Microchip Technology Telehealth/Medical Solutions address the increased need for medical IoT devices in the growing telehealth segment of the medical market. Through its focused Medical Products Group, Microchip has been supporting medical device designers for many years. Microchip supports all classes of medical devices without restrictions and has unmatched long-term support for its product. Microchip gives medical IoT device developers a broad range of products, demonstration design files, and experienced support to make their Medical IoT designs smart, connected, and secure.
Digital temperature measurement devices are found in new and exciting places. For example, the ability to measure temperature is now being integrated into many consumer products like connected fitness and medical activity trackers.
The Connected Thermometer Demonstration Board demonstrates the implementation of a Bluetooth®-connected digital thermometer using a PIC16F1519 microcontroller (MCU) and RN42 Bluetooth module. The PIC16F1519 is a cost-effective, eXtreme Low Power (XLP) 8-bit MCU that features an integrated capacitive touch sensing module.
The ability to measure heart rate and blood oxygen level is now being added to consumer products. These measurements can be taken using pulse oximeters that are intended for home medical use and by integrated wrist-worn fitness activity trackers.
A pulse oximeter is a device that uses a non-invasive method for measuring the oxygen saturation level of a person’s blood, as well as their heart rate. LEDs in our Pulse Oximeter Demonstration transmit two wavelengths of light through a finger to a photodetector. From this, the Pulse Oximeter Demonstration can measure changing absorbance at each of the two wavelengths, process, and then filter the data to determine the blood oxygen saturation level and heart rate.
Showing a real-world example of the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) and telehealth solutions, Microchip’s IoT Cloud Authenticated Pulse Oximeter board demonstrates the measurement, wireless connectivity and authentication of heart rate and blood oxygen data to the Google Cloud (this demo concept can easily be converted to another Cloud vendor’s solution).
Microchip’s connected, wearable ECG demonstration board can be used in the design of advanced fitness tracking devices and can also be designed into medical wearable remote patient monitoring and diagnostic systems. This demo measures complex ECG heart rate, computes other heart-related data, tracks patient movement, and connects over Bluetooth to smartphones, tablets or PCs for IoT capability.
A blood pressure meter, or sphygmomanometer, is a device that is used to measure blood pressure. The meter is used with an inflatable cuff for restricting blood flow and a pump to inflate the cuff. Digital blood pressure meters typically measure both systolic and diastolic pressures by an oscillometric detection method, using a piezoelectric pressure sensor.
