Authors - Hector Rafael Morano Okuno Abstract - Mechatronics is an interdisciplinary field that draws on mechanics, electronics, and computer science. In recent years, the term biomechatronic has been used with increasing frequency; it is also a multidisciplinary field that in volves biological sciences and, therefore, bioinformatics. With the development of AI, bioinformatics provides data to biomechatronic systems, enabling appli cations ranging from agriculture to medicine. This article explores how bio mechatronics and CFD simulations can help monitor a person's health status. The objectives of this research were: 1) to determine whether, using biomarkers such as hemoglobin, fibrinogen, and low-density lipoprotein (LDL), among others, and CFD simulations, it is possible to obtain blood flow velocity pro files; and 2) to investigate whether the information from CFD simulations can be used to feed a biomechatronic system to monitor a person's health condi tions. Among the results, it was found that it is necessary to have models that allow relating the main biomarkers to determine the state of health of a person, as well as with suitable sensors to measure each variable according to the orien tation of the application that is to be developed, for example, for physical train ing or for the monitoring of nutrition.
