X-trodes Receives Clearance for Wearable Skin Solution

X-trodes Receives FDA 510(k) Clearance for Wearable ""Skin"" Solution that Brings Medical-Grade Electrophysiological Monitoring to the Home

Overview

Next-Generation Skin Patch-based Monitoring Platform Enables Complete Freedom of Movement for Patients in Both Healthcare and Home Settings  X-trodes, a bio-convergence company bringing wireless monitoring solutions to the home environment, today announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has granted 510(k) clearance for X-trodes' Smart Skin solution (marketed as X-trodes System M), a new wireless wearable technology for advanced electrophysiological monitoring.  

About Skin Solution

• X-trodes' Smart Skin is comprised of customizable dry-printed multi-modal electrode patches. 

• It monitors a wide range of biopotential signals from anywhere on the body to acquire EEG (brain activity), EKG/ECG (cardiac monitoring), EOG (eye movement), and EMG (muscle activity) data. 

• The discreet patches are easy to apply and comfortable to wear, conforming to the body without requiring gels, wires or uncomfortable solutions.

Product’s Characteristics

• The FDA clearance follows successful completion of an extensive scientific assessment that evaluated the accuracy and consistency of X-trodes' system. 

• The study showed the performance of the X-trodes technology to be equivalent to that of FDA-cleared clinical electrophysiology devices in measuring EEG, EOG, EMG, and EKG/ECG signals.

Words from CEO

"The X-trodes system is the next generation of wearable and fully wireless solutions, enabling clinicians and researchers to unleash the full potential of medical-grade electrophysiological monitoring,"" said Ziv Peremen, PhD, CEO of X-trodes. ""Gaining FDA clearance affirms the value of this technology and its potential to improve health and wellness through access to real-time electrophysiological data. It will further shorten the path to commercialization for a range of clinical use cases."

Further Validations 

• Smart Skin is already available to researchers seeking unprecedented accuracy when measuring electrophysiological signals outside of laboratory settings. 

• Having achieved FDA 510(k) clearance, X-trodes will pursue further validations for a wide range of clinical use cases, with an initial focus on the cardiovascular and sleep monitoring markets.

X-Trodes VP on Their Advanced Solution

Despite an abundance of legacy and new medical device companies entering the market, there is still no single configurable remote monitoring system capable of supporting neurology and cardiology departments in providing the best possible patient experience and outcomes,"" said Dr. Deganit Barak Shinar, VP of clinical affairs at X-trodes. ""Our medical-grade multi-modal solution, which can be deployed across clinical departments and outpatient settings, including the home, has the potential to significantly improve the provision of care.

Advanced Distant Monitoring

• Electrophysiological monitoring has traditionally been restricted to clinics, requiring cumbersome hardware and controlled environments to acquire highly sensitive physiological signals. 

• X-trodes' Smart Skin encapsulates an entire monitoring lab into a discreet, flexible and completely wireless skin patch that provides continuous medical-grade monitoring in any environment that users may find themselves.

• X-trodes' technology is backed by more than 15 years of research at Prof. Yael Hanein's neuro engineering lab at Tel Aviv University and scientifically validated patents. 

• Its efficacy has been supported by several peer-reviewed studies published in leading journals, including Nature Scientific Reports and the Journal of Neural Engineering.

About X-trodes

• X-trodes has developed the world's first multimodality dry wearable technology for advanced electrophysiological monitoring and analytics that can be used by individuals in their natural environment. 

• The solution monitors EEG (brain activity), EOG (eye movement), EMG (muscle stimulation), and ECG/EKG (cardiac monitoring). 

• X-trodes technology operates like a smart skin – conforming to otherwise inaccessible areas of the body to provide a user-friendly solution that encourages compliance and generates reliable data. 

• The company's core technology is based on intellectual property (IP) developed over the last decade at Prof. Yael Hanein's nano-technology laboratory at Tel Aviv University. 

• X-trodes collaborates with leading global healthcare providers, biotech and pharmaceutical companies, and research institutions.
