PulseLab: An Integrated and Expandable Toolbox for Pulse Wave Velocity-base Blood Pressure Estimation
Invention Summary:
Cuff-less blood pressure (BP) estimation methods have been long pursued as substitutions for the conventional BP measurement methods to facilitate continuous and automatic monitoring of BP. The PWV (pulse wave velocity)-BP models, describing the relationship between the PWV and the BP, have been derived and used in recent...

Drug Candidate for the Treatment of Dilated Cardiomyopathy
Invention Summary: Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is the most common cause of heart failure. About 5.7 million adults in the United States have heart failure, and approximately half million new cases are diagnosed annually. Patients with DCM can lead to arrhythmias, and about half of people who develop heart failure die within 5 years of diagnosis. Current...
