==== ""CardioSign & MIT"": Wearable blood pressure sensor offers 24/7 continuous monitoring====
**{[[http://cardiosign.com/ CardioSign]] & MIT, Dept. Mechanical Engineering / Professor Harry Asada}**
(April 2009)
Blood pressure can change from minute to minute, so continuous monitoring offers a much broader picture of cardiovascular health. The new monitor, which loops around the wrist and the index finger, is just as accurate as traditional cuff devices but much less cumbersome, allowing it to be worn for hours or days at a time... **[[[http://www.physorg.com/news158423042.html 6]]]**

Activity monitors using accelerometers can aid in weight control by estimating the calories you expend during the day. Scientists say that the gadgets can be good motivators, but that you shouldn't count on them for an accurate estimate of daily calorie burn. However one device the "GoWear", based on the SenseWear technology from [[http://www.bodymedia.com/ BodyMedia]], is an armband that detects not just motion but also skin temperature, heat flux, or the amount of heat leaving the body, and galvanic skin response -- a measure of electrical conductivity that changes when you sweat. The information is fed into mathematical equations programmed into the device and aimed at estimating your total daily calorie burn. **[[[http://online.wsj.com/article/SB124570834470838683.html#articleTabs%3Darticle 3]]]**

[[http://www.nestlenutrition.com/en Nestle HealthCare Nutrition]] and [[http://www.bodymedia.com/ BodyMedia]] has teamed to promote SenseWear WMS to clinics using Nestle's medically monitored weight loss program (OPTIFASTS). SenseWear WMS consists of an armband, display and Web site that allow both professional and patient to see how many calories they really burn, how many they really consume and how well they really sleep, every day. The solution promotes patient self-care and enables practitioners to offer short-term metabolic and lifestyle assessments as well as more effective and educational weight-management programs. **[[[http://www.redorbit.com/news/health/1466028/nestle_healthcare_nutrition_inc_and_bodymedia_form_strategic_partnership_to/ 4]]]**

It could be a dieter's best friend or worst nightmare: the calorie monitor, which is being developed by biotech incubator [[http://philometron.com/ PhiloMetron]], uses a combination of sensors, electrodes, and accelerometers that--together with a unique algorithm--measure the number of calories eaten, the number of calories burned, and the net gain or loss over a 24-hour period. The patch sends this data via a Bluetooth wireless connection to a dieter's cell phone, where an application tracks the totals and provides support.
