摘要:
The present invention relates to systems and methods for characterizing at least one anatomical parameter of an upper airway of a patient by analysing spectral properties of an utterance, comprising: a mechanical coupler comprising means for restricting the jaw position of the patient; means for recording an utterance; and processing means for determining at least one anatomical parameter of the upper airway from the recorded utterance and comparing the recorded utterance to a threshold value. In addition the present invention relates to the use of the above mentioned systems as a diagnostics tool for assessing obstructive sleep apnea.
摘要:
A system (10) for assessing the health of a patient includes one or more sensors (32) which generate medical data representing a patient's oxygen saturation and a health assessment system (12) which determines a recovery response from an oxygen desaturation event detected from the medical data and generates a health assessment based on the patient's recovery response. The recovery response being determined by at least one of determining a time period from a detection of the oxygenation desaturation event to the patient reaching predetermined oxygen saturation, determining an increase in the oxygen saturation after a fixed amount of time after detection of the oxygenation desaturation event, and determining a rate of an increase in the oxygen saturation.

Systems for user behavior-trained clinical support. Features of the present invention monitor users to track their behavior while using medical devices/software. This information is combined with physiological parameters of patients to train new clinical decision support (CDS) algorithms to provide improvement in deterioration detection, alarm management, and decision and navigation support.
摘要:
A method is disclosed for determining anatomical properties of a patient, the patient having an oral cavity and a throat, comprising a) projecting at least one structured light pattern into the patient's oral cavity; b) detecting at least one reflected light pattern, each of the reflected light patterns emanating from reflection of a corresponding projected structured light pattern; c) analysing the at least one reflected structured light pattern in view of the at least one structured light pattern, thereby determining anatomical properties of the patient; and an associated imaging device.

A system (202) generates patient alarms using a stepped alarm scheme. The system (202) includes one or more processors (220) programmed to receive physiological scores and/or physiological parameter values; compare the physiological scores and/or the physiological parameter values to a plurality of alarm levels; in response to a physiological score and/or physiological parameter value falling within an uninhibited zone of the alarm levels, issue an alarm; and set a first inhibition period for the uninhibited alarm level after issuing the alarm.
摘要:
A system (38) and a method (150) for optimization of alarm settings of a clinical alarm algorithm. Clinical monitoring data (CMD) employed by the clinical alarm algorithm is acquired over a user-defined period of time. Proposed settings are determined for one or more parameters of the clinical alarm algorithm. The clinical monitoring algorithm is applied to the acquired CMD with the proposed settings to determine regeneration results predicting alarm load for different combinations of the proposed settings.
摘要:
A system, method and non-transitory computer-readable storage medium used to control the display of a display device. Controlling of the display device includes receiving data including a plurality of data points, each of the data points including a value along a first axis and a value along a second axis, dividing the data into a plurality of bins along the first axis, wherein the data is divided based on a physical attribute of the display device, determining, for one of the bins, whether an alternative data representation should be used, and displaying a plot of the data, wherein the alternative data representation is used for the one of the bins when it is determined that the alternative data representation should be used, wherein line plotting is used for the one of the bins when it is determined that the alternative data representation should not be used.
摘要:
A method for assisting a user in selecting audible alarm settings of a patient monitoring system for monitoring a patient is provided. A synthesis model is generated in response to 1) data indicative of audio features derived from audio recorded in the patient room, and 2) data indicative of vital signs recorded from the patient monitoring system. Sets of audio parameters indicative of respective plurality of audible alarm settings are then processed according to the synthesis model so as to generate respective outputs, e.g. indicative of audibility of the plurality of alarm sounds according to the audible alarm settings synthesized to be played in or outside the patient room. These outputs can then be presented to a user, so as to allow the user to evaluate e.g. alarm audibility and noise level impact of the plurality of audible alarm settings, and e.g. adjust the settings accordingly, such as alarm thresholds etc. The synthesis model may comprise an auralization module, so as to generate synthesized audio outputs to the user. The synthesis model may take into account actual room acoustics in or outside the patient room, so as to allow a precise calculation and/or audio synthesis of an alarm sound to be played in the environment. Alternatively, or additionally, the systhesis model can generate objective and/or subjective metrics that allows the user to find a suitable balance between alarm audibility and impact on noise level.
摘要:
A system to generate medical monitor alarm settings (10) which includes a normative analyzer (36) and/or observational analyzer (48) configured to receive (130) data from logs (32, 34) of a plurality of medical monitors (12), and generate (134, 138) one or more suggested alarm settings (26) based on a constructed model of the received log data.
