IMPLANTABLE MONITORING DEVICE AND METHOD OF OPERATING THE IMPLANTABLE MONITORING DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18093856 titled 'IMPLANTABLE MONITORING DEVICE AND METHOD OF OPERATING THE IMPLANTABLE MONITORING DEVICE

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes an implantable monitoring device that measures the posture, activity, and bioinformation of a user. It includes sensors to measure the user's posture and activity, as well as bioinformation such as electrocardiogram (ECG), pulmonary impedance, heart movement, thorax movement, and respiratory quotient (RQ). The device also has electrodes and an analog circuit to detect and process the bioinformation, and a processor to monitor abnormal states of the user's heart and lung based on the collected data.

  • The device measures the posture and activity of a user, as well as various bioinformation related to the heart and lung.
  • It includes sensors, electrodes, an analog circuit, and a processor to collect and process the data.
  • The processor monitors for abnormal states of the heart and lung based on the collected data.

Potential Applications

  • Medical monitoring of patients with heart and lung conditions.
  • Fitness tracking and monitoring for athletes and individuals interested in their health.
  • Early detection of heart and lung abnormalities for preventive healthcare.

Problems Solved

  • Provides continuous monitoring of heart and lung conditions, allowing for early detection of abnormalities.
  • Enables personalized healthcare by tracking posture, activity, and various bioinformation.
  • Offers a non-invasive and convenient method for monitoring heart and lung health.

Benefits

  • Early detection of heart and lung abnormalities can lead to timely medical intervention and improved patient outcomes.
  • Continuous monitoring allows for real-time feedback and personalized healthcare.
  • Non-invasive implantable device provides convenience and comfort for users.


Original Abstract Submitted

An implantable monitoring device includes first sensors to measure state information of one or both of a posture and an activity of a user and second sensors to measure bioinformation of two or more of an electrocardiogram (ECG) of a heart of the user, a pulmonary impedance of a lung of the user, a movement of the heart, a movement of a thorax including the lung, and a respiratory quotient (RQ) of the lung, two electrodes to detect bioinformation to measure one or both of the ECG and the pulmonary impedance, an analog circuit to process the detected bioinformation to measure the one or both of the ECG and the pulmonary impedance, and a processor to monitor an abnormal state of the heart and the lung of the user based on the state information and the bioinformation.
