Wearable vital signs monitoring device HOWDY SENIOR

ECGtemperatureheart rate

In collaboration with universities and specialized companies, ComfTech has developed HOWDY SENIOR: a wearable monitoring solution designed for adults, without age limits, in a continuous, non-invasive and real-time way by detecting vital parameters such as heart rate, ECG real-time, respiratory rate, position and movement. Continuous and non-invasive monitoring Wearing a simple garment incorporating ComfTech textile technology, it is possible to monitor patients in the facility or at home. HOWDY SENIOR is designed to be integrated into the user’s daily life as a flexible, adaptable and non-invasive support. ComfTech’s design has always placed the user at the centre, the device is designed to not interfere with the person’s lifestyle and can be worn all day long in total freedom. ComfTech’s sensorised garments are made of a special conductive yarn that guarantees absolute and long-lasting comfort. The fabric clings like a second skin, leaving complete freedom of movement and safely detecting the signal. Elements of the system The system consists of: • HOWDY SENIOR electronic unit, class IIb medical device • HOWDY App for data reading • Sensorised garment, class I medical device To facilitate the management of multiple patients, ComfTech has also developed software to display the parameters measured by several devices in one central monitor. The system can also be integrated with compatible thermometer and pulse oxymeter, whose data are displayed in the HOWDY App or in the central monitor. How does it work? Once the HOWDY SENIOR electronic unit is attached to the smart garment, the parameters detected by the textile sensors are processed and transmitted to the App.
