Wednesday
Continuous Molecular Monitoring (CMM) wearables are the next step in medical wearables after Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) devices
More Details
1:10pm


Robert Batchelor
Head of Biosensors
There is a clinical need for continuous monitoring of vital molecular biomarkers and drug concentrations. However, with the exception of venous oxygen and glucose, these concentrations are currently determined via lab tests. Lab testing costs valuable time, which is relevant for transient biomarkers and critically sick patients. Additionally, lab testing is intermittent at best, and requires infrastructure, reagents, and skilled operators, which aren’t always available in remote locations.
Electrochemical aptamer-based (EAB) sensors, invented and developed by Prof. Kevin Plaxco at the University of California, Santa Barbara, can be adapted for multiple molecular targets, are reagent-free, and work in-vivo, thus enabling on-body wearable devices. Nutromics is integrating the EAB technology into a wearable ‘lab on the skin’ to meet the pressing clinical need of monitoring molecular biomarkers and drugs.
In this presentation I will discuss the EAB sensor technology, how it compares with continuous glucose monitors, the advantages and limitations of the technology, and finally, the potential of Continuous Molecular Monitoring (CMM) wearable devices using EAB sensors.

Camera-based Vital Signs Measurement: From its Origins to the Deep Learning Era
More Details
1:10pm


Philipp Rouast
Researcher



Simple RGB video of the human face gives away physiological information through tiny changes in skin color and motion — imperceptible to the human eye, but measurable by the computer to produce estimates of vital signs such as heart rate and respiration rate. The technology that accomplishes this is know as remote photoplethysmography (rPPG), highlighting its major advantage of not requiring physical contact between subject and sensor.
First proposed in 2008, rPPG has yet to be widely commercialized. This is in part due to the difficulty in obtaining reliable measurements in challenging real-world conditions, especially regarding illumination conditions and subject movement. This talk will (i) introduce the basis for the signals obtained with camera sensors, (ii) walk through the technological improvements made by researchers since 2008, and (iii) summarize current issues and give an outlook on future applications.

Medical Reliable Cardiovascular Health Monitoring Using New Wearable Technology
More Details
1:33pm


Ahmad Qasem
Chief Science & Research Officer
Current wearable sensor technologies provide limited and less reliable health parameters based mainly on heart rate measurement. Any reliable cardiovascular health assessment requires blood pressure measurements. Many attempts had been made to provide blood pressure measurements using commercially available wearable sensors like in smart watches. However, all attempts failed in measuring blood pressure as required by medical standards. On the other hand, FDA cleared Cardiex\AtCor medical technology became the ‘gold standard’ in measuring non-invasively heart and arterial pressure parameters reflecting cardiac and arterial health.
The challenge is to adapt such medical technology into the wearable sensor devices. This involves examining different and new sensors. It also involve new methods of sensor signals based on cardiovascular physiology to extract clinically significant central arterial pressure parameters. This presentation will review current health wearable technologies, challenges in providing reliable cardiovascular health assessment, and Cardiex current development of medical wearable devices to provide clinical heart and arterial health assessments.

Smart Insoles for Clinical Research : a Problem-Solving Approach to Deliver Value with Continuous Mobility Assessment
More Details
false
1:56pm


Alexis Mathieu
Co-Founder & CEO
Bringing a drug to market is long and difficult. Studies estimate that the clinical trial process lasts 9 years and costs $1.3B on average. Clinical trials are conducted in multiple phases, with cost and complexity increasing from Phase I to Phase III. Despite the time and capital invested in trials, only 1 in 10 drugs that enter Phase I of a clinical trial will be approved by the FDA.
There is Large medical need to evaluate to treat the physical deterioration of physical status. A growing number of patients with mobility impairments lacks accurate tools to diagnose, monitor expensive evolutive diseases and intervene efficiently.
Gait is the simplest and most actionable biomarker to monitor multiple diseases but vastly underutilized as a biomarker or outcome measure because gait analysis is often not high quality when assessed in the clinic.Clinical gait tests, today, are used to identify mobility disorders, measure the efficacy of a therapeutic treatment. This is done in a controlled setting at sites. However, the technologies or design used present strong limitations. Episodic assessments, sometimes observational, don't generate sufficient sensitive data to demonstrate subtle changes.
The FeetMe solution allows the collection of validated gait data at site with the Insoles, and in the same accurate way in the patients daily life allowing continuous recording of gait data.

Improving trust for connected devices in remote monitoring, with security-by-design technology
More Details
1:56pm


Anders Strömberg
Head of Wearable Platform



In this talk, Anders Strömberg, Director, Head of Wearable Platform Division, Sony Network Communications Europe, will discuss the issue of trust in IoT devices for remote monitoring, the challenges and some possible solutions.
Care providers need to monitor the wellbeing of their patients. That means staying connected with them wherever they are, whatever they’re doing. Most of today’s remote monitoring applications require pairing with cell phones or smartwatches, using standard LTE connectivity.
Healthcare providers are continuously seeking to increase the quantity and quality of information available, and to offer end-users more practical, timely insights. How can they do this while also providing solutions that are as easy for all kinds of end-users to handle?
The answer lies in the convergence of new IoT, telecommunications and AI technologies which enable access to rich data and allow service providers to develop new solutions; solutions that, for example, improve adherence to prescriptions, enable early detection of conditions like diabetes and boost the users’ general health and wellbeing.
Both service providers and end users show a high level of acceptance and willingness to adopt these new technologies in the pursuit of better health and health services. However, there are some serious trust issues when it comes to IoT. Although the risks are not new, concerns have risen to a new level because of the vast number of IoT devices deployed in the field and the way in which they are being used.
Against this backdrop, Strömberg will discuss the balancing act required to bring trust and quality of service together to enable the future of healthcare and put forward some ideas about how to provide access to more, better and diverse data that enables greater insights and tailored services.

Soft Implantable Electrodes to Interface with the Brain
More Details
5:23pm


Ludovic Serex
COO & Co-Founder
Neural implants aim at restoring lost or impaired functions of the nervous system by electrical stimulation or recording of the brain. Current neural implants suffer from a mechanical mismatch compared to the soft host tissue, as they constrain mechanically the physiological motion of the central nervous system. This mismatch causes poor electrode-tissue contact, leading to unspecific stimulation or recording, as well as chronic scarring. At Neurosoft Bioelectronics, we overcome these fundamental limitations by developing soft neural electrodes, using more compliant materials, that seamlessly interface with the brain, promoting the long-term bio-integration of the devices and reducing surgical risks.
