Wearable to track tremors

Shared by Ana Duarte on 2017-03-03 11:19

About the solution

Fawad, an electrical engineer, created this device because he belongs to a family with a history of tremor patients – both his uncles and his grandfather suffered from the disease. So the inventor knew how difficult it was to communicate progress to one’s doctor.

The Trequant works by tracking and analyzing tremor patterns to make it easier for patients to communicate critical information to their doctor, save data on the cloud, and get notifications when it’s time to take medication, by being connected to a mobile app.

The engineer started working for this device in 2014, having launched a Kickstarter campaign to help develop the product in 2016.

“Every time we visited the doctor, we could never properly explain to him what he wanted. There was always a gap as doctors wanted specific information and we could only give vague feedback. If the shaking had gone up, how much worse was it than the previous visit?”, Fawad explained.

    My husband was diagnosed of Parkinsons disease 2 years ago, when he was 59. He had a stooped posture, tremors, right arm does not move and also a pulsating feeling in his body. He was placed on Senemet for 8 months and then Siferol was introduced and replaced the Senemet, during this time span he was also diagnosed with dementia. He started having hallucinations, lost touch with reality. Suspecting it was the medication I took him off the Siferol (with the doctor’s knowledge)  him on PD natural herbal formula we ordered from TREE OF LIFE HEALTH CLINIC, his symptoms totally declined over a 3 weeks use of the TREE OF LIFE HEALTH Parkinson's disease natural herbal formula. He is now  almost 61 and doing very well, the disease is totally reversed!  (w w w. treeoflifeherbalclinic .com)
