US 2026/0165645 A1 · Continuous Vital Sign Monitoring and Automatic Opioid Overdose Reversal Wearable Device

Abstract

The present invention relates to a wearable health monitoring device designed to detect and respond to life-threatening emergencies, including opioid overdoses and respiratory failure. The device comprises a plurality of sensors to continuously monitor oxygen levels, heart rate, blood pressure, and respiration patterns. A microcontroller processes real-time sensor data to detect abnormalities and trigger alerts. If the user remains unresponsive, an automatic intervention system activates, which includes a mild electric shock mechanism to stimulate the nervous system and a built-in naloxone injector to administer an opioid antidote. Additionally, a wireless communication module transmits emergency notifications and GPS coordinates to emergency responders and pre-set contacts. The device prevents overdose-related deaths and improves emergency medical care.
