Description:HEALTH-MONITORING WEARABLE DEVICE AND METHOD FOR DETECTION AND PERSONALIZED INSIGHTS
FIELD OF INVENTION
[0001] The present disclosure relates to health monitoring and diagnostic devices, and particularly relates to noninvasive health-monitoring wearable device and method for detection and personalized insights.
BACKGROUND
[0002] With the increasing prevalence of chronic diseases such as respiratory, diabetes, cardiovascular conditions, and metabolic disorders, the need for continuous health monitoring has become paramount. Existing health monitoring methods primarily focus on periodic clinical tests or require invasive procedures that may not be feasible for regular use. Also, there are limited options of ambulatory regular health monitoring at personal end that is non clinical monitoring.
[0003] For instance, disease like diabetes is a chronic condition characterized by elevated blood sugar levels. It occurs when the body either does not produce enough insulin (type 1) or becomes resistant to insulin (type 2). Without timely diagnosis and management, diabetes can lead to serious complications such as blindness, kidney failure, and nerve damage. It also significantly increases the risk of strokes and coronary heart disease. However, with early detection and proper management, individuals can improve their quality of life and effectively manage the condition.
[0004] The increasing global burden of chronic diseases such as cardiovascular conditions (such as COPD, Congestive heart failure), diabetes, respiratory diseases (such as Asthma), and mental disorders, there is a growing demand for solutions that can provide proactive health management. Conventional medical assessments such as blood tests, ECGs, or regular doctor visits offer valuable information but typically occur sporadically and do not provide continuous, real-time insights into an individual's health. As a result, many health issues go undetected until they progress to more severe stages, reducing the effectiveness of treatment.
[0005] Several blood-based methods are available for detection and monitoring. However, these approaches are invasive, require specialized laboratory equipment, the usage frequency is limited, require consumables for each measure, and are not always portable. It also involve blood sampling. Wearable devices such as fitness trackers and smartwatches have gained popularity for monitoring activity levels, heart rate, and physiological parameters.
[0006] Consequently, efforts have been made previously to provide health monitoring devices to detect abnormalities. For instance, U.S. Patent Application no. US15/465,069 discloses a method and system for continuous monitoring of health parameters during exercise. The system includes one or more wearable devices affixed on the user with a chest strap or adhesive sticker, coupled with an application running on a computing device (smartphone/smartwatch), and provides the user or the concerned personnel with various insights about the general health of the user. Although, the device monitors activity levels and heart rate, but it does not provide comprehensive, condition-specific insights or personalized health management.
[0007] Further, it is well-known that a person’s breath contains various volatile and nonvolatile organic compounds that may reflect their metabolic and health status. For instance, research such as Szulejko et al.’s article "Evidence for Cancer Biomarkers in Exhaled Breath" highlights the presence of cancer biomarkers in the breath. Also CO2 is a marker of nutrition (carbohydrate and fat) metabolism, respiratory or cardiovascular conditions.
[0008] In this context, Indian patent application no. 202021000591 discloses method and apparatus for breath-based biomarker detection and analysis. The invention provides a device for non-invasive monitoring and/or detection of diabetes in a subject based on detection of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in the exhaled breath of a subject. However, the device limits itself to detection of diabetes using carbon nanotube-based array sensor and does not provide a comprehensive health analysis along with personalized health recommendations for user. It relies on a handheld breath-analysis tool for breath collection through mouth, limiting use to specific conditions and scenarios.
[0009] Another technology is disclosed by U.S. Patent application US14/907,302 which provides determining respiratory gas exchange in a subject. The method includes providing a representative inhale-exhale cycle breathing volume over time profile; and using data relating to oxygen consumption or carbon dioxide production during the inhale-exhale cycle that met the correspondence criterion to determine a metabolic property in the subject.
[0010] Similarly, Lumen Metabolic Tracker is a hand-held tracker device to track metabolism of a person by analyzing exhaled CO₂. However, it faces several limitations:
• It uses a single-breath CO₂ analyzer to estimate metabolic state, focusing on metabolic flexibility rather than comprehensive health tracking.
• It is limited to CO₂ levels from breath, primarily offering data on carbohydrate vs. fat usage for energy derived from RQ.
• The breath sample collection is from mouth and recommended method is inhale hold exhale.
• The device operation requires controlled breathing for each measurement, demanding user compliance and specific breath-holding techniques.
• It also relies on a handheld breath-analysis tool for breath collection through mouth, limiting use to specific conditions and scenarios.
• It relies on established methods of breath analysis without significant advancements in multi-parameter tracking or scalability.
[0011] Therefore, there remains a need for a wearable health-monitoring device capable of detecting early signs of various health conditions, providing personalized insights, and offering continuous, non-invasive monitoring of multiple health metrics.
[0012] Hence, design and development of a non-invasive solution for diagnosing diabetes based on a subject's breath profile and breath analytes, providing a more convenient and effective diagnostic method along with the other physiological sensing e.g sensing pulse parameters, with high reliability is presented by the invention. The present disclosure discloses a health-monitoring wearable device and method for detection and personalized insights. The device provides real-time, continuous monitoring of various health parameters allowing for more accurate and up-to-date health data compared to periodic measurements.
[0013] The present invention overcomes the limitations of the prior arts (such as Lumen Metabolic Tracker) and offers several advantages:
• It utilizes non-invasive optical sensors and a breath sensor capable of detecting CO₂, acetone and other parameters to assess metabolism. This approach provides continuous or multi-sensing tracking of metabolic, respiratory and cardiovascular parameters. The device is specifically meant to capture the breath sample from nose while natural tidal breathing. The device is specifically meant to be built with one or more breath sensors as per requirement to capture the profile of one or more parameters from breath samples of natural tidal breathing.
• It captures multiple parameters such as heart rate, heart rate variability, breath rate, skin temperature, breath CO2, breath temperature, breath humidity and other breath biomarkers, and motion artifacts, allowing for a holistic view of metabolic and overall health.
• It monitors natural breathing patterns, ensuring usability without requiring the user to perform controlled breathing.
• It employs advanced machine learning algorithms based on input from multiple sensors to derive various secondary physiological parameters and health metrics using primary sensed parameters, to provide personalized, real-time feedback and trend analysis across multiple metrics over time.
• It is designed for passive or minimal user input, with automated data collection, syncing, and calibration. Suitable for both continuous monitoring and spot-checks. It does not require any special modulated breathing method, spot measures also possible just in natural resting state.

[0046] Personalized recommendation system
The recommendation system in the wearable device is designed to provide personalized and evidence-based lifestyle recommendations to users based on their physiological data and preferences.
Working of the personalized recommendation system:
• Stage 1: Demographic Recommendation System (Minimal User Input)-
During the initial stage, when a user registers, they provide basic demographic information through a questionnaire. The system analyzes this information and predicts suitable tags or categories based on the user's profile. These tags are then matched with relevant content categories stored in the content banks. The system prioritizes and presents the most suitable content to the user to follow, ensuring a relevant and personalized experience for users from the start.
• Stage 2: Hybrid Model (Demographic and Content-Based)-
As the user interacts with the application and builds trust, the system seeks more input in an engaging way, such as through activities or quizzes. The algorithm observes the user's performance based on the parameters monitored in relation to choices in these activities. It also considers the user's content preferences and choices up to that point. By combining this information with the initial data, the system refines its ability to provide even more relevant content recommendations.
• Stage 3: Hybrid Model (Content-Based and Collaborative Filtering)-
In the final stage, the system primarily relies on content-based recommendations and collaborative filtering. Collaborative filtering involves identifying users with similar content preferences and suggesting content that one user has found beneficial to others with similar preferences. No new user input is required at this stage. The algorithm continuously observes the user's data, choices and adapts its recommendations accordingly. It monitors the user database for any changes and keeps learning from user interests and interactions.
