Wearable medical devices (SWDs) are emerging as powerful patient monitoring and data collections tools. These smart, multiplexed devices allow us to quantify dynamic biological signals in real time through highly sensitive and miniaturized biosensors. SWDs can enable monitoring at risk patients at home, diagnosing early disease progression, and reducing healthcare expenditures by means of prediction and prevention of disease. Company X has developed a novel Artificial Intelligence (AI) driven wearable device that detects, and monitors blood oxygen saturation, heart rate, respiratory rate, and blood pressure all at a single point of contact at the wrist called AI-Vital. The general aim of the proposed research is to perform pre-clinical safety testing for this AI-powered medical device to drive it forward towards US Food & Drug Administration (FDA) / Health Canada regulatory approval.
