  • Publication number: 20230309909
    Abstract: The disclosure describes a system comprising: a memory; and one or more processors in communication with the memory. The one or more processors are configured to: receive, from a set of sensors, biometric data indicative of a muscle contraction of a patient over a period of time; and determine, based on the biometric data, a muscle contraction vector indicating a direction of the muscle contraction over the period of time. Additionally, the one or more processors are configured to determine, based on the biometric data, a likelihood that the muscle contraction comprises a true labor uterine contraction; and output, for display by a user device, the muscle contraction vector indicating the direction of the muscle contraction and the likelihood that the muscle contraction comprises a true labor uterine contraction.

  • Patent number: 10736050
    Abstract: Example implementations relate to adjusting radiofrequency transmission power of antenna devices consistent with the disclosure. For example, a non-transitory machine-readable medium storing instructions executable by a processing resource to transmit a signal using a first transmission power to query an environment surrounding an antenna device to determine whether an object is causing path loss along a communication link, and adjust a transmission power of the antenna device to a second transmission power based on a determination that an object is causing path loss along the communication link.

  • Patent number: 8103076
    Abstract: A method to serially determine changes in perfusion to tissues is provided. This method involves injecting contrast material into a catheter that is positioned in the blood supply proximal to the targeted tissue of interest, acquiring a time series of images that depicts the uptake of this contrast material within the tissue, deriving semi-quantitative or quantitative perfusion metrics based upon the time series of perfusion images, altering perfusion to the targeted tissue by means of injecting pharmacologic agents or embolic agents into the blood vessels supplying the targeted tissue, repeating the acquisition of perfusion images to serially monitor changes in tissue perfusion after each alteration, and calculating changes in perfusion metrics after each series of perfusion images. This method is used to monitor changes in perfusion to various tissues, including a diverse array of tumors.
