Patent Granted to MindMics, Inc. for Groundbreaking Cardiovascular Monitoring via Infrasound Technology in Everyday Headphones

CAMBRIDGE, MA / ACCESSWIRE / January 29, 2024 / MindMics, Inc., a leader in health technology innovation, is proud to announce the issuance of its latest patent, US11844618B2, titled "System and Method for Cardiovascular Monitoring and Reporting." This patent marks a significant leap in the field of cardiovascular health, offering a novel, non-invasive approach to disease monitoring and management.

The US11844618B2 patent unveils an advanced cardiovascular monitoring system that ingeniously incorporates acoustic sensors from noise-canceling earbuds. By integrating these sensors with sophisticated machine learning and AI algorithms, the system facilitates continuous, non-invasive monitoring of heart functions. The earbud sensors detect essential biosignals, enabling accurate analysis and prediction of blood pressure and other crucial cardiovascular indicators.

Anna Barnacka, Ph.D., CEO of MindMics and a primary inventor, emphasizes the patent’s significance: "This patent is more than an innovation; it’s a commitment to a healthier future. Our vision extends beyond this invention, aiming to develop adaptable algorithms and software solutions for widespread earbud use. This approach will soon provide unparalleled cardiovascular health insights, with the potential to substantially reduce the global burden of cardiovascular diseases."

Addressing Global Health Challenges:

The rise in hypertension and cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), affecting an estimated one billion people globally, underscores the urgent need for accessible monitoring solutions. The US11844618B2 technology offers a revolutionary approach to managing these conditions, enabling early detection and ongoing monitoring, essential for effective disease control.

MindMics’ Infrasonic Hemodynography (IH) technology, central to this patent, has undergone extensive validation against gold-standard medical assessments, including ECG, echocardiogram, and cardiac catheterization, at Scripps Health. The technology’s efficacy is demonstrated in our study on aortic stenosis, featured in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology (JACC): Case Reports. Additional research covering a wide array of cardiovascular diseases, including Mitral Regurgitation, Pulmonary Hypertension, Heart Failure, and Coronary Artery Disease, is reported at clinicaltrials.gov (NCT04636892). Furthermore, our technology’s capability to differentiate between Atrial Fibrillation (AF) and sinus rhythm, with accuracy comparable to gold-standard ECG, is documented in Nature Digital Medicine.

Innovative Technology Explained:

MindMics’ IH technology leverages low-frequency acoustic biosignals detected in the ear canal, using earbud microphones. This non-invasive method offers comprehensive monitoring of cardiovascular parameters, aligning with the rapidly growing earbud market. MindMics aims to capitalize on this growth by providing health metrics as a software solution, making advanced health monitoring widely accessible.

MindMics’ US11844618B2 patent represents a major advancement in cardiovascular monitoring technology. With its growing patent portfolio and robust clinical validation, MindMics stands at the forefront of transforming cardiovascular health monitoring, building accessible, efficient solutions for early detection and management of heart conditions.

Mexus Gold US to Raise Funds to Resume Trading

CABORCA, MEXICO / ACCESSWIRE / January 29, 2024 / Mexus Gold US (OTCQB:MXSG) ("Mexus" or the "Company) is pleased to announce its’ intent to raise $250,000 US, the estimated amount to pay for its currently outstanding but completed audits bringing Mexus back into compliance with the OTCQB exchange, paying for outstanding claim taxes, and general and administration purposes. The raise will be done by a private placement memorandum offering units in Mexus of one common share at $.005 per share US and a warrant for each share purchased, exercisable at $.015 per share of common stock for up to 24 months from issuance. There are no placement fees associated with the raise. The minimum subscription is $5,000.

Mexus plans to engage a recognized US 3rd party engineering firm to recommend and oversee QA/QC, along with a Certified lab in the Reno area, and report on the results of a to be planned 8 RC drill hole program with 100 meter depth holes resulting in an expected US SK-1300 SEC compliant inferred (or better) resource report in the area previously test mined by Mexus.

Mexus President and CEO Paul Thompson added, "In the past three years Mexus has opened three test pits with a gold average of 1.5 grams AU per ton of approximately 10,000 tons which were heap leached using carbon in pulp recovery at approximately 70% recovery producing $433,000 dollars US in audited gold sales. With the historical information, assays, and the test mining that has been completed we believe we can develop a resource in excess of one million ounces of gold. The Santa Elena is located near the huge Fresnillio Herradura open pit and on strike with that deposit. With the rising price of gold the timing could not be better and we feel the company has never been more undervalued."

Mexus is open to mutually acceptable opportunities with other mining companies.

About Mexus Gold US
Mexus Gold US is an American based mining company with holdings in Mexico. The fully owned Santa Elena mine is located 54km NW of Caborca, Mexico. Mexus also owns rights to the Ures property located 80km N of Hermosillo, Mexico. This property contains 6900 acres and has both gold and copper on the property.
