Till now mobile was called the companion of your loneliness, but in the coming times this smartphone can be the closest friend of your heart. Hey, don't be surprised at all! Because in the coming time it can be absolutely possible. Mobile phones were invented 50 years ago and since then they have come a long way. According to a BBC Future report, soon mobile phones will be able to tell about the signs of heart disease.
On most occasions, blood clots are the cause of heart diseases. If blood clots are not formed in the body, then you are at risk of hemorrhaging, in which you may die due to excessive bleeding. On the other hand, if these blood clots start forming more then you may have a heart attack. Doctors can do blood clotting tests, but for this they will need a syringe of blood from your body.
Smartphone will take care of the heart
According to the report, this week a person made the first such mobile without screen and button, in which he assured that cell phone can be a better tool to monitor our health. In March 2022, scientists of Washington University Used an iPhone to find out about clotting in the drop. For this work, he used the light detecting and ranging sensor of the phone. It is the technology that allows your device to take accurate measurements of objects or distances.
Research continues
Other researchers are developing techniques that would use the camera in your phone to measure blood pressure. Researchers from the University of Toronto, Canada, and Hangzhou Normal University in Zhejiang, China, have developed algorithms that can infer changes in facial blood circulation from self-shot videos using front-facing cameras on smartphones. It is expected that the smartphone could be a cheap and portable way to detect heart conditions.
Cardiologist Jennifer Miller at Children's Hospital in Los Angeles and engineers at the University of Southern California have created a prototype handheld ultrasound scanner that can connect to a smartphone to create echocardiograms. This can give information about blood flow through the heart.
