Abstract: Disclosed is a system that includes a sensor for acquiring a physiological bioelectrical impedance signal from a patient functionally connected to the computing device. The computing device preferably analyzes the physiological bioelectrical impedance signal and provides outputs an assessment of minute ventilation of the patient based on the analyzed bioelectrical impedance signal. Preferably, the system monitors the signal over time, provides a control signal to an IV pump that instructs the IV Pump to automatically adjust medication levels by automatically lowering medication levels when respiration levels fall or completely stopping flow of the medication.

Abstract: Disclosed is a device, method and computer readable media for determining the adequacy of Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR). The device comprises an electrical source generator, an electrical signal sensor receiving a signal from the electrical source generator and a microprocessor. The microprocessor determines changes in impedance of the patient based on the signal received from the electrical signal sensor. Software executing on the microprocessor determines at least one of intrathoracic volume, change in intrathoracic volume, rate of compression, depth of compression, respiratory volume, and respiratory rate based on the change of impedance of the patient and outputs a signal indicating the adequacy of ventilation and compressions.

Abstract: A medical device is provided that comprises: (i) an expandable capsule that can be swallowed by a patient and positioned to a target tissue within the patient, (ii) an endoscope attached to the capsule for obtaining an image of the target tissue at a wavelength of interest, and (iii) a thin tube or wire configured to position the device to the target tissue. The thin tube or wire is expandable. The capsule can be swallowed in stages to position the device at different locations within the gastrointestinal tract. The thin tube or wire can deliver electromagnetic radiation for visualization of the target tissue. The thin tube or wire can provide a passage of a biopsy device for access to the target tissue. In some instances, the capsule comprises a band which rotates around the capsule to clean the capsule. In some instances, the capsule collects multispectral or hyperspectral information.

Abstract: This invention relates generally to an index map comprising both pressure and perfusion information from a diabetic patient foot for the purpose of treatment. The index map may also be a map of perfusion and/or metabolism of the tissue (reflecting oxygen delivery and oxygen extraction, obtained by thermal imaging, hyperspectral imaging, or duplex ultrasound, MRA, CT or laser Doppler imaging. This information aids treatment in prevention of diabetic foot ulceration and amputation and in treatment of tissue compromise to prevent tissue loss in other body regions.
