The Healthy Selfie: NuraLogix Unveils Vitals on Video Calls
N
uraLogix, global pioneers of contactless
health monitoring, unveiled its
Anura™ Telehealth platform at CES 2023.
The platform performs continuous health
and vital sign measurements while on a
video telemedicine call. It uses conventional
video cameras to extract facial blood
flow information to accurately calculate a
host of vital signs and health risk assessments,
using only mobile and desktop
devices.
Anura is the only video-based contactless
health monitoring solution that can
measure vital signs and provide health
risk assessments using mobile and desktop
devices. Unlike smartwatches, health
trackers, and rings that track blood flow
through light sensors, Anura can do so
with a video selfie.
The entire Anura platform is powered
by NuraLogix's patented Transdermal
Optical Imaging (TOI™) technology,
a novel form of remote
photoplethysmography (rPPG). It automatically
detects a person's face, identifies
key regions of interest, and extracts
blood flow information that is combined
with powerful AI data models developed
from tens of thousands of patients
with multiple health conditions.
Results are delivered within its intuitive
app, showing information on dozens
of health parameters such as heart rate,
breathing rate, and cuffless blood pressure.
It provides health risk assessments
for some of the most prevalent chronic
conditions, including type 2 diabetes, hypertension,
cardiovascular disease, and
mental health.
Anura Telehealth is designed to enable
true, two-way video telemedicine
sessions and enhance remote patient
monitoring, making these sessions more
useful to both patients and healthcare
professionals.
" Post-pandemic telemedicine has increasingly
become the norm. While convenient
and cost-effective, remote visits have
ROBOTIC END-EFFECTORS
until now lacked the ability for health professionals
to carry out the routine health
checks they would normally perform in the
clinical setting, " says Dr. Keith Thompson,
chief medical officer at NuraLogix.
The ability to carry out real-time health
risk health assessment is a " game changer. "
Anura is unique in that it can assess
HbA1c, monitor fasting glucose, and assess
the risk of type 2 diabetes, hypertension,
and hypertriglyceridemia. Its research
models have currently appeared
in 10 global peer-reviewed research publications,
with three additional publications
in progress covering topics of hypertension,
multi-year cardiovascular
risk, diabetes, and fatty liver disease.
