# G-Tech Medical

> G-Tech Medical builds the GutTracker, a thin wireless wearable patch its team calls an 'EKG for the Gut.' Worn on the abdomen for up to six days at home, the patch reads the faint electrical signals that drive the stomach, small intestine, and colon, then streams them over Bluetooth to the cloud, where algorithms turn the noise into patient-specific motility data. The Mountain View company aims to replace short, single-organ, in-clinic tests with continuous, whole-gut measurement so physicians can finally see how a digestive system actually behaves day to day.

## Products & services

- **GutTracker System (Wireless Patch System)** — A single-use, non-invasive wearable electrode patch worn on the abdomen that records myoelectrical signals from the stomach, small intestine, and colon for up to six days. Signals transmit via Bluetooth LE to a patch monitor and into the cloud, where proprietary algorithms quantify motor activity and produce patient-specific GI function reports for clinicians.
- **Cloud analytics platform** — Data-analysis algorithms and a proprietary patient database that correlate motility patterns with specific GI conditions to aid diagnosis and treatment decisions.
