Embodiment Construction

[0023] refer to figure 1 , which shows a belt or strap 10 for attachment to a patient. As used herein, the term "band" refers to a wearable device that can be wrapped around and secured to a target tissue of a patient. It should be understood that the terms "belt" and "band" may be used interchangeably herein, as described hereinafter. Furthermore, as used herein, the term "target tissue" refers to any intended target tissue of a patient (eg, tissue of a body part such as chest, waist, wrist, upper arm, leg, forehead, etc.). Such as figure 1 As shown, strap 10 includes a strap or harness body 12 . Strap body 12 has a generally rectangular shape; however, other shapes are possible (eg, circular, triangular, square, etc.). The medical monitoring device 14 is mounted to the strap body 12 at a device mounting location or portion 16 . For example, medical monitoring device 14 may be a vital signs monitoring device. In the exemplary embodiment, medical monitoring device 14 mon...

Abstract

The present invention provides a strap (10) for positioning a medical monitoring device (14) over a portion of a target portion of a medical subject. The strap (10) includes a flexible strap body (12) including at least one of a plastic layer (28), a fabric layer, and a flexible rubber layer. At least one ferromagnetic portion (30) is disposed on or within at least the first end (22) of the flexible strap body (12). At least one magnet (26) is disposed on or within a second end (24) of the flexible strap body opposite the first end (22). The flexible strap body (12) is sized to wrap around a target portion of a medical subject with overlapping first and second ends (22, 24) such that the at least one magnet (26) and the at least one ferromagnetic portion (30) are magnetically coupled to secure the flexible strap body (12) wrapped around a target portion of a medical subject.

Description

technical field [0001] The following generally relates to medical monitoring devices, medical monitoring device placement systems, and related fields. However, it should be understood that the present invention is also applicable to other usage scenarios and is not necessarily limited to the aforementioned applications. Background technique [0002] Pneumonia and other respiratory diseases are common and fatal in some areas, especially among children under five. Rapid and accurate assessment of respiration, especially respiration rate, is a key diagnostic tool for the assessment of these diseases. Conventionally, a hockey puck-sized accelerometer-based respiration monitor is attached to the chest with an adhesive, either directly or using a disposable bag. If directly attached, the device must be sterilized between patients. However, the availability of single-use bags, as well as the availability of sterilization equipment, may be limited in some regions. [0003] Anoth...
