Patent number: 9913591Abstract: A device is provided that includes a housing and a mount configured to mount the housing to a wrist of a wearer. The device also includes a first electrical contact disposed on an inner surface of the mount and configured to contact skin at a first external body surface. The device also includes a second electrical contact disposed on an outer surface of the mount and configured to be contacted by skin of a second external body surface. The device also includes a signal conditioner disposed in the housing. The signal conditioner is configured to determine data indicative of a biological state of the wearer based on voltage fluctuations between the first electrical contact and the second electrical contact.Type: GrantFiled: July 2, 2015Date of Patent: March 13, 2018Assignee: Verily Life Sciences LLCInventors: John Lapetina, Shannon Fong, Jeff Weintraub, David Palchak

Publication number: 20170164855Abstract: An ECG monitoring system for ambulatory patients includes a disposable multi-electrode patch that adhesively attaches to the chest of a patient. A reusable battery-powered ECG monitor clips onto the patch and receives patient electrical signals from the electrodes of the patch. A processor continuously processes received ECG signals and stores the signals in memory in the monitor. The processor also analyzes the received ECG signals for predefined arrhythmia. If an arrhythmia is detected, a bi-directional wireless transceiver in the ECG monitor transmits the event information and an ECG strip to a cellphone handset. The cellphone handset automatically relays the event information and ECG strip to a monitoring center for further diagnosis and necessary intervention.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 27, 2017Publication date: June 15, 2017Inventors: THOMAS SOLOSKO, STACY GEHMAN, EARL HERLEIKSON, THOMAS LYSTER, SHANNON FONG, KIM HANSEN, JON BISHAY, CHUNI KAO, BRETT CROSS, KRISHNAKANT NAMMI, CORINNE MAUSER

Patent number: 9510755Abstract: An ECG monitoring system for ambulatory patients includes a battery-powered ECG monitor which attaches to a patient to receive patient electrical signals. A processor continuously processes received ECG signals and stores the signals in memory in the monitor. A wireless transceiver in the ECG monitor transmits the processed ECG signals to a cellphone handset. The battery of the monitor is recharged when the monitor is properly positioned in a charging dock, during which time the ECG signals are sent to the cellphone handset. Preferably the cellphone handset is recharged by the charging dock at the same time. At the conclusion of recharging and data transfer the monitor performs a self-test. A light on the charging dock is illuminated if any of the operations performed while the monitor is docked is unsuccessful.Type: GrantFiled: March 4, 2009Date of Patent: December 6, 2016Assignee: KONINKLIJKE PHILIPS N.V.Inventors: Shannon Fong, Chuni Kao, Earl Herleikson, William McCoy, Victor Iseli, Michael Crawford, Jacco Eerden, Douglas Denney

Patent number: 9002473Abstract: Defibrillator electrodes are sealed to the inside of a rigid enclosure. The enclosure is hinged to open and expose the electrodes for deployment. The electrode gel is sealed against moisture loss between the moisture impervious electrode backing and the inner surface of the enclosure. The enclosure may further include an electrical circuit for electrode self-testing, the circuit being broken when the enclosure is opened.Type: GrantFiled: October 3, 2005Date of Patent: April 7, 2015Assignee: Koninklijke Philips N.V.Inventors: Daniel J. Powers, Shannon Fong, Eric Jonsen, Patrick Hauge

Patent number: 8639319Abstract: An ECG monitoring system for ambulatory patients includes a small multi-electrode patch that adhesively attaches to the chest of a patient. A reusable battery-powered ECG monitor clips onto the patch and receives patient electrical signals from the electrodes of the patch. A processor continuously processes received ECG signals and stores the signals in memory in the monitor. Processed ECG signals and cardiac event information are sent wirelessly to a cellphone handset for relay to a monitoring center. The ECG monitor is contained in a watertight sealed case with only electrical contacts on the outside of the case. The electrical contacts electrically couple the ECG monitor to the electrodes of the patch during patient monitoring and to a charger during recharge of the battery.Type: GrantFiled: March 4, 2009Date of Patent: January 28, 2014Assignee: Koninklijke Philips N.V.Inventors: Steven Hugh, Earl Herleikson, Shannon Fong, Thomas Solosko, Brett Cross

Patent number: 8315687Abstract: An ECG monitoring device comprises an integral handheld device including a ECG electronic module and an electrode patch having a plurality of electrodes which contact a subject by conductive hydrogel. A release liner covers and protects the hydrogel prior to use and is removed to expose the hydrogel. A second release liner is removed to expose a pressure sensitive adhesive by means of which the device is attached to a subject. The first and second release liners may be parts of a single release liner layer. After use the electrode patch is disposable and the ECG electronic module is detached from the patch for reuse.Type: GrantFiled: November 30, 2007Date of Patent: November 20, 2012Assignee: Koninklijke Philips Electronics N.V.Inventors: Brett Cross, Shannon Fong, Stacy E. Gehman, Kim J. Hansen, Earl C. Herleikson, Steven C. Hugh, Thomas D. Lyster, Thomas A. Solosko
