Wearable, Implantable, and Ingestible Medical Devices
NIST researcher Kamran Sayrafian developed a computational model of the lungs with different levels of excess fluid. The long-term goal is to develop a device that could alert the patient or medical provider when it detects pulmonary edema in the user’s lungs.
A few years ago, I heard on the news that many people were being hospitalized with a condition of excess fluid in the lungs, called pulmonary edema.
