Cardiac monitor using gait information

This invention describes a system that monitors a person's walking or balance patterns to assess their risk of a future heart or lung problem. It gathers movement data from a sensor worn on the body or implanted, then analyzes this information to predict potential cardiac or pulmonary events. The system could then help adjust a patient's treatment.

Why it matters: Filed only a year ago, there have been no major technological breakthroughs in sensors or medical AI since 2025 that fundamentally change its feasibility. The main hurdle remains the extensive clinical validation and regulatory approval needed for a medical device predicting cardiac or pulmonary events.

Status: Not in forceListed as no longer active. The specific reason is not in the record we hold.
How hard to build: SpecializedImplantable/wearable sensors, custom electronics, medical algorithms.
