The wearable sensor in the Otsuka Digital Feedback Device is a body-worn sensor that consists of a single-use patch known as the D-Tect wearable sensor or D-Tect Patch. The D-Tect Patch collects physiological and behavioral metrics such as heart rate, activity, body angle, and time stamped patient-logged events, including events signaled by the co-incidence with, or co-ingestion with, the ingestible sensor accessory. Note: While the device includes automated heart rate (HR) measurement, it does not provide an ECG waveform recording for display or analysis. The device is not intended to diagnose heart-related conditions and does not include alarms. HR measurement is not intended to be used in alarm system. HR data may not be accurate for patients with pacemakers.
A battery-powered (conventional or physiologic), electronic component of a gastrointestinal telemetric monitoring system designed to be swallowed by a patient for the wireless signal transmission of one or more gastrointestinal parameters (i.e., pH, pressure, temperature) or events (e.g., gastrointestinal bleeding). The capsule contains a sensor(s) and the telemetric signals it produces are detected by an extracorporeal (e.g., patient-worn) receiver or transceiver; information is displayed by the receiver, or transmitted by the transceiver to a computer with software for display. The capsule is excreted from the gut. This is a single-use device.
