20120094261 | Flow Meter for a Container and Method for Monitoring the Hydration of a Patient - A flow meter for a container, for monitoring the dehydration of a patient, has a sensor unit for detecting a flow through the flow meter and a control unit for recording an amount of liquid passing through during a time interval. The flow meter is an adapter for connection to a bottle or a beaker. A patient receives a warning if he should take in liquid. A base station serves for bidirectional transmission of measurement data to an external apparatus, more particularly a telemedical center. | 04-19-2012 |
20130053659 | Electric Functional Adhesive Bandage - An electronic functional adhesive bandage includes an adhesive layer and a cover layer, between which an electric energy source, an electric connection element, and an electronic control device are arranged. The electronic functional adhesive bandage also includes a switching element configured to control the power consumption of the electronic control device and to establish an electric connection between the electronic control device, the electric connection element, and the electric energy source. | 02-28-2013 |
20130123719 | MEDICATION COMPLIANCE PATCH AND CONTROL UNIT - A medication patch compliance control unit system and method is disclosed. The control unit can include an attachment sensor, a user interface and a controller that receives signals from the attachment sensor and sends signals to the user interface. The control unit can include an attachment sensor, a wireless transceiver and a controller that receives signals from the attachment sensor and sends signals through the transceiver. The attachment sensor can be a temperature sensor, and the controller can determine attachment based on whether the sensor is reading temperatures in the normal body temperature range. The user interface can include visual and/or audible indicators. The control unit can include an expiration timer, and provide an expiration signal when the patch is expired. The transceiver can transmit medication patch data to a healthcare provider. The controller can record when the medication patch is attached to and detached from the patient. | 05-16-2013 |
20130158364 | Device Embodied to Measure Vital Parameters of a Patient - A measuring device includes a plurality of measuring modules and a control module. The plurality of measuring modules is configured to measure vital parameters of a patient, with at least two measuring modules of the plurality of measuring modules being configured to measure different vital parameters. The control module is configured to evaluate the measured vital parameters and/or to carry out calculations based on the measured vital parameters. | 06-20-2013 |
20130245546 | FUNCTIONAL ADHESIVE BANDAGE WITH SENSOR AND ACTUATOR - A functional adhesive bandage includes an adhesive layer and a cover layer. A sensor for measuring a vital parameter, a control unit, an energy storage device, and an actuator are arranged between the adhesive layer and the cover layer. The control unit is configured to evaluate the vital parameter measured by the sensor. The control unit is further configured to regulate the actuator based on the evaluation. | 09-19-2013 |
20130267790 | ELECTRONIC ADHESIVE BANDAGE DEVICE WITH AT LEAST ONE ENERGY SOURCE - An electrical adhesive bandage device for application on the skin includes a first section and at least one second section. The first section has a functional apparatus which has electronics, and the at least one second section has at least one energy source which is connected to the functional apparatus and the electronics thereof. The first section and the last least one second section are arranged next to one another and configured to be separable from one another by at least one separation edge. | 10-10-2013 |
20140195255 | System And Method For Assessment Of Patient Health Using Patient Generated Data - A method for evaluating a patient in telehealth treatment includes receiving non-medical data corresponding to a patient from a social network service through a data network, identifying a health characteristic of the patient in the non-medical data, generating a message including health advice associated with the identified health characteristic of the patient, and sending the message to an electronic device associated with the patient through the data network. | 07-10-2014 |
20140296662 | METHOD AND DEVICE FOR DETECTING THE STATE OF HYDRATION OF A HUMAN OR ANIMAL BODY - A method for detecting the state of hydration of a human or animal body includes carrying out impedance measurements on a body surface of the human or animal body. At least one bipole measurement and at least one quadrupole measurement are carried out and evaluated during the method. | 10-02-2014 |
20150042360 | Method and Device for Person Identification - A method for person identification includes acquiring a data from impedance measurements on the body of a person and comparing the data with a reference data relating to the person. The method further includes inferring an identity of the person from the comparison. The method further includes carrying out the impedance measurements by a combination of at least one two-pole measurement and at least one four-pole measurement. | 02-12-2015 |
