Publication number: 20240020092Abstract: Systems and methods for contactless control of a physiological monitor are provided. A number of systems utilize an input device for audio-based control of a physiological monitor and/or an input device for gesture-based control of a physiological monitor. Many systems process audio (e.g., voice) or gesture commands to direct a physiological monitor to perform actions, such as begin monitoring, silencing an alarm, changing parameters, navigating screens and/or menus, and/or any other function. Such contactless systems reduce or eliminate physical contact with a physiological monitor, which can mitigate contamination between patients or individuals, which can occur via traditional systems.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 13, 2023Publication date: January 18, 2024Inventors: Catherine M. Szyman, Ryan Timothy McHale, Ryan James Hastings, Christina Gin Teng Chen, Sungwhan Cha, Kenneth William Sprague, Sara Mohiba Boukai, Fabian Guot Ngo

Patent number: 11857319Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure include a sensor configured to store in memory indications of sensor use information and formulas or indications of formulas for determining the useful life of a sensor from the indications of sensor use information. A monitor connected to the sensor monitors sensor use and stores indications of the use on sensor memory. The monitor and/or sensor compute the useful life of the sensor from the indications of use and the formulas. When the useful life of the sensor is reached, an indication is given to replace the sensor.Type: GrantFiled: April 22, 2022Date of Patent: January 2, 2024Assignee: Masimo CorporationInventors: Ammar Al-Ali, Walter M. Weber, Ryan Timothy McHale

Publication number: 20220225938Abstract: An embodiment of the present disclosure seeks to select characteristics of incoming intensity data that cause comparisons of selected characteristics to produce defined probe off space having reduced crossover with defined probe on space. Once defined, the present disclosure compares characteristics of incoming intensity data with the now defined probe off space, and in some embodiments, defined probe on space, to determine whether a probe off condition exists. When a processor determines a probe off condition exists, the processor may output or trigger an output signal that audibly and/or visually indicates to a user that the optical sensor should be adjusted for a proper application to a measurement site.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 14, 2022Publication date: July 21, 2022Inventors: Ryan Timothy McHale, Walter M.
