Publication number: 20220031196Abstract: Apparatus and methods are described, including apparatus for use with a subject who shares a bed with a second person. A motion sensor detects motion of the subject and motion of the second person, and generates a motion signal in response thereto. A control unit identifies components of the motion signal that were generated in response to motion of the subject, by distinguishing between components of the motion signal that were generated in response to motion of the subject, and components of the motion signal that were generated in response to motion of the second person. The control unit analyzes the components of the motion signal that were generated in response to motion of the subject and generates an output in response thereto. Other applications are also described.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 18, 2021Publication date: February 3, 2022Inventors: Zvika SHINAR, Maayan DAVIDOVICH, Tal KLAP, Smadar HOFFERT, Guy MEGER

Patent number: 9883809Abstract: Apparatus is described, including a motion sensor configured to sense motion of a patient and to generate a motion signal in response thereto. The apparatus includes an output unit and a control unit. The control unit is configured to analyze the motion signal, to identify breathing of the patient as being shallow breathing in response to the analyzing, and to drive the output unit to generate an alert in response to identifying the breathing of the patient as being shallow breathing. Other applications are also described.Type: GrantFiled: September 5, 2013Date of Patent: February 6, 2018Assignee: EARLYSENSE LTD.Inventors: Tal Klap, Zvi Shinar, Guy Meger, Avner Halperin

Patent number: 8821418Abstract: Apparatus is provided, including a sensor configured to sense motion of a subject and generate a motion signal in response thereto. The apparatus includes an output unit and a control unit. The control unit is configured to: (a) analyze the motion signal, (b) at a first time, determine that the motion signal is indicative that the subject is likely sleeping, (c) at a second time following the first time, determine that the motion signal is indicative that the subject is likely no longer sleeping, and (d) in response thereto, drive the output unit to alert a clinician if the subject is at an increased risk for falling out of a bed. Other applications are also described.Type: GrantFiled: May 10, 2009Date of Patent: September 2, 2014Assignee: Earlysense Ltd.Inventors: Guy Meger, Roman Karasik, Tal Klap, Avner Halperin, Zvi Shinar

Patent number: 8734360Abstract: Apparatus and methods are provided for use with a subject who is undergoing respiration. A motion sensor senses motion of a subject. A breathing pattern analysis unit analyzes components of the sensed motion that result from the subject's respiration. The breathing pattern analysis unit includes double-movement-respiration-cycle-pattern-identification functionality that designates respiration cycles as being double-movement-respiration-cycles (DMRC's) by determining that the cycles define two subcycles. Double-movement-respiration-cycle-event-identification functionality of the breathing pattern analysis unit identifies a DMRC event by detecting that the subject has undergone a plurality of DMRC's. An output is generated that is indicative of the subject having used accessory muscles in breathing, in response to identification of the double-movement-respiration-cycle event. Other embodiments are also described.Type: GrantFiled: October 15, 2013Date of Patent: May 27, 2014Assignee: Earlysense Ltd.Inventors: Tal Klap, Shiraz Levkovich, Zvika Shinar, Guy Meger

Publication number: 20120253142Abstract: Apparatus and methods are described including a motion sensor (30) that senses motion of a subject and generates a motion signal in response thereto. An oximetry sensor (86) measures oxygen saturation of the subject and generates an oximetry signal in response thereto. A control unit (14) analyzes the sensed motion and the sensed oximetry signal, and filters out false alerts relating to a condition of the subject generated by the oximetry signal, based on correlation between the oximetry signal and an aspect of the motion signal. Other embodiments are also described.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 7, 2011Publication date: October 4, 2012Applicant: EARLYSENSE LTD.Inventors: Guy Meger, Zvi Shinar, Roman Karasik, Tal Klap, Efrat Herbst, Avner Halperin
