  • Patent number: 11315275
    Abstract: The present technology relates to the field of medical monitoring, and, in particular, to non-contact detecting and monitoring of patient breathing. Systems, methods, and computer readable media are described for calculating a change in depth of a region of interest (ROI) on a patient. In some embodiments, the systems, methods, and/or computer readable media can identify steep changes in depths. For example, the systems, methods, and/or computer readable media can identify large, inaccurate changes in depths that can occur at edge regions of a patient. In these and other embodiments, the systems, methods, and/or computer readable media can adjust the identified steep changes in depth before determining one or more patient respiratory parameters.

  • Patent number: 11311252
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to the field of medical monitoring, and, in particular, to non-contact detecting and monitoring of patient breathing. Systems, methods, and computer readable media are described for calculating a change in depth of regions in one or more regions of interest (ROI's) on a patient and assigning one or more visual indicators to the regions based on the calculated changes in depth of the regions over time. In some embodiments, one or more breathing parameter signals corresponding to the regions can be generated and/or analyzed. In these and other embodiments, the one or more visual indicators can be displayed overlaid onto the regions in real-time. In these and still other embodiments, the systems, methods, and/or computer readable media (i) can display one or more generated breathing parameter signals in real-time and/or (ii) can trigger an alert and/or an alarm when a breathing abnormality is detected.

  • Publication number: 20190380807
    Abstract: The present invention relates to the field of medical monitoring, and in particular non-contact monitoring of one or more physiological parameters in a region of a patient during surgery. Systems, methods, and computer readable media are described for generating a pulsation field and/or a pulsation strength field of a region of interest (ROI) in a patient across a field of view of an image capture device, such as a video camera. The pulsation field and/or the pulsation strength field can be generated from changes in light intensities and/or colors of pixels in a video sequence captured by the image capture device. The pulsation field and/or the pulsation strength field can be combined with indocyanine green (ICG) information regarding ICG dye injected into the patient to identify sites where blood flow has decreased and/or ceased and that are at risk of hypoxia.

  • Publication number: 20190209046
    Abstract: The present invention relates to the field of medical monitoring, and in particular non-contact video monitoring to measure tidal volume of a patient. Systems, methods, and computer readable media are described for determining a region of interest of a patient and monitoring that region of interest to determine tidal volume of the patient. This may be accomplished using a depth sensing camera to monitor a patient and determine how their chest and/or other body parts are moving as the patient breathes. This sensing of movement can be used to determine the tidal volume measurement.

  • Publication number: 20110306858
    Abstract: Methods and systems are disclosed for transforming a signal using a continuous wavelet transform based at least in part on a truncated, mean-adjusted wavelet. A wavelet may be truncated to a finite support to generate a truncated wavelet. The real part of the truncated wavelet may be forced to have a zero mean to generate a truncated, mean-adjusted wavelet. The signal may be transformed using a continuous wavelet transform based at least in part on the truncated mean-adjusted wavelet. Information may be derived about the signal from the transformed signal.

  • Publication number: 20020026250
    Abstract: The device is meant to move the solar protection means from a first position, among at least two predetermined positions, toward a second position to adapt to a variation in sunshine. It comprises a logic (6) which breaks down movement from the first to the second position into a minimum of two steps separated by a time interval (T1). A command (STOP) activated by a user during said interval (T1) activates the following step and reduces the interval by a fraction. The activation of an order after the interval (T1) and during the operation of the following step increases the interval (T1) by a fraction. The control device is in this way capable of adapting to the behavior of the user.
