Dr Chuck Morris,CEO of NFL Alumni Performance Labs,said,"The inclusion of predictive vital sign analytics will be key in delivering our state-of-the-art sports performance facilities all over the US. We are glad to continue our development of these technologies with Nervotec to help our athletes reach greater heights."
Advancing Remote Patient Monitoring with Predictive Vital Sign Analytics
On top of contributing to performance sports science,Nervotec's real-world technology application advances research towards managing chronic disease. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC),telehealth interventions such as remote patient monitoring technologies and mobile health (mHealth) that are supported by predictive vital sign analytics have been proven to be effective in mitigating chronic disease risk factors. With predictive vital sign analytics,chronic disease risk can be quantified and actionable steps such as tailored workout routines can be proposed according to the individuals' chronic disease risk profiles.
Nervotec's computer vision algorithm technology known as remote photoplethysmography (rPPG) uses a mobile phone's camera that records the patient's face which allows for healthcare practitioners to remotely and efficiently measure vital signs. Further applications are being developed with AI that calculates risk of influenza-like illnesses,cardiovascular disease and other comorbidities. This is currently undergoing clinical validation in Singapore in which results will be used for the Health Science Authority's medical certification.
Dr Ian Mathews,Medical & AI advisor to Nervotec and Deputy Group CTO of the National University Hospital of Singapore said,"Thepartnership with NFL Alumni Performance Labs validates Nervotec's technological application beyond the borders of Singapore that has the potential for far-reaching global impact. The application of predictivevital sign analytics is also a significant step in advancing the development of telehealth intervention,an emerging healthcare technology."
