B-Track

Globally, 90% of pandemic deaths occurred in countries with high levels of obesity. 75 studies show that, with COVID-19, people with obesity are 113% more likely to be hospitalized, 74% more likely to be admitted to the intensive care unit and 48% more likely to die. With B-Track, we streamline the monitoring of oxygen saturation, heart rate and respiratory rate, using an easy-to-use wearable that at the same time provides data for healthcare professionals to provide a timely diagnosis.

With B-Track we won first place in BioHack 2021, an international Biomedical Engineering hackathon, where we only had 24 hours to come up with an innovative solution for the problem we were given.
