  • Publication number: 20220241520
    Abstract: The disclosed tamper-evident closure (100) encloses a medical access device, such as a vascular access device (200), such that it will be visibly apparent if the medical access device contained in the tamper-evident closure becomes exposed. The tamper-evident closure cannot be reapplied over the medical access device in a way to look the same as it did prior to exposing the medical access device. The tamper-evident closures comprise a holding cavity (110), a securing mechanism (160), and an apparent release. The disclosed tamper-evident closures are well suited for securing a medical access device that has an access point for delivering fluid to a patient or removing fluid from a patient.

  • Publication number: 20190328278
    Abstract: This disclosure provides systems and methods for monitoring respiratory parameters of a person (e.g., a user). In some examples, a system for respiratory monitoring includes a sensor and a computing device. The sensor monitors at least one respiratory related parameter. The computing device is connected to the sensor. The computing device includes a processor. The processor receives a feature vector having a plurality of features, each respective feature associated with a respective respiratory related parameter. The processor also receives from the sensor the at least one respective respiratory related parameter. The processor determines a first breathing state based on the feature vector.
