Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus for quantifying an individual's frailty level based on inertial sensor data collected from the individual. The quantified frailty level may correspond to and approximate clinical metrics of frailty, such as the Fried frailty index. A linear regression model may be used to output the quantitative frailty value based on input parameters from the inertial sensor data. The linear regression model may be initially generated from the clinically-measured frailty index values of individuals and inertial sensor data collected from them. The inertial sensor data may be collected during, for example, a timed up and go (TUG) test. Two logistic regression models may be used to output a frailty class based on input parameters from the inertial sensor data. A first logistic regression model may distinguish between robust and frail individuals. A second logistic regression model may distinguish between robust and pre-frail individuals.

Abstract: A system and method of processing one or more sensor logs includes receiving a sensor log an identifying a set of entries in the sensor log having a predefined sequence of sensor identifiers. The set of entries may define a velocity event. The method can also provide for calculating an in-home gait velocity for the velocity event. In one example, the method also provides for identifying another set of entries in the sensor log having a sensor identifier that corresponds to a dwell sensor mounted in a doorway, wherein the other set of entries define a dwell event. The method may also provide for calculating an in-home dwell time for the dwell event.

Abstract: A system, method, and apparatus for reminding users with declining cognitive abilities that remote assistance from a caregiver is available and for providing a simplified way of requesting the assistance. The assistance may be provided through a videoconference on a patient assistance apparatus, which may comprise a screen, speaker, and microphone. The apparatus may remind the user when the user is present at or near the apparatus, which may be detected through a motion or proximity sensor. When the user is near, the apparatus may output an assistance inquiry message which proactively asks whether the user needs assistance. The apparatus may then receive a verbal or other form of inputted response. Based on the user's response, the apparatus may initiate a videoconference with the remote caregiver. The apparatus may also output a message inquiring whether the user is present, which may allow a remote caregiver to initiate a videoconference.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to systems and methods for facilitating communication between a web application and a local peripheral device through a native service where the local peripheral device is locally connected to a computer having the native service. To access data associated with the local peripheral device, a browser may make a cross-domain request to the native service that resides in a domain that is different from the domain that served the web application. Prior to sending the actual cross-domain request, the browser may send a pre-flight cross-domain request to the native service. The native service may send a response to the pre-flight request to the browser. The response may comprise information related to whether the cross-domain request can be serviced by the native service. The browser may send the cross-domain request to the native service, which may comprise functions to be executed on the local peripheral device.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to systems and methods for providing isolation boundaries between regulated medical applications and unregulated, non-medical applications, allowing the regulated medical applications and unregulated, non-medical applications co-exist on a common web platform. The regulated medical applications and unregulated, non-medical application may be assigned to different application pools separated by the isolation boundaries. For example, a regulated medical application may be assigned to a first application pool and an unregulated, non-medical application may be assigned to a second application pool. A request directed to the regulated medical application may be received. The request may comprise instructions for causing the application to perform one or more functions. The request may be processed by a worker process associated with the first application pool such that the request can be processed independently of or separately from the second application pool.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to systems and methods for provisioning a new user to a cloud-based system through a pre-registration process where the cloud-based system generates a tokenized resource identifier based on the user's registration information provided by an external service provider and through a registration process where the user accesses the cloud-based system using the tokenized resource identifier and the cloud-based system completes the registration of the user when the user's registration information in the cloud-based system is verified against the corresponding registration information maintained by the external service provider. Once the registration is complete, data related to the registered user may be synchronized between the cloud-based system and the external service provider.

Abstract: A system and method for monitoring sleep stages to determine optimal arousal times and to alert an individual to negative states of wakefulness. In an embodiment, a device receives pressure data from at least one pressure sensor, where the pressure sensor is associated with furniture used for an individual to sleep. The device uses the pressure data to determine a sleep stage for the individual. The sleep stage is used to determine whether it is an optimal arousal time for the individual. The device sends an indication to not wake the individual if it is not the optimal arousal time for the individual. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: Briefly, in accordance with one or more embodiments, a monitoring system is capable of monitoring the Activities of Daily Living (ADL) of one or more persons occupying a building. The monitoring system includes an information handling system having a radio-frequency (RF) scanner capable of scanning the RF ambient environment of the building. When an individual uses devices in the building that emit RF signals or emissions, the RF signals are detected by the RF scanner and analyzed by the information handling system. The characteristics of the detected RF signals are compared to a database of signature of known devices. If a detected RF signal matches the signature of a known device, the use of the device is logged into a database for ADL analysis.
