Novel Wireless Wearable IAH Detector

Liao Chien-hung, Chang Gung Memorial Hospital (Linkou Branch)
Year 2019Year Period:2019-03-01 to 2020-12-31

Overview

  • Currently testing for intraabdominal hypertension (IAH) tends to be time-consuming and lack in timeliness. As medical personnel also often fail to take early notice, abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS) readily results and leads to organ necrosis or even death.
  • The team has thus developed a novel wireless wearable IAH detector that can be used to monitor critically ill patients on a real-time basis and help determine if intraabdominal perfusion pressure has exceeded the alert threshold. Medical personal can thus render proper treatment when warranted.
  • With its capacity for detecting and treating IAH early on and thus mitigating the incidence of ACS and its mortality, the device can help increase the precision of intensive care for critically ill patients and bring down its costs.

Development Process

Over the course of this project under the Applied Research Incubation Program, the team completed assessment of patent infringement risk, competitiveness analysis, evaluation of patent feasibility, production of a capsule sensor prototype, biocompatibility testing, validation of capsule sensor systems integration, user feedback analysis, and planning for animal tests, as well as preparations for fundraising.
