Ivy Biomedical Systems, Inc. - Branford CT

International Classification:

A61B 5/00

US Classification:

600300, 34053912, 128903, 370908, 370913

Abstract:

A wireless patient monitoring system. In one embodiment the system has a first patient monitoring subsystem including a plurality of sensors and sensor modules; and a processor-transceiver in communication with the plurality of sensors and sensor modules; and a first clinician display subsystem including a processor-transceiver. The processor-transceiver of the first clinician display subsystem broadcasts, on a first predetermined frequency, the frequency the processor-transceiver of the first clinician display subsystem will use to communicate with the processor-transceiver of the first patient monitoring subsystem. The processor-transceiver of the first patient monitoring subsystem then transmits and receives data on the frequency that the processor-transceiver of the first clinician display subsystem will use to communicate with the processor-transceiver of the first patient monitoring subsystem. The processor-transceiver of the first patient monitoring subsystem reverts to the first frequency if communication with the processor-transceiver of the first clinician display subsystem is lost.

International Classification:

A61B 504

US Classification:

128698

Abstract:

For determining fetal heart rate signals representing present and one or more previous fetal heart rate cycles are processed using a correlation technique. Each correlation signal produced by this technique is further processed for substantially eliminating the possibility of detecting the fetal heart rate at twice its real rate.

International Classification:

A61B 5/055
A61B 5/00
G01R 33/34

Abstract:

A device and method for detecting motion and position of a patient positioned within a magnetic resonance imaging system, the device including at least one sensor configured to be capacitively coupled to the patient during magnetic resonance imaging. The method includes, while a patient is positioned within a magnetic resonance imaging system, measuring a reflected power value indicative of an amount of power reflected by the at least one sensor in response to being driven by at least one RF signal, and determining, using the reflected power value, whether the patient has moved.
