A sensor interface is configured to receive a sensor signal. A transmitter generates a transmit signal. A receiver receives the signal corresponding to the transmit signal. Further, a monitor interface is configured to communicate a waveform to the monitor so that measurements derived by the monitor from the waveform are generally equivalent to measurements derivable from the sensor signal.

Controlling the interaction between an external device and an implanted device, including a method of controlling interaction between an external device and an implanted device, the method including at least the steps of: establishing communications between the implanted device and the external device; the external device determining an identification of the implant and comparing the identification with identifications in a stored list; if the device matches one of said identifications, then using a corresponding set of operating parameters to interact with said implant; and otherwise, not interacting with said device.

A medical alarm communications system comprises a pager like device to be kept near a patient. The pager like device communicates medical alerts regarding the patient to a remote central station, which can provide therapeutic and/or diagnostic assistance by communicating to the pager like device. When the pager like device determines that an alert should be sent to the central station, it attempts to establish communication with the central station according to a primary communication protocol. If this attempt is unsuccessful according to some predetermined criteria (e.g. too much time has elapsed before communication is established), then the pager like device generates a message to the patient indicative of the failure, and The attempts to establish communication with the central station according to a secondary communication protocol.

An arm mountable portable patient monitoring device configured to receive physiological information from a plurality of sensors attached to a patient via wired connections for on-patient monitoring of parameter measurements and wireless transmission of parameter measurements to separate monitoring devices. The arm mountable portable patient monitoring device includes a housing, a strap, a display, a first sensor port positioned on a first side of the housing configured to face toward a hand of the patient when the housing is secured to the arm of the patient, second and third sensor ports configured to receive signals from additional sensor arrangements via a wired connections, one or more signal processing arrangements configured to cause to be displayed measurements of oxygen saturation and pulse rate, and a transmitter configured to wirelessly transmit information indicative of the measurements of oxygen saturation and pulse rate to a separate monitoring device.

A sensor interface is configured to receive a sensor signal. A transmitter generates a transmit signal. A receiver receives the signal corresponding to the transmit signal. Further, a monitor interface is configured to communicate a waveform to the monitor so that measurements derived by the monitor from the waveform are generally equivalent to measurements derivable from the sensor signal.

A system, method, and non-transitory computer-readable medium The system includes a processor configured to receive ultrasound data from an ultrasound reflected wave reflected from specimen features in an organic specimen resultant from an ultrasound incident wave transmitted into the organic specimen; to identify each region having data obtained from anatomic model data related to the organic specimen that satisfies selection criteria in comparison to the received ultrasound data; and to repeat consecutively, if the number of identified regions is not equal to one and the number of times the selection criteria are adjusted is less than a specified maximum number of adjustments, removal of identified status from each identified region, adjustment of the selection criteria in accordance with adjustment rules and identification of each region having data obtained from anatomic model data that satisfies the adjusted selection criteria in comparison to the received ultrasound data.
