A medical technology company, Alimetry, has unveiled an advanced AI-powered wearable that could transform gut health diagnosis and change the lives of millions suffering from gut health illnesses.
The new smart wearable device holds great potential to simplify and speed up the diagnostic process, solving the longstanding challenges associated with the traditional diagnostic approaches that are often slow and inefficient. This often leaves patients enduring prolonged suffering and reduced quality of life due to uncertain health conditions.
Powered by artificial intelligence, Alimetry’s advanced wearable is designed to overcome the common shortfalls associated with traditional diagnostic approaches by accurately analyzing and diagnosing gut disorders faster while also providing clear insight for effective treatment of detected disorders.
How the AI-powered Wearable Works
Alimetry’s wearable device works more like an ultra-high-resolution electrocardiogram (ECG). It detects and measures the electric currents generated by the gut from the skin using Body Surface Gastric Mapping.
The company’s Gastric Alimetry system records the signals during a meal intake and digestion and transmits the data to the app, where it’s uploaded to the cloud, analyzed using AI-driven algorithms to produce a Gastric Alimetry Report.
The auto-generated report provides critical data-driven clinical health insights crucial for diagnosis and developing a personalized treatment plan for patients.
With one in ten individuals experiencing gut symptoms such as chronic indigestion, nausea, and abdominal pains, this new approach to gastric diagnostics could help many patients get accurate diagnoses and quick medical interventions, improving their quality of life.
