Medibio Limited announced the official launch of its new mobile app to help measure, monitor, and manage stress, called LUCA. The first-of-its-kind biometric assessment tool measures sleep stress, activity stress, and cardiac stress, which will allow consumers to monitor their daily stress levels through their own personal wearable device and receive science-based learning modules to help manage their stress. As a critical first step in the mental health journey, LUCA helps consumers understand how one's own personality and emotional intelligence impacts how they cope with life's stressors, while leading them to manage stress before it escalates to more harmful mental health conditions. LUCA launches for applicable Apple Watch and Garmin smartwatch users. LUCA was developed by Medibio with over 20 years of clinical research, and has been granted a U.S. patent covering the method of monitoring stress using overnight heart rate activity. As a result, Medibio has developed a series of algorithms that measure sleep quality, heart rate, and physical activity to arrive at an overall stress assessment. In parallel, Medibio's neuroscience team identified areas of focus related to stress and developed a series of behavioral assessment tools to assist the user in understanding their stress and help them back to wellness. Removing the guesswork of measuring, monitoring and managing mental well-being: LUCA provides wearable device users with daily biometric feedback to track and monitor levels of stress in the body. It provides the user with an overall stress assessment, plus a timeline of three stress measurements based on Medibio's proprietary algorithms measuring stress associated with sleep, cardiac, and physical activity: Sleep stress: LUCA monitors sleep using data collected by wearable device and calculates a score once a day. Registering a low sleep score indicates are not getting quality sleep and should try adjusting schedule or routine. Cardiac stress: A higher cardiac score indicates are achieving a healthy heart rate and using energy above sedentary levels on a more frequent basis. Increased cardiac scores are associated with a healthy lifestyle including an appropriate heart rate during physical activity and increased energy use. Activity stress: A higher activity score indicates are achieving an increased intensity and duration of daily and weekly activity. Increased cardiac scores are associated with a healthy lifestyle including on a daily, weekly and ongoing basis.
