摘要:
The invention relates to a device, in particular a patient monitoring system with a mobile terminal unit (1) for acquiring patient data. The measured data is transferred from the terminal unit (1) via a short-range radio technology (2) (e.g. Bluetooth) to a data monitor (3) arranged at the patient's bedside when the patient is in the vicinity thereof. If necessary, communication can be switched to a long-range radio technology (7) (e.g. WLAN) to ensure interruption-free data transmission while the patient moves around.

The invention provides automatic control of a deep brain stimulation system (2) using tremor detection based on accelerometer signals. Because no manual interventions are necessary, the ease of use for the patient (1) is greatly enhanced. Furthermore the autonomy of the patients in normal daily life is increased. The present invention also results in a reduced energy consumption and consequently longer battery life. On the other side with the present invention an optimal treatment is possible, adjusted to the patient's symptoms without the help of a physician.

The invention relates to an emergency response system. The emergency response system (10) comprises a central station (4) for receiving information about emergencies, whereby position information of a victim is provided and stored in a look-up table (6) of the central station (4). The central station addresses a list (7) of publicly available actuatable emergency response devices and selects a suitable device. The central station (4) transmits a trigger signal by means of a suitable communication network (3) to the selected remote actuatable emergency response device (14), which comprises communication means (13) for activating the signaling means (15) upon receipt of the trigger signal. Also, the actuatable emergency response device (14) comprises storage means (11) arranged to store the position information of the emergency response device and the provided position information of the victim. Upon receipt of a suitable signal from the communication means (13), the signaling means (15) start broadcasting a message arranged to attract as many potential emergency responders to the victim as possible. The emergency response device (14) comprises navigation means (20), arranged to provide a routing to the victim, which is being fed-back to the responder by the user interface. The invention further relates to an emergency response device and a method for summoning an emergency responder and for routing said responder to the victim.
摘要:
There is provided an apparatus for use in diagnosing the presence of obstructive sleep apnea in a patient, the apparatus comprising a processor configured to receive signals representing measurements of a patient's breathing obtained during a plurality o breathing cycles by the patient while the patient is awake, convert the signals into the frequency domain and to determine a value for at least one parameter based on an analysis of the frequency-domain converted signals in one or more frequency bands covering frequencies below 100 Hz.

The invention relates to a method of ensuring the quality of service in a broadcast network (1) which also comprises apparatuses (Q, Z) that do not have their own quality of service functionality. An apparatus operating as a bandwidth manager (BM) monitors the data traffic in the network and, in the case of risk of the ensured quality of service, it sends control messages (A) to the source (Q) of the data stream, which messages cause this source to reduce the data stream. The control messages (A) can be particularly transmitted through the simulated transmitter of the target (Z).
摘要:
The reliable and controlled allocation of network elements particularly medical sensors (2) to a network (4) without prior configuration of the wireless sensors or of the network administration system can be carried out using an allocation unit (1) for allocating network elements (2) to a wireless network (4), which allocation unit (1) comprises a transmitter which transmits, in a user-controlled manner, a code to a first network element (2), which code causes the first network element (2) to transmit its ID together with the code (encoded ID) so that the latter can be received by a second network element (3) which allocates the first network element (2) to its network (4).
摘要:
An electrophysiological device comprises a lead-off detector in the form of an electrical impedance detector and further a path from a supply voltage to a second voltage. The path comprises segments having electrical impedances, at least one of which is to be ascertained, and a measuring vertex. The electrical impedance detector further comprises a discriminator connected to the measuring vertex and arranged to evaluate an electrical measuring signal observed at the measuring vertex.
