Temperature sensors are configured to sense a temperature for the sleeper and transmit temperature readings. A controller is configured to receive temperature readings; and send to a heating subsystem instructions to initiate a warming process that raises a distal temperature of the sleeper more than a proximal temperature of the sleeper. The heating subsystem that may include a heating element that, when engaged, can raise the distal temperature of the sleeper more than the proximal temperature of the sleeper.

A sensing system for sensing a potential complication at a venous catheter site. The system includes a sensor module for attachment at the site of the catheter. The sensor module includes a pressure sensor configured to generate pressure data representing measured pressure at the site of the catheter; a temperature sensor configured to generate temperature data representing measured temperature at the site of the catheter; and two pairs of bio impedance electrodes that generate bioelectrical signals representing bioelectrical activity at the site of venous catheter and a transmitter for transmitting the pressure, temperature data and bio impedance data. The system also includes a computing device configured to receive the response signal that includes the generated pressure, temperature and bio impedance data; and transmit the pressure temperature and bio impedance data to a user device for comparing the generated pressure temperature bio impedance data to threshold values indicative of intravenous complications.

A system and method for providing sensory relief from distractibility, inattention, anxiety, fatigue, and/or sensory issues to a user in need. The user can be autistic/neurodiverse, or neurotypical. The system can be configured to connect to a datastore storing one or more sensory thresholds specific to a user of a wearable device of the system, the sensory thresholds selected from auditory, visual or physiological sensory thresholds; record, using one or more sensors of the wearable device, a sensory input stimulus to the user; compare the sensory input stimulus with the sensory thresholds to determine an intervention to be provided to the user, the intervention configured to provide the user relief from distractibility, inattention, anxiety, fatigue, or sensory issues; and provide the intervention to the user, the intervention comprising filtering, in real-time, an audio signal presented to the user or an optical signal presented to the user.

An apparatus including a controller can determine a rate of change of a blood glucose level of a subject from blood glucose data and determine if there is a risk of the blood glucose level going high or low.

A pump device includes a pump driver comprising a first diaphragm and a second diaphragm, the first and second diaphragms each comprising a middle portion bounded by an outer portion, the first and second diaphragms being spatially separated from each other at the respective outer portions, and coupled together at the respective middle portions. The pump also includes a fluid passageway and a pump chamber fluidly connected to the fluid passageway, wherein the pump chamber comprises a moveable wall coupled to the pump driver at the middle portions of the first and second diaphragms such that a fluid movement between the pump chamber and the fluid passageway is induced by movement of the middle portions. An input device is configured to obtain a target flow rate. A controller is configured to operate the pump driver and a flow regulator based on signals received from a flow detector.

A patient interface is configured to deliver a flow of positive pressure respiratory gas to an entrance of a patients airways. The patient interface includes an elastomeric support wall forming at least part of a plenum chamber configured to receive the flow of positive pressure respiratory gas. The patient interface also includes an elastomeric support flange positioned at an end of the elastomeric support wall and extending radially inward from the support wall. The support flange has a flap portion at a central superior region of the support flange that extends further in the radially inward direction than the rest of the support flange. In addition, a foam cushion is mounted on the support flange. The foam cushion is configured to form a seal with the patients face and includes an attachment surface that is in contact with an outer surface of the support flange.

A sieve bed assembly monitoring system is disclosed. The system includes a sieve bed assembly including a canister having an intake; adsorbent material to produce oxygen enriched air from compressed air in a swing adsorption process; and an identification device including identification data for the sieve bed assembly, wherein the identification data is capable of uniquely identifying the sieve bed assembly. The system includes an oxygen concentrator having a retention mechanism to retain the sieve bed assembly, a compressor supplying compressed air to the intake of the canister, a controller, a transceiver and a reader operable to read the identification data from the identification device. The controller reads the identification data and transmits the read identification data via the transceiver. A remote external device receives the read identification data from transceiver.

Methods and systems are provided for anesthetic agent leakage diagnostics. In one embodiment, a method for diagnosing leaks in an anesthetic vaporizer includes calculating a leakage rate based on measurements of an anesthetic agent level in a sump of the anesthetic vaporizer, the measurements received from a fluid level sensor at a first time and a second time, and outputting a maintenance alert responsive to the leakage rate exceeding a threshold.

A medicine temperature control device which is attachable to or detachable from a medicine pressure injection system and a driving method thereof are provided. A medicine temperature control device which is attachable to or detachable from a medicine pressure injection system includes a pressurization module which includes an expansion unit which expands to pressurize a container containing a medicine, a controller which supplies and pressurizes a fluid to the expansion unit and controls a temperature of the medicine, and a power source which supplies a power to drive the controller; and a temperature control module which includes a temperature control chamber to control a temperature of the medicine.

Systems and methods are provided for identifying a therapeutic VR activity or exercise for a subject/patient based on the subject's impairments, dynamically adjusting a VR activity for a patient, and identifying potential impairments based on a patient's performance in a VR activity. Patients may each have various physical, neurological, cognitive, and/or sensory impairments to be treated. Not all therapeutic activities may be appropriate for some patients and their impairments. A VR therapeutic activity platform may increase patient engagement and challenge patients at more appropriate times by better matching activities corresponding to a patient's impairments and dynamically adjusting each VR activity based on performance to offer a challenging and rewarding therapeutic experience.
