Researchers from the University of Maryland Baltimore and University of Maryland Baltimore County are seeking patent protection for an angle-tuned (AT) ring coil for improving the depth-spread performance of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) coils as well as high-performance composite coils and multisite TMS systems.
Researchers from the University of Washington are seeking patent protection for systems, apparatuses, and methods for treating acute ischemic stroke with electrical stimulation from electrocorticography electrodes that calm overactive neurons in the brain in the acute phase following ischemic stroke, thereby preserving neuronal tissue and neuroplasticity.
A team of inventors predominantly based in the state of New York are seeking patent protection for an earbud system that integrates real-time electroencephalography (EEG) monitoring with audio playback. Using specialized silicone electrodes, it captures and interprets EEG data, serving as a passive and continuous tool for screening neurological conditions.
Researchers from Indiana University are seeking patent protection for an electromagnetic field (EMF) generation system for treating neurodegenerative diseases. The EMF generation system emulates a small-scale magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) machine, producing the same 64 MHz frequency at a much lower operating power.
In what represents the first patenting from Immersive Reality Group LLC, the company’s co-founders describe their Intellighealth system for detecting the early onset of respiratory diseases using artificial intelligence and wearable remote health monitoring technologies.
The first patenting from Mhealthcare Inc. describes a patient examination table or bed equipped with a variety of sensors, data from which may be analyzed with trained machine learning models to facilitate risk assessment and diagnosis of non-neurotypical developmental conditions such as autism in infants and young children by predicting cognitive, behavioral, social and developmental outcomes as early as the first three months of life. It is also claimed that the table may be used to diagnose epilepsy and Alzheimer’s disease.
Lumitex Inc. seeks patent protection for a phototherapeutic apparatus for treating inflammatory conditions, with a particular focus on treating acute respiratory distress syndrome.
Vaxess Technologies Inc. seeks patent protection for devices that enable the reliable application of silk fibroin-based microneedle medicament patches used for delivering small molecule drugs, vaccines, peptides, biologics, antibodies, hormones or other materials into or through the skin.
Dr. Pfleger Arzneimittel GmbH is seeking patent protection for a system and a corresponding computer program product for assisting in alleviating overactive bladder syndrome and incontinence symptoms, particularly reduction of micturitions and reduction of urine loss. The system is particularly suited for being implemented and distributed as a smartphone app which may be operated by the user.
The first patenting from 4M Biotech Inc. describes a wound dressing with incorporated color-changing pH sensors that are continuously responsive to the pH of wounds or wound exudate.
