LifeWave bringing insight to diagnostics and monitoring.

LifeWave has created Ultra-WideBand medical radar sensors capable of non-invasive long-term detection and trending of physiological data for use in diagnostics, treatment management and patient monitoring. Unlike existing technologies, LifeWave sensors require no skin contact, are very compact and inexpensive to manufacture and easily penetrate cloth, skin, bone and air. Easily incorporated into existing multi-parameter monitors, ECGs and external defibrillators these sensors will enable healthcare providers to collect more sophisticated data for early and effective interventions and treatments. In particular, LifeWave sensors have proven capable of detecting cardiac functional measurements including stroke volume and output, respiration, fetal movement and heart rate, and during resuscitation chest compression rate and depth as well as PEA. LifeWave has received grants from the National Institutes of Health and the Office of the Secretary of Defense to investigate the use of our sensors on the battlefield and during resuscitation. LifeWave is currently generating clinical data to prove efficacy at the University of Alabama, Birmingham and the University of California, Davis with exciting initial results with additional clinical trial scheduled during 2008.
