The rippling effects of technology have reached far and beyond, but the corner which it altered the most was probably the nook of medical sphere. With the creation of a MedTech framework, we have pretty much abandoned the old and outdated way of doing things, thus ushering ourselves into an era that is more patient-centric. The success of this move is hard to encapsulate in words. As a result of a friendlier medical setup, today’s generation feels more encouraged to talk openly about health-related issues. This plays a pivotal role in building a future where people are better equipped with knowledge of how to take care of themselves in the most effective manner. An example that carries this purpose wholeheartedly would be the one of fitness drives we see happening all around us. However, despite now having a platform where we can achieve the aforementioned purpose, we have felt the need for some help, and once again it feels like technology is coming to our rescue.
In a bid to make healthcare much more than just about suffering patients, many MedTech companies as well as some other tech giants have been focusing on creating devices that promote an enhanced well-being in general. We can consider Apple smart watches as a fair benchmark here. These watches track your heart rate, sleep quality, and pulse rate etc to provide you with an insight of your body, thus giving all the directions that lead to a healthier you. Over the recent past, the buzz around these smart watches has grown exponentially, and with reports emerging of another breakthrough in wearable technology, it now seems to have even higher peaks in sight.
Reliefband, a wearable technology developer, has just released its latest piece of creation in Reliefband Sport, a 1PX7-designated waterproof wearable therapeutic device. The device is built to prevent and treat nausea symptoms that are usually associated with conditions like morning sickness, anxiety, hangovers, migraines, and chemotherapy etc. An interesting feature of Reliefband Sport is that its operational capacity is split into six different levels, each one holding a different amount of intensity to accommodate varying levels of situational severity. The device comes with an in-built rechargeable that will easily last upto 30 hours on moderate intensity. While talking about their latest product, CEO of Reliefband, Rich Ransom had this to say:
“Reliefband is one of the only solutions that prevent nausea and vomiting before it begins while also being effective after symptoms have already occurred.”
