Full textAbstract:
Diabetes is one of the most common non-communicable diseases globally, and is the fourth or fifth leading cause of death in many countries. Medical technology for the management of diabetes has advanced steadily since the discovery of insulin in the early 20th century. Today, individuals with diabetes benefit from home-use blood glucose meters, continuous insulin pumps and, most recently, continuous glucose monitoring (CGM). Numerous studies have shown that frequent use of real-time CGM can improve glycaemic control with reduced risk of hypoglycaemia. However, current CGM devices have not been wholeheartedly embraced, limiting their potential. A CGM device that is accurate, non-invasive, pain-free and non-intrusive to daily activities could drive increased adoption and use of CGM, potentially improving health and quality of life for many individuals living with diabetes.

Full textAbstract:
Clinical fetal monitoring devices can only be operated by medical professionals and are overly costly, prone to detrimental false positives, and emit radiation. Thus, highly accurate, easily accessible, simplified, and cost-effective fetal monitoring devices have gained an enormous interest in obstetrics. In this study, a cost-effective and user-friendly wearable home fetal movement and distress detection device is developed and assessed for early-stage design progression by facilitating continuous, comfortable, and non-invasive monitoring of the fetus during the final trimester. The functionality of the developed prototype is mainly based on a microcontroller, a single accelerometer, and a specialized fetal phonocardiography (fPCG) acquisition board with a low-cost microphone. The developed system is capable of identifying fetal movement and monitors fetal heart rhythm owing to its considerable sensitivity. Further, the device includes a Global System for Mobile Communication (GSM)-based alert system for instant distress notifications to the mother, proxy, and emergency services. By incorporating digital signal processing, the system achieves zero false negatives in detecting fetal movements, which was validated against an open-source database. The acquired results clearly substantiated the efficacy of the fPCG acquisition board and alarm system, ensuring the prompt identification of fetal distress.

Sleep is essential to physical and mental health. However, the traditional approach to sleep analysis—polysomnography (PSG)—is intrusive and expensive. Therefore, there is great interest in the development of non-contact, non-invasive, and non-intrusive sleep monitoring systems and technologies that can reliably and accurately measure cardiorespiratory parameters with minimal impact on the patient. This has led to the development of other relevant approaches, which are characterised, for example, by the fact that they allow greater freedom of movement and do not require direct contact with the body, i.e., they are non-contact. This systematic review discusses the relevant methods and technologies for non-contact monitoring of cardiorespiratory activity during sleep. Taking into account the current state of the art in non-intrusive technologies, we can identify the methods of non-intrusive monitoring of cardiac and respiratory activity, the technologies and types of sensors used, and the possible physiological parameters available for analysis. To do this, we conducted a literature review and summarised current research on the use of non-contact technologies for non-intrusive monitoring of cardiac and respiratory activity. The inclusion and exclusion criteria for the selection of publications were established prior to the start of the search. Publications were assessed using one main question and several specific questions. We obtained 3774 unique articles from four literature databases (Web of Science, IEEE Xplore, PubMed, and Scopus) and checked them for relevance, resulting in 54 articles that were analysed in a structured way using terminology. The result was 15 different types of sensors and devices (e.g., radar, temperature sensors, motion sensors, cameras) that can be installed in hospital wards and departments or in the environment. The ability to detect heart rate, respiratory rate, and sleep disorders such as apnoea was among the characteristics examined to investigate the overall effectiveness of the systems and technologies considered for cardiorespiratory monitoring. In addition, the advantages and disadvantages of the considered systems and technologies were identified by answering the identified research questions. The results obtained allow us to determine the current trends and the vector of development of medical technologies in sleep medicine for future researchers and research.

Full textAbstract:
Healthcare professionals, industry, and academics have all recently expressed a strong interest towards WiFi sensing. These techniques could be used to identify critical occurrences that sensitive persons may suffer, such as falls, sleep abnor-malities, wandering behavior, respiratory illnesses, and irregular heart activity. In this paper, we propose a low-cost, non-intrusive method to remotely monitor el-derly people without deploying devices on their bodies in a given space, using channel state information (CSI) from passive WiFi detection. Specifically, we monitored variables such as sitting and standing activity, and experimental valida-tion in practical situations with variable occupants, various environmental set-tings, and interference from other WiFi devices demonstrates robustness and scalability. Our results suggest that the proposed method can be put into practical-real use to detect activity and alert emergency personnel immediately, providing rapid medical assistance, saving lives, minimizing damage, and reducing anxiety for elderly people residing alone.

Full textAbstract:
The rapid proliferation of the Internet of Things (IoT) has paved the way for transformative innovations, and this paper explores its profound impact on the realm of elderly care within smart homes. We present a pioneering IoT-based approach for human activity recognition, addressing the critical need for accurate and non-intrusive monitoring of elderly individuals. Our IoT-based approach begins with data preprocessing, where raw sensor data is refined using median filtering, reducing noise and ensuring high-quality inputs for our model. We apply the series_to_supervised transformation to convert the sensor data into a supervised learning format, which is critical for training the GRU-based activity recognition model. The heart of our approach lies in the federated distillation-based training strategy. Edge devices within the IoT network locally train their GRU models using their datasets while sharing knowledge with a central server and other edge devices. Knowledge distillation further enhances the model's performance by transferring knowledge from the global model to the edge devices. Experimental analysis demonstrated an impressive accuracy of 95% and an F1-score of 0.94, Our system excels in recognizing and classifying a wide range of human activities, from daily routines to emergencies.

Full textAbstract:
Without affecting the integrity or stability of the heritage monuments, vibration-based techniques provide useful solutions for acquiring global information about them. By studying the dynamic response to suitable excitation sources, it is feasible to define the mechanical characteristics of structures and identify and locate defects in their global behaviour. Laser Doppler vibrometry (LDV), which enables non-contact measurements of the vibration velocity of moving surfaces using a focused laser beam, is a highly desirable technique for qualitative dynamic characterisation and damage assessment. LDV is a simple and non-intrusive approach. It permits remote measurements and has a high degree of sensitivity and frequency adaptation. In addition, the system is entirely computer controlled, providing simple data storage, processing, and analysis. LDV has been originally researched and developed for structural and modal shape analysis of physical prototypes, in-service devices (e.g., machinery components), medical imaging applications, and damage detection and analysis relevant to small-scale non-destructive testing (NDT), and evaluation of micro to meso-targets (e.g., fracture detection and mapping in composites, modal shape and vibration analysis of objects, etc.). In spite of several successful applications in the case of bridges and thin structures, ambient vibration testing in an integrated form that includes dynamic identification, sensitivity analysis, and numerical modelling update employing modern sensor non-contact technologies is still uncommon. In this paper, the authors intend to explore further the possibility of combining ambient vibrations and OMA in combination with the non-contact LDV sensing technique in order to remotely acquire mechanical waves travelling in historical structures, track the actual behaviour of such structures, and calibrate their finite element numerical models.

Full textAbstract:
Hypertension is the most frequent chronic and non-communicable disease all over the world, with about 1.5 billion affected individuals worldwide. Its impact is currently growing, particularly in low-income countries. Even in high-income countries, hypertension remains largely underdiagnosed and undertreated, with consequent low rates of blood pressure (BP) control. Notwithstanding the large number of clinical observational studies and randomized trials over the past four decades, it is sad to note that in the last few years there has been an impressive paucity of innovative studies. Research focused on BP mechanisms and novel antihypertensive drugs is slowing dramatically. The present review discusses some advances in the management of hypertensive patients, and could play a clinical role in the years to come. First, digital/health technology is expected to be increasingly used, although some crucial points remain (development of non-intrusive and clinically validated devices for ambulatory BP measurement, robust storing systems enabling rapid analysis of accrued data, physician-patient interactions, etc.). Second, several areas should be better outlined with regard to BP diagnosis and treatment targets. Third, from a therapeutic standpoint, existing antihypertensive drugs, which are generally effective and well tolerated, should be better used by exploiting available and novel free and fixed combinations. In particular, spironolactone and other mineral-corticoid receptor antagonists should be used more frequently to improve BP control. In particular, some drugs initially developed for conditions different from hypertension including heart failure and diabetes have demonstrated to lower BP significantly and should therefore be considered. Finally, renal artery denervation is another procedure that has proven effective in the management of hypertension.

Ce travail de thèse aborde la problématique des méthodes de surveillance des patients, en particulier des nouveau-nés, qui souffrent de limitations en termes de coûts, d'efficacité et d'invasivité. Elle explore une technologie innovante de surveillance non intrusive basée sur la ballistocardiographie (BCG). Cette méthode utilise un matelas équipé de capteurs intégrés pour mesurer les déformations dues à l'activité cardiovasculaire. Pour assurer la précision des mesures, une série d'essais sur des échantillons de mousses de polyuréthane prélevés dans des matelas médicaux a été réalisée, suivie de modélisations numériques validées expérimentalement. Les résultats montrent qu'il est nécessaire d'établir, grâce au modèle numérique, les zones du matelas à privilégier afin d'obtenir des informations précises et fiables sur l'activité cardiovasculaire. Ces travaux ouvrent la voie à des applications médicales en néonatologie, pédiatrie et télémédecine, pour une surveillance cardiaque plus accessible et moins invasiveThis thesis addresses the issue of patient monitoring methods, particularly for newborns, which face limitations in terms of cost, efficiency, and invasiveness. It explores an innovative non-intrusive monitoring technology based on ballistocardiography (BCG). This method uses a mattress equipped with integrated sensors to measure deformations caused by cardiovascular activity. To ensure measurement accuracy, a series of testson polyurethane foam samples taken from medical mattresses was conducted, followed by numerically validated modeling. The results show that it is necessary, through the numerical model, to establish the areas of the mattress to prioritize in order to obtain precise and reliable information on cardiovascular activity. This work paves the way for medical applications in neonatology, pediatrics, and telemedicine, offering more accessible and less invasive cardiac monitoring solutions

New medical device technology is essential for diagnosing, monitoring, and curing wide spectrum of diseases, anomalies and inflictions. For neural applications, no matter whether non-intrusive or not, currently available devices are generally limited to either a curing or a probing function. In this paper we review the technology requirements for new neural probe and cure device technology. Recent advances in micro and nano-scale devices engineering and wireless power technology offer a great potential to revolutionize many health care systems. The integration of wireless power technology into smart microsensor and probe systems greatly simplifies the healthcare devices and systems and also offers additional device functions for even complex jobs. The wireless power feed technology eliminates the pains and irritations associated with implanted power devices and wires. Neural electronics interfaces (NEI) can be coupled and integrated with the wireless power receiver (WPR). The implantable probe-pin devices (PPD) that include the NEI and WPR allow real-time measurement and control/feedback possible for remedial process of neural anomaly from normal functions. Such a system like a PPD should have an embedded expert system that performs semi-autonomous functions through a routine of sensing, judging, and controlling the neural anomaly.
