4 results about "Vital signs" patented technology

The invention provides a system and method for measuring vital signs (e.g. SYS, DIA, SpO2, heart rate, and respiratory rate) and motion (e.g. activity level, posture, degree of motion, and arm height) from a patient. The system features: (i) first and second sensors configured to independently generate time-dependent waveforms indicative of one or more contractile properties of the patient's heart; and (ii) at least three motion-detecting sensors positioned on the forearm, upper arm, and a body location other than the forearm or upper arm of the patient. Each motion-detecting sensor generates at least one time-dependent motion waveform indicative of motion of the location on the patient's body to which it is affixed. A processing component, typically worn on the patient's body and featuring a microprocessor, receives the time-dependent waveforms generated by the different sensors and processes them to determine: (i) a pulse transit time calculated using a time difference between features in two separate time-dependent waveforms, (ii) a blood pressure value calculated from the time difference, and (iii) a motion parameter calculated from at least one motion waveform.

The invention provides a device for early screening of newborn lung diseases. The device comprises a physical sign monitoring module, a data processing module, a lung disease preliminary screening module and a comprehensive diagnosis module. The physical sign monitoring module collects vital sign data of a newborn is collected through body temperature, heart rate, blood oxygen and breath monitoring instruments; the data processing module processes the vital sign data of the newborn by adopting methods of feature extraction, data normalization and the like; the lung disease preliminary screening module automatically diagnoses the disease state with a lung disease preliminary screening model according to the collected vital sign data and generates a diagnosis report; and in the comprehensivediagnosis module, a doctor further examines the newborn according to the report, then performs comprehensive diagnosis, and finally performs active and effective treatment on the child patient, so that the injury to the newborn is reduced.

The embodiment of the invention provides a terminal control method and apparatus. The method comprises the following steps: detecting the temperature of an object via an infrared sensor; when the temperature exceeds the preset threshold, determining that the object has vital signs; sending first control information to a digital television receiving terminal, so that the digital television receiving terminal controls the power supply of the digital television receiving terminal to locate in an open state according to the first control information. By adoption of the embodiment of the invention, the digital television receiving terminal can be opened intelligently, and the applicability of the digital television receiving terminal is improved.
