Abstract: A skin measuring microscope includes a housing, an electronic imager disposed along an imaging axis, and an illumination system. The illumination system includes a plurality of LEDs disposed in a ring-like configuration adjacent a distal end of the housing.

Abstract: A blood pressure cuff is defined by a first sheet, having an opening, and a second sheet. The second sheet is attached to a bottom of the first sheet to form an interior inflatable portion between the first sheet and the second sheet, with the opening of the first sheet fluidly interconnecting the interior inflatable portion with an exterior of the cuff. The blood pressure cuff is made from a single type of material and can be recycled, biodegradable, or composted.

Abstract: A system for monitoring a patient includes a sensor configured to determine a first characteristic and a second characteristic of an at least partially occluded artery. The system also includes a control module in communication with the sensor and configured to determine a hemodynamic parameter of the patient based on the first and second characteristics. The control module is operable in an automatic operating mode and a manual operating mode. The automatic operating mode is characterized by the sensor determining, in response to one or more sensor control signals automatically generated by the control module, the first and second characteristics during at least one of automatic inflation and automatic deflation of a cuff associated with the control module. The manual operating mode is characterized by the sensor determining, in response to manual actuation of a trigger associated with the sensor, the first and second characteristics during at least one of inflation and deflation of the cuff.
