  • Patent number: 11690575
    Abstract: A physiological information processing apparatus includes a processor and a memory storing computer-readable instructions. When the instructions are executed by the processor, the physiological information processing apparatus obtains physiological information data indicative of physiological information of a subject, obtains a first parameter associated with a vital sign of the subject based on the physiological information data, displays a first trend graph showing temporal change in the first parameter in a first display area of a display screen of a display, obtains a second parameter associated with an autonomic nerve function of the subject based on the physiological information data, and displays a second trend graph showing temporal change in the second parameter in a second display area of the display screen. The first and second display areas are displayed next to each other such that time axes of the first and second display areas are synchronized with each other.

  • Patent number: 11666732
    Abstract: A catheter device according to one aspect of the present invention includes: a tube to be inserted into a body; a light emitting unit, which is provided on a distal end side of the tube, and includes an infrared light emitting element configured to emit infrared light for verifying a position of the tube; a power supply line configured to supply electric power to the infrared light emitting element; and a conduction detection unit including a visible light emitting element configured to notify a conduction state between the power supply line and the infrared light emitting element by means of visible light. With the catheter device, operation of the light emitting unit can be visually checked before inserting the tube.

  • Publication number: 20210259617
    Abstract: A physiological information processing apparatus including: a processor; and a memory that stores a computer-readable command. When the computer-readable command is executed by the processor, the physiological information processing apparatus acquires physiological information data indicating physiological information of a subject, acquires a value of a parameter relevant to an autonomic nerve function of the subject in each of first time intervals based on the physiological information data, acquires an abnormality index value indicating an extent of abnormality in the autonomic nerve function of the subject based on the values of the parameter acquired in the first time intervals respectively, and displays information relevant to the abnormality index value.

  • Publication number: 20170105629
    Abstract: A pulse wave analyzer includes: a pulse wave acquirer which is configured to acquire a pulse wave of a subject; a respiration information acquirer which is configured to acquire respiration information of the subject; and an analyzing section which includes: a detector which, based on the respiration information, configured to detect that spontaneous respiration is generated, and to detect an end-tidal phase of the spontaneous respiration; and an eliminator which is configured to eliminate a unit pulse wave that, in the pulse wave, is generated immediately after the end-tidal phase of the spontaneous respiration, from the pulse wave, wherein the analyzing section is configured to calculate a respiratory variation from the pulse wave from which the unit pulse wave has been eliminated.
