| 20120022348 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR NON-CONTACT MULTIPARAMETER VITAL SIGNS MONITORING, APNEA THERAPY, SWAY CANCELLATION, PATIENT IDENTIFICATION, AND SUBJECT MONITORING SENSORS - Aspects of the of the disclosure relate to a non-contact physiological motion sensor and a monitor device that can incorporate use of the Doppler effect. A continuous wave of electromagnetic radiation can be transmitted toward one or more subjects and the Doppler-shifted received signals can be digitized and/or processed subsequently to extract information related to the cardiopulmonary motion in the one or more subjects. The extracted information can be used, for example, to determine apneic events and/or to provide apnea therapy to subjects when used in conjunction with an apnea therapy device. In addition, methods of use are disclosed for sway cancellation, realization of cessation of breath, integration with multi-parameter patient monitoring systems, providing positive providing patient identification, or any combination thereof. | 01-26-2012 |
| 20100292568 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR MEASUREMENT OF DEPTH OF BREATH AND PARADOXICAL BREATHING - A radar-based physiological motion sensor is disclosed. Doppler-shifted signals can be extracted from the signals received by the sensor. The Doppler-shifted signals can be digitized and processed subsequently to extract information related to the cardiopulmonary motion in one or more subjects. The information can include respiratory rates, heart rates, waveforms due to respiratory and cardiac activity, direction of arrival, abnormal or paradoxical breathing, etc. In various embodiments, the extracted information can be displayed on a display. | 11-18-2010 |
