This study aims at comparing photoplethysmogram (PPG) waveform characteristics in healthy subjects, including the change in amplitude, width, and time to peak (Tp) of the signal. PPG signals were recorded at six different body sites (wrist upper, wrist lower, ring finger, thumb, neck, and head) under both simulated normal and apneic conditions. A key objective of this work was to identify optimal LED intensities for detecting these waveform features at each site, providing valuable insights for future development of PPG hardware by pinpointing the most effective intensities. Additionally, the research aims for a better understanding of the variation of the PPG waveform between different body sites.","PeriodicalId":72237,"journal":{"name":"Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society.

The common technological questions related to this modality are extent of light penetration and associated scalp and brain temperature increases. Limited computational efforts to quantify these aspects are restricted to simplified models. We consider here a 3D high-resolution (1 mm) and anatomically realistic model to simulate light propagation and thermal effects. We consider a dose of 100 mW /cm2 and use a single light source targeting the F3 location based on 10-20 EEG. Our simulations reveal that while the induced irradiance distribution largely mimics the shape and extent of the source, there is a blurring effect at the brain. This diffusion is attributed to the scalp, skull, and compounded at the surface of the cerebrospinal fluid. Around 1% of the injected irradiance reaches the gray matter. As expected and aligned with previous efforts, the scalp accounts for the greatest loss (~65%). We observe a nominal 0.38 °C rise in the scalp in regions directly underneath the source. There is negligible temperature rise in the brain. Finally, irradiance reduces to 0.01 mW /cm2 at ~13.5 cm from the scalp surface.","PeriodicalId":72237,"journal":{"name":"Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society.

To advance this field, this paper models computationally three types of soft elastomeric actuators designed to perform deep cyclic compression stimuli on human soft tissues for muscle rehabilitation by mechanotherapy. The analysis focuses on the interaction between a phantom representing transversely isotropic muscle and homogeneous skin, with a soft robotic device comprised of a hyperelastic actuator and a rigid support. Results from deformation, stress-strain and surface pressure analysis demonstrate efficient actuation, suggesting deep and focused stimulation on the muscle, while actuators exhibit reliable safety factors and load distribution, implying longer operational life. This lightweight and compact soft robotic device is suitable for integration into a wearable suit for targeted muscle groups stimulation in the lower limbs. Furthermore, this computational approach represents a significant advance in the biomechanical study of soft robot-human tissues interaction, with potential for generalization in similar biomedical device applications.

This paper presents the prototype of a soft cable-driven glove capable of easily adjusting the glove to fit the individual physique of the patient and customizing finger rehabilitation exercises. Considering the length of the phalanges and the thickness of the finger, the position of fixed parts on the index finger can be easily adjusted. In order to enable various index finger rehabilitation appropriate for the patient, four cable-based cable routing for the index finger was adopted. The kinematic model of the glove was experimentally verified and utilized to plan the rehabilitation exercises. Based on this kinematic model, four representative finger rehabilitation exercises were operated with the developed glove on four different sizes of artificial fingers. The adaptability and adjustability of the glove to four artificial fingers were proved by demonstrating the possibility of assisting with various rehabilitation exercises while driving the three joints of the index finger independently.","PeriodicalId":72237,"journal":{"name":"Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society.

On the contrary, peripheral venous oxygen saturation (SvO2) assessment remains challenging due to the absence of rhythmic blood volume fluctuations in the venous system. This paper introduces an electro-pneumatic system emulating the Venous Muscle Pump Test (VMPT) to induce venous blood pulsations. The system achieves 0-120 mmHg pressure pulsations on the calf at 0.5 Hz, facilitating SvO2 estimation through a toe-attached PPG sensor. A proof-of-concept study on two subjects reveals PPG curves and venous blood volume variations comparable to conventional VMPT. The system outperforms in acquiring arterial pulsations, enabling simultaneous SpO2 estimation and the possibility of local oxygen consumption estimation. Estimated Ratio-of-Modulation and SvO2 values (84-89 %) align with classical VMPT, with lower mean deviation (3-15 % vs. 10-18 %). While promising, further studies with larger sample sizes, varied pressure parameters, and reference SvO2 values are essential for validating the system's efficacy. Future tests will further explore the system's potential to detect venous valve leakage.","PeriodicalId":72237,"journal":{"name":"Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society.

Validated through experiments on EEGNet and the BCI Competition IV 2a dataset, the algorithm proves beneficial for practical and cost-efficient scenarios. Specifically, experiments on the BCI Competition IV 2a dataset demonstrate that LSvT-NI with white noise and pink noise at 5dB SNR achieves a remarkable 77.3% and 72.7% reduction in channels, along with 11.7% and 11% reductions in model size, and 86.9% and 71.8% in computation complexity.","PeriodicalId":72237,"journal":{"name":"Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society.

The system takes input data from the current visit and the three previous visits to make recommendations. We trained and evaluated our model on 99,417 anonymized primary care outpatient visits. Our model achieved a mean average precision (mean AP) of 0.8724, 0.7419, 0.6805, and 0.6184 at the first, second, third, and fourth levels of the ATC system, respectively.
