chance to be an entrepreneur in student
business. It excited me so much that I decided to
use the contacts I made there, through which I
encountered the CEO of Thunderbyte.AI.

Following are the excerpts from the interview:
Kindly tell us the source of inspiration. What led you to
venture into the health wearable Industry?
During my weight loss journey, I took up running and
climbing stairs. However, due to my lack of knowledge
about safe joint loading, I injured my knees at the young
age of 21 and was unable to walk for more than 10-15
minutes without severe pain in my hips and knees.
My struggle was compounded by the fact that my mother
had also suffered from osteoarthritis in both knees and had
undergone physiotherapy for years.
Despite these setbacks, I was determined to find a solution
to prevent others from experiencing the same physical pain.
That is when the idea for Fitknees was born. My mission
was to create technology that could analyze movements
during physical activity, providing insights and guidance on
safe, effective exercise. This was the key reason why I
chose wearables over other technology options like
computer vision and robotics.

Technology in Electrical and Electronic Engineering from
VIT Vellore. Throughout my studies, I developed a passion
for Product Design and Management through various
hackathons, college clubs, and projects. This led me to a
position as a Product Design Engineer at Ford Motors
Company, where I gained valuable experience in product

n an era characterized by rapid technological
Iadvancements, the field of healthcare is undergoing a
significant transformation.Traditional models of patient
care are evolving, giving way to innovative approaches that
bridge the gap between patients and doctors like never
before. This paradigm shift is not only changing the game
but also redefining the way healthcare is delivered and
experienced.
Let's understand path of redefining in healthcare in detail:
A New Era of Accessibility
Gone are the days when accessing medical expertise
required physical presence. The advent of telemedicine and
remote consultations has ushered in a new era of
accessibility in healthcare. Patients can now access their
healthcare providers in real-time, regardless of geographical
boundaries.This revolutionary change has dismantled the
barriers that often prevented timely medical advice,
especially for those residing in remote or underserved areas.
Virtual appointments have improved convenience and
drastically reduced wait times, making healthcare more
patient-centric than ever.
Empowerment through Information
One of the most significant advantages of this evolving
healthcare landscape is the empowerment it offers to
patients. In traditional settings, patients often had limited
access to their medical records, test results, and treatment
plans. With the digitalization of healthcare, individuals now
have the tools to access their health information, enabling
21
July 2023 www.insightscare.com
them to become active participants in their own care
journey. This empowerment fosters a sense of ownership
over one's health and encourages patients to make informed
decisions in consultation with their healthcare providers.
Data-Driven Decision Making
The advent of wearable devices and health apps has
transformed smartphones into personal health hubs. Patients
can now track their vitals, activity levels, sleep patterns, and
even chronic conditions in real-time. This wealth of data
opens new avenues for healthcare providers to make data-
driven decisions. Instead of relying solely on sporadic in-
person assessments, doctors can now analyze
comprehensive datasets to gain insights into a patient's
health trends and potential risks. This proactive approach
enhances the accuracy of diagnoses and paves the way for
personalized treatment plans tailored to individual needs.
Challenges and Opportunities
While the benefits of this patient-centric model are
undeniable, it comes with its share of challenges and
opportunities. Privacy and security of patient data remain
paramount, requiring robust cybersecurity measures to
safeguard sensitive health information. Additionally, the
digital divide could exacerbate healthcare disparities if not
addressed adequately. However, these challenges also
present opportunities for innovation. Ensuring data privacy
could lead to advancements in encryption and secure data
sharing technologies. Bridging the digital divide may drive
initiatives to enhance digital literacy, ensuring that no one is
left behind in this healthcare revolution.
Enhanced Doctor-Patient Collaboration
The evolving healthcare landscape is fostering a paradigm
shift in doctor-patient relationships. Instead of the
traditional authoritative model, where doctors held most of
the medical knowledge, there's now a shift towards
collaboration and shared decision-making. Patients with
reliable information can engage in meaningful discussions
with their healthcare providers, contributing to more
holistic treatment plans. Doctors, in turn, are embracing this
collaborative approach, recognizing patients as partners in
their healthcare journey rather than passive recipients of
care.
Telemonitoring and Chronic Disease Management
Chronic diseases pose a significant challenge to healthcare
systems globally. The evolution of remote monitoring is
offering a lifeline to patients grappling with conditions like
diabetes, hypertension, and heart disease. With the
integration of connected devices, patients can transmit their
health data to healthcare providers, enabling timely
interventions and adjustments to treatment plans.
Telemonitoring reduces the burden on hospitals and
empowers patients to take charge of their conditions by
fostering better self-management.
The Role of Artificial Intelligence
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a driving force behind the
emergence of healthcare. Machine Learning algorithms can
sift through vast amounts of patient data to identify patterns
and correlations that might elude human analysis. This not
only aids in accurate diagnosis but also supports predictive
analytics. AI-powered chatbots are also becoming valuable,
offering patients quick responses to their queries and
concerns, enhancing patient engagement and satisfaction.
Regulatory Framework and Ethical Considerations
As the healthcare landscape evolves, regulatory bodies
grapple with adapting regulations to encompass digital
health innovations. Balancing the need for innovation with
patient safety and data privacy is paramount. Ethical
considerations, too, remain crucial. The human touch in
healthcare, characterized by empathy and emotional
support, must not be compromised in pursuing
technological advancements. Striking this balance will be
pivotal in ensuring that patients receive cutting-edge care
and compassionate attention.
Conclusion
The journey of healthcare is on an irreversible trajectory
towards patient-centricity, enabled by technology's
relentless march forward. Telemedicine, remote monitoring,
and data-driven decision-making are not just trends; they're
powerful tools revolutionizing healthcare. As we navigate
this evolving landscape, it's crucial to uphold the values that
underpin the patient-doctor relationship while harnessing
the potential of technology to enhance care delivery. By
bridging the gap between patients and doctors, we're not
just changing the game but setting the stage for a healthier,
more connected future.

5 Best Health Wearable Service Providers for Healthy Lifestyle

Biostrap

Empowering Care and Patient Outcomes with
Clinically Reliable Remote Monitoring
he trend of wearable technology and digital health
Tis growing rapidly within the market. At present,
wearables are more likely to be purchased by
customers who want to lead a healthy lifestyle and quantify
their progress. And more often than not, they are finding it
to be a valuable tool in seeking the insights that they need
concerning their health.
Biostrap—a biosensor-based digital biomarker
platform—is one step ahead in providing customized digital
health solutions to meet consumer health needs. It offers the
first-of-its-kind configurable biometric monitoring platform
that comes with cloud processing, customizable,
professional and user interfaces, AI-driven insights, and
integration options.
While other wearables in general, discard the raw health
data to improve their calculation speed, impacting data
quality and integrity, Biostrap wearables save data, thus
enabling in-depth analysis of health biometrics using high-
resolution PPG measurements from within the skin, to
extract reliable biometrics. This gives the company a
competitive edge compared to others within the market.
In an interview with Insights Care, Sameer Sontakey, the
CEO & Founder shares the journey of Biostrap from being
the check engine light for individual health to enabling
unfiltered and reliable health insights for health-conscious
consumers.
Following are the excerpts from the interview:
Kindly tell us the source of inspiration. What led you to
venture into the health wearable Industry?
My source of inspiration for venturing into the health
wearable industry came from a personal experience of a
life-changing weight-loss journey. I was very unhappy with
myself, and I knew I had to change. About ten years ago,
for a year, I went on a low-carbohydrate diet and worked
out at midnight almost every day, because that's the only
time I had free time. While it may have been a crazy
schedule, in only a year, I went from 220 lbs to 150 lbs with
my waist size dropping from 44 to 28. The interesting part
is that it was more of a mental battle than a physical.
Setting my mind to it and staying motivated was the biggest
challenge. After my weight-loss journey, I've become
obsessed with health and how one can take better control of
their well-being.
Having been in the software engineering industry for ten
years at the time, I realized that my passion for wearables
and health could be interlinked and that I could create
something convenient and actionable, and provide clinical
data that is more meaningful to the consumer than other
wearable technology on the market. While I was burning
the midnight oil on the side of my day job, I was becoming
more confident that Biostrap did have potential in the
market. It was the time when my first daughter was born, so
it gave me that final push that I wanted to create something
for the future.
Not to mention, looking back, now I know that if I had a
Biostrap back then, I would have been able to make more
data-driven decisions and achieve that wellness goal even
faster by working smarter, not harder.
Brief us about yourself and shed some light on your role
and responsibility at the company.
I was born in Los Angeles and lived most of my life in
Southern California. I got my degree at a liberal arts school
in computer science, and that field has been my passion
ever since. Out of college, I was hired at a company
building gaming streaming platforms in the Bay area. It was
my first experience with a startup, so I had the opportunity

to have a close insight into how a business worked. After
two years, however, I changed course and moved to Los
Angeles, where I co-founded a marketing platform, called
Bridg, and worked on engineering and developing scalable
marketing tools. It was during that time that my health
started to earn a whole new meaning. That health
transformation I mentioned above completely changed the
way I viewed well-being.
I began developing Biostrap while still at Bridg, and then
upon my exit, I dedicated my entire life to growing
Biostrap, so we can democratize clinical-grade data and
empower people to own their health data and make more
informed decisions about their well-being. As the CEO and
Co-founder of Biostrap, my main role and responsibilities
encompass building strategic relationships to advance
digital health and remote monitoring, especially as we are
entering the clinical research and clinical care markets with
our latest medical-grade biosensor. Additionally, while
Biostrap has been fully privately funded, with the growth
that's ahead of us, we are currently raising capital to make
an even greater impact on healthcare and help improve how
value-based care is done today. Building relationships with
investors and representing Biostrap in such conversations,
presentations and opportunities is also a great responsibility
to have.
What are the mission, vision, and values shared by the
company?
Biostrap is on a mission to provide the world's most
advanced, high-resolution, biosensor-based digital
biomarker platform to improve global health. We are
building an ecosystem of partners to provide and use data to
gather insights on one's health which then can be utilized to
provide actionable information and enhance remote patient
monitoring processes.
At Biostrap, we envision a future where patients have
access to relevant and insightful data about their health and
where researchers have access to reliable and easy-to-
implement technology that helps them advance patient care
and develop new biomarkers that help create more
individualized treatments for patients with various health
conditions.
Our values revolve around always being curious to continue
to advance the solutions we offer, keeping in sight why we
started in the first place and staying true to that, and being
flexible in the sense that having the capability to adapt to
ever-changing market conditions and recognize new
opportunities as they arise.
Tell us about the core products and services that the
company offers to support the healthcare needs of the
patients. How are these different from other companies
in the market?
The core products Biostrap offers are a combination of
hardware and software solutions to address the limitations
of the healthcare industry. Through utilizing
photoplethysmography (PPG) and accelerometer data with
our current: EVO and soon-to-be available: Ethos device,
At Biostrap, we envision
a future where patients have access
to relevant and insightful data of their
health and where researchers have access
to reliable and easy-to-implement
technology that helps them advance
patient care and develop new biomarkers
that help create more individualized
treatments for patients with various
health conditions.

we can extract raw sensor data that is rich, unfiltered and
contain embedded novel digital biomarkers. Such raw PPG
data has extensive applications spanning a wide range of
healthcare sectors from the blood and respiratory system
and cardiology to paediatrics and neurology.
The big difference between Biostrap and other players in
the market is the high fidelity of the data that's captured.
Many wearables discard raw, unfiltered data for quick and
easy processing. Biostrap collects on average 1000 times
more data than other consumer wearables. By storing all
that raw data, it can be utilized to develop novel algorithms
in the clinical setting.
In our soon-launching device, Ethos, we are introducing a
first-to-market quadband technology that won't only
increase data integrity but has the potential to address
health inequity. With our multi-wavelength sensor
technology, our device will be able to uphold its clinically
reliable and accurate measurements regardless of skin
pigmentation. Additionally, we also have a pending FDA
510(k) clearance application regarding our SpO2
measurements. We have already completed the hypoxia
study at the Hypoxia Research Laboratory Department of
Anesthesia and Perioperative Care at the University of
California, San Francisco, where Ethos achieved an
accuracy of 2.7% root mean square error (RMSD).
Exceeding the FDA's requirement of 3.5% RMSD.
Turning to our software solution, we have developed a
cloud-based artificial intelligence and machine learning
system, called the Pulse Engine, that serves as a proprietary
cloud-based computational suite. It cleans, processes, and
analyzes raw PPG waveform data and currently obtains
more than 65 features and biometrics.
Brief us about the rising need for health wearables in
the modern era. How will it impact the way patients
perceive their health and personal wellness?
The evolution of digital health and wearable technology is
providing the opportunity for patients to have more data
about their health and well-being than ever. And, more
often than not, patients find it very valuable. It allows them
to be more hands-on with the course of their health, which
serves as a great motivator to maintain healthy habits and
improve treatment adherence.
When I developed Biostrap, I wanted to create what I call a
"check engine light for your health." What I mean by that is
that data from wearables today have the power to raise a
flag about a health concern before it was to become serious.
That's exactly what we had in mind when we launched our
Early Warning System during the pandemic. With our
measured biometrics and AI interpretations, Biostrap can
detect signs of a respiratory illness before the onset of
symptoms, which could call for early intervention and
hence a more data-driven recovery.
The healthcare system as it is today is still highly reactive.
Most patients don't seek out their primary care physician
unless they already experience symptoms. Wearable data
and advanced AI analytics have the potential to shift that to
a more proactive approach. Through analyzing raw PPG
data, we have recognized that biometrics change much
sooner than health exacerbations occur, and seeing that
slight change away from one's baseline, individuals can
notice early signs of a given health issue. Take it a step
further, this can be the next level in remote patient
monitoring when physicians would be notified when their
patients' data shows a significant change to a negative
direction.
What specific R&D operations is your company leading
at present? Why do you find them essential in
developing or improving healthcare solutions?
Traditional measures in healthcare today are episodic,
spare, often self-reported and subjective. Through merely
27
July 2023 www.insightscare.com
occasional visits to the primary care physician, it is difficult
to gain a complete understanding of a patient's health. Such
visits lack real-world insights, for example, the daily burden
of symptoms, or any subtle shifts to the quality of life. They
also only provide surface-level data as opposed to rich,
multi-dimensional and longitudinal data sets.
In our R&D efforts, we wanted to solve those issues by
providing continuous 24/7 real-time monitoring of medical-
grade objective measurements of rich, unfiltered raw sensor
data. All that through passive and convenient monitoring in
a real-world setting at the patient's home. We gather,
process and analyze that data in our Pulse Engine and
provide it to physicians and researchers through a secure,
HIPAA-compliant web dashboard. Data security is of the
utmost importance to us, and no patient's data is ever being
shared without their consent. Additionally, Biostrap never
sells patient data to third parties.
What endeavors is the company currently pursuing to
improve its service measures for the clients?
We think of our clients more like partners. We don't want to
just be a vendor, but rather go beyond providing just
hardware and software. We provide solutions so that our
partners can be successful. We listen to their feedback and
opinions to continuously advance our solutions. Some of
the features we've built into the platform were because one
of our partners requested them.
What advice would you like to give to budding
entrepreneurs and enthusiasts who desire to venture
into the health wearable Industry?
It's true when they say hardware is hard. It takes twice as
long and costs three times more than you think. If possible,
do some due diligence on what exists already on the market
and see if it meets your needs first. We decided to go down
the route of making our wearable because nothing was
available on the market that would give us access to the
high-resolution raw sensor data to develop the next
generation of digital biomarkers.
Unlike software, you cannot iterate on hardware quickly.
This means it's really important to get your hardware right
before you launch. Try to get as much right the first time,
but always be ready to pivot if necessary. We made some
hard decisions where we had to push our launch of Ethos
and completely redo our optomechanics because the data
quality of the signals was not up to our standards, so we
pushed our launch back six months. In our case, we are
creating something that is to impact the decisions people
are making about their health or the health of their patients,
so it was a non-negotiable that data accuracy had to be
perfect.
How do you envision scaling the company's services and
operations in 2023 and beyond?
We are now entering the clinical research and clinical care
markets with our latest medical-grade biosensor, Ethos. We
see that lines between consumer and medical are blurring
quickly and users are expecting a much more patient-centric
experience. Furthermore, remote patient monitoring is
growing rapidly at 30% CAGR and the need for monitoring
devices is only going to grow. We are positioning ourselves
as a leader in that category.
Please mention client testimonials or recognitions that
your company may have attained along its journey to
success.
Saranya Veluswamy, MD, a haematologist at Children
Hospital Los Angeles and Assistant Professor of Clinical
Pediatrics at the Keck School of Medicine of USC said the
following in response to selecting Biostrap for their
research in developing a new biomarker for sickle cell
disease utilizing raw PPG. "We needed something patients
could wear outside of the hospital while having access to
the raw blood flow data that we can download, run our
algorithm on and derive the parameter that we think is
going to be predictive of pain."
The research team at CHLA is working to develop blood
flow response as a biomarker to be able to determine how
bad Sickle Cell Anemia is going to be, or ideally, even
predict that pain might be coming on, so they can do
something to stop that pain crisis and proactively manage
its severity.
"We decided to partner with Biostrap because we believe in
the standard Biostrap sets with regards to accuracy. For
HealthQb, it was critical piece for us to have a scientifically
valid wearable device when it comes to HRV in particular
because of how sensitive of a metric that is. We have to
make sure that it's measured accurately." - Greg Elliott, Co-
Founder of HealthQb Technologies

5 Best Health Wearable Service Providers for Healthy Lifestyle
KOMODO
Technologies
Making Health Data Reliable, Accessible, and
Cost-Effective for an Average Customer
ealth is wealth and every aspect of health must be
Htaken care of with utmost attention to detail. Best
Health Wearable Service Providers offer the right
technologies that enable a Healthy Lifestyle through the
collection of intelligent data, that help in keeping track of
day-to-day health practices and making the right decisions
about your health. To attain excellence in this regard,
require the intervention of boutique data science
consultancies that use machine learning and advanced
analytics to obtain rich data, and create new value from
existing data such as is done at KOMODO Technologies.
As you know, it is no secret that consumers are growing
more health-conscious by the day. They are interested in
learning about the relationship of basic things such as their
choice of food, number of steps taken, calories consumed,
or sleep cycle with their physical and emotional well-being.
In order to collect the right amount of data, and process
them accurately to obtain the most effective results, they are
adopting the idea of innovative tools such as wearable
technologies, one of which is The AIO Smart Sleeve by
KOMODO.
Wearable tech has been considered number 1 out of the top
20 worldwide fitness trends in 2019 and it continues to
uphold that position. However, despite its growing reliance,
they operate on limited themes such as motivation,
accountability, and discretion. This makes one
question—"How effective is it in determining individual
health status?" Being unsure about the reliability of
wearable tech, the medical community, on the other hand,
often goes back to their traditional high-end technology
such as blood pressure monitor and glucose monitors to
identify and discuss symptoms; despite the fact that the
traditional tools have proven to be dependable over the
years, these medical grade devices are—not only complex
to use—but they also cost a fortune for various customers
who seek high-level, more accurate and real-time detailed
health data.
KOMODO Technologies aims to bridge the gap between
affordability and reliability of health monitoring tech to
improve customer satisfaction. Thus, the company offers a
smart wearable compression sleeve that pairs (via
Bluetooth) with a smartphone app. Unlike the traditional
wearable tech that come equipped with low-quality optical
sensors BPM that may not provide accurate information on
the users' heart health, the all-in-one (AIO) smart sleeve
comprises a personal EKG monitor that captures electric
signals and activity of the users' heart rate variability
(HRV). This way, they can detect stress levels, daily
readiness, body recovery, body resiliency, internal health,
and other related.
Ensuring that the health devices should be made available
to all, Elvis Goren, the Co-Founder and Vice President,
has taken a 360-degree approach in developing the AIO
smart sleeve. Whether the user is a doctor, clinic, sports
team, coach, or patient, they get the best EKG monitor, app,
and health dashboard. Some of the areas that the technology
interacts with are as follows:
· Activity Intensity
· Food Sensitivity
· EKG/ECG
· Sleep Analysis
· Stress Level
· SPO2
32

· Alcohol Reactivity
· Heart Rate Variability (HRV)
· Recovery
Let's learn more about KOMODO's smart technology that
makes it the best wearable tech in the consumer market.
Venturing into the Health Wearable Industry
KOMODO Technology's Co-Founder and Vice-President,
Elvis comes from a family who immigrated to Canada
when he was ten years old, in pursuit of a better life.
Growing up, what led Elvis to venture into the health
wearable industry was a combination of his two big
passions that developed in his early 20s. The first one is his
love of sports (primarily basketball, and hockey), physical
activity and human optimization. And the second is his
fascination with consumer technology.
At that time, wearable tech was very primitive and
sometimes ineffective. There were amazing health tech
tools out there but none were available in the consumer
market. Thus, Elvis and his team wanted to change that and
bring effective health monitoring to the
average customers at a reasonable price.
In addition, Elvis also considers that his
source of inspiration was Allen Iverson. He
says, "The former 76ers star was one of the
first to sport an arm compression sleeve on
the court. As compression clothing became
more ubiquitous in the active world, and me
being a fan myself, it only made sense to
create the AIO Smart Sleeve." Since then,
he believes that it is his job to promote the
brilliant inventions of his team, to the world
out there.
Mission, Vision, and Values Aligned to
Cost-Effective Health Data
KOMODO's mission, vision, and values are
aligned with the belief that health devices
shouldn't cost a fortune. For instance, the
American healthcare system is built to keep
control in the hands of providers. And they
are incentivised to keep patients coming
back. But at the end of the day, healthy people don't make
anyone money.
Thus, the company is aiming to democratize health by
providing state-of-art health products to everyday people.
This specifically means the products' ease of use, friendly
interface, and cost-effective features enable the customers.

KOMODO's Smart Product Comes with a Competitive
Edge
KOMODO offers a smart wearable compression sleeve that
pairs (via Bluetooth) to a smartphone app. The All-in-One
(AIO) Smart Sleeve can monitor various important
biomarkers: heart rate, ECG / EKG, heart rate variability,
sleep analysis, activity intensity (MET), stress levels, and
more. All data captured by the sleeve is immediately visible
on the smartphone app. For trainers, clinics, researchers,
employers, etc., the company has an online dashboard
where all the data is securely transferred, so an admin can
view multiple users on one screen.
This smart wearable sleeve is different unlike the market
which is split into two tiers:
Ÿ Motivational devices that offer little in terms of health
data (step trackers, etc), and
Ÿ High-end (medical grade) devices that cost a fortune,
with insurance reimbursable and come with a monthly
fee.
In this regard, KOMODO is the best solution for
individuals to not only seek high-level health data at all
times but also at a reasonable price.
34
July 2023 www.insightscare.com
Consumers Have Control Over Their Health
People are becoming wiser and are beginning to take their
health into their own hands. With KOMODO's modern
tools like heart rate variability (HRV), users have a way to
gain incredible insight into their internal health daily. Daily
tracking gives them a much better indication of your overall
health as compared to monthly or quarterly doctor visits.
Incorporating AI Function and Heart Rate Variability
KOMODO is constantly working on its AI function and is
extracting more and more health data from the HRV to
improve the user experience. For instance, depending on the
user, HRV can detect if he or she has any particular food
sensitivities, effects of alcohol and drugs on the body, and
physical and mental stress levels.
Yearly improvements in KOMODO's technology enable the
team to build a more sophisticated health analytics system
that gives its users better information on their internal
health.
Ensuring a Reliable Service to the Customer
From the beginning, KOMODO's incredibly talented IT
team has built the backend for data storage. Thus, the
company doesn't have to rely on services like Amazon.
It holds customer safety and security in high regard. "We
are constantly improving our infrastructure to ensure data is
encrypted and completely independent from the big tech
grid," adds Elvis.
The Importance of Following Personal Values
The budding enthusiasts who desire to venture into the
health wearable industry, Elvis advises, "Don't worry about
the product being perfect in the beginning. If your concept
is good, people will see its value and believe it. Then
perfect it along the way. This is how Apple was born."
Looking Ahead in 2023
KOMODO is currently involved in developing a corporate
wellness solution that will be focused on health biometrics.
It is working on equipping police departments, first
responders, firefighters, and the military with health
diagnostics to reduce harm and casualties. It is also
equipping companies with the tool to monitor their most
important input: human capital.

Learning
Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) are
critical in shaping the future of remote healthcare
monitoring. These technologies can potentially analyze
numerous patient data, identify patterns, and provide
effective insights to both patients and healthcare providers.
For instance, AI algorithms can predict disease progression
based on historical data, enabling doctors to customize
treatment plans accordingly. Moreover, AI-powered
chatbots can offer real-time assistance to patients,
answering their medical queries and providing guidance on
managing their conditions.
The Role of Remote Monitoring in Chronic Disease
Management
Chronic diseases such as diabetes, hypertension, and heart
disease require continuous monitoring and management.
Remote healthcare monitoring is proving to be a game-
changer in this arena. Patients can use wearable devices to
track their vital signs and share the data with their
healthcare providers, enabling timely adjustments to
medications and lifestyle recommendations. This real-time
feedback loop empowers patients to take control of their
health and manage their conditions effectively, ultimately
leading to a better quality of life and reduced healthcare
costs.
Ethical Considerations and Human Touch
As technology advances, there is an ongoing debate about
the potential loss of the human touch in healthcare. While
remote monitoring offers convenience and efficiency, it
should not replace the essential aspects of patient-doctor
relationships. Ethical considerations around maintaining
empathy, compassion, and effective communication in a
remote setting are paramount. The future of remote
healthcare monitoring must balance technological
innovation and the fundamental human connection integral
to healthcare.
Regulatory Framework and Adoption Challenges
A robust regulatory framework is essential for the future of
remote healthcare monitoring to reach its full potential.
Governments and regulatory bodies need to establish
guidelines for developing, deploying, and using remote
monitoring technologies. Moreover, addressing barriers to
adoption, such as technological literacy among older
populations and disparities in access to devices and internet
connectivity, is crucial for ensuring that the benefits of
remote monitoring are accessible to all segments of society.
Conclusion
The future of remote healthcare monitoring is undeniably
promising, with its potential to transform healthcare into a
more personalized, proactive, and accessible endeavor. The
healthcare landscape is evolving rapidly, from empowering
patients through continuous monitoring to leveraging AI
and ML for data analysis. However, this transformation has
challenges, including data security concerns, ethical
considerations, and regulatory hurdles. As we navigate this
new frontier, striking a balance between technological

This gives the company a competitive edge compared to others within the market. In an interview with Insights Care, Sameer Sontakey, the CEO & Founder shares the journey of Biostrap from being the check engine light for individual health to enabling unfiltered and reliable health insights for health-conscious consumers. Following are the excerpts from the interview: Kindly tell us the source of inspiration. What led you to venture into the health wearable Industry? My source of inspiration for venturing into the health wearable industry came from a personal experience of a life-changing weight-loss journey. I was very unhappy with myself, and I knew I had to change. About ten years ago, for a year, I went on a low-carbohydrate diet and worked out at midnight almost every day, because that's the only time I had free time. While it may have been a crazy schedule, in only a year, I went from 220 lbs to 150 lbs with my waist size dropping from 44 to 28. The interesting part is that it was more of a mental battle than a physical. Setting my mind to it and staying motivated was the biggest challenge. After my weight-loss journey, I've become obsessed with health and how one can take better control of their well-being. Having been in the software engineering industry for ten years at the time, I realized that my passion for wearables and health could be interlinked and that I could create something convenient and actionable, and provide clinical data that is more meaningful to the consumer than other wearable technology on the market. While I was burning the midnight oil on the side of my day job, I was becoming more confident that Biostrap did have potential in the market. It was the time when my first daughter was born, so it gave me that final push that I wanted to create something for the future. Not to mention, looking back, now I know that if I had a Biostrap back then, I would have been able to make more data-driven decisions and achieve that wellness goal even faster by working smarter, not harder. Brief us about yourself and shed some light on your role and responsibility at the company. I was born in Los Angeles and lived most of my life in Southern California. I got my degree at a liberal arts school in computer science, and that field has been my passion ever since. Out of college, I was hired at a company building gaming streaming platforms in the Bay area. It was my first experience with a startup, so I had the opportunity 5 Best Health Wearable Service Providers for Healthy Lifestyle 25 July 2023 www.insightscare.com

After two years, however, I changed course and moved to Los Angeles, where I co-founded a marketing platform, called Bridg, and worked on engineering and developing scalable marketing tools. It was during that time that my health started to earn a whole new meaning. That health transformation I mentioned above completely changed the way I viewed well-being. I began developing Biostrap while still at Bridg, and then upon my exit, I dedicated my entire life to growing Biostrap, so we can democratize clinical-grade data and empower people to own their health data and make more informed decisions about their well-being. As the CEO and Co-founder of Biostrap, my main role and responsibilities encompass building strategic relationships to advance digital health and remote monitoring, especially as we are entering the clinical research and clinical care markets with our latest medical-grade biosensor. Additionally, while Biostrap has been fully privately funded, with the growth that's ahead of us, we are currently raising capital to make an even greater impact on healthcare and help improve how value-based care is done today. Building relationships with investors and representing Biostrap in such conversations, presentations and opportunities is also a great responsibility to have. What are the mission, vision, and values shared by the company? Biostrap is on a mission to provide the world's most advanced, high-resolution, biosensor-based digital biomarker platform to improve global health. We are building an ecosystem of partners to provide and use data to gather insights on one's health which then can be utilized to provide actionable information and enhance remote patient monitoring processes.

Such raw PPG data has extensive applications spanning a wide range of healthcare sectors from the blood and respiratory system and cardiology to paediatrics and neurology. The big difference between Biostrap and other players in the market is the high fidelity of the data that's captured. Many wearables discard raw, unfiltered data for quick and easy processing. Biostrap collects on average 1000 times more data than other consumer wearables. By storing all that raw data, it can be utilized to develop novel algorithms in the clinical setting. In our soon-launching device, Ethos, we are introducing a first-to-market quadband technology that won't only increase data integrity but has the potential to address health inequity. With our multi-wavelength sensor technology, our device will be able to uphold its clinically reliable and accurate measurements regardless of skin pigmentation. Additionally, we also have a pending FDA 510(k) clearance application regarding our SpO2 measurements. We have already completed the hypoxia study at the Hypoxia Research Laboratory Department of Anesthesia and Perioperative Care at the University of California, San Francisco, where Ethos achieved an accuracy of 2.7% root mean square error (RMSD). Exceeding the FDA's requirement of 3.5% RMSD. Turning to our software solution, we have developed a cloud-based artificial intelligence and machine learning system, called the Pulse Engine, that serves as a proprietary cloud-based computational suite. It cleans, processes, and analyzes raw PPG waveform data and currently obtains more than 65 features and biometrics. Brief us about the rising need for health wearables in the modern era. How will it impact the way patients perceive their health and personal wellness? The evolution of digital health and wearable technology is providing the opportunity for patients to have more data about their health and well-being than ever. And, more often than not, patients find it very valuable. It allows them to be more hands-on with the course of their health, which serves as a great motivator to maintain healthy habits and improve treatment adherence. When I developed Biostrap, I wanted to create what I call a "check engine light for your health." What I mean by that is that data from wearables today have the power to raise a flag about a health concern before it was to become serious. That's exactly what we had in mind when we launched our Early Warning System during the pandemic. With our measured biometrics and AI interpretations, Biostrap can detect signs of a respiratory illness before the onset of symptoms, which could call for early intervention and hence a more data-driven recovery. The healthcare system as it is today is still highly reactive. Most patients don't seek out their primary care physician unless they already experience symptoms. Wearable data and advanced AI analytics have the potential to shift that to a more proactive approach. Through analyzing raw PPG data, we have recognized that biometrics change much sooner than health exacerbations occur, and seeing that slight change away from one's baseline, individuals can notice early signs of a given health issue. Take it a step further, this can be the next level in remote patient monitoring when physicians would be notified when their patients' data shows a significant change to a negative direction. What specific R&D operations is your company leading at present? Why do you find them essential in developing or improving healthcare solutions? Traditional measures in healthcare today are episodic, spare, often self-reported and subjective. Through merely 27 July 2023 www.insightscare.com

Such visits lack real-world insights, for example, the daily burden of symptoms, or any subtle shifts to the quality of life. They also only provide surface-level data as opposed to rich, multi-dimensional and longitudinal data sets. In our R&D efforts, we wanted to solve those issues by providing continuous 24/7 real-time monitoring of medical- grade objective measurements of rich, unfiltered raw sensor data. All that through passive and convenient monitoring in a real-world setting at the patient's home. We gather, process and analyze that data in our Pulse Engine and provide it to physicians and researchers through a secure, HIPAA-compliant web dashboard. Data security is of the utmost importance to us, and no patient's data is ever being shared without their consent. Additionally, Biostrap never sells patient data to third parties. What endeavors is the company currently pursuing to improve its service measures for the clients? We think of our clients more like partners. We don't want to just be a vendor, but rather go beyond providing just hardware and software. We provide solutions so that our partners can be successful. We listen to their feedback and opinions to continuously advance our solutions. Some of the features we've built into the platform were because one of our partners requested them. What advice would you like to give to budding entrepreneurs and enthusiasts who desire to venture into the health wearable Industry? It's true when they say hardware is hard. It takes twice as long and costs three times more than you think. If possible, do some due diligence on what exists already on the market and see if it meets your needs first. We decided to go down the route of making our wearable because nothing was available on the market that would give us access to the high-resolution raw sensor data to develop the next generation of digital biomarkers. Unlike software, you cannot iterate on hardware quickly. This means it's really important to get your hardware right before you launch. Try to get as much right the first time, but always be ready to pivot if necessary. We made some hard decisions where we had to push our launch of Ethos and completely redo our optomechanics because the data quality of the signals was not up to our standards, so we pushed our launch back six months. In our case, we are creating something that is to impact the decisions people are making about their health or the health of their patients, so it was a non-negotiable that data accuracy had to be perfect. How do you envision scaling the company's services and operations in 2023 and beyond? We are now entering the clinical research and clinical care markets with our latest medical-grade biosensor, Ethos. We see that lines between consumer and medical are blurring quickly and users are expecting a much more patient-centric experience. Furthermore, remote patient monitoring is growing rapidly at 30% CAGR and the need for monitoring devices is only going to grow. We are positioning ourselves as a leader in that category. Please mention client testimonials or recognitions that your company may have attained along its journey to success. Saranya Veluswamy, MD, a haematologist at Children Hospital Los Angeles and Assistant Professor of Clinical Pediatrics at the Keck School of Medicine of USC said the following in response to selecting Biostrap for their research in developing a new biomarker for sickle cell disease utilizing raw PPG. "We needed something patients could wear outside of the hospital while having access to the raw blood flow data that we can download, run our algorithm on and derive the parameter that we think is going to be predictive of pain." The research team at CHLA is working to develop blood flow response as a biomarker to be able to determine how bad Sickle Cell Anemia is going to be, or ideally, even predict that pain might be coming on, so they can do something to stop that pain crisis and proactively manage its severity. "We decided to partner with Biostrap because we believe in the standard Biostrap sets with regards to accuracy. For HealthQb, it was critical piece for us to have a scientifically valid wearable device when it comes to HRV in particular because of how sensitive of a metric that is. We have to make sure that it's measured accurately." - Greg Elliott, Co- Founder of HealthQb Technologies 28 July 2023 www.insightscare.com

As you know, it is no secret that consumers are growing more health-conscious by the day. They are interested in learning about the relationship of basic things such as their choice of food, number of steps taken, calories consumed, or sleep cycle with their physical and emotional well-being. In order to collect the right amount of data, and process them accurately to obtain the most effective results, they are adopting the idea of innovative tools such as wearable technologies, one of which is The AIO Smart Sleeve by KOMODO. Wearable tech has been considered number 1 out of the top 20 worldwide fitness trends in 2019 and it continues to uphold that position. However, despite its growing reliance, they operate on limited themes such as motivation, accountability, and discretion. This makes one question—"How effective is it in determining individual health status?" Being unsure about the reliability of wearable tech, the medical community, on the other hand, often goes back to their traditional high-end technology such as blood pressure monitor and glucose monitors to identify and discuss symptoms; despite the fact that the traditional tools have proven to be dependable over the years, these medical grade devices are—not only complex to use—but they also cost a fortune for various customers who seek high-level, more accurate and real-time detailed health data. KOMODO Technologies aims to bridge the gap between affordability and reliability of health monitoring tech to improve customer satisfaction. Thus, the company offers a smart wearable compression sleeve that pairs (via Bluetooth) with a smartphone app. Unlike the traditional wearable tech that come equipped with low-quality optical sensors BPM that may not provide accurate information on the users' heart health, the all-in-one (AIO) smart sleeve comprises a personal EKG monitor that captures electric signals and activity of the users' heart rate variability (HRV). This way, they can detect stress levels, daily readiness, body recovery, body resiliency, internal health, and other related. Ensuring that the health devices should be made available to all, Elvis Goren, the Co-Founder and Vice President, has taken a 360-degree approach in developing the AIO smart sleeve. Whether the user is a doctor, clinic, sports team, coach, or patient, they get the best EKG monitor, app, and health dashboard.

Venturing into the Health Wearable Industry KOMODO Technology's Co-Founder and Vice-President, Elvis comes from a family who immigrated to Canada when he was ten years old, in pursuit of a better life. Growing up, what led Elvis to venture into the health wearable industry was a combination of his two big passions that developed in his early 20s. The first one is his love of sports (primarily basketball, and hockey), physical activity and human optimization. And the second is his fascination with consumer technology. At that time, wearable tech was very primitive and sometimes ineffective. There were amazing health tech tools out there but none were available in the consumer market. Thus, Elvis and his team wanted to change that and bring effective health monitoring to the average customers at a reasonable price. In addition, Elvis also considers that his source of inspiration was Allen Iverson. He says, "The former 76ers star was one of the first to sport an arm compression sleeve on the court. As compression clothing became more ubiquitous in the active world, and me being a fan myself, it only made sense to create the AIO Smart Sleeve." Since then, he believes that it is his job to promote the brilliant inventions of his team, to the world out there. Mission, Vision, and Values Aligned to Cost-Effective Health Data KOMODO's mission, vision, and values are aligned with the belief that health devices shouldn't cost a fortune. For instance, the American healthcare system is built to keep control in the hands of providers. And they are incentivised to keep patients coming back. But at the end of the day, healthy people don't make anyone money. Thus, the company is aiming to democratize health by providing state-of-art health products to everyday people.

For instance, AI algorithms can predict disease progression based on historical data, enabling doctors to customize treatment plans accordingly. Moreover, AI-powered chatbots can offer real-time assistance to patients, answering their medical queries and providing guidance on managing their conditions. The Role of Remote Monitoring in Chronic Disease Management Chronic diseases such as diabetes, hypertension, and heart disease require continuous monitoring and management. Remote healthcare monitoring is proving to be a game- changer in this arena. Patients can use wearable devices to track their vital signs and share the data with their healthcare providers, enabling timely adjustments to medications and lifestyle recommendations. This real-time feedback loop empowers patients to take control of their health and manage their conditions effectively, ultimately leading to a better quality of life and reduced healthcare costs. Ethical Considerations and Human Touch As technology advances, there is an ongoing debate about the potential loss of the human touch in healthcare. While remote monitoring offers convenience and efficiency, it should not replace the essential aspects of patient-doctor relationships. Ethical considerations around maintaining empathy, compassion, and effective communication in a remote setting are paramount. The future of remote healthcare monitoring must balance technological innovation and the fundamental human connection integral to healthcare.
