Eyes become voice: new device lets ventilated patients talk without speaking
NCT ID NCT04582149
Summary
This study tested a wearable eye-tracking device called EyeControl to help critically ill patients on breathing machines communicate. The device lets patients answer questions and call for help by blinking or moving their eyes. Researchers enrolled 30 patients in intensive care to see if the device was safe, easy to use, and could help reduce the frustration of being unable to speak.
