Inventor: RUNG MARTIN
IPC: A61B5/12
Filed: 2010-07-05
Abstract: A system for estimating the occlusion effect comprising a hearing aid adapted for being set up for operation in an occlusion measurement mode. The hearing aid comprises a first transducer (9) for transforming an acoustic sound level external to a hearing aid user's ear canal into a first electrical signal. The hearing aid comprises a second transducer (10) for transforming the acoustic sound level in the occluded ear canal into a second electrical signal. The system comprise analogue to digital converters (13, 14) for converting signals from the first and second transducer into digitized electrical signals, and signal processing means comprising a filter bank (21, 22) for splitting the first and the second digitized electrical signals into a first and a second band split digitized electrical signal, respectively. The system further comprise sound pressure estimating means for estimating the sound pressure in each frequency band for both the first and the second band split signal, and leakage estimating means for estimating the leakage of signal into a signal band from other bands due to non ideal band pass filtering. The system is adapted such that the estimated sound pressure must be a factor vr larger than the estimated leakage when deciding if the estimated sound pressure in a given band can be applied in the calculation of the occlusion effect.

Abstract: Systems have been devised for health management based upon genetic markers. Specifically, systems are arranged to compute genetic risk for several factors relating to metabolism and weight gain in view of various genotypes at particular markers in an individual's genome. An algorithm which depends upon these risk calculations and in further view of the presence of additional variants in the genome under test is executed to arrive at a diet type selection for the particular user. In additions to diet type selections, specific supporting diet related recommendations related to eating behaviors, food reactions and nutritional needs, based upon markers found in the genetic profile, are additionally included in a diet action plan.
