  • Patent number: 12213760
    Abstract: Disclosed is a physiologic monitoring system comprising a central hub in communication with a management portal for communicating physiologic measurements taken from a plurality of peripheral devices on a patient. At least one non-invasive peripheral device may measure physiologic data from a patient and be in communication with said central hub. A system including an invasive peripheral device may be associated with said patient and be in communication with said central hub. The central hub may be scalable to collect and communicate measurements from the non-invasive peripheral device and the invasive peripheral device. The at least one non-invasive peripheral device may include a blood pressure cuff, an oxygen sensor, a weight scale, and an ECG monitor. The invasive peripheral device may include a wireless sensor reader that may be adapted to measure physiologic data from a sensor implant placed within the cardiovascular system of said patient.

  • Publication number: 20250005307
    Abstract: Disclosed are a reader device, system, and method for communicating with a wireless sensor. The reader device may be configured to analyze the strength of a response signal transmitted from the wireless sensor in response to an excitation pulse generated by the reader device. In one embodiment, the reader device may be configured to engage be placed in a plurality of modes to allow the reader to transmit a signal, such as a short pulse of energy or a short burst of radio frequency energy to cause the wireless sensor to output a resonant signal. The reader device may receive the resonant signal from the wireless sensor and evaluate it against predetermined values. The evaluated signals may be used to assess the strength and the proximity of the reader device relative to the wireless sensor as it is implanted in a patient.

  • Publication number: 20240382214
    Abstract: The present technology relates to surgical drilling devices, and associated systems and methods. In some embodiments. a surgical drilling device includes a drill bit and a drill motor. During operation, the drill bit and the drill motor can generate one or more parameters. The parameters can correspond to the drilling behavior of the drill bit, for example, to a type of tissue or a drill bit penetration depth, such that the parameters can be used to create an automatic stop threshold. In some embodiments, the surgical drilling device can be configured to measure one or more of the parameters, and to automatically stop the drill motor based on a comparison of the measured parameter(s) and the automatic stop threshold.
