In this work we proposed a sensor system prototype based on the combination of a coplanar micro strip (CPμS) waveguide and polymer nanofibers met (electrospun) called, CPμS/PNW sensor system, for target element (bio element or gas) detection. The detection idea is based on the impedance change measurement in the frequency range. The first step toward to develop the sensor is to investigate and understand the low frequency (0.1 to 1 MHz) electrodynamics response properties of the CPμS waveguide with (CPμS/PNW) and without nanofibers. We develop a transmission line mathematical model to describe the CPμS/PNW sensor system, the mathematical model was simulated with Scilab and the results were compared with the CPμS/PNW experimental data to see the degree of agreement between model and experiment. The impedance curves obtained from the experimental data show a good agreement with the model, which predict CPμS/PNW (CPμS + electrospun) impedance curve lower than the CPμS impedance curve. The electronics property (impedance) of the PEO electrospun was calculated from the difference between both impedance curves, this difference represent the polymer nanofibers mat impedance. The curves exhibited approximately a sub-linear power law decrease with frequency, which is consistent with the behavior found in polymers. The polymer nanofibers mat was produced by electrospinning method, where the diameter of the nanofibers obtained are in the range of 100 nm and 900 nm.","PeriodicalId":277757,"journal":{"name":"2015 IEEE International Symposium on Medical Measurements and Applications (MeMeA) Proceedings","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-05-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129908406","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The proposed method blends together two recently presented techniques, with the purpose of emphasizing small movements, such as respiratory movements possibly present in a video stream, in order to detect them. Initially, the system performs a spatial decomposition of the video frames in a pyramidal representation, in which each layer contains different spatial details. The levels are then pixel-wise temporally filtered with an infinite impulse response (IIR) filter, purposely designed to extract components having a periodicity compatible with the respiratory rate. Afterwards a single motion signal is extracted from each level. Finally, the extracted signals are jointly analyzed according to the maximum likelihood (ML) criterion in order to estimate the respiratory rate. The parameters extracted by our algorithm show a good agreement with those indicated by a gold-standard polysomnographic system. Therefore, our results, although preliminary, are encouraging and show that the respiratory rate can be reliably measured and monitored by a low-cost, wire-free, video processing-based system.","PeriodicalId":277757,"journal":{"name":"2015 IEEE International Symposium on Medical Measurements and Applications (MeMeA) Proceedings","volume":"94 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-05-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130076951","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The later is, in particular, a key quantity to assess when the aim is to verify if the patient has fully developed the capacity to regulate his/her temperature. Presently, the procedure followed by clinicians is based on a subjective test, which sees the heating system of the curl switched off; if the central temperature of the patient will not be reduced below 35°C in the following two hours, the patient is considered able to thermoregulate himself. The aim of this paper is to propose a measurement procedure aiming to verify if the patient has the ability to autonomously thermoregulate. The procedure is based on the use of a multipoint (up to 16 sensing points), measurement system of the superficial temperature, that can assess the patient temperature (on 6 sites) and the surrounding temperature (inside and outside the crib), while the heating system is switched off. In this paper, 48 premature patients (mean gestation age 34 week and mean weight 1791 g) have been tested. Results demonstrate that from the measured data, it is possible to correctly identify patients with an adequate thermoregulation capacity (sensitivity of 0.81 and specificity of 0.89) and with a rapid procedure (<; 5 min).","PeriodicalId":277757,"journal":{"name":"2015 IEEE International Symposium on Medical Measurements and Applications (MeMeA) Proceedings","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-05-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128847851","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Similarly, a post-surgical patient may be discharged from a medical facility to their house, which electronically facilitates their recuperation and promotes recovery. Smart environments are making the task of providing assistive technology in the home easier and more affordable. Near-field communication (NFC) has become popular in recent years. Increasing uptake of NFC-enabled smartphones has opened a new avenue to facilitate creation of a smart environment without the need for significant infrastructure. HTML5 is the latest version of the hypertext markup language, with unique code that enables access to advanced features on a smartphone. Proprietary apps can potentially be inconvenient and inconsistent and may even decrease uptake of the technology. In this paper, we propose a new methodology to enable NFC tags and NFC smartphones in conjunction with HTML5 backbone code, to be used for smart environments in home health care applications without the need for specific applications to be installed on the smartphone. Results show significant promise with just the built in phone software with use of NFC and HTML5 for various applications of smart environments. In many common tasks in a smart environment that increase patient safety, NFC tags can be not only informative, but an integral component of the system by triggering specific HTML5 code to provide appropriate responses - without the need to install specialized apps as long as the NFC is enabled in the mobile device.","PeriodicalId":277757,"journal":{"name":"2015 IEEE International Symposium on Medical Measurements and Applications (MeMeA) Proceedings","volume":"616 ","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-05-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114091313","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this field inkjet printing technology has a number of attractive features and received a lot of interest with the development of specifically designed functional inks, including conductive inks based on silver nanoparticles or organic polymers. Some works in literature investigated the use of inkjet printing technique for the development of electrophysiological sensors. The aim of this work was to explore the potentialities of low cost inkjet printing for the prototyping of high-density electrode arrays for the detection of surface electromyographic signal (sEMG). A low cost inkjet system for the printing of conductive tracks based on standard office printer has been setup and tested for the prototyping of sEMG detection systems. The setup allowed the printing of high density bi-dimensional electrode arrays. The sEMG detection systems have been tested on the abductor pollicis muscle and biceps brachii muscle during isometric and dynamic contractions. The detected signals show a good quality and a stable contact without movement artifacts. The proposed system offers the possibility to design and print electrode arrays with different electrode patterns in a few minutes. This characteristic allows developing sEMG detection systems that can be adapted to the anatomy of the muscles under investigation in a short time.","PeriodicalId":277757,"journal":{"name":"2015 IEEE International Symposium on Medical Measurements and Applications (MeMeA) Proceedings","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-05-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122508717","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
