The invention provides a body-worn vital sign monitor that measures a patient's vital signs (e.g. blood pressure, SpO2, heart rate, respiratory rate, and temperature) while simultaneously characterizing their activity state (e.g. resting, walking, convulsing, falling) and posture (upright, supine). The monitor processes this information to minimize corruption of the vital signs and associated alarms/alerts by motion-related artifacts. It also features a graphical user interface (GUI) rendered on a touchpanel display that facilitates a number of features to simplify and improve patient monitoring and safety in both the hospital and home.

Body-worn vital sign monitor

The invention provides a body-worn monitor featuring a processing system that receives a digital data stream from an ECG system. A cable houses the ECG system at one terminal end, and plugs into the processing system, which is worn on the patient's wrist like a conventional wristwatch. The ECG system features: i) a connecting portion connected to multiple electrodes worn by the patient; ii) a differential amplifier that receives electrical signals from each electrode and process them to generate an analog ECG waveform; iii) an analog-to-digital converter that converts the analog ECG waveform into a digital ECG waveform; and iv) a transceiver that transmits a digital data stream representing the digital ECG waveform (or information calculated from the waveform) through the cable and to the processing system. Different ECG systems, typically featuring three, five, or twelve electrodes, can be interchanged with one another.

The invention provides a monitor for measuring blood pressure and other vital signs from a patient without using a cuff. The invention provides a hand-held device for measuring vital signs (e.g. blood pressure) from a patient that features: i) a housing that encloses a first sensor, that includes a first electrode and a first optical system configured to generate a first optical signal; ii) a second sensor that includes a second electrode and a second optical system configured to generate a second optical signal; iii) an amplifier system, in electrical contact with the first and second electrodes, configured to processes electrical signals from the first and second electrodes to generate an electrical waveform; and iv) a microprocessor, in electrical communication with the amplifier system, first optical system, and second optical system, the microprocessor configured to process the electrical waveform and first and second optical signals with an algorithm to determine at least one of the patient's vital signs.

System for measuring vital signs using bilateral pulse transit time

An embodiment provides a system for connecting a telematics device to a host vehicle. The system may comprise a short-range wireless transmitter and a short-range wireless receiver. The short-range wireless transmitter may be connected to an in-vehicle diagnostic system. The short-range wireless receiver may be connected to the telematics device installed in the host vehicle. The short-range wireless transmitter may be configured to wirelessly transmit diagnostic data to the short-range wireless receiver.

Fitness monitoring device

An embodiment provides a method for coupling a telematics device to a host vehicle. One embodiment of the method may include: 1) coupling an electrical cable to an engine control unit of the host vehicle; 2) coupling the electrical cable to the telematics device; and 3) coupling a diagnostic connector to the electrical cable. The diagnostic connector may be configured to interface with a diagnostic scan tool that corresponds to the host vehicle.

Method for coupling a telematics device to a vehicle using an in-vehicle wiring harness with multiple adaptors for an on-board diagnostic connector

An embodiment provides a method for mounting a telematics device within a vehicle that has an on-board diagnostic unit for collecting diagnostic data. The telematics device may be coupled to an original on-board diagnostic connector mounted in an accessible location within the vehicle to enable a diagnostic scan tool. The diagnostic scan tool may have a connector which is unique to the type of vehicle. The method may comprise: 1) mounting the telematics unit within the vehicle such that it may be hidden from view; 2) coupling an electrical cable to the telematics unit; 3) removing the original on-board diagnostic connector from the accessible location in which it was mounted; 4) coupling the electrical cable to the original on-board diagnostic connector; 5) coupling another diagnostic connector capable of mating with the scan tool to the electrical cable; and 6) mounting the diagnostic connector in the accessible location.
