We’re building a wearable to track gut sounds and looking for people with gastroparesis
Hi everyone, we’re working on a wearable that tracks bowel acoustic signals (gut noises) to explore whether there are measurable patterns in gastrointestinal activity that relate to digestive symptoms over time.
The technology is currently being evaluated in clinical studies as we investigate whether continuous gut activity data could help improve understanding of symptom patterns in digestive disorders.
As part of this work, we’re looking to hear directly from people living with gastroparesis to better understand day-to-day challenges, symptom variability, and whether objective gut monitoring could actually be useful from a patient perspective.
We’d love to speak with people for a short 15-minute research interview to understand:
- How you currently manage your symptoms
- What you find most frustrating about about living with gastroparesis
- Whether objective data on bowel activity/sounds would be useful to you
We’re also opening access to our first beta testing group on a first-come, first-served basis.
If you’d be open to chatting or participating, please comment below or send me a DM, we’d really appreciate hearing about your experience.
Alternatively, we’ve also put together a short questionnaire here for anyone interested in sharing their experience and learning more about their gut health: Want to learn more about your gut health?
