toSenses‘s CoVa necklace, and prototype floor pad and cuff/handle combination, measure pulse oximetry, heart rate, blood pressure, respiration rate and temperature. The various forms of monitoring are meant to improve compliance and ease of use.
CoVa has received FDA clearance, and is primarily used as a congestive heart failure alert/management system.
The scale-like pad uses bioimpedance and ECG to measure thoracic fluid levels and also measures weight.
The cuff/handle device measures vital signs, plus blood pressure. The user holds the device at the stomach to measure thoracic impedance, and inflatable bladders in the arm cuff compress the radial artery to measure blood pressure.
