Simple SummaryContent extracted from patent full text and abstract with AI.

This invention describes a non-invasive device and method for measuring blood parameters—particularly the concentration of blood components like glucose (blood sugar)—directly from a blood vessel using electromagnetic fields and dielectric coupling. The system uses an electrical line assembly placed on the skin above a blood vessel and a network analyzer to generate and detect changes in electromagnetic fields caused by the blood vessel. These field changes are analyzed to determine the targeted blood parameter without needing to take a blood sample.

Use CasesContent extracted from patent full text and abstract with AI.

  • Non-invasive blood glucose monitoring for diabetes management.
  • Continuous real-time blood analysis for patients in hospitals or at home.
  • Wearable health tracking devices (e.g., smartwatches, fitness bands) offering blood analysis capabilities.
  • Blood component monitoring for critical care or surgery.
  • Veterinary use for non-invasive blood parameter tracking in animals.

BenefitsContent extracted from patent full text and abstract with AI.

  • Provides non-invasive measurement, eliminating the need for blood draws and finger pricks.
  • Enables continuous or real-time monitoring without user intervention.
  • Reduces discomfort, risk of infection, and delays compared to traditional invasive methods.
  • Potential for integration into wearable devices for convenient daily health management.
  • Can deliver more immediate and accurate insights into blood parameter fluctuations (e.g., after meals), supporting better health outcomes.

Patent Abstract

The recording device (100) comprises an electrical line assembly (104) dielectrically coupled to blood vessel (102), and a network analyzer (106) for exciting the electrical cable assembly (104) to extinguish an electromagnetic field (108). A predominant energy flow of the electro-magnetic field is concentrated in the blood vessel with dielectric coupling of the electric line arrangement on the blood vessel. An independent claim is also included for a method for recording a blood count parameter in a blood vessel.
