Episode notes
In this episode, we delve into the revolutionary work of Dr. Kireev, who is pushing the boundaries of health monitoring with wearable technology. The continuous monitoring of arterial blood pressure (BP) in non-clinical or ambulatory settings plays a critical role in understanding various health conditions, especially cardiovascular diseases. Traditional ambulatory BP devices, while useful, can be cumbersome and intrusive, limiting their usability and comfort for the user.
Enter Dr. Kireev's cutting-edge research. He introduces a wearable continuous BP monitoring platform that is based on electrical bioimpedance, utilizing atomically thin, self-adhesive, lightweight, and unobtrusive graphene electronic tattoos as interfaces with the human body. This technology is able to monitor arterial BP continuously and non-invasively for over 300 minut ...
