摘要:
The present invention provides a hyperspectral imaging system which demonstrates changes in tissue oxygen delivery, extraction and saturation during shock and resuscitation including an imaging apparatus for performing real-time or near real-time assessment and monitoring of shock, including hemorrhagic, hypovolemic, cardiogenic, neurogenic, septic or burn shock. The information provided by the hyperspectral measurement can deliver physiologic measurements that support early detection of shock and also provide information about likely outcomes.
摘要:
This invention is directed to a device and a method for assessing a subject. The device has at least one impedance measuring element functionally connected to a programmable element, programmed to analyze an impedance measurement, and to provide an assessment of at least one respiratory parameter of the subject. In another embodiment, the device has at least one small-scale motion measuring element. In another embodiment, the device preferably has a high resolution lens, a camera, and a programmable element, which is programmed to analyze at least one physiological parameter of the subject. The physiological parameter is preferably obtained by measuring differential displacements in the camera's field of view. The method according to the present invention involves recording a physiological parameter, analyzing the parameter to make a prediction, and providing an indication of the prediction to a user.
