What is BLIP?
BLIP is an early-stage start-up developing a wearable medical device designed to make seizure tracking simpler, more accessible and more reliable.
Working alongside a companion app, BLIP aims to capture and present real-time data providing valuable insights into seizure activity and helping users better understand their condition. By making this information more accessible, BLIP hopes to support more informed decisions surrounding the monitoring, management and treatment of seizures.
Seizure tracking presents challenges not only for patients but for parents, carers and clinicians. Gaps in reliable, consistent data can make it difficult to identify patterns, understand treatment outcomes and build a clearer picture of an individual's condition. BLIP is being developed to help bridge this gap.
There is power in data and BLIP wants to put some of that power back into the hands of patients.
Living with seizures can mean living with uncertainty and a loss of control. Finding the right treatment is often a long and challenging process. BLIP aims to empower individuals with greater insight into their condition giving them the tools to feel more informed, supported and involved in decisions about their own health.
Because understanding seizures is one step towards taking back control and shaping a more comprehensive approach to care.
‘Each day can be so different in regards to my seizures. Symptoms and episodes become a bit of a blur! Having a simple, easy way of tracking would help me so much. Some days it can feel so overwhelming trying to balance everyday tasks with seizure management. I think having a solid diary for episodes would give me a better sense of control and help me understand my condition better’
