New all-in-one diagnostics device tracks 6 health measures

 

 

MANHATTAN BEACH, Calif. - By the end of August a new consumer diagnostics tool called BodiMetrics that tracks six health metrics plus a medication reminder will be available at Bloomingdales, the company announced recently. 

 

"It's being embraced by everybody in the consumer world," Neil Friedman, COO BodiMetrics, shared in a recent interview with CE Week TV. "What we've done is put everything together," he said. "It's an all-in-one device."

 

Supported by an app available on both the iOS and Android platforms, the metrics BodiMetrics track include an EKG, pulse rate, blood oxygination, systolic blood pressure and temperature. The device also serves as a pedometer. 

 

And by September, BodiMetrics hopes to have Food and Drug Administration approval for a device designed to enhance in-office, or in-clinic, diagnostics that includes a metric for sleep apnea.
