摘要:
The device for measuring range of motion of an ankle (10) provides for angular measurement of the range of motion of a patient's ankle, and includes a foot rest (12) having a base (14), a pair of sidewalls (16, 18) and an inclined upper surface (20). A foot retainer (22) releasably receives the patient's foot (F). A mounting plate (24) is slidably mounted to one of the pair of sidewalls (16, 18). The lower end (36) of an elongated rod (32) is rotatably mounted to the mounting plate (24). An inclinometer (42) is secured to the elongated rod (32). A retaining bar (44) is secured to the elongated rod (32), adjacent its upper end (34). The retaining bar (44) is adapted for positioning adjacent a calf muscle (C) of the patient when the patient's foot (F) is received in the foot retainer (22).

Systems and methods for non-invasive respiratory rate measurement are disclosed. In some embodiments, a system comprises a wearable member including an energy transmitter configured to project energy into tissue of a user. An energy receiver generates a multichannel signal based on a first received portion of the energy, the received portion of energy being received through the tissue of the user. A respiratory rate calculation system includes a pre- processing module for filter noise from the signal. A spectrum module determines a spectrum of the signal. A respiratory rate processing module determines a first respiratory rate from the spectrum of the signal. A noise reference and one or more second respiratory rates are obtained. A third respiratory rate is determined based on the first respiratory rate, the noise reference, and the one or more second respiratory rates. A communication module provides a message based on the third respiratory rate.

Wearable technologies, such as wearable health monitors, and methods of use are provided. In some embodiments, the wearable technology can be worn at the wrist of an individual and can use an accelerometer, pulse oximeter, and electrocardiogram to measure heart rate, oxygen saturation, blood pressure, pulse wave velocity, and activity. This information can then be provided to the individual. The individual can alter their behaviors and relationships with their own health by using features such as notifications and auto-tagging to better understand their own stress, diet, sleep, and exercise levels over various time periods and subsequently make appropriate behavioral changes.

La presente invención se relaciona con un marco estereotáxico para las extremidades, que garantiza la posición fija y reproducible de la extremidad, logrando mantener las mismas condiciones geométricas de los dispositivos de medición o tratamiento respecto a la extremidad, o parte de ella, durante el estudio o la terapia. El marco comprende un soporte de posicionamiento y fijación de la extremidad y un sistema de medición o tratamiento, que incluye un lugar geométrico donde se ubica el dispositivo de medición o tratamiento, lo que garantiza que la posición relativa de dicho dispositivo respecto a la región de la extremidad bajo examen o tratamiento sea reproducible.
摘要:
Disclosed are techniques for determining a severity of motion disorder symptoms by receiving sensor data from one or more sensors, determining that the sensor data represents one or more activities of daily life (ADLs) of a user, assigning one or more probabilities to the one or more determined ADLs, each probability of the one or more probabilities indicating a confidence level that the sensor data represents a corresponding ADL, and providing the sensor data and the one or more probabilities to a motion disorder symptom scoring module that generates one or more scores for the one or more determined ADLs based on the sensor data, each score of the one or more scores indicating the severity of the motion disorder symptoms for a corresponding ADL, and combines the one or more scores and the one or more probabilities to generate an aggregated severity score for the motion disorder symptoms.
摘要:
The present disclosure describes devices, methods and systems for modifying or altering gait kinematics via sensory augmentation and/or modifying muscle activation patterns via augmented motor learning to slow the progression of and/or reduce the pain associated with knee OA, particularly during gait (e.g., walking, running, stair climbing, etc.). Sensors can be used to measure gait parameters and characteristics and muscle activation patterns. Stimulation can be provided to the individual in order to promote learning new gait kinematics and muscle activation patterns.
