Abstract
Devices, systems, and methods for non-invasively detecting and monitoring medical conditions using multiple modalities of sensing include at least two electrodes configured to be positioned on a subject, an acoustic sensor configured to be positioned on a subject, a thoracic impedance measurement module connected to the electrodes, for measuring a first impedance between the electrodes, and a heart acoustic measurement module connected to the acoustic sensor, for detecting and measuring a heart sound from the acoustic sensor.
Claims10
A system comprising:
- a device configured to capture measurements related to health of a subject, comprising:
- a first electrode coupled to a first extension of the device, the first extension of to be removably directly affixed to the chest of the subject and in contact with skin of the subject on a first side of a lung of the subject, the first electrode to apply an electrical potential to the skin of the subject;
- and
- a second electrode coupled to a second extension of the device, the second extension at an opposite end of the device from the first extension, the second extension to be removably directly affixed to the chest of the subject and in contact with the skin of the subject on a second side of the lung of the subject, the second electrode to detect a disturbance caused by the electrical potential being applied;
- and
- a base station configured to couple to the device, the base station configured to retrieve data related to the disturbance detected from the device and upload the data to a cloud.
3 more elements
A device comprising:
- one or more sensors to be removably directly affixed to the chest of a subject and in contact with skin of the subject;
- and
- one or more measurement modules coupled to the one or more sensors, the one or more measurement modules configured to:
- cause a first portion of the one or more sensors to detect a thoracic impedance of a portion of the subject;
- cause a second portion of the one or more sensors to detect heart sounds of the subject;
- generate representations of the detected thoracic impedance;
- and
- generate representations of the detected heart sounds.
