    Abstract: A motion insensitive pulse detector for detecting a patient's pulse includes an exciter adapted to be positioned over a blood vessel of the patient and configured to induce a transmitted exciter waveform into the patient. A noninvasive sensor is adapted to be positioned over the blood vessel and configured to sense a hemoparameter and to generate a noninvasive sensor signal representative of the hemoparameter containing a component of a received exciter waveform. A processor is coupled to the noninvasive sensor and configured to process the noninvasive sensor signal to determine the patient's pulse. Advantages of the invention include the ability to detect a patient's pulse even when the patient is moving or being moved by medical personnel.

    Abstract: The method for assessing risk of an adverse clinical event includes detecting a physiologic signal in the subject and determining from the physiologic signal a sequence of intervals corresponding to time intervals between heart beats. The long-time structure of fluctuations in the intervals over a time period of more than fifteen minutes is analyzed to assess risk of an adverse clinical event. In a preferred embodiment, the physiologic signal is an electrocardiogram and the time period is at least fifteen minutes. A preferred method for analyzing the long-time structure variability in the intervals includes computing the power spectrum and fiitting the power spectrum to a power law dependence on frequency over a selected frequency range such as 10 to 10 Hz. Characteristics of the long-time structure fluctuations in the intervals is used to assess risk of an adverse clinical event.

    Abstract: A method for detecting the presence of a degenerative brain disease such as BSE or CJD. A measurement is made of the respiratory sinus arrhythmia of any mammal which is suspected of suffering from the degenerative brain disease. It is assumed that the mammal is suffering from such a disease if the measured RSA is outside a predetermined reference range. The reference range may be determined from data which forms the basis for the calculation of the RSA range by applying a suitable test for randomness.

    Abstract: This invention aims at improving a method of carrying out communication between a transmission unit and a reception unit in a pulse rate meter and providing a pulse rate meter not influenced by noise. To achieve these objects, the present invention provides a pulse rate meter comprising a transmission unit provided with a detecting circuit for detecting an electrocardiographic signal obtained from a pair of electrodes fixed to the portion of a human body which is in the vicinity of the heart (2), and generating a detected signal (3), an interval data preparation circuit for counting the generation interval of the detected signals by a signal of a predetermined cycle and generating interval data (4), a serial data preparation circuit for converting the interval date into a serial signal and generating serial data signal (5), a transmission circuit for modulating the serial data signal and transmit the resultant signal as a ratio signal (6), and a battery as a power source (7), and a reception unit provided with a reception circuit for receiving the radio signal from the transmission unit, demodulating the resultant signal and generating a reception signal (8), a data decoding circuit for decoding the reception signal and generating electrocardiographic interval data (9), an operation circuit for calculating a heart rate on the basis of the electrocardiographic interval data, and a display for indicating a heart rate thereon. According to the present invention, even when the reception circuit receives noise or a signal having no relation with a heart rate, which does not constitute correct data in this case, it cannot be decoded correctly by the decoding circuit, and the data received normally in the preceding time are displayed. Therefore, erroneous heart rates are not displayed.

    Abstract: A heart monitoring system for assessing a patient's cardiac condition. Bioimpedance components induce an electric current through the thorax of a patient's body and a first signal representing amplitude of transthoracic impedance as a function of time is obtained. Electrocardiograph components obtain an electrocardiograph signal from the patient simultaneously with the first signal. First processing circuitry (28) is connected to the bioimpedance components (24) for processing the first signal and producing therefrom a second signal representing cardiovascular hemodynamic changes as a function of time. Second processing circuitry (22) is connected to the electrocardiograph components for measuring changes in the electrocardiograph signal. An analyzer (14) is connected to the first and second processing circuits for producing an output indicating changes in a portion of the second signal over a period of time relative to changes in the electrocardiograph signal over the same period of time. A presentation device (16) presents a visualization of the output of the analyzer for use in providing an assessment of cardiac condition.
