Axalton ECG Stress Vest
2 in 1: Wearable stress-ECG kit & next-generation holter monitor
Traditional holter monitors are wearable ECG devices that give doctors a better and broader view of heart health compared to normal ECGs. Holters are usually worn for an extended period of time, constantly recording the patient’s heartbeats. This way cardiac events are easier to detect.
As the world’s population and the number of geriatric people are growing, there is a significantly higher demand for holters.
At Axalton Med Tech we are currently developing a holter system that is smaller, more comfortable to wear and by collecting crucial data about one’s heart can even save lives.
The problem with holters
The devices today consist of electrodes and cables that make them uncomfortable and difficult to wear during a daily routine. The look and feel of these devices are clearly functional, but lack any friendliness or intuitive approach. Wearers are constantly reminded that they are being examined and diagnosed, causing anxiety.
Our Solution
Minimizing the discomfort of wearing holters is our main goal. Getting rid of annoying cables and a fairly heavy “box” would improve the overall patient experience, not just by convenience but reducing anxiety.
The heart of our development is an integrated system, where the sensors are placed inside a T-shirt made of conductive textiles.
Getting valuable measurements is as simple as putting on a comfortable T-shirt. The data is then sent to a secure hospital server where it can be reached any time, is stored and also available for external customers.
This way the patient's heart health journey is easy to follow and evaluate.
In development
Axalton ECG Stress Vest is currently under development in close cooperation with our partner universities and medical advisors. Following the thorough research steps, hardware and software development, we are ready to conduct the authorization phase through medical initiatives as the FDA.
