Our Products

In Muskellet we have developed tools for effective management of hypertension, that includes accurate cuff-based measurement of blood pressure and better personalization of hypertension management.

​

We have also developed a novel pulse oximeter for more accurate  measurement of arterial oxygen saturation.

Our techniques are based on two simple electro-optic sensors (photoplethysmographic – PPG sensors) on fingers in the two hands.

Clinical Studies

The personalized hypertension management includes measurement of physiological features of the patient, that are related to hypertension. 

​

The physiological features are:

​

  • Arterial stiffness

  • Autonomic nervous system activity

  • Tissue blood flow

  • Oxygen saturation

​

All feature are measured by our PPG sensors

The projects of cuff-based measurement of blood pressure and better personalization of hypertension management for adults, and more accurate pulse oximeter for adults and newborns, demand long-time clinical studies and will be performed with governmental funds. 

​

The required time for neonatal clinical studies on cuff-based measurement of blood pressure and better personalization of hypotension management in neonates is relatively short.

​

More PPG-based projects, which need clinical studies with relatively short time, are planned:

  • Detection of neonatal congenital heart diseases by PPG

​

  • Measurements of orthostatic hypotension by continuous PPG assessment of blood pressure​

​

  • Assessment of ankle blood pressure and blood perfusion in foot in peripheral arterial disease.
