    Abstract: A tissue profile wellness monitor measures a physiological parameter, generates a tissue profile, defines limits and indicates when the tissue profile exceeds the defined limits. The physiological parameter is responsive to multiple wavelengths of optical radiation after attenuation by constituents of pulsatile blood flowing within a tissue site. The tissue profile is responsive to the physiological parameter. The limits are defined for at least a portion of the tissue profile.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for home monitoring and detection of febrile neutropenia in a patient are provided. The system includes a photoplethysmographic sensor for sensing photoplethysmographic signals of the patient, and one or more blood borne parameter sensors for sensing parameters in the patient's blood. A febrile neutropenia monitoring application receives information sensed by the photoplethysmography sensor and the one or more blood borne parameter sensors and determines, based on the received information, the presence or deterioration of febrile neutropenia. The method includes the steps of: sensing photoplethysmographic signals of the patient with a photoplethysmographic sensor worn by the patient; sensing blood borne parameters in the patient's blood with one or more blood borne parameter sensors; transmitting the sensed photoplethysmographic signals and blood borne parameters to a febrile neutropenia monitoring application; and determining, by the febrile neutropenia monitoring application, the presence or deterioration of febrile neutropenia based on the received information.

    Abstract: According to one embodiment of the present disclosure, a biometric sensor includes a flexible substrate, a first light-emitting part disposed on one side of the flexible substrate to output first light toward the body, a second light-emitting part disposed on one side of the flexible substrate to output second light different from the first light toward the body, an elastomer disposed on one side of the flexible substrate in a shape surrounding the first light-emitting part and the second light-emitting part, and a light-receiving part disposed on the other side of the flexible substrate to receive third light corresponding to the first light and fourth light corresponding to the second light.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to a wearable device for acquiring physiological information of a subject. To combine the advantages of a contact sensor and a contactless sensor, the wearable device comprises an optical emitter (10) for emitting light into the subject's skin, an optical sensor (20) for receiving light scattered back from the subject's skin in response to the emission of light into the subject's skin, the received light representing or allowing the derivation of physiological information of the subject, and a carrier (30) for being held at the subject's skin and for carrying said emitter (10) and said sensor (20) such that a light receiving area (12), at which the emitted light enters the subject's skin, substantially corresponds to a light reflecting area (22), at which at least part of the scattered light leaves the subject's skin and is received by said optical sensor, the optical sensor (20) is arranged between the optical emitter (10) and the light receiving area (12) and is at least partially transparent for the light emitted by the optical emitter or the optical emitter (10) is arranged between the optical sensor (20) and the light reflecting area (22) and is at least partially transparent for the light reflected from the light reflecting area.

    Abstract: In some examples, a device includes processing circuitry configured to receive first and second signals indicative of first and second physiological parameters, respectively, of a patient. The processing circuitry is also configured to determine a first estimate of a limit of autoregulation of the patient based on the first and second signals. The processing circuitry is further configured to determine a difference between the first estimate of the limit of autoregulation and one or more other estimates of the limit of autoregulation. The processing circuitry is configured to determine a weighted average of the first estimate and a previous value of the limit of autoregulation based on the difference between the first estimate and the one or more other estimates. The processing circuitry is configured to determine an autoregulation status based on the weighted average and output, for display via the display, an indication of the autoregulation status.

    Abstract: A hemostatic device is provided to stop bleeding at a puncture site on the wrist of a patient, the device comprising a transparent flexible band to be wrapped at the site where the bleeding is to be stopped, a curved frame having an inner peripheral side and possessing a first curved portion in its first half and a second curved portion in its second half, a first balloon provided on the inner peripheral side in the first half of the curved frame and a second balloon provided on the inner peripheral side in the second half of the curved frame. The bleeding from a first artery is stopped by compressing the first artery at the puncture site using inflation of the first balloon and the blood flow in the first artery is increased by compression of a second artery using inflation of the second balloon.
