The invention includes a thermometer with a backlight and a method for lighting the backlight. The thermometer has temperature sensing tip, a processor taking temperature readings and determining a sensed temperature reading of the living being from the temperature sensing tip. The thermometer also includes a display and a backlight for lighting the display. The backlight is activated upon a command from the processor and the processor determines whether to activate the backlight based upon the temperature readings. The method embodiment can includes the steps of using the processor to monitor a temperature change indicated by a temperature sensing element. The processor then detects a temperature decrease and activates a first color light emitting element to backlight a display if the temperature decrease exceeds or equals a predetermined threshold. The thermometer is operable in one of a plurality of selectable operating modes, and the predetermined threshold is dependent upon the selected operating mode. For example, operating modes may depend on patient age range or measurement location. Age range may include infant, toddler and adult.

A congestive heart failure (CHF) mortality risk metric is automatically generated using an implantable medical device and, if it exceeds a predetermined threshold, a warning signal is issued indicating a significant risk of mortality due to CHF, perhaps necessitating more aggressive medical therapy. The CHF mortality risk metric is calculated based on a combination of estimated ventilatory response values and the slope of heart rate reserve as a function of predicted heart rates. Ventilatory response is estimated based on detected values of actual heart rate, arterial oxygen saturation, right ventricular O₂, stroke volume, tidal volume, and respiration rate. Heart rate reserve values are derived from the actual heart rate along with patient age and rest heart rate. The predicted heart rates, which represent the heart rates the patient would achieve if healthy, are derived from activity sensor signals. The CHF mortality risk metric is then calculated as a ratio of ventilatory response and the slope of the heart rate reserve. If the CHF mortality risk metric exceeds a critical threshold value, such as 90, the warning signal is generated. Also described herein are various techniques for estimating ventilatory response.

The instantly disclosed implant is designed to resurface or partially replace (two versions) the arthritic or osteonecrotic femoral head in an anatomic fashion with maximum fixation, durability and stability. It will serve a wide range of patient ages, arthritic/traumatic deformity, and bone pathologies while providing for high performance activity. The implant has absolute fixation utilizing existing, contoured femoral head bone with or without bone cement/porous texturing, an internal plate with modular head attachment, and advantageously benefit from the concurrent use of precision guided instrumentation. This implant optimizes maximal femoral head contact with or without porous contact surfaces but does not rely purely on the head for long term stability. This new concept prevents the common failure mechanisms of femoral neck fracture, loosening and malpositioning as well as makes patient bone quality less important for this high performance hip resurfacing implant.

The invention discloses an anesthesia depth monitoring method. The anesthesia depth monitoring method monitors anesthesia depth by detecting isoprene content in a patient's breath. By detecting the isoprene content in the patient's breath, a real-time noninvasive anesthesia depth monitoring method is established; and the established anesthesia depth monitoring method is far superior to electroencephalography monitoring from a practical point of view. When electroencephalography monitoring is being performed, brain electrodes must be attached to surface areas of corresponding brain regions of the patient; and thus, anesthesia depth cannot be monitored at the corresponding points of the brain in craniocerebral surgery and facial surgery. On the contrary, the method for monitoring the anesthesia depth by detecting the isoprene content in the patients' breath is suitable for any patients for gas sample can be extracted from the patients' breath, no matter the patients are in spontaneous breathing or machine-controlled breathing during operation, so as to be subjected to gas chromatographic analysis; and thus, the method is not limited by conditions, such as surgery type, patient age and the like.
