Automated systems, methods, and apparatus for breath training
First Claim
1. A system for breath training, the system comprising:
- an output device;
at least one sensor configured to detect physiological data from a trainee during a first breath training regimen, the first breath training regimen comprising a plurality of instructions, wherein detected physiological data includes blood oxygen saturation level; and
a data processor coupled to the output device and the at least one sensor, the data processor configured to;
provide instructions as part of the first breath training regimen to the trainee through the output device, the instructions including instructing the trainee to hold their breath,receive the physiological data detected from the at least one sensor during the first breath training regimen,analyze the physiological data that was detected during the first breath training regimen to determine when the trainee has resumed normal breathing using the detected blood oxygen saturation level and to determine a compliance of the trainee with the first breath training regimen based on the physiological data detected after the instruction instructing the trainee to hold their breath and before the determination of when the trainee has resumed normal breathing, andprovide feedback to the trainee after the trainee completes the first breath training regimen that is based on the analysis of the physiological data received during the first breath training regimen, the feedback including a second breath training regimen that is based on the determined compliance of the trainee with the first breath training regimen.

Abstract
Systems, methods and apparatus for breath training are disclosed. The systems and apparatus may comprise an output device, at least one sensor configured to detect physiological data from a trainee, and a data processor coupled to the output device and the at least one sensor, the data processor configured to provide instructions to a trainee through the output device based on a breath training regimen and to receive and analyze the physiological data detected from the at least one sensor. The methods may comprise the steps of instructing a trainee based on a breath training regimen, detecting physiological data from the trainee through at least one sensor, analyzing physiological data and providing feedback to the trainee based on the analyzed physiological data.

15. A method for breath training, comprising the steps of:
-
instructing a trainee through an output device based on a first breath training regimen, the first breath training regimen including a plurality of instructions, the plurality of instructions including instructing the trainee to hold their breath; detecting physiological data from the trainee during the first breath training regimen through at least one sensor, the detected physiological data including a blood oxygen saturation level; determining, by a data processor, an ending of at least one of the plurality of instructions of the first breath training regimen based on at least a rise in the blood oxygen saturation level prior to instructing the trainee to perform a subsequent one of the plurality of instructions; analyzing the physiological data detected during the first breath training regimen by the data processor to determine when the trainees has resumed normal breathing using the detected blood oxygen saturation level and to determine compliance of the trainee with the first breath training regimen based on the physiological data detected after the instruction instructing the trainee to hold their breath and before the determination of when the trainee has resumed normal breathing, the data processor coupled to the output device and the at least one sensor; and providing feedback generated by the data processor to the trainee after the trainee completes the first breath training regimen that is based on the analysis of the physiological data received during the first breath training regimen, the feedback including an updated, second breath training regimen that is based on the determined compliance of the trainee with the first breath training regimen. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19)

20. An apparatus for breath training, the apparatus comprising:
-
an output device; at least one sensor configured to detect physiological data from a trainee during a first breath training regimen, wherein the detected physiological data includes blood oxygen saturation level and a heartbeat of the trainee; and a data processor coupled to the output device and the at least one sensor, the data processor configured to; receive and analyze the detected physiological data, determine an identity of the trainee based on the physiological data obtained from the trainee by performing a spectrum analysis of the heartbeat of the trainee to determine a power level and frequency of the heartbeat of the trainee and calculating a square root of the power level and frequency of the heartbeat of the trainee, and comparing the square root of the power level and frequency of the heartbeat of the trainee to a stored set of physiological data associated with the trainee, provide instructions to the trainee through the output device as part of a first breath training regimen and the determined identity of the trainee, the instructions including instructing the trainee to hold their breath; analyze the physiological data that was detected during the first breath training regimen to determine when the trainee has resumed normal breathing using the detected blood oxygen saturation level and to determine a compliance of the trainee with the first breath training regimen based on the physiological data detected after the instruction instructing the trainee to hold their breath and before the determination of when the trainee has resumed normal breathing, and provide feedback to the trainee after the trainee completes the first breath training regimen that is based on the analysis of the physiological data received during the first breath training regimen, the feedback including a second breath training regimen that is based on the determined compliance of the trainee with the first breath training regimen. - View Dependent Claims (21, 22, 23)
