Abstract: A system for sampling exhaled breath and for supply of a gas, the system comprising: a gas delivery cannula comprising at least one nasal prong for insertion into a nostril, the nasal prong comprising a distal end; an exhaled breath sampling cannula for insertion into the nostril, the exhaled breath sampling cannula comprising a distal end; and a connector for coupling the gas delivery cannula to the exhaled breath sampling cannula, such that the distal end of the exhaled breath sampling cannula is disposed deeper in the nostril than the distal end of the nasal prong, to reduce dilution of sampled exhaled breath by delivered gas. The connected is configured to facilitate adjustability of an insertion depth of the exhaled breath sampling cannula into said nostril.

Abstract: There is provided herein a system for weaning a patient from mechanical ventilation (MV), the system comprising a ventilation device and a controller comprising an interface module configured to receive two or more measured patient parameters, wherein at least one measured patient parameters parameter comprise a CO2 related parameter, wherein said controller is further configured to compute an Integrated Pulmonary Index (IPI) value based on the two or more measured patient parameters and to provide a signal to the ventilation device, based on the computed IPI value, wherein said signal adjusts one or more weaning related parameters in said ventilation device.

Abstract: According to some embodiments, there is provided a medical monitoring device that includes one or more sensors, wherein a sensor is adapted to sense a parameter of a patient and computator adapted to receive an output of at least one sensor and to compute a condition-index-value directly related to a condition of the patient.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer executable instructions for monitoring a patient's cardiopulmonary status and/or providing feedback-based control regarding the same. Such methods include, and such systems are configured for, determining a cardiopulmonary status based upon measured data, e.g., from a plurality of sensors, comparing the determined cardiopulmonary status with input data, e.g., input data indicating a target cardiopulmonary status, and providing a result signal based upon the comparison. The result signal may include a display signal for displaying an indication of the result of the comparison, an audio alert signal for audibly provided an indication of the result of the comparison, and/or a control signal for controlling an exercise apparatus in accordance with the result of the comparison.

Abstract: Various systems and methods for monitoring oxygen saturation are provided. A monitoring system may include a sensor configured to obtain a physiological signal and a monitor configured to obtain the signal from the sensor and to determine a baseline oxygen saturation from the physiological signal and to generate one or more zones based at least in part on the baseline oxygen saturation. Each zone may include a different range of percentages of oxygen saturation and at least one of the zones corresponds to an anaerobic exercise condition.

Abstract: A system for automatic sleep test analysis, the system comprising: a pulse oximeter for continuously monitoring oxygen saturation values of a patient; a capnograph for continuously monitoring exhaled carbon dioxide (C02) values of the patient; and a computing unit configured to compute a continuous integrated sleep score based on a sequential analysis of the oxygen saturation values and the exhaled C02 values, wherein the continuous integrated sleep score is indicative of the patient's breathing-related sleep quality during at least a portion of the sleep test.

Abstract: Systems and methods for delivering medication to patients are disclosed. The system includes an infuser including a membrane. The infuser entrains a fluid from a first side of a membrane and a medication into a gas on a second side of the membrane to form a medicated humidified gas. A delivery system is coupled to the infuser. The delivery system is configured to deliver the medicated humidified gas to the patient. The method includes entraining a fluid on a first side of a membrane and a medication into a gas on a second side of the membrane to form a medicated humidified gas and delivering the medicated humidified gas to the patient using a delivery system.
