Systems, devices, and methods for tracking abdominal orientation and activity

摘要

The various embodiments herein relate to systems, devices, and methods for tracking abdominal orientation and activity for purposes of preventing or treating conditions of pregnancy or other types of medical conditions. In certain specific embodiments, the system, device, or method relates to identifying abdominal orientation risk values, calculating and updating a cumulative risk value, comparing the cumulative risk value to a threshold, and outputting a warning when the cumulative risk value crosses the threshold.

主权项

1. A wearable device system for reducing risks associated with birth, the wearable device comprising:
(a) one or more sensors for generating sensor data indicative of an orientation of an abdomen of a user; and (b) a processor coupled with the one or more sensors, the processor configured to:
monitor the orientation of the abdomen of the user by processing the sensor data to estimate the orientation of the abdomen of the user;identify orientation risk values associated with the estimated orientations of the abdomen to produce a time series of identified orientation risk values;calculate and update a first cumulative risk value by calculating a first moving average for a subset of the time series of identified orientation risk values associated with the estimated orientations of the abdomen, the subset for the first moving average having a first size;compare the first cumulative risk value to a first threshold; andoutput a warning when the first cumulative risk value crosses the first threshold.
