QSensy
Quick Heart Saver
Idea in Health Care
Introduction
Heart disease is the global leading cause of death, with heart attacks causing 85% of fatalities. Early detection is critical, and existing solutions don’t fully address this need. Our idea offers an easy-to-use and portable diagnostic device–especially valuable as heart disease mortality is expected to rise 20% by 2030, according to WHO.
Problem
Heart disease is the global leading cause of death, with heart attacks causing 85% of fatalities. Often, heart attacks also occur without warning, leaving patients vulnerable to severe complications or death if not treated promptly. This raises an urgent need for early detection of heart attacks. For emergency responders and healthcare providers, every minute matters, yet current diagnostic tools are either slow or inaccessible outside of hospitals. Our solution, Q-Sensy, is designed specifically for ambulances and emergency teams to monitor cardiac biomarkers in real-time.
Opportunity
Q-Sensy, is a user-friendly, portable diagnostic device designed for real-time detection of heart attacks, addressing the critical need for continuous heart health monitoring. Using novel bio-receptors and electrochemical sensors, and compact device Q-Sensy tracks cardiac biomarkers and sends real-time alerts via smartphone. Ideal for use in ambulances and emergency settings, Q-Sensy empowers first responders and healthcare providers with actionable data, enabling timely interventions that can reduce irreversible damage. By bringing advanced cardiac diagnostics out of the hospital and directly to patients, Q-Sensy offers a proactive approach to combating the high mortality of heart disease, especially silent heart attacks, providing a more accessible and life-saving solution and ensuring patients receive critical care as soon as they reach the hospital.
