Description

The company's technology uses motion sensors and gyroscopic technology to detect falls and alert loved ones and emergency medical services. The device also collects real-time diagnostic information to reduce emergency responder time, providing physicians with vital signs, medication information, and patient behavior statistics. With falls being the leading cause of death among those older than 65 years, and 40% of elderly falls being due to syncope, Symbiont Health's wearable is able to detect falls and accelerate rescue, saving lives. The company has also had success with intellectual property acquisitions, including an internet-connected pill box designed for Alzheimer's and dementia patients, which was purchased by a large elderly care community with hundreds of locations across the United States.
