Abstract
AbstractDespite coronavirus disease 2019, cardiovascular disease, the leading cause of global death, requires timely detection and treatment for a high survival rate, underscoring the 24 h monitoring of vital signs. Therefore, telehealth using wearable devices with vital sign sensors is not only a fundamental response against the pandemic but a solution to provide prompt healthcare for the patients in remote sites. Former technologies which measured a couple of vital signs had features that disturbed practical applications to wearable devices, such as heavy power consumption. Here, we suggest an ultralow power (100 μW) sensor that collects all cardiopulmonary vital signs, including blood pressure, heart rate, and the respiration signal. The small and lightweight (2 g) sensor designed to be easily embedded in the flexible wristband generates an electromagnetically reactive near field to monitor the contraction and relaxation of the radial artery. The proposed ultralow power sensor measuring noninvasively continuous and accurate cardiopulmonary vital signs at once will be one of the most promising sensors for wearable devices to bring telehealth to our lives.
