Abstract: Disclosed is a monitoring and treatment support system to monitor motion symptoms of tremor, bradykinesia and/or dyskinesia. A system and method are also provided for early detection of movement disorders. Further, a system and method are provided which can accurately quantify symptoms utilizing at least one measuring device at a scheduled time as arranged by medical professionals. The timer in the digital diary will remind the elderly to take medications and/or to perform motion tests. A system and method are also provided which can compute an overall motor performance score using weighting algorithm according to the results of tremor test, finger tapping test and/or spiral drawing test. The overall motor performance score is presented using comprehensive figures to both medical professionals and the elderly as a summary report for their review. The severity of movement disorders presented in graphs is compared with the treatment plan for analysis.

Abstract: Disclosed embodiments include a complete system and platform, and a method which allows for monitoring and supporting treatment for elderly care in clinic, home, and other normal daily environments. The system includes: (1) a pressure sensitive device for receiving force response from the elderly and convert the force response into digitalized pressure data, (2) a computing device for running a movement disorder assessment module to receive digitalized pressure data, display visual instructions and feedback, and process the digitalized pressure data for calculation of movement disorder scores, and (3) a cloud based digital diary to store, access and analyze the movement disorder scores, and generate reports on demand. The method will calculate the movement disorder scores based on the digitalized pressure data. A pressure sensitive device is also disclosed.

Abstract: A thermometer includes an illuminated display, which may act as an intelligent indicator of the change and level of temperature. The thermometer includes memory unit accommodating multiple users and their past records respectively. When a new temperature reading is obtained, the thermometer compares the new temperature against the immediate preceding record of the same user. The thermometer further includes a display module indicating the change of temperature reading and the fever status of the user.

Abstract: A wrist-type blood pressure meter for measuring blood pressure and heart rate of a person and displaying the measurement reading with segmented screens showing numeric figures and graphical plot. It has memory module and fingerprint module allowing more than one user to store and retrieve measurement readings according to time sequence and calculate average readings.

Abstract: A fall detection system a first fall sensing module and a notifying module. The first fall sensing module has a rotational portion and a sensing portion. The sensing portion monitors movement of the rotational portion. The notifying module is capable of emitting a sound, emitting a light, transmitting a message, initial a call or combination thereof to indicate that the first fall sensing module has been activated.

Abstract: The present invention is a wrist massager particularly applying to the wrist part of human being adopting acupressure theory of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) in order to circumvent wrist musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs). It comprises a wrist band operably engaged a control panel 4 and a motorised cushion housing 2 with protruding massage means3. The wrist band added with size-adjustable mechanism is designed for users to fit their wrist into the massager comfortably and firmly. It contains a motor/motors to produce vibration and deliver reciprocating and/or rotary massaging effect via the massage means3. Alternatively, the wrist massager is a plate 8 with planar bottom and a housing placed on the surface of the plate 8. A detachable massaging means protrudes from the surface of the said housing.

Abstract: A tracking system for monitoring a location of a person and initiating a communication or emitting an alarm if the tracking system is moved outside of a specified area. The tracking system may include a microprocessor module, a location determining module, a communication module and an alarm module. The location determining module determines the location of the tracking system. The communications module transmits and receives data relating to the location of the tracking system. The alarm module emits an alarm notification. The location determining module, the communications module and the alarm module are operably connected to the microprocessor module.

Abstract: A foot massage apparatus comprises: a housing (5); a pair of replaceable footprint plates (4) with holes (40) arranged according to a particular foot massage pattern, which are placed on an upper plate (51) of the housing (5); protrusions (2; 3) protruding from the holes (40) of each replaceable footprint plate (4); a vertical adjustment mechanism provided in the housing (5), for adjusting the height of the protrusions (2; 3); a horizontal adjustment mechanism provided in the housing (5), for adjusting the horizontal position of the protrusions (2; 3); and a driving mechanism provided in the housing (5), for driving the protrusions (2; 3) to move up and down cyclically. The foot massage apparatus of the present invention has the advantages of enhancing a particular bodily function and fitting different foot sizes.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an anti-sleep apnea device including two electrodes and a pulse oximeter, adapted to be disposed on the user's wrist for releasing electrical pulses to an acupoint of the user, and a method of monitoring and treating sleep-apnea, whereby monitoring occurs via a pulse oximeter and treatment occurs by providing electrical stimulation to specific acupoint on the user.

Abstract: A method for predicting blood glucose level of a person includes performing on the person a near-infrared spectral scan of a body part at a first group of wavelengths and at a second group of wavelengths, determining a first group of near-infrared absorbance values for the first group of wavelengths and a second group of near-infrared absorbance values for the second group of wavelengths, determining a first difference for the first group of near-infrared absorbance values and a second difference for the second group of near-infrared absorbance values, and calculating a blood glucose level for the person using the first and second differences.

Abstract: An anti-sleep apnea device having an elastic abdomen belt optionally with a fabric strain sensor, a first signal-processing unit for processing signals from the fabric strain sensor in response to the change of circumference of the abdomen, two electrodes adapted to be disposed on the user's wrist for releasing electrical pulses to an acupoint of the user, a second signal-processing unit associated with the electrodes, and wireless means for transmitting signals from the first signal-processing unit to the second signal-processing unit. The present invention also discloses a method for managing sleep apnea by applying electrical pulses upon an acupoint of the user.
