Innovative device aims to empower patients with chronic illnesses through real-time insights into blood flow to the head.
A Revolution in Blood Flow Tracking
At CES 2025, Lumia Health debuted its lightweight, ear-worn wearable, the world’s first to track blood flow to the head. Designed for individuals experiencing symptoms like dizziness, brain fog, fatigue, and fainting, the device provides unparalleled insights into blood flow dynamics to help users self-manage their conditions.
Key features include:
- Lightweight Design: Weighing under 1 gram, the device is smaller than Apple AirPods.
- Clinical Validation: Proven to correlate with gold-standard transcranial Doppler ultrasound (Pearson correlation: 0.91).
- Seamless Wearability: Tracks blood flow during daily activities without interference from movement.
Empowering Chronic Illness Patients
Beta testers have logged over 12 hours of daily wear and 40 minutes of app engagement, gaining insights into how lifestyle factors like hydration and posture impact symptoms. The device’s biofeedback empowers users to make meaningful adjustments to improve their quality of life.
Expanding Healthcare Potential
Lumia’s wearable taps into the ear’s shallow artery for high-quality arterial signals, opening doors for broader applications:
- Managing falls and fainting in older adults.
- Improving in-patient fluid management for conditions like sepsis and heart failure.
“Blood flow to the head is the missing vital sign for millions,” said CEO Daniel Lee. “Our technology has the potential to transform care for chronic illnesses and other costly healthcare challenges.”
High Demand and Future Plans
Currently sold out, Lumia wearables will be available again starting Feb. 4, with deliveries expected in March. Backed by $10.4 million in funding, Lumia Health plans to expand its impact with new partnerships and clinical applications.
