Indian Scientists Develop New Technology to Monitor Lungs
19:09 27.09.2023 (Updated: 10:37 29.09.2023) The innovation has been developed by a group of inventors from the Indian Institutes of Technology at Kanpur and Kharagpur, and the International Institute of Information Technology Raipur and was funded by the Indian Government's Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology.
In yet another medical technology breakthrough, the Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur (IIT-K) has developed a compact affordable continuous lung health-monitoring system that can help healthcare teams to track patients’ lung health status.
This
ground-breaking technology aims to offer rapid access to data on lung diseases, allowing patients to conveniently monitor their condition from the comfort of any location.
According to Professor Subramaniam Ganesh, the officiating director of IIT Kanpur, lung care will significantly improve and patients will greatly benefit from the advances in cutting-edge healthcare technology.
The system consists of an advanced acoustic mask equipped with highly sensitive sound sensors, along with an intelligent corded device that can detect the imperceptible sounds of the user's breathing coming from their mouth and nose.
The corded device of the mask consists of a Wi-Fi module for sharing the lung health status with the healthcare provider.
The device comes with a particularly robust battery, ensuring uninterrupted monitoring. It also features a local storage unit for long-term retention of processed audio data, along with a powerful processing unit equipped with built-in memory and a microprocessor.
This real-time continuous monitoring system would assist doctors in responding promptly to any possible change or deterioration in their health status.
The continuous lung health-monitoring system tackles the challenges of delays in remote monitoring and network issues.
According to a global report from
US-based 'MarketsandMarkets', the device is set to revolutionise the patient health-monitoring market.
The report forecasts that the market for monitoring devices will reach a staggering $65.4Bln by 2027, with a remarkable compound annual growth rate of 9.1 percent.
This represents a tremendous opportunity for the industry and highlights the immense impact that this device will have on patient health.
