Researchers at United Arab Emirates University have developed an innovative non-surgical blood flow monitoring technology using piezoelectric pressure sensors, offering a more cost-effective and accurate approach for detecting vital health conditions.
Scientists from United Arab Emirates University have created a new technology for non-surgical blood flow monitoring that utilizes piezoelectric pressure sensors. The system relies on materials that generate electric fields when exposed to mechanical stress, allowing for accurate measurements of blood flow velocity and viscosity.
The enhanced version of the technology provides greater precision and is suitable for both hospital and home use. It also delivers real-time data, which can aid in detecting conditions such as blood clots.
Professor Mahmoud Al Ahmad, the project supervisor, emphasized the goal of improving existing technologies to benefit patients and healthcare providers. Future plans include incorporating artificial intelligence to enhance the system's capabilities.
This innovation contributes to the UAE's vision of advancing local medical technology, reducing dependency on imports, and supporting the country's shift toward a knowledge-based economy.
