摘要:
The present invention is a system for monitoring a health state of a subject. The system is provided with: a measuring unit that chronologically measures the position of the subject in a facility in which the subject resides or stays; and an information processing unit that determines a health state of the subject by determining whether a chronological change in the position of the subject satisfies a predetermined determination condition.

A smart premises controller unit for processing data received from a plurality of sensors and for controlling and monitoring one or more pieces of equipment in at least one room in a premises responsive to the processing includes an alarm resolver to activate an alarm, a climate resolver to control a climate in the room and a presence resolver to determine at least the presence of a human in the room. Each resolver receives input from a subset of the plurality of sensors and each the resolver comprises a sensor processor and scorer for at least one of its associated subset of sensors. Each resolver comprises a set of models for each of its associated sensors according to its type of resolver. Each sensor processor and scorer matches its sensor data against its models to produce a score for each of its associated models.

Apparatus for detection of human falls comprises: an acceleration detector, for detecting vibration events, typically placed on a floor, a microphone, located in association with the acceleration detector for detection of corresponding sound events, and a classification unit to classify concurrent events from the microphone and the acceleration detector, thereby to determine whether a human fall is indicated. If the event appears to be a human fall, then an alarm is raised.

A system that monitors various conditions of a plurality of hospital beds located in different rooms of a healthcare facility is provided. Alternatively or additionally, other types of equipment may be monitored by the system. Various configurations of network interface units that are coupleable to or integrated into a hospital bed are also disclosed. The system receives data from the hospital beds and/or other equipment and initiates a communication to a wireless communication device of at least one designated caregiver in response to the received data being indicative of an alarm condition.

A system for use in a healthcare facility having a nurse call system with a nurse call computer located remotely from patient rooms is provided. The system includes a hospital bed having communication circuitry configured for communicating data from the hospital bed. An interface unit is spaced from the hospital bed. The interface unit has a first connector to which the hospital bed couples via a wired connection, a second connector which is communicatively coupled to the nurse call system, and circuitry comprising a third connector for connection to an external device.

摘要:
Apparatus for a monitoring and signalling system such as a home health care system includes a plurality of sensors operative to monitor the occurrence of activities performed by an individual in his or her residence and to produce binary coded signals indicative of the occurrence of the monitored activities. Each signal comprises six successive identical messages within a one-second interval, with each message including a binary word identifying the monitoring and signalling system, the particular sensor originating the signal, and the nature of the monitored activity. Each message further includes a preamble and a pair of interwords on opposite sides of the binary word.The apparatus in accordance with the invention includes a microprocessor which operates to repetitively sample each signal originating with a sensor to determine the binary content of the signal and to extract a binary word from a message while rejecting preambles, interwords and "glitches" (noise) present in the signal. The extracted binary word is then tested as to its satisfaction of predetermined requirements. If the binary word of one message satisfies these requirements, an interval of time is established during which a binary word of the next message is required to be extracted from the next message and also satisfy the predetermined requirements before permitting further processing of the second binary word.
