Abstract: User interfaces for glucose insight presentation are leveraged. A glucose monitoring application is configured to process glucose measurements to determine one or more glucose insights, e.g., about a user's glucose. The glucose measurements, for example, may be obtained from a glucose monitoring device that collects glucose measurements of the user at predetermined intervals, e.g., every five minutes. The glucose monitoring application configures a user interface, based on configuration data, to present one or more visual elements representative of the one or more glucose insights. For example, the glucose monitoring application may configure the user interface to include a visual element in the form of a color field which represents whether the user's current glucose measurement (e.g., the most recent glucose measurement obtained from the glucose monitoring device) is below, within, or above a glucose range.

Abstract: Meal and activity logging with a glucose monitoring interface is described. A glucose monitoring application is configured to display a user interface that includes a glucose graph that plots glucose measurements of a user over time. The glucose measurements, for example, may be obtained from a glucose monitoring device that collects glucose measurements of the user at predetermined intervals, e.g., every five minutes. Unlike conventional event logging approaches, the glucose monitoring application displays representations of logged events in the user interface along with the glucose graph. The logged events, for example, may include meals consumed by the user, and/or various activities performed by the user, such as exercise, meditation, sleep, and so forth. Notably, the glucose monitoring application controls the display of the event representations to be presented at positions on the glucose graph that correspond to times associated with the respective events.

Abstract: The present invention provides an improved, Internet-based system that seamlessly collects cardiovascular data from a patient before, during, and after a procedure for EP or an ID. During an EP procedure, the system collects information describing the patient's response to PES and the ablation process, ECG waveforms and their various features, HR and other vital signs, HR variability, cardiac arrhythmias, patient demographics, and patient outcomes. Once these data are collected, the system stores them on an Internet-accessible computer system that can deploy a collection of user-selected and custom-developed algorithms. Before and after the procedure, the system also integrates with body-worn and/or programmers that interrogate implanted devices to collect similar data while the patient is either ambulatory, or in a clinic associated with the hospital. A data-collection/storage module, featuring database interface, stores physiological and procedural information measured from the patient.

Abstract: The invention provides a neck-worn sensor (referred to herein as the ‘necklace’) that is a single, body-worn system that measures the following parameters from an ambulatory patient: heart rate, pulse rate, pulse oximetry, respiratory rate, temperature, thoracic fluid levels, stroke volume, cardiac output, and a parameter sensitive to blood pressure called pulse transit time. From stroke volume, a first algorithm employing a linear model can estimate the patient's pulse pressure. And from pulse pressure and pulse transit time, a second algorithm, also employing a linear algorithm, can estimate systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure. Thus, the necklace can measure all five vital signs along with hemodynamic parameters. It also includes a motion-detecting accelerometer, from which it can determine motion-related parameters such as posture, degree of motion, activity level, respiratory-induced heaving of the chest, and falls.

Abstract: The invention provides an electrode and associated electrode holder that are used for physiological measurements, e.g. measurements of signals that can be processed to generate ECG and TBI waveforms. The electrode and electrode holder connect to each other using a magnetic interface. In embodiments, for example, the magnetic interface includes oppositely polled magnets integrated in both the electrode and electrode holder. The magnets are typically rare earth magnets coated with a thin, electrically conductive metal film. This way, when the magnets come in contact with each other, the metal films touch to form both a mechanical and electrical connection. Thus the magnetic interface can replace conventional mechanisms used to connect rivet-based electrodes to leads, which are typically used to secure electrodes for physiological measurements.

Abstract: The invention also provides an integrated system that combines an ablation system used in the electrophysiology (EP) lab with a novel, body-worn monitor and data-management software system. The body-worn monitor differs from conventional monitors in that it measures stroke volume (SV) and cardiac output (CO) in addition to heart rate (HR) and ECG waveforms. The combined system collects numerical and waveform data from patients before, during, and after an EP procedure, thereby providing a robust data set that can be used for a variety of analytics and reporting purposes. The body-worn monitor can be applied to the patient immediately after the EP procedure, e.g. while they are recovering in a hospital. Once applied, the body-worn monitor measures data in real-time, and transmits them to both an EMR and a software application running on a mobile device, such as a smartphone, tablet, or personal digital assistant.
