Patent ID: 11284809

Abstract:
A method, system, apparatus, and/or device to determine a condition of a user based on a heartbeat waveform. The method, system, apparatus, and/or device may include: a miniaturized impedance sensor configured to take a measurement from a muscular-walled tube within a body part of a user, where the miniaturized impedance sensor includes a first set of miniaturized electrodes configured to generate a signal within the muscular-walled tube and a second set of miniaturized electrodes configured to measure the signal; and a processing device programmed to interrogate the muscular-walled tube via the miniaturized impedance sensor. The processing device may be configured to generate the signal by the first set of miniaturized electrodes; measure the signal by the second set of miniaturized electrodes; generate a heartbeat waveform; and determine a condition of the user based on the heartbeat waveform.
