A wearable device includes: a base to be worn on a head of a user; a first sensor that is provided to the base to be at a distance from a surface of the user's head and measures a first signal relating to a temperature of the surface of the user's head; an estimation circuit that estimates a body temperature of the user based on the first signal; and a display that presents the body temperature of the user estimated by the estimation circuit.

In one embodiment, an ablation system includes a catheter including at least one electrode, and configured to be inserted into a chamber of a heart of a living subject, an ablation power generator configured to apply an electrical signal to the at least one electrode to ablate tissue of the chamber, at least one body surface patch configured to be applied to a body surface of the living subject, and provide at least one position signal, and a processor configured to compute an index of a measurement of diaphragm movement responsively to the at least one position signal, and perform an action responsively to the computed index.

A method, computer program product, and computing system for proactive encounter scanning is executed on a computing device and includes obtaining encounter information of a patient encounter. The encounter information is proactively processed to determine if the encounter information is indicative of one or more medical conditions and to generate one or more result set. The one or more result sets are provided to the user.

An electronic device according to an embodiment includes a speaker capable of outputting a sound wave, a sensor capable of acquiring an optical signal related to blood flow at a measured part of a user, and a controller configured to measure blood flow information of the measured part based on the optical signal. The controller estimates a sleep state of the user based on the blood flow information and controls, based on the sleep state, a sound wave outputted from the speaker.

An active implantable stimulating device (10) includes: (a) a tissue coupling unit (40) for being implanted directly onto a vagus nerve (Vn) of a patient, (b) an EEG-unit (70) for measuring an electroencephalogram of the patient, (c) an encapsulation unit (50) configured for being subcutaneously implanted, (d) an energy transfer lead (30) for transferring pulses of electrical and/or optical energy, (e) a signal transfer lead (60) for transferring signals between the EEG unit and the encapsulation unit. EEG electrodes (70a-70d) monitor the electric activity of the brain of a patient. The EEG signal is conveyed to the electronic circuit (53) in the form of EEG conditioned data. The electronic circuit analyses the EEG conditioned data to yield analysis results. The electronic circuit takes a decision to trigger energy pulses to stimulate the vagus nerve (VN).

Systems and methods for tracking performance are provided. A method includes monitoring a first amplitude of a first muscle activity for a plurality of time. The method includes generating a plurality of measures of neuromuscular work for the plurality of time points using the first amplitude. The method includes determining a plurality of muscle activation quotients for the plurality of time points, using the plurality of measures of neuromuscular work. The method includes defining a plurality of muscle activation zones using the plurality of muscle activation quotients, wherein individual muscle activation zones correspond to ranges of values of the plurality of muscle activation quotients. The method includes generating a visualization of the plurality of muscle activation quotients and the plurality of muscle activation zones for the plurality of time-points. The method also includes outputting the visualization to a display.

Systems and methods for assessing compliance with position therapy. In an embodiment, position therapy is provided to a user while the user is wearing a position therapy device. The position therapy comprises, by the device, collecting positional data, determining positions of the user over a time period based on the positional data, and, when it is determined that the user is in a target position, providing feedback to the user to influence the user to change to a non-target position. In addition, the device stores a duration of use in its memory. The duration of use indicates a duration that the user has used the wearable position therapy device in each of one or more positions. An assessment of the user's compliance with the position therapy is then provided based, at least in part, on the duration of use.

An adjustable measurement device is described that may include a housing, a power supply, a processor, a communication device, an elastic coupling member, a physiological sensor, and/or a clamp. The housing may be configured to attach to a wearable band that is wearable by a subject. The housing may include a chamber within the housing. The power supply, the processor, the communication device, the elastic coupling member, and or the physiological sensor may be disposed within the chamber. The elastic coupling member may couple the physiological sensor to the housing. A force exerted by the elastic coupling member on the physiological sensor may be in a direction through an opening towards a body part of a subject. As the subject wears the wearable band and the housing is coupled to the wearable band, the physiological sensor may be adjacent to or contact the subject.

An on-person portable device and/or app that allows for constant location monitoring of dementia patients is disclosed. Such a device and/or app also includes automated communication of facial recognition of persons proximally near such a patient as well as possible generation of certain music in response to patient status and/or location. The patient is provided the device and/or app for handling or wearing, such as a phone or pair of glasses, in order to follow location through GPS monitoring, and a reactive program therein that automatically views another person and provides an identification thereof coupled with a voice modulator within an earpiece or like device for memory stimulation pertaining to loved ones or friends, and the like. The same program may also provide the music response to comments, movement, or any other external stimuli to the subject patient, again, to evoke a memory stimulus, as well.

Aspects of the present disclosure provide a smart relaxation mask configured to output a stimulus and collect biometric information while the stimulus is output to determine if the subject is paying attention to the stimulus. If the subject is not focused on the stimulus, the mask adjusts at least one of an audio, visual, or haptic output. The stimulus is adjusted in an effort to shift the subject's attention to the stimulus and away from racing thoughts.
