determine subject heart rate and to produce integrity data about the subject heart rate. The process is further configured to generate a multiplexed output serial data string comprising the subject heart rate and the integrity data.

The present invention concerns the field of medical technology and relates to a device for the measurement, diagnosis, and/or therapy of the strength of the human finger, hand, arm, and/or shoulder, as can for example be used to measure bending strength. The object of the invention is to specify a device with which a multi-functional measurement, diagnosis, and/or therapy of the strength of the human finger, hand, arm, and/or shoulder is possible on one device. The object is attained by a device composed at least of a base plate and force-measuring sensors, of which at least one sensor comprises a puller bolt passing therethrough and this force-measuring sensor is positioned in a stationary manner on one side of the base plate and is connected to an actuation part in a force-fit via the puller bolt, furthermore in the region of the base plate a guide for additional force-measuring sensors is present and movable auxiliary devices can also be present.
