  • ULTRASOUND INTERFACE UNIT AND METHOD
    Publication number: 20250025135
    Abstract: An interface unit or connecting between an ultrasound sensing apparatus and a patient monitor for providing ultrasound monitoring functionality of one or more physiological or anatomical parameters based on processing of ultrasound data. The interface unit includes means for processing acquired ultrasound data to derive measurements of one or more physiological or anatomical parameters and is configured for outputting said derived measurements to a coupled patient monitor unit, e.g. for display and/or trending by the patient monitor.
    Type: Application
    Filed: September 12, 2024
    Publication date: January 23, 2025
    Inventors: Shyam Bharat, Jonathan Thomas Sutton, Balasundar Iyyavu Raju, Harald Greiner, Frank Enslin, McKee Dunn Poland, Martha Gail Grewe Wilson, Ivan Salgo
  • Ultrasound interface unit and method
    Patent number: 12121403
    Abstract: An interface unit (12) for connecting between an ultrasound sensing apparatus (14) and a patient monitor (18) for providing ultrasound monitoring functionality of one or more physiological or anatomical parameters based on processing of ultrasound data. The interface unit includes means for processing acquired ultrasound data to derive measurements of one or more physiological or anatomical parameters and is configured for outputting said derived measurements to a coupled patient monitor unit, e.g. for display and/or trending by the patient monitor.

  • PROVIDING A VISUAL REPRESENTATION OF PATIENT MONITORING DATA
    Publication number: 20230140188
    Abstract: A patient monitor and a separate user interface for the patient monitor, adapted to communicate with one another over a communication pathway. Both the patient monitor and the separate user interface are able to independently check the status of the communication pathway, and visually indicate this status.

  • SpO2 tone modulation with audible lower clamp value
    Patent number: 10687763
    Abstract: A patient monitor device includes one or more sensors which measure physiological parameters of a patient, a controller which controls an audio source to generate an audible tone and adjust the pitch or frequency of the audible tone to indicate the measured physiological parameter according to a mapping scheme, the audio source which generates the audible tone, and an audio output device which outputs the audible tone. The mapping scheme clamping a frequency of the audible tone after reaching a predetermined threshold.
