Abstract
Cardiovascular and respiratory diseases have emerged as the leading cause of global mortality over the past decade, encompassing conditions such as atrial fibrillation and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Consequently, continuous monitoring plays a crucial role in managing these conditions, as it enables early detection, improves patient survival rates, and alleviates the burden on emergency medical resources. Our research group has developed a wearable pocket-sized fully non-contact cardiorespiratory sensor that utilizes electromagnetic induction technology to measure dynamic changes in electrical conductivity resulting from cardiac contractions and pulmonary volume variations. This enables the continuous acquisition of eddy current damping response signals to achieve cardiorespiratory monitoring. In comparison to commercially available ECGs, PPG smartwatches, and respiratory sensors, our proposed pocket-sized sensor offers three major advantages: exceptional concealment, convenience, and comfort for health monitoring due to its pocket-sized and micro-structured design; simultaneous acquisition of two-dimensional cardiac and respiratory signals, facilitating comprehensive cardiorespiratory health monitoring; and the ability to adjust sensing depth through frequency modulation of the electromagnetic field, thus eliminating variations in physiological structures among subjects and achieving optimized sensing and personalized medical benefits.
