摘要:
Systems and methods for classifying breathing disorders of subjects are based on the respiratory response to a change in a pressure level of a pressurized flow of breathable gas. The change presents a breathing challenge to a subject. The challenge may be limited to the inspiratory breathing phase. The inspiratory pressure level may be lower than the expiratory pressure level during challenges.

摘要:
Systems and methods to provide light therapy to a subject use one or more light sources configured to emit electromagnetic radiation in multiple stages using multiple wavelengths. By virtue of the emitted electromagnetic radiation impinging on the subject, the phase of the circadian rhythm of the subject is modified.
摘要:
This disclosure pertains to a system configured to control light exposure for circadian phase management and/or light deficient disorders of a subject. The system comprises a user interface, physiological sensors configured to generate output signals conveying physiological data of the subject, and a light control valve configured to block or reduce blue light ambient radiation reaching eyes of the subject. Processors are in communication with the user interface, the physiological sensors, the light control valve, and radiation generators. The processors cause the system to receive physiological goals of the subject, determine a light control plan based on the physiological goals, the physiological data, environmental data, and time data. The system operates the light control valve to block or reduce blue light ambient radiation based on the light control plan, and generate, using the one or more radiation generators, therapeutic light radiation based on the light control plan.
摘要:
Systems and methods to provide light therapy to a subject use a light source configured to emit pulses of electromagnetic radiation consisting substantially of blue light. By virtue of the emitted pulses of electromagnetic radiation within a particular range of wavelengths impinging on an eye or eyelid of the subject, the phase of the circadian rhythm of the subject is shifted. Such a shift may be accomplished in such a way that the level of melatonin production is not substantially suppressed.
