  • Method and system for activity/rest identification
    Patent number: 9198619
    Abstract: Disclosed embodiments include a method for automatic identification of activity and rest periods based on an actigraphy signal. According to an embodiment, the method comprises (a) applying one or more filters to the actigraphy signal to generate a filtered actigraphy signal, and (b) comparing the filtered actigraphy signal against an adaptive threshold to generate an output signal corresponding to the activity and rest periods. The method can be implemented as part of a medical apparatus or medical system for automatic activity/rest identification from actigraphy signals.

  • METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR ASSESSMENT OF FLUID RESPONSIVENESS
    Publication number: 20110270097
    Abstract: Disclosed embodiments include a method and related apparatus for determining a physiological parameter from the arterial blood pressure signal, the photoplethysmographic signal, the electrocardiogram, or any other a physiologic signal whose pulse amplitude variation is affected by respiration and it is indicative of fluid status in order to quantify the degree of amplitude modulation due to respiration (pulse variation) and help assess fluid responsiveness.
