Embodiment Construction

[0023] refer to figure 1 , which shows a belt or strap 10 for attachment to a patient. As used herein, the term "band" refers to a wearable device that can be wrapped around and secured to a target tissue of a patient. It should be understood that the terms "belt" and "band" may be used interchangeably herein, as described hereinafter. Furthermore, as used herein, the term "target tissue" refers to any intended target tissue of a patient (eg, tissue of a body part such as chest, waist, wrist, upper arm, leg, forehead, etc.). Such as figure 1 As shown, strap 10 includes a strap or harness body 12 . Strap body 12 has a generally rectangular shape; however, other shapes are possible (eg, circular, triangular, square, etc.). The medical monitoring device 14 is mounted to the strap body 12 at a device mounting location or portion 16 . For example, monitoring device 14 may be a vital sign monitoring device. In the exemplary embodiment, monitoring device 14 monitors respiratory...

Abstract

A band (10) for positioning a medical monitoring device (14) on a portion of a target portion of a medical subject is provided. The band (10) includes a flexible main band body (12) that includes at least one of at least one plastic layer (28), a textile layer, and a flexible rubber layer. At least one ferromagnetic portion (30) is disposed on or in at least a first end portion (22) of the flexible main band body (12). At least one magnet (26) is disposed on or in a second end portion (24) of the flexible main band body opposite from the first end portion (22). The flexible main band body (12) is sized to wrap around the target portion of the medical subject with the first and second end portions (22, 24) overlapping such that the at least one magnet (26) and the at least one ferromagnetic portion (30) magnetically couple to secure the flexible main band body (12) wrapped around the target portion of the medical subject.

Description

technical field [0001] The following generally relates to medical monitoring devices, medical monitoring device placement systems, and related fields. However, it should be understood that the present invention is also applicable to other usage scenarios and is not necessarily limited to the aforementioned applications. Background technique [0002] Pneumonia and other respiratory diseases are common and fatal in developing countries, especially among children under the age of five. Rapid and accurate assessment of respiration, especially respiration rate, is a key diagnostic tool for the assessment of these diseases. Conventionally, a hockey puck-sized accelerometer-based respiration monitor is attached to the chest with an adhesive, either directly or using a disposable bag. If directly attached, the device must be sterilized between patients. However, in developing countries, the availability of single-use bags and the availability of sterilization equipment may be lim...
