161 Device and method for obtaining vital sign information of a living being US14093566 2013-12-02 US20140155759A1 2014-06-05 Siegfried Walter KAESTLE; Caifeng SHAN
A device for obtaining vital sign information of a living being comprises a detection unit that receives light in at least one wavelength interval reflected from at least a region of interest of a living being and that generates an input signal from the received light. A processing unit processes the input signal and derives vital sign information of said living being from said input signal by use of remote photoplethysmography. An illumination unit illuminates at least said region of interest with light, and a control unit controls said illumination unit based on said input signal and/or said derived vital sign information.
162 Monitoring patient conditions US12550043 2009-08-28 US08600777B2 2013-12-03 Ido Schoenberg; Eran David
Among other things, a computer implemented method for monitoring patients released from an intensive care unit in a healthcare environment is described. The method comprises receiving medical information of a patient located at a location different from the intensive care unit, evaluating conditions of the patient by applying one or more rules to the medical information of the patient, and sending a message to the intensive care unit when the conditions of the patient match the one or more rules.
163 SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MANAGING FLUID LEVELS IN PATIENTS BASED UPON CREATININE CLEARANCE US13852382 2013-03-28 US20130261412A1 2013-10-03 Robert Lawrence Reed, II
A creatinine clearance monitoring and fluid level management system for use in the treatment of patients. The system establishes and adjusts the dosing of intravenous fluids based upon periodic creatinine clearance calculations based upon a system specified frequency. Warning or alert messages or signals are produced if creatinine clearance levels indicate the need for the administration of additional fluids based upon a creatinine clearance result below an established normal threshold. Furthermore, the system generates a warning to trigger a more serious intervention in the event a patient's creatinine clearance rate falls below a lower established threshold or the system determines that an inordinate amount of fluids have been administered without the anticipated response. The creatinine clearance monitoring and fluid level management system is particularly useful for patients in a hospital or in-patient environment, and particularly those post-operative patients or those in intensive care.
164 Method and apparatus for assessment of fluid responsiveness US12891795 2010-09-27 US08529458B2 2013-09-10 Sunghan Kim; Pedro Mateo Riobo Aboy; James McNames
Methods and apparatus for determining a cardiac parameter from cardiovascular pressure signals including arterial blood pressure (ABP) and the photoplethysmographic signal to quantify the degree of amplitude modulation due to respiration and predict fluid responsiveness are disclosed. Disclosed embodiments include a method for assessing fluid responsiveness implemented in a digital computer with one or more processors comprising: (a) measuring a cardiovascular signal, and (b) computing a dynamic index predictive of fluid responsiveness from said cardiovascular signal using a nonlinear state space estimator. According to one particular embodiment, and without limitation, the nonlinear state space estimator is based on a model for cardiovascular signals such as arterial blood pressure or plethysmogram signals, and employs a marginalized particle filter to estimate a dynamic index predictive of fluid responsiveness that is substantially equivalent to a variation in pulse pressure of said cardiovascular signal.

A server retrieving and processing the monitoring sets includes a comparison module determining patient status changes by comparing at least one recorded measure from one of the monitoring sets to at least one other recorded measure from another of the monitoring sets with both recorded measures relating to a type of patient information, and an analysis module testing each patient status change for one of an absence, an onset, a progression, a regression, and a status quo of congestive heart failure against a predetermined indicator threshold corresponding to a type of patient information as the recorded measures. The indicator threshold corresponds to a quantifiable physiological measure of a pathophysiology indicative of congestive heart failure. Hysteresis parameters may be used as a temporally-defined threshold for changes in pathophysiology.

173 System and method for displaying a health status of hospitalized patients US11096189 2005-03-31 US07454359B2 2008-11-18 Brian A. Rosenfeld; Michael Breslow
A system and method for displaying a health status of hospitalized patients. Patient data associated with hospitalized patients is selected according to display rules. A display module selects selected patient data, applies display rules to the selected patient data, and displays the selected patient data. A smart alert module generates and applies patient specific rules to other selected patient data elements. If a patient-specific rule for a hospitalized patient has been contravened, an alert is issued from the remote command center. Graphical attributes may be assigned to patients for whom an alert has been issued and to selected patient data elements that fall outside of an acceptable range. The graphical attributes determine how selected patient data appear on a display screen.
174 System and method for managing respiratory insufficiency in conjunction with heart failure assessment US11894302 2007-08-20 US20070293779A1 2007-12-20 Gust Bardy
A system and method for evaluating a patient status from sampled physiometry for use in respiratory insufficiency management and heart failure assessment is presented. Physiological measures are stored and include direct measures regularly recorded on a substantially continuous basis by a medical device for a patient or measures derived from the direct measures. The physiological measures are sampled, which each relate to a same type of physiometry, and those of the physiological measures, which each relate to a different type of physiometry. A status is determined through analysis of those sampled physiological measures assembled from a plurality of recordation points. The sampled physiological measures are evaluated. Any trends are identified and include one of a status quo and a change, which might affect cardiac performance or respiratory performance. Each such trend is compared to applicable indications of worsening heart failure and respiratory insufficiency to generate a notification of parameter violations.

A display monitor is disclosed for a pulse oximeter of the type wherein light of two different wavelengths is passed through body tissue, such as a finger, an ear or the scalp, so as to be modulated by the pulsatile component of arterial blood therein and thereby indicate oxygen saturation. A tonal signal is emitted having a pitch proportional to the ratio of oxygen saturation and a sequential repetition proportional to pulse. A visual cue consisting of an array of strobed light emitting diodes is flashed having a total light output proportional to the magnitude of the pulse and a sequential flashing rate proportional to pulse rate. A systematic rejection of extraneous or irregular detected data prevents undue sounding of alarms.
