Disclosed is an oxygen delivery device for regulating the flow of oxygen from an oxygen source to a respiratory cannula located on the face of a patient. A host controller coupled to the oxygen delivery device accepts an input from a medical monitor relating to the blood oxygen saturation percentage of the patient. The host controller then regulates the rate of oxygen supplied to the patient based in part upon the blood oxygen saturation percentage of the patient. A high rate of oxygen is supplied to the patient when the controller detects a blood oxygen saturation level below a predetermined percentage and a low rate of oxygen is supplied when the controller detects a blood oxygen saturation level above a predetermined percentage in an order to minimize wasted oxygen.

System and method for evaluating heart failure based on ventricular end-diastolic volume using an implantable medical device

InactiveUS20050215914A1ElectrocardiographyCatheterVentricular relaxationMedical device
Techniques are provided for evaluating heart failure within a patient based on ventricular impedance measurements. Briefly, values representative of ventricular end-diastolic volume (EDV) are detected using ventricular electrodes and then heart failure, if occurring within the patient, is evaluated based on ventricular EDV. In this manner, ventricular EDV is used as a proxy for ventricular end-diastolic pressure. By using ventricular EDV instead of ventricular end-diastolic pressure, heart failure is detected and evaluated without requiring sophisticated sensors or complex algorithms. Instead, ventricular EDV is easily and reliably measured using impedance signals sensed by implanted ventricular pacing / sensing electrodes. The severity of heart failure is also evaluated based on ventricular EDV values and heart failure progression is tracked based on changes, if any, in ventricular EDV values over time.

A physiological response of the brain, such as electroencephalogram (EEG) activity, is monitored. One or more parameters of the magnetic field may be selectively adapted in response to the monitored physiological response. The administration of the ENS technique and the MNS technique may be performed simultaneously, in serial order, or in alternating order depending on the diagnosis.

Adjusting acquisition protocols for dynamic medical imaging using dynamic models

ActiveUS20100183206A1More standardizedBetter quantifiableImage enhancementImage analysisDynamic modelsHemodynamics
The invention relates to automatically adjusting an acquisition protocol for dynamic medical imaging, such as dynamic CT, MRI or PET imaging. The protocols are adjusted based on anatomic and dynamic models (10, 12, 14) which are individualized or fitted to each patient based on a scout scan (6, 8). The adjustment can compensate for changes in the patient due to patient motion (e.g. breathing or heartbeat) or flow of contrast or tracing agent during the sequence. This ensures that changes in the reconstructed images are indicative of pathological changes in the patient and not caused by patient motion or changes in scanning parameters or timing. The dynamic model can be a motion model (12) used to predict the motion of anatomic / physiologic features, typically organs, during scanning, or a haemodynamic model (14) used to predict flow of the contrast agent allowing for precise timing of the scanning sequence.

Closed loop medication use system and method

A closed loop medication use system and method includes selecting a medication to prescribe to a patient based on patient information, such as laboratory results, radiology results, and patient allergies, healthcare industry practices, patient-care site specific guidelines, and medication information. The selected medication is prescribed on an unverified prescription order that is then transcribed. Transcribing includes performing multiple crosschecks of the prescription order to real-time patient information, healthcare industry practices, and medication information to generate a verified prescription order. After transcribing, the appropriate dispensing method is determined for the prescription order and dispensed. The dispensed medication is administered after confirmation by the administering clinician of the right patient, right medication, right dosage, right route, and right time. The whole process of medication use described above is monitored continuously in real-time. The monitored information is communicated to the prescribing, transcribing, dispensing and administering parts of the system.
