Non-Pharmacological, Neurostimulation Treatment for Hypertension
Tech ID: 33993 / UC Case 2024-99V-0
Brief Description
A groundbreaking non-pharmacological approach to controlling resistant hypertension through personalized,
closed-loop neurostimulation.
Full Description
The Hypertension Elimination via Adaptive Loop Stimulation (HEALS) Patch represents a novel medical device aimed
at reducing blood pressure non-pharmacologically by utilizing closed-loop neurostimulation that adjusts in real-time
to individual patient responses. This technology monitors continuous blood pressure, heart rate, and nerve responses
during electrical stimulation, using biofeedback to fine-tune stimulus parameters for optimized, personalized therapy.
Suggested uses
- Non-pharmacological treatment options for hypertension, especially resistant hypertension.
- Personalized medical devices for cardiovascular disease prevention and management.
- Technologies for real-time monitoring and management of chronic health conditions.
- Innovative solutions for reducing global hypertension prevalence and associated healthcare disparities.
Advantages
- Non-invasive alternative to current surgical interventions.
- Personalized treatment through real-time, closed-loop control and monitoring.
- Reduces blood pressure without affecting heart rate, avoiding negative chronotropic responses.
- Addresses the unmet need for effective treatment in resistant hypertension (RHT) patients.
- Potential to prevent prehypertension from progressing to full-blown hypertension
