COORDINATING MUSCULOSKELETAL AND CARDIOVASCULAR HEMODYNAMICS
20170216706 · 2017-08-03 ·

The present invention is generally directed to methods, systems, and computer program products for coordinating musculoskeletal and cardiovascular hemodynamics, and more directly to stationary and non-stationary exercise equipment that include adjustable behaviors and are used with repetitive activities. The equipment is adjusted automatically in real-time to alter the work output, cadence, and/or timing of the user's physical activity in response to their monitored cardiovascular and musculoskeletal signals to achieve and maintain a targeted coordination of their heart and musculoskeletal pump cycle timing.

REHABILITATION ASSISTANCE APPARATUS, REHABILITATION ASSISTANCE SYSTEM, REHABILITATION ASSISTANCE METHOD, AND RECORDING MEDIUM

A rehabilitation assistance apparatus 1 includes: an acquisition unit 211 configured to acquire at least one of an image of a subject who is doing exercise for rehabilitation, audio of the subject, and biological information of the subject; a calculation unit 212 configured to calculate a fatigue level of the subject based on at least one of the image, the audio, and the biological information; a generation unit 213 configured to generate feedback information related to the rehabilitation, based on the fatigue level; and an output unit 23 configured to output the feedback information.

Garment system including at least one sensor and at least one actuator responsive to the sensor and related methods

Embodiments disclosed herein relate to a garment system including at least one sensor and at least one actuator that operates responsive to sensing feedback from the at least one sensor to cause a flexible compression garment to selectively constrict or selectively dilate, thereby compressing or relieving compression against at least one body part of a subject. Such selective constriction or dilation can improve muscle functioning or joint functioning during use of motion-conducive equipment, such as an exercise bike or rowing machine.

METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR MONITORING ACTUAL PATIENT TREATMENT PROGRESS USING SENSOR DATA

A method includes receiving treatment data pertaining to a user capable of using a treatment device to perform a treatment plan and receiving activity data pertaining to the user while the user engages in at least one activity. The method also includes generating treatment information using the treatment data and the activity data and writing to an associated memory, for access by a healthcare professional, the treatment information. The method also includes modifying at least one aspect of the treatment plan in response to receiving, from the healthcare professional, treatment plan input including at least one modification to the at least one aspect of the treatment plan.

APPARATUS FOR THE PHYSICAL TRAINING OF AT LEAST ONE OF THE LIMBS OF A LIVING BEING
20210307997 · 2021-10-07 ·

Apparatus (1) for the physical training of at least one of the limbs (40) of a living being, comprising a cuff (2) comprising an inflatable pouch (3), a device (4) for inflating the pouch (3), a system (5) for venting the pouch (3), a control unit (9) controlling the inflation device (4), said inflatable pouch (3) and the cuff (2) surrounding the pouch (3) being able to be positioned around a limb (40) that is to be trained so as to make it possible, when the pouch (3) is in the inflated state, to reduce the blood circulation through said limb (40). The training apparatus (1) comprises an air reserve (6) connected to the pouch (3) for transfer of air between the pouch (3) and the air reserve (6) at least when the pouch is deformed, and a pressure sensor (7) configured to measure the pressure of the air circuit, at least part of which is formed by the fluidic connection (8) between the inflatable pouch (3) and the air reserve (6).

ATTENTION AND EXERTION BASED SAFETY MECHANISMS IN EXERCISE DEVICES

The present disclosure provides for attention and exertion based safety mechanisms in exercise devices by: identifying a user exercising on an exercise device while the exercise device is in a first state; monitoring a physical state and an attentiveness level of the user while the exercise device is in the first state, wherein monitoring the attentiveness level includes monitoring targets of a gaze of the user within a time window and a consistency of the gaze within the time window; determining, based on the physical state and the attentiveness level of the user, that the user is experiencing a risk of injury above a predefined threshold; and adjusting the exercise device from the first state to a second state to alleviate the risk of injury.
