SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MEDICAL ULTRASOUND WITH MONITORING PAD AND MULTIFUNCTION MONITORING SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240225597 titled 'SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MEDICAL ULTRASOUND WITH MONITORING PAD AND MULTIFUNCTION MONITORING SYSTEM

The abstract describes an ultrasound multifunction system that includes a monitoring pad, an ultrasound probe with multiple transducers, an ultrasound beamforming device, and a multifunction monitoring system. The monitoring system can display ultrasound images and other patient measures simultaneously.

  • The ultrasound multifunction system includes a monitoring pad, ultrasound probe, ultrasound beamforming device, and multifunction monitoring system.
  • The monitoring system can display both ultrasound images and other patient measures at the same time.
  • The ultrasound beamforming device controls the ultrasound transducers to focus the ultrasound beam into the patient and read the resulting reflections.
  • The multifunction monitoring system can monitor patient measures unrelated to ultrasound.
  • In some implementations, the ultrasound beamforming device is integrated into the multifunction monitoring system.

Potential Applications: - Medical imaging - Monitoring patient vitals - Diagnostic procedures

Problems Solved: - Simultaneous display of ultrasound images and other patient measures - Integration of ultrasound technology with multifunction monitoring systems

Benefits: - Enhanced monitoring capabilities - Improved diagnostic accuracy - Streamlined medical procedures

Commercial Applications: Title: "Integrated Ultrasound Multifunction System for Enhanced Patient Monitoring" This technology can be used in hospitals, clinics, and medical facilities for various diagnostic and monitoring purposes. It can improve patient care and streamline medical procedures.

Questions about the technology: 1. How does the integration of ultrasound technology with multifunction monitoring systems benefit patient care? - The integration allows for simultaneous monitoring of ultrasound images and other patient measures, leading to more comprehensive and accurate diagnostics. 2. What are the potential cost implications of implementing this integrated ultrasound multifunction system in healthcare settings? - The cost implications may vary depending on the specific needs of the healthcare facility, but the benefits of improved monitoring and diagnostic capabilities could outweigh the initial investment.


Original Abstract Submitted

disclosed is an ultrasound multifunction system having a monitoring pad configured for application to a patient, an ultrasound probe that connects to the monitoring pad and has a plurality of ultrasound transducers, an ultrasound beamforming device configured to control the ultrasound transducers to focus an ultrasound beam into the patient and to read resulting reflections of the ultrasound beam, and a multifunction monitoring system. in accordance with an embodiment of the disclosure, the multifunction monitoring system is configured to monitor other patient measures unrelated to ultrasound and has a display configured to generate a concurrent display of (i) an acquired ultrasound image based on the resulting reflections of the ultrasound beam and (ii) information based on the other patient measures. in some implementations, the ultrasound beamforming device is integrated into the multifunction monitoring system.
