PERCHATKA no.19
PERCHATKA, the russian word for a glove,
is the next generation of allied healh accessories. It's designed specifically for those who suffer from panic attacks.
Using a smart cardiogram which is already availible on Apple watch and a simple oxygen saturation meter It's able to detact panic attack up to an hour before they accure.
Whenever the PERCHATKA detacts the attack, it lights a tiny bulb which goes on and off with a relaxing pulse.
The glove is made of second-skin like silicone material, which is casted in various textures. The act of touching the different textures allows the activation of the cortex of the patient's brain- which is in charge of the logical thinking. And so it enables the patient to avoid the attack before it accures.


The Neuro-science of PERCHATKA no.19

PERCHATKA is based on the scientific principle that connects the blood vescular system directley to the neuro system. Study cases showed that whenever an induvidual is under a panic attack, his sympathetic nervous system is activated into a danger mode, a "fight or flight" reaction, which triggers the attack. One of the most significant symptoms of panic attacks is the high heart rate-which also allows to detact the attack within an hour before happaning.
It's possible to avoid the rising of the heart rate by activating the cortex of the brain. The cortex is in related to the muscle activity and is activated by sight, hearing and touching. whenever the cortex is activatd, it allows relaxtion to the muscles, including the heart muscle. Whenver the pulse returns to a normal rate, the panic attack can't accure.
