摘要： A body worn patient monitoring device includes a flexible substrate having a plurality of electrical connections adapted to be coupled to a skin surface to measure physiological signals. The flexible substrate is adapted to be directly and non-permanently affixed to a skin surface of a patient and configured for single patient use. A communication-computation module, removably attached to an upper surface of the flexible substrate, is configured to receive physiological signals from the flexible substrate and includes a microprocessor that is configured to process and analyze the physiological signals. A series of resistive traces screened onto the flexible substrate are configured as at least one series current-limiting resistor to protect the communication-computation module.

摘要： An apparatus includes a first signal line configured to couple signals from a first skin electrode to a first input of a differential amplifier comprised as a front-stage in a signal detection circuitry for measurement of biometric signals sensed by the first skin electrode; a second signal line configured to couple signals from a second skin electrode, different from the first skin electrode, to a second input of the differential amplifier of the signal detection circuitry for measurement of biometric signals sensed by the second skin electrode; and an impedance circuitry coupled between the first signal line and the second signal line in order to tune input impedance of the differential amplifier. Impedance of the impedance circuitry is higher on a first frequency band covering a frequency band of the measured biometric signals than on a second frequency band not covering the frequency band of the measured biometric signals.

摘要： An implantable device provides artificial electrical stimulation of animal tissue using a plurality of electrodes. A sensing unit detects a physiological parameter at a stimulation site. A control unit governs the stimulation, in response to the detected physiological parameter, by selecting certain pairs of the electrodes and by defining the shape, duration, and duty cycle of a segmented stimulation waveform. A stimulation signal generator produces the segmented stimulation waveform that has a first segment and a second segment that with respect to the first segment is longer in duration lesser in magnitude and opposite in polarity.

摘要： A cardiograph has a remote front end which is connected to a host via a cable. The front end includes a clock and an analog-to-digital converter. The converter periodically holds and samples patient ECG signals. Each conversion takes place within the same fixed length of time. A clock signal is transmitted to the host on one of the conductors in the cable while digital words, each of which represents a sampled value of the ECG signal, are serially transmitted on another conductor in the cable. The clock signal synchronizes ac voltages applied to several power supplies with the sampling rate of the converter so that the ECG signal is sampled at the same phase of each ac voltage applied to the power supplies. The sampling thus occurs at the same phase, and thus the same amplitude, of each periodic noise cycle induced by the power supply electromagnetic fields. The periodic noise is thus removed from the sampled signal while a dc offset equal to the amplitude of the periodic noise at the sampling phase is added.

摘要翻译： 心电图仪具有通过电缆连接到主机的远程前端。 前端包括一个时钟和一个模拟 - 数字转换器。 转换器周期性地保存并采样患者ECG信号。 每次转换都会在相同的固定时间内进行。 时钟信号在电缆中的一根导体上发送到主机，而数字字（每个代表ECG信号的采样值）在电缆中的另一导体上串行传输。 时钟信号使施加到几个电源的交流电压与转换器的采样率同步，使得ECG信号在施加到电源的每个交流电压的相同相位被采样。 因此，采样因此发生在由电源电磁场引起的每个周期性噪声周期的相同相位，因此发生相同的幅度。 因此，从采样信号中去除周期性噪声，同时增加等于采样相位周期噪声振幅的直流偏移。

摘要： An apparatus (10) for transmitting a patient physiological signal is provided. A converter (12) includes a front end circuit (28) that receives and conditions a patient physiological signal, V.sub.P, and produces conditioned signal, V.sub.C. A magnitude of V.sub.C is proportional to an amplitude of V.sub.P offset by a negative DC voltage. A track and ramp circuit (30) receives V.sub.C and produces a tracking voltage, V.sub.T. A magnitude of V.sub.T is inversely proportional to the magnitude of V.sub.C when the track and ramp circuit is in a tracking mode. A controller (16) includes a clock that produces clock pulses, V.sub.CK and a divider (38) that divides the clock pulse frequency and produces a trigger pulse, V.sub.TRIG. A leading edge of the V.sub.TRIG pulse starts a counter (40) counting V.sub.CK pulses. The leading edge of an optically transmitted V.sub.TRIG pulse is applied to the latch circuit (32), which produces a ramp command voltage, V.sub.R. A high V.sub. R voltage places the track and ramp circuit (30) in a ramping mode and causes the magnitude of V.sub.T to decay at a constant rate. The latch circuit produces an echo pulse, V.sub.E, when V.sub.T decays to zero volts. An optically transmitted V.sub.E pulse is applied to the counter (40). A leading edge of the optically transmitted V.sub.E pulse stops the counter (40) from counting V.sub.CK pulses. The counter (40) produces an output signal, S.sub.OUT, having a value in the form of V.sub.CK pulses counted by the counter (40) during the elapsed time between the production of the V.sub.TRIG pulse and the receipt of the optically transmitted V.sub.E pulse. The S.sub.OUT value is proportional to the amplitude of V.sub.P.
