Problem
High blood pressure affects over a billion people and is the leading cause of premature death, yet many patients remain undiagnosed because existing monitoring methods are uncomfortable, require bulky cuffs or invasive arterial lines, and often need periodic calibration, limiting frequent and reliable measurements.
Solution
Novosound’s senseBP is a handheld, cuffless device that uses a patented flexible ultrasound array to directly measure arterial wall movement, providing real‑time blood pressure readings with medical‑grade accuracy. The system operates without any calibration, eliminating the need for periodic cuff adjustments. Its ultrasound‑based approach is less affected by motion, skin tone, or peripheral perfusion, addressing the reliability issues of optical PPG sensors. The device is designed for daily use in both clinical and home settings, offering a comfortable, non‑compressive measurement experience. Data can be transmitted securely for integration into electronic health records or remote monitoring platforms, enabling continuous hypertension management.
Target Audience
Primary customers are hospitals, clinics, and home‑care providers that need reliable, frequent blood pressure monitoring for patients with hypertension, as well as telehealth platforms seeking a non‑invasive, calibration‑free solution.
