Eue-Keun Choiand Seoul National University colleages have developed an atrial fibrillation detecting ring, with similar functionality to AliveCor and other watch-based monitors. The researchers claim that the performance is comparable to medical grade pulse oximeters....
Tel Aviv University professor Tal Dvir has printed a 3D vascularized engineered heart, including cells, blood vessels, ventricles and chambers, using a patient’s own cell and biological materials. A biopsy of fatty tissue was taken from...
Sheng Xu, Brady Huang, and UCSD colleagues have developed a small, wearable ultrasound patch that monitors blood pressure in arteries up to 4 centimeters under the skin. It is meant to detect cardiovascular problems...
The Apple Watch has become a serious medical monitor. It will now be able to detect falls, contact emergency responders, and diagnose irregularities in heart rhythm and blood pressure. Its ECG app has been granted a De...
ClotChip assesses blood clotting 95 times faster than current methods, with a single single drop of blood, using miniaturized dielectric spectroscopy. A finger-prick sample is taken from heart arrhythmia, pulmonary embolism, post surgery, or hemophilia patients, to analyze...
Mory Gharib and Caltech colleagues have developed an app which uses a phone camera to monitor heart health. When held to the neck, it infers the left ventricular ejection fraction of the heart by measuring...
Apple has filed patent applications describing wireless earbuds that monitor health while a wearer talks on the phone or listens to music. This has obvious exercise-related implications, but could potentially track the physiological impact...
Northwestern’s John Rogers has developed a sensor that can monitor electrical activity irregularities in the heart for 70 years. The sensor is much safer and more refined than current technology, which degrades easily, and can harm...
Declan O’Regan and MRC London Institute of Medical Sciences colleagues believe that AI can predict when pulmonary hypertension patients require more aggressive treatment to prevent death. In a recent study, machine learning software automatically analyzed moving images of...
