Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome; Other names: Reversible posterior leukoencephalopathy syndrome (RPLS) Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome visible on magnetic resonance imaging as multiple cortico-subcortical areas of T2-weighted hyperintense (white) signal involving the occipital and parietal lobes bilaterally and pons.
The app gathers data on exertion levels, symptom severity, and heart-rate variability. HRV is approximated using a smartphone's camera via a technique called photoplethysmography, and according to the app's developers, can indicate how much someone needs rest. [1] [4] [3] The app is currently free, but is expected to be freemium in the
AliveCor is a medical device and AI company that develops ECG hardware and software compatible with consumer mobile devices to enable remote heart rhythm monitoring and detection of abnormal heart rhythms, or arrhythmias. [4] [5] AliveCor was founded in 2011 and is headquartered in Mountain View, California, the United States.
Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) is a rare clinical disease characterized by cerebral edema. [12] The exact pathophysiology , or cause, of the syndrome is still debated but is hypothesized to be related to the disruption of the blood-brain barrier. [ 12 ]
The BodyGuardian system is to be used by doctors to track non-lethal arrhythmia or irregular heartbeats in ambulatory patients. The monitors are paired with a dedicated cell phone that allows doctors to check on a patient's heart rate at any time through a secure web site on their computers or via their iPad tablets. [3] [4]
CardiacSense Ltd., a digital health company that developed the world’s most advanced, medically certified wearable device for monitoring vital signs, announced receipt of U.S.A. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) clearance of its CSF-3 watch for measuring Electrocardiogram (ECG), Beat-by-beat Heart Rate, and Oxygen Saturation of Arterial Hemoglobin (SpO 2).
Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome has a similar presentation, and is found in 10–38% of RCVS patients. [1] RCVS is diagnosed by detecting diffuse reversible cerebral vasoconstriction. [1] Catheter angiography is ideal, but computed tomography angiography and magnetic resonance angiography can identify about 70% of cases. [1]
Hypertensive encephalopathy (HE) is general brain dysfunction due to significantly high blood pressure. [3] Symptoms may include headache, vomiting, trouble with balance, and confusion. [1] Onset is generally sudden. [1] Complications can include seizures, posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome, and bleeding in the back of the eye. [1] [3]
