摘要
记者从发明人提供的背景资料中获得以下引述：“医学界需要确定一些新生儿的运动和/或活动情况。”包括长期监测可能与疾病相关的相对神经元活动的原因镇静状态和/或镇静过度或不足，有助于减轻运动对生理信号的影响以及它们导出的参数(例如来自经胸肌跳动(TTI)信号的呼吸速率)。有一系列的深度传感技术可用于确定各种生理和环境参数，包括呼吸速率、潮气量、分钟容积、呼吸力、活动度、是否存在可用于检测新生儿运动和/或活动的床等。视频(RGB)和深度传感相机具有巨大的潜力，可以提供不需要n接触的方法来确定深度生理参数》。
Abstract
Reporters obtained the following quote from the background information supplied by the inventors:“There is a need in the medical community to determine neonata l motion and/or activity for a numberof reasons including to monitor relative n eonatal activity over time which may correlate with diseasestate and/or over or under sedation and to help mitigate the effect of motion on physiological signa lsand their derived parameters (e.g. respiratory rate from the Transthoracic Im pedance (TTI) signal).A range of depth sensing technologies are available to de termine various physiological and contextualparameters, including respiration r ate, tidal volume, minute volume, effort to breathe, activity, presence inbed, etc., that may be useful in detecting neonatal motion and/or activity. Specifica lly, video (RGB) anddepth-sensing cameras have enormous potential to provide no n-contact methods for the determination ofphysiological parameters.”
