Healthcare systems too often focus on treating diseases rather than preventing them. This drives up costs and leads to many preventable health problems. Fortunately, some changes are underway.Reimbursing digital health apps like RE.DOCTOR helps health insurers build stronger relationships with their customers and gain a competitive edge.Health insurers are expanding...

Sobriety test, which commonly uses a breathalyzer for estimating blood alcohol content (BAC) from a breath sample, is commonly used to detect drunk driving. Although drinking alcohol has long been a common practice in people's daily life, it may induce negative impacts when consumed in excess. The impact of drinking...

PPG can monitor different physiological parameters of the animal, such as heart rate, pulse wave characteristics, blood oxygen saturation, etc. The standard procedure to diagnose cardiovascular diseases (CVD) of domesticated animals (dogs) is electrocardiography (ECG) through monitoring at the vet clinic. Often results obtained this way are erroneous because of...

The global burden of diabetes is rapidly increasing, and expected to top 693 million by 2045. The subtle onset of type 2 diabetes delays diagnosis and increases morbidity. Given the multifactorial vascular effects of diabetes, RE.DOCTOR has developed a smartphone-based photoplethysmography (PPG) tool that provides a widely-accessible digital biomarker for diabetes....

More than 300 million people are suffering from asthma, with around 461,000 expected deaths each year. Whilst asthma is a lifelong condition, most patients can be symptom-free with treatment and a self-management plan.

Much of that cost is driven...

The cardiovascular effects of cocaine use are acute. Objective cocaine use data in the natural field setting can be detected using heart rate detection based on reflectance-based photoplethysmography (PPG). Additional potential areas for extending research with photoplethysmography (PPG) include expanding into the detection of both stimulants and opioids, by measuring...
